#am

fico admirado quando alguém, por acaso e quase sempre sem motivo, me diz que não sabe o que é o amor. eu sei exactamente o que é o amor. o amor é saber que existe uma parte de nós que deixou de nos pertencer. o amor é saber que vamos perdoar tudo a essa parte de nós que não é nossa. o amor é sermos fracos. o amor é ter medo e querer morrer. ↗

On Time Kahlil Gibran You would measure time the measureless and the immeasurable. You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons. Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing. Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness, And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream. And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into space. Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless? And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless, encompassed within the centre of his being, and moving not from love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds? And is not time even as love is, undivided and spaceless? But if in your thought you must measure time into seasons, let each season encircle all the other seasons, And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing. ↗

There are two things the Lord gave man over the other creatures. He created the ability for man to think. The other is the ability to love. I thank Him daily for these gifts, along with all the other wonderful things He created. And I thank Him for sending you to me. ↗

Julie le ha dicho a Faye que cree que los amantes pasan por tres fases distintas cuando empiezan a conocerse bien. Primero intercambian anécdotas y gustos. Después se cuentan las cosas en que creen. Y luego cada uno examina la relación entre lo que el otro dice que cree y lo que hace en realidad. ↗

Bien différente eut été leur vie s'ils avaient su à temps qu'il est plus facile de contourner les grandes catastrophes conjugales que les minuscules misères de tous les jours. ↗

(..) la jeune fille leva les yeux pour voir qui passait devant la fenêtre et ce coup d'œil fortuit fut l'origine d'un cataclysme d'amour qui, un demi-siècle plus tard, ne s'était pas encore apaisé. ↗

Même lorsqu'il la guettait sans être vu, en ces jours d'anxiété ou il attendait une réponse à sa première lettre, il la voyait transfigurée dans la réverbération du début de l'après-midi, sous la fine pluie des fleurs de amandiers, là ou quelle que fut l'époque de l'année c'était toujours avril. ↗
