Leonardo Castellani
“El filósofo Santayana soñó una vez que veía pasar cuatro caballeros en cuatro caballos, negro, alazán, bayo, y el último era blanco. Los vio pasar empenachados y armados y les dijo:
-¿Adónde van?
-Vamos a libertar a los pueblos.
-¿Libertarlos de qué? -les gritó el filósofo.
El hombre coronado del caballo blanco le dijo:
-De las consecuencias de la libertad.”
Leonardo Castellani, Cómo sobrevivir intelectualmente al siglo XXI

Bruno Tolentino
“I. 92


Como um belo tornado a emoção vitaliza
o que vai demolindo - um rosto, uma paisagem,
Tróias inteiras ao redor... Mas, na estiagem,
enquanto o vendaval vai retornando à brisa,

a alma dá-se conta do que volatiliza
um coração: o ser vem sempre de passagem,
sempre de supetão entre o reflexo e a imagem,
e é impossível retê-lo porque ele não precisa

nem de que o amem nem de quem, buscando amá-lo,
mal consegue entrevê-lo. A crina de um cavalo
iluminada de repente pela lua

desaparece e a noite esquece-a e continua.
A beleza é fugaz porque é apenas um halo
e o ser uma nudez que não sabe andar nua.”
Bruno Tolentino, A Imitação do Amanhecer

G.K. Chesterton
“The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of Conservatives is to prevent mistakes from being corrected. Even when the revolutionist might himself repent of his revolution, the traditionalist is already defending it as part of his tradition. Thus we have two great types -- the advanced person who rushes us into ruin, and the retrospective person who admires the ruins. He admires them especially by moonlight, not to say moonshine. Each new blunder of the progressive or prig becomes instantly a legend of immemorial antiquity for the snob. This is called the balance, or mutual check, in our Constitution.”
G.K. Chesterton
