De que estará ele à espera? Do remador ou da tempestade? Suponho que espere o remador. Ninguém espera uma tempestade de forma tão plácida.

For light does the darkness most fear
"Hands", da Jewel
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small, I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
It didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn't ever after
We'll fight, not out of spite
For someone must stand up for what's right
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
There ours shall go singing
My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
I am never broken
In the end only kindness matters
(...)

Ambivalente
Susanna (Winona Ryder): I'm ambivalent. In fact that's my new favorite word.
Dr. Wick (Vanessa Regrave): Do you know what that means, ambivalence?
Susanna: I don't care.
Dr. Wick: If it's your favorite word, I would've thought you would...
Susanna: It *means* I don't care. That's what it means.
Dr. Wick: On the contrary, Susanna. Ambivalence suggests strong feelings... in opposition. The prefix, as in "ambidextrous," means "both." The rest of it, in Latin, means "vigor." The word suggests that you are torn... between two opposing courses of action.
Susanna: Will I stay or will I go?
Dr. Wick: Am I sane... or, am I crazy?
Susanna: Those aren't courses of action.
Dr. Wick: They can be, dear - for some.
Susanna: Well, then - it's the wrong word.
Dr. Wick: No. I think it's perfect.

Nas suas palavras, o meu sentir
(...) E penso que os livros são bons para a saúde, e também para o espírito, e que nos levam a ser poetas ou a ser cientistas, a entender de estrelas ou encontrá-las no interior da vontade de certas personagens, essas que às vezes, algumas tardes, se escapam das páginas e vão passear entre os humanos, talvez mais humanas elas.
De José Saramago, aqui.

Humor Woodyano
Carol (Diane Keaton): Acho que preciso voltar ao psiquiatra.
Larry (Woody Allen): Claro que não precisas. O que tu tens resolve-se com Prozac e um taco de pólo.

Vozes do Suburbano #1
A que gostava de crianças não tem filhos, a que não gostava tem dois.
Senhora mais velha a tentar demonstrar a jovem adolescente que não quer ter filhos porque não gosta de crianças, que a vida pode ser irónica.
Vozes do Suburbano
Nas minhas viagens de comboio quase diárias, quando não trabalho, não leio um romance ou não me enredo em pensamentos, escuto as conversas, aparentemente sem moralizar, como diria o Reininho.
