Quote by Afonso Cruz

“A nossa meta, muitas vezes, não está onde pensamos. Pode estar à beira da estrada, pode estar a meio do caminho, no meio de uma praça, e seria um desperdício se passássemos por ela a correr, se passássemos ao seu lado sem a vermos. E assim continuaríamos a correr para lado nenhum, para uma ilusão. Havia uma grande virtude na lebre: ela sabia viver.”

“When visions come to us in the night, they are called dreams. The very movement of history seems to be directed by the conception of these dreams and efforts to realize them. How we conceive of the future, in other words, is of utmost importance to our collective destiny.”

“The child who is decked with prince’s robes and who has jewelled chains round his neck loses all pleasure in his play; his dress hampers him at every step. In fear that it may be frayed, or stained with dust he keeps himself from the world, and is afraid even to move. Mother, it is no gain, thy bondage of finery, if it keep one shut off from the healthful dust of the earth, if it rob one of the right of entrance to the great fair of common human life.”
