A vida ensina que o amor não se pede, não se implora, nem se espera. Aparece ou desaparece sem sequer darmos conta. O amor vive-se ou não. É tão simples quanto isto e nós que complicamos tanto, devíamos parar para pensar que ele não está nas grandes coisas, mas sim nas que consideramos erradamente insignificantes.
“Entre a crueldade para com o homem e a crueldade para com os animais, só há uma diferença: a vítima.” – Lamartin
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin’
We could dream this night away.
But there’s a full moon risin’
Let’s go dancin’ in the light
We know where the music’s playin’
Let’s go out and feel the night.
Because I’m still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I’m still in love with you
On this harvest moon.
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart.
But now it’s gettin’ late
And the moon is climbin’ high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin’ in your eye.
Because I’m still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I’m still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

(Neil Young)
“O valor das coisas não está no tempo que elas duram, mas na intensidade com que acontecem. Por isso existem momentos inesquecíveis, coisas inexplicáveis e pessoas imcomparáveis.”
Fernando Pessoa
Há estrelas no céu nocturno que brilham mais do que as outras, e quando olhamos para elas através de um telescópio apercebemo-nos de que estamos a olhar para gémeos. As duas estrelas giram em volta uma da outra, por vezes demorando quase cem anos para o fazer. Geram uma atracção gravitacional tão forte que não há lugar para mais nada à volta. Podemos ver uma estrela azul, por exemplo, e só mais tarde nos apercebemos de que ela tem uma anã branca por companheira – a primeira brilha tão intensamente, que na altura em que reparamos na segunda, é de facto tarde de mais.
Vacate, is the word.
Vengeance has no place so near to her.
Cannot find the comfort in this world…
“Se não consegues entender o meu silêncio de nada irão adiantar as palavras… Se não te atrasares demais, posso esperar-te por toda a minha vida.”
Oscar Wilde
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky
I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro’s hood
I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb ‘to trust’ and never let you down
I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I guess it never stops…
Força, Portugal!!
