Quote by Susanna Tamaro
Sewaktu kanak-kanak aku percaya pada cinta, sama seperti aku percaya pada peri. Namun pada suatu hari aku mencari di celah-celah kayu dan di balik tudung-tudung jamur. Dan aku tidak menemukan peri atau makhluk-makhluk gaib, hanya lumut, jamur, tanah, dan serangga...Serangga itu bukannya berciuman, melainkan saling memangsa
Summary
This quote illustrates the disillusionment of the speaker when they were a child. They initially believed in love and mythical creatures like fairies, similar to how they believed in love. However, as they grew older and explored their surroundings, they discovered that there were no fairies or magical beings hiding in the woods or under mushrooms. Instead, they found natural elements like moss, mushrooms, soil, and insects. The last sentence of the quote symbolizes their realization that the world doesn't always align with their innocent beliefs; instead, it can be harsh and filled with cruelty.
