« I feel foreign, sometimes even considered a leper, only because I don't want to be or become the woman they want to make of me. I prove it by my anorexia. Look! Do you feel like I'm averse to my appearance? Good, it forces you to see that there's a problem, either at home or at home. You look away, you think I'm crazy. It hurts, of course, but being with you would be a lot worse. »

« Kafka's "fasting champion" explains at the end of his life that he stopped feeding because he could not find a food he liked. Anita could have uttered the same sentence, but only after her recovery, for it was at this time that she knew what food she needed, which she had been missing since childhood and which she sought: true emotional communication, without lies, without pseudo-"concerns", without feelings of guilt or reproach, without warnings, without croquemitaine, without projections. »
