O heart, O troubled heart

- William Butler Yeats

The Term

William Carlos Williams

A rumpled sheet

of brown paper

about the length

and apparent bulk

of a man was

rolling with the

wind slowly over

and over in

the street as

a car drove down

upon it and

crushed it to

the ground. Unlike

a man it rose

again rolling

with the wind over

and over to be as

it was before

If you really bug me

Then I'll say goodbye

- CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso

One is fun 

Tengo un millón 

why not two?

y quiero dos

- Madonna & CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso

Any number is fine with me

As long as it's more

Quiero más
Siempre quiero más

- Madonna & CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso

Lo que antes me servía no me sirve más

(...)

Tengo un millón y quiero dos

Tengo un ángel, pero quiero a Dios

- CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso

A verdade não é uma especialidade

Para especializados clérigos letrados

Não basta gritar povo é preciso expor

Partir do olhar da mão e da razão

Partir da limpidez do elementar

Como quem parte do sol do mar do ar

Como quem parte da terra onde os homens estão

-  Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen

The language

Robert Creeley

Locate I

love you some-

where in

teeth and

eyes, bite

it but

take care not

to hurt, you

want so

much so

little. Words

say everything.

I

love you

again,

then what

is emptiness

for. To

fill, fill.

I heard words

and words full

of holes

aching. Speech

is a mouth.

O amor é mais forte que a morte vocês diziam

Mas a vida é mais forte que o amor e

A indiferente mais forte que a vida 

- Michel Deguy

moody stricken Ahab stood before them with a crucifixion in his face, in all the nameless regal overbearing dignity of some mighty woe

- Herman Melville, Moby-Dick

Who’s over me? Truth hath no confines.

- Ahab, in Herman Melville, Moby-Dick

All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks.

- Ahab, in Herman Melville, Moby-Dick

all deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort 

of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea

- Herman Melville, Moby-Dick
