orpheus descending...(espero que este não seja um excerto repetido...)

"All that time, all that lonely time, I felt I was- waiting for something!"
"What for?"
"What does anyone wait for? For something to happen, for anything to happen, to make things make more sense... It's hard to remember what that feeling was like because I've lost it now, but I was waiting for something like if you ask a question you wait for someone to answer, but you ask the wrong question or you ask the wrong person and the answer don't come. Does everything stop because you don't get the answer? No, it goes right on as if the answer was given, day comes after day and night comes after night, and you're still waiting for someone to answer the question and going right on as if the question was answered. And then, well, then... You get the make believe answer."
"What answer is that... Love?"
"That's the make believe answer, it's fooled many a fool besides you an' me..."
Orpheus Descending by Tennesee Williams

bom 2010

“Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.”

To see a world in a grain of sand
And heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour. William blake

Biografia de Francisco de Assis, ditada ao seu irmão

"Quando Clara se ausentou, Francisco disse:


- Não te admires do que vou dizer-te, irmão Leão, e escreve: Oh a mulher... é o mistério mais excelso da terra. Elas sentem o cheiro da morte, irmão Leão. As mulheres nasceram para dar vida, e onda ronda a morte, do corpo ou da alma, dos fundos mais primitivos elas tiram energias para se defenderem como feras. Sem a mulher, a Vida extinguir-se-ia. A mulher, irmão Leão, está sempre em contacto com a terra e a vida. E não te assustes com o que eu vou dizer: Deus por ser a fonte da vida, está mais perto da mulher, e a mulher mais perto de Deus. Elas, sem o saberem, são um pouco a efígie verdadeira de Deus. Recordo-me da nobre dama, madonna Pica... E agora não te escandalizes como que vou dizer-te e continua a escrever: Desde que conheci os mares profundos da minha mãe, madonna Pica, sinto sempre a tentação de invocar Deus com a palavra Mãe."
