Time... how fast it goes...





“Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own;
and from morning to night,
as from the cradle to the grave,
it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress.”

Charles Dickens

Good-humour and sensibility

"Good-humoured, unaffected girls, will not do for a man who has been used to sensible women.
They are two distinct orders of being."

Jane Austen


Why do I feel like I have dual personality?

Einstein's fashion advices

"Once you can accept the universe 
as being something expanding into an infinite nothing which is something, 
wearing stripes with plaid is easy" 

Albert Einstein

When I read this quote I smiled and immediately thought of this picture. I need to have a chat with mister Einstein!

Shakespeare -sonnet 116


Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
De almas sinceras a união sincera
Nada há que impeça: amor não é amor
Se quando encontra obstáculos se altera,
Ou se vacila ao mínimo temor.

Amor é um marco eterno, dominante,
Que encara a tempestade com bravura;
É astro que norteia a vela errante,
Cujo valor se ignora, lá na altura.

Amor não teme o tempo, muito embora
Seu alfange não poupe a mocidade;
Amor não se transforma de hora em hora,

Antes se afirma para a eternidade.
Se isso é falso, e que é falso alguém provou,
Eu não sou poeta, e ninguém nunca amou.
