Revolutionary law number one, " someone said. "Capitalism has cheated us. Books are not to be bought, they are to be repossessed."" This is robbery, " I said. "Let's not kid ourselves. And don't do that to me again. You scared me to death."" It's not robbery. Books are ideas. They should be able to circulate freely within society. At no price at all, or for pennies. Knowledge is universal. It belongs to all of us.Gioconda Belli

Sexuality surrounds us like a dangerous aura. The same reverence that is given to the spirit is not given to the flesh. We have had a sexual revolution, but the sexual revolution only has made sex more pervasive. It hasn't granted the level of reverence and respect that it should have.Gioconda Belli

I had a very good sexual education. My mother was very advanced in that regard. She conveyed to me the sense of reverence and wonder about my body and the powers of my sexuality not only to give life, but also to be a whole person and to enjoy pleasure. It was put to me as an almost holy act.Gioconda Belli
