Freedom

does not consist in any dreamt-of independence from natural laws, but in the knowledge of these laws, and in the possibility this gives of systematically making them work towards definite ends.

Friedrich Engels

Les gens qui doutent, de Anne Sylvestre

Deus dá o frio conforme o cobertor

Saudosa Maloca, de Adoniran Barbosa, 1951

por Elis Regina

Se criar é criar-se,
cantar é ser.

Emílio Moura, Itinerário Poético, 1969

Amor fati

Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.

Pope St. John Paul II; 1995 Homily in Baltimore, MD

[I'd say the two are the same, once we figure that out]

é o que mais nos limita enquanto seres humanos

a incapacidade de nos orientarmos dentro de nós

Os dias são longos mas os anos são curtos.

Gretchen Rubin, Projeto Felicidade

[roubado de parentalidadepositiva.com, Magda Dias]

I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.

D. H. Lawrence

Aquilo em que acreditamos é sempre maior do que nós. É o que dirige as opções de vida e que, assim sendo, nos constrói.

I don't think about being beautiful or not being beautiful. It's more about feeling confident inside you own skin really and thinking about yourself as little as possible.

Cate Blanchett

...o homem que sabe que o fundamental não é cada homem acreditar em Deus, mas cair na conta de que Deus acredita em cada homem.


Laurinda Alves, Euro 2016, em http://observador.pt/opiniao/a-nova-parabola-dos-talentos/

No man is an island,

Entire of itself,

Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.

John Donne, 1624

No greater battle in life than the battle between the parts of u that want to be healed and the parts of u content remaining broken.
Oprah Winfrey, 2016

Just point yourself in the direction of your dreams

Transition, Violet ft A.M.O.R.

colorful, witty, and a little dotty

Se puderes olhar, vê.
Se podes ver, repara.

Saramago, na contracapa do Ensaio sobre a cegueira

If we open a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we have lost the future.

Winston Churchill

Awareness is deeper than thinking.

Eckhart Tolle

A sopa de abóbora é boa, dizia ela, e ele, por amor, passava a sentir um bom sabor ao comer a sopa de abóbora.
