"Η Μάγδα Λεμονιέρ κόβει από τις εφημερίδες λέξεις κάθε μεγέθους και τις φυλάει σε κουτιά. Τις οργισμένες λέξεις τις φυλάει σε κόκκινο κουτί. Τις λέξεις αγάπης, σε πράσινο κουτί. Τις ουδέτερες, σε μπλε κουτί. Τις μελαγχολικές, σε κίτρινο κουτί. Και σ'ένα διάφανο κουτί φυλάει τις μαγικές λέξεις. Συχνά ανοίγει τα κουτιά και τα τοποθετεί ανάποδα πάνω στο τραπέζι, έτσι ώστε οι λέξεις να ανακατευτούν όπως τους γουστάρει. Τότε οι λέξεις της λένε τι συμβαίνει, και τι πρόκειται να συμβεί."

-Eduardo Galeano, Mujeres

"Como também ocorre com os índios e os negros, a mulher é inferior, mas ameaça. "É preferível a maldade do homem à bondade da mulher", advertia o Eclesiastes (42,14). E Ulisses sabia muito bem que precisava prevenir-se do canto das sereias, que cativam e desgraçam os homens. Não há tradição cultural que não justifique o monopólio masculino das armas e da palavra, nem há tradição popular que não perpetue o desprestígio da mulher ou que não a aponte como um perigo. Ensinam os provérbios, transmitidos por herança, que a mulher e a mentira nasceram no mesmo dia e que palavra de mulher não vale um alfinete, e na mitologia rural latino-americana são quase sempre fantasmas de mulheres, as temíveis almas penadas, que por vingança assustam os viajantes nos caminhos. No sono e na vigília, manifesta-se o pânico masculino diante da possível invasão dos territórios proibidos do prazer e do poder. E assim sempre foi pelos séculos dos séculos."
