In this ordinary swoon
as I pass from life to death,
I feel no heat from the cold, pale moon;
I feel no sympathy for breath.
Who I am and why I came,
I do not know; nor does it matter.
The end of every man’s the same
and every god’s as mad as a hatter.
I do not fear the letting go;
I only fear the clinging on
to hope when there’s no hope, although
I lift my face to the blazing sun
and feel the greater intensity
of the wilder inferno within me.

AH, Ensinar a vencer. Estão cheias as livrarias de todo o mundo de livros
que ensinam a vencer. Eu mesmo já gastei muita tinta!
Para vencer – nos negócios ou no amor –
três atitudes definíveis são precisas:
saber sonhar, planejar e inspirar.
Lembro um outro Fernando: da simples "vontade" vivem só os pequenos comerciantes; da simples "inspiração"
vivem só os pequenos poetas.
Saber sonhar,
planejar
e
inspirar é o segredo para grandes empreendimentos.
Simples assim.

Take what ever you are and what ever you have. Then burn it, and in that inferno forge yourself again. Same metal, new sword.... Now fight back for what ever you have lost.
