Colete de Forças

"Sometimes I think we live through things only to be able to say that it happened. That it wasn't to someone else, it was to me. Sometimes we live to beat the odds. I'm not crazy even though they thought I was. I live in the same world as everyone else. I just saw more of it, as I'm sure you have. They'll find my body tomorrow. You can check it out if you don't believe me. I've seen life after my death, and I'm telling you this because it's the only way to help you and your daughter have a better life of your own. Jean, you're gonna pass out one day smoking a cigarette and burn to death. Your daughter grows up living the same life you're living right now. And she misses you so much. Sometimes life can only really begin with the knowledge of death. That it can all end, even when you least want it to. The important thing in life is to believe that while you're alive, it's never too late. I promise you, Jean, no matter how bad things look, they look better awake than they do asleep. When you die, there's only one thing you want to happen. You wanna come back."

Atingir

Quase o amor, quase o triunfo e a chama,
Quase o principio e o fim – quase a expansão ... (Mário Sá-Carneiro)

Sorry

Love means never having to say you're sorry.

Sim, há quem diga que amar significa nunca ter de pedir desculpa.

Noite e dia

At sixteen Sabina took moon-baths, first of all because everyone else took sun-baths, and second, she admitted, because she had been told it was dangerous. The effect of moon-baths was unknown, but it was intimated that it might be the opposite of the sun's effect.

"The first time she exposed herself she was frightened. What would the consequences be? There were many taboos against gazing at the moon, many old legends about the evil effects of falling asleep in moonlight. She knew that the insane found the full moon acutely disturbing, that some of them regressed to animal habits of howling at the moon. She knew that in astrology the moon ruled the night life of the unconscious, invisible to conscious.

"But then she had always preferred the night to the day.

"Moonlight fell directly over her bed in the summer. She lay naked in it for hours before falling asleep, wondering what its rays would do to her skin, her hair, her eyes, and then deeper, to her feelings.

"By this ritual it seemed to her that her skin acquired a different glow, a night glow, an artificial luminousness which showed its fullest effulgence only at night, in artificial light. People noticed and asked her what was happening."

Anaïs Nin, from A Spy in the House of Love

Cabe sim

Cabe sim.
E mesmo quando se movimenta ou inicía aquelas danças loucas de ritmos inventados, não deixa de caber.
E de botões fechados, fecham-se os sonhos em conjunto e come-se
e bebe-se o sorriso do "quero conhecer-te por toda a eternidade".
É verdade...
E é ali que cabe toda a eternidade.
