Recomendado
Homenagem a meu caro amigo Alfredo Brant e seu novo trabalho "Recommended by Lonely People".
"What is necessary, after all, is only this: solitude, vast inner solitude. To walk inside yourself and meet no one for hours — that is what you must be able to attain. To be solitary as you were when you were a child, when the grown-ups walked around involved with matters that seemed large and important because they looked so busy and because you didn’t understand a thing about what they were doing. And when you realize that their activities are shabby, that their vocations are petrified and no longer connected with life, why not then continue to look upon it all as a child would, as if you were looking at something unfamiliar, out of the depths of your own solitude, which is itself work and status and vocation? Why should you want to give up a child’s wise not-understanding in exchange for defensiveness and scorn, since not-understanding is, after all, a way of being alone, whereas defensiveness and scorn are participation in precisely what, by these means, you want to separate yourself from." (Letters to a Young Poet, Rainer Maria Rilke)

Feliz aniversário, Galo!
105 anos de amor dos quais participei diretamente de 31, incondicionalmente, na alegria e na tristeza. Somados aos 80 transmitidos por meu avô, cobri com sobra a história de glórias deste clube.

Bom humor e pensamento positivo
"The amount of noise which anyone can bear undisturbed stands in inverse proportion to his mental capacity." Arthur Schopenhauer (1788 - 1860)

Liberdade
"(...)
Ni temo al poderoso
Ni al rico lisonjeo,
Ni soy camaleón del que gobierna,
Ni me tiene envidioso
La ambición y deseo
De ajena gloria ni de fama eterna;
Carne sabrosa y tierna,
Vino aromatizado,
Pan blanco de aquel día,
En prado, en fuente fría,
Halla un pastor con hambre fatigado;
Que el grande y el pequeño
Somos iguales lo que dura el sueño."
(Canción, Lope de Vega)
