O da Joana

“Continents of memory had been lost.”
― Alan Lightman, The Diagnosis

“Two men who had never seen each other before and would not likely see each other again. But their sincerity and sweetness, their sharing an instant in a fleeting life. It was almost as if a secret had passed between them. Was this some kind of love? I wanted to follow them, to touch them, to tell them of my happiness. I wanted to whisper to them: 'This is it. This is it'".”
― Alan Lightman, Mr g

“If time and the passage of events are the same, then time moves barely at all. If time and events are not the same, then it is only people who barely move. If a person holds no ambitions in this world, he suffers unknowingly. If a person holds ambitions, he suffers knowingly, but very slowly.”
― Alan Lightman, Einstein’s Dreams

“Ricordo bene il suo sguardo.
Attraversa ancora la mia anima
Come una scia di fuoco nella notte.
Ricordo bene il suo sguardo. Il resto…
Sì, il resto è solo una parvenza di vita.”
― Fernando Pessoa
