"Non ti conosco e non so cosa è successo nella tua vita. Ma quello che voglio dirti è che vale la pena raccontare alcuni segreti. Altrimenti ti avvelenano come la chemioterapia... ti scavano dall'interno. Devi parlare, anche se solo con un cane che sai che non ti giudicherà. Ma hai molte persone amichevoli qui intorno - ognuna ha attraversato il suo personale inferno - neanche loro ti giudicheranno."-Lauren Beukes, Afterland
