Brothels Quotes - Page 3

• I'm trying to figure out how someone could live in a brothel for a month and not notice. You must be terribly dull-witted." Tessa glared.

• En su feroz y audaz determinación de ver de cerca la vida de los esclavos modernos, Benjamin Skinner me recuerda al abolicionista británico de hace doscientos años, Zachary Macaulay, que una vez viajó en un barco negrero a través del Atlántico, tomando notas. Skinner va a todas partes, desde los pasos fronterizos hasta los burdeles, pasando por las sesiones de regateo con los traficantes de seres humanos, para ofrecernos este relato vívido y mordaz de la amplia red de trata de seres humanos y servidumbre que se extiende por el globo actual.

• Palabras como pasión y éxtasis, las aprendemos pero se quedan planas en la página. A veces intentamos darles la vuelta, averiguar qué hay al otro lado, y todo el mundo tiene una historia que contar sobre una mujer, un burdel, una noche de opio o una guerra. Lo tememos. Tememos la pasión y nos reímos del amor excesivo y de los que aman demasiado.

• Así que seamos claros desde el principio: Esperamos reclutarle para que se una a un incipiente movimiento de emancipación de la mujer y de lucha contra la pobreza mundial, liberando el poder de la mujer como catalizador económico. Ese es el proceso en marcha: no un drama de victimización, sino de empoderamiento, del tipo que transforma a adolescentes burbujeantes de esclavas de burdel en empresarias de éxito. Esta es una historia de transformación. Es un cambio que ya se está produciendo y que puede acelerarse si abres tu corazón y te unes a él.

Pero si quieres salvarte -y recuerda que hay otra vida después de ésta- debes aceptar la corrección.
