feira do livro do porto: mini-guia para a edição de 2026

Acho que o primeiro motivo para ter guardado um lugar especial para a Feira do Livro do Porto na minha vida não tem a ver com livros. Quando me mudei para cá, a Feira foi a minha primeira visita sozinha enquanto torcia para que o Moovit não me engasse e tivesse mesmo de apanhar aquele […]

Quotes by Sofia Costa Lima (?)

“Tu vens. Sorris. Cumprimentas. Conversas. Pareces feliz. És simpático. Partilhas coisas comigo. Vais embora. Regressas. Afastas-te. Manténs-te distante. Aumentas a distância. Ages com culpa. Fazes-me sentir culpada. Pedes desculpa. Sorris. Voltas a parecer feliz. Voltas a ser simpático. Sentes culpa. Voltas a afastar-te. Voltas a manter-te distante. Eu aumento a distância. Eu sofro. Eu choro. Eu aguento. Eu converso contigo. Eu peço que voltes. Tu voltas. Manténs-te afastado. Eu peço que volte a ser tudo como era. Tu fazes-me a vontade. Tu voltas. Tu sorris. Cumprimentas. Conversas. Pareces normal. És simpático. Tu não partilhas nada. Eu tento esclarecer o que ficou por dizer . Eu perco a coragem. Eu tento manter-te perto. Tu ainda tentas manter-te um pouco longe. Eu abraço-te. Tu ages cauteloso. Tu recuas. Eu recuo. Tu pareces voltar. Eu tento ficar. Eu choro. Tu não sabes. Eu sei que entramos num ciclo vicioso. Eu tento conversar. Aguardo resposta. Tu pensas em afastar-te. Eu penso em afastar-me. A nossa amizade não costumava ser assim”

Sofia’s Quotes

“It's no accident, I think, that tennis uses the language of life. Advantage, service, fault, break, love, the basic elements of tennis are those of everyday existence, because every match is a life in miniature. Even the structure of tennis, the way the pieces fit inside one another like Russian nesting dolls, mimics the structure of our days. Points become games become sets become tournaments, and it's all so tightly connected that any point can become the turning point. It reminds me of the way seconds become minutes become hours, and any hour can be our finest. Or darkest. It's our choice.”
― Andre Agassi, Open
