“Life is too serious to do farce comedy.”

"The first thing I did in the studio was to want to tear that camera to pieces. I had to know how that film got into the cutting room, what you did to it in there, how you projected it, how you finally got the picture together, how you made things match. The technical part of pictures is what interested me. Material was the last thing in the world I thought about. You only had to turn me loose on the set and I'd have material in two minutes, because I'd been doing it all my life.”

- Buster Keaton

Quinze Anos

Eu amo a vasta sombra das montanhas, 

Que estendem sobre os largos continentes 

Os seus braços de rocha negra, ingentes, 

Bem como braços colossais aranhas. 

D'ali o nosso olhar vê tão estranhas 

Coisas, por esse céu! e tão ardentes 

Visões, lá n'esse mar de ondas trementes! 

E às estrelas, d'ali, vê-as tamanhas!

Amo a grandeza misteriosa e vasta... 

A grande ideia, como a flor e o viço 

Da árvore colossal que nos domina... 

Mas tu, criança, sê tu boa... e basta: 

Sabe amar e sorrir... é pouco isso? 

Mas a ti só te quero pequenina! 

- Antero de Quental

Through a Glass Darkly

Artavazd Pelechian - Inhabitants 1970

A Masterpiece from the director Artavazd Pelechian. This documentary is more than just a movie... it's a statement! It's so profound it's meaning that i don't have actually words to describe what i feel while watching it... It's darkly beautiful!

David Oistrakh, Debussy - Clair de lune

I want to fall in love over and over again, with this song playing in the background...

Because i'm a lady, that's why.

Beatrix Potter

Concerning Foxes

I am yours for everything

To Elizabeth Barrett Browning:

...would I, if I could, supplant one of any of the affections that I know to have taken root in you - that great and solemn one, for instance.

I feel that if I could get myself remade, as if turned to gold, I WOULD not even then desire to become more than the mere setting to that diamond you must always wear.

The regard and esteem you now give me, in this letter, and which I press to my heart and bow my head upon, is all I can take and all too embarrassing, using all my gratitude.

- Robert Browning

To Robert Browning:

And now listen to me in turn.
You have touched me more profoundly than I thought even you could have touched me

- my heart was full when you came here today.
Henceforward I am yours for everything.

- Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Dream in our childhood

“We plan our lives according to a dream that came to us in our childhood, and we find that life alters our plans. And yet, at the end, from a rare height, we also see that our dream was our fate. It's just that providence had other ideas as to how we would get there. Destiny plans a different route, or turns the dream around, as if it were a riddle, and fulfills the dream in ways we couldn't have expected.”

- Ben Okri
