Meus filhos terão computadores, sim, mas antes terão livros. Sem livros, sem leitura, os nossos filhos serão incapazes de escrever – inclusive a sua própria história.
Bill Gates
I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.
Bill Gates
Sisyphus Start over… If you can, With no anguish, no rush. And the steps you take, On that hard path Of the future, Do take them freely. Until you achieve Do not repose. Of no fruit be content with half. And, never satiated, Go on gathering Successive illusions at the orchard. Always dreaming And realising, Awake, The adventure’s deceit. You are a man, forget it not! Madness is yours if yourself you lucidly see upon it.
Miguel Torga [1977], Diário: Vols. XIII a XVI. Lisboa: D. Quixote, [s.d.], p. 20. Translation by Sara de Almeida Leite.

Who would be so foolish as to die without having made at least the round of his prison?

I think, therefore I am
René Descartes - Discourse on the Method
… They don't know, nor do they dream, that the dream rules life, that whenever a man dreams the world jumps and moves forward like colored ball between the hands of a child
António Gedeão - Philosopher's Stone
Necessity is the mother of invention
Plato – Republic
Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!
Lewis Carroll - Alice Through the Looking Glass
Make no mistake, I only achieve simplicity with enormous effort.

I have in me all the dreams in the world.
Fernando Pessoa
Everything is worth it, when your soul is not small
Fernando Pessoa
1 There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens. 2 A time to give birth, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant. 3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build. 4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance. 5 A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces. 6 A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away. 7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak. 8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. Eclesiastes 3:1-8
Bible: NABRE
Que ninguém se engane, só se consegue a simplicidade através de muito trabalho.
Clarice Lispector (via blog-ppela)
No global, uma parte dos temas lêem-se na «diagonal» e outra parte em profundidade. Em resultado obtém-se temas fulcrais e outros descartáveis. Os temas fulcrais resultam necessariamente numa aparente «simplicidade». Poderá também ser este o processo de elaboração de sínteses.
É preciso correr muito para ficar no mesmo lugar. Se você quer chegar a outro lugar, corra duas vezes mais.
Lewis Carroll
«O ótimo é o inimigo do bom» - Voltaire
Trata-se de um tema bastante polémico. Eu própria considero que o mesmo é sistematicamente mal interpretado, e funciona regra geral como um sério entrave à busca pela perfeição. Em vários domínios, há muita gente que não gostaria de ver o bom substituir o ótimo. Por exemplo, ninguém gostaria de ser assistido por um médico/cirurgião bom em vez de um ótimo...
