Quote of the day

Se você não for melhor amanhã do que você foi hoje, então qual a sua serventia para amanhã?

XVII

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love, a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

Than this: where “I” does not exist, nor “you”,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Mistakes are, after all, the foundation of truth. If a man does not know what something is, it is an advance in knowledge to know what it is not.

Há lugares dos quais vou me lembrar por toda a minha vida, embora alguns tenham mudado; alguns para sempre, e não para melhor. Alguns já nem existem, outros permanecem. Todos esses lugares tiveram seus momentos com amores e amigos, dos quais ainda posso me lembrar. Alguns já se foram, outros ainda vivem em minha vida. Amei todos eles.

Não expressar tudo que se pensa; ouvir a todos mas falar com poucos; ser amistoso mas nunca ser vulgar; valorizar amigos testados mas não oferecer amizade a cada um que aparecer na sua frente; evitar qualquer briga, mas se for obrigado a entrar numa que seus inimigos o temam; usar roupas de acordo com a sua renda sem nunca ser extravagante; não emprestar dinheiro a amigos para não perder amigos e dinheiro; e por fim ser fiel a ti mesmo e jamais serás falso com ninguém!

Nós escolhemos o nosso próprio caminho. Nossos valores e nossas ações, eles definem quem nós somos.

My heart’s against your chest
Your lips pressed to my neck
I’m falling for your eyes but they don’t know me yet
And with this feeling i’ll forget, i’m in love now.

I became insane with long intervals of horrible sanity.

I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I’ve ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.

"I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best."

And I learned what is obvious to a child. That life is simply a collection of little lives, each lived one day at a time. That each day should be spent finding beauty in flowers and poetry and talking to animals. That a day spent with dreaming and sunsets and refreshing breezes cannot be bettered. But most of all, I learned that life is about sitting on benches next to ancient creeks with my hand on her knee and sometimes, on good days, for falling in love.

I’m nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there’s a pair of us — don’t tell!
They’d banish us, you know.

How dreary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!

The happiness of man is: I will. The happiness of woman is: he wills.

I’m not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of us will never be perfect. But if I can make you laugh at least once, cause you to think twice, and if I admit being human and making mistakes, hold onto me and give me the most you can. I’m not going to quote poetry, I’m not thinking about you every moment, but I will give you a part of me that I know you could break, my heart. Don’t hurt me, don’t mock me, and don’t expect for more than I can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when I make you happy, yell when I make you mad, and miss me when I’m not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.

One machine can do the work of a hundred ordinary men, but no machine can do the work of extraordinary man.
