POEMAS AOS HOMENS DO NOSSO TEMPO VI Tudo vive em mim. Tudo se entranha Na minha tumultuada vida. E por isso Não te enganas, homem, meu irmão, Quando dizes na noite, que só a mim me vejo. Vendo-me a mim, a ti. E a esses que passam Nas manhãs, carregados de medo, de pobreza, O olhar aguado, todos eles em mim, Porque o poeta é irmão do escondido das gentes Descobre além da aparência, é antes de tudo LIVRE, e por isso conhece. Quando o poeta fala Fala do seu quarto, não fala do palanque, Não está no comício, não deseja riqueza Não barganha, sabe que o ouro é sangue Tem os olhos no espírito do homem No possível infinito. Sabe de cada um A própria fome. E porque é assim, eu te peço: Escuta-me. Olha-me. Enquanto vive um poeta O homem está vivo.
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
Icebound Ship, by William Bradford, c.1880

“You walked, by chance, into a life I wasn’t proud of, and from that day, something started to change.” I breathed better, I hated less, I freely admired what was meant to be. Before you, without you, I adored nothing. That force, you once mocked, was never a lonely force, a force of rejection. With you, I have accepted more things. I have learned to live. That’s probably why i’ve always mixed my love with so much gratitude.“
-Albert Camus, Maria Casares Correspondence (1944-1959).
