Women don’t think with the heart, but with emotions. - Menotti Lerro

There is no day without darkness and night without light.

Remember that the sun doesn’t belong more to a man than to you. Never let yourself to be put in the shadow.

When I think of poetry, I like to think of it as follows: as the echo of a splash of the sea upon the shadows of those thousand-year-old rocks, that remember – after the continuous modeling of the wind and water – the shadows of the bodies of human beings. A splash capable of emitting a redeeming scent that, once smelt, we cannot live without. (Defining Poetry. From The Poetry of Menotti Lerro, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2011, p. 9)
