Happy Birthday TO Me!
“Eleven”
Sandra Cisneros

Existen derrotas. Pero nadie esta a salvo de ellas. Por eso, es mejor perder algunos combates en la lucha por nuestros sueños que ser derrotado sin siquiera saber por que se esta luchando.

#5 To Be a Woman
“All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.”

#2 Love in the Time of Cholera
“He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.”
― Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera
