Max Cady (Robert De Niro): "I am like God, and God like me. I am as large as God, He is as small as I. He cannot be above me, nor I beneath Him be. Selatius, 17th Century. "

Eça de Queirós

para sempre, eterno

 música: The Eternal, Joy Division

Procession moves on, the shouting is over

Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone

Talking aloud as they sit round their tables

Scattering flowers washed down by the rain

Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky
Try to cry out in the heat of the moment
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside

Cry like a child, though these years make me older

With children my time is so wastefully spent

A burden to keep, though their inner communion

Accept like a curse an unlucky deal

Played by the gate at the foot of the garden

My view stretches out from the fence to the wall

No words could explain, no actions determine
Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall

a saudade

É mais certo do que pensar em vão. Os olhos cansados do que vêm já não se predispõem à fraternidade que a culpa oferece e, assim, as mãos não são lavadas. O rosto já só recebe a brisa fresca das manhãs de Janeiro e o bafo quente da saudade. Porque o corpo cede. O corpo sempre cede. E és a melancolia de todas as noites minhas, o respirar de uma nova hora, a contagem decrescente para o nada, para o vazio que se espalma nas folhas do meu chão. Queria tanto saber dizê-lo, se soubesse o que realmente cá se passa. Mas eu digo "cá se passa bem" porque sou imune ao medo e aos laços que outrora me fizeram.

Johnny Rotten: “Do not stand in the middle, go to the right or to the left”

go it alone

I'm comin over
See me down at the station
By the lane
With my hands in my pocket
Jingling a wish coin
That I stole from a fountain
That was drowning all the cares in the world
When I get older
Climbin up on the back porch fence
Just to see the dogs runnin
With a ring and a question
And my shiverin voice is singing
Thru a crack in the window

I better go it alone

Down on the corner
See me standin
On a makeshift road
With the dust storm blowin
In a long black shadow
Pull a hammer from a coal mine
Down where your daddy was workin
Comb my hair back
Strike a match on a bathroom wall
Where my number is written
Drivin on the sidewalk
Lookin back and the sky is burning
In my rearview mirror

I better go it alone
