Quote by João Víctor de Melo

“Princesa de Asturias Castela já não mais está, nem Leão, e me como maravilho com impérios a mui cristã Andaluzia aos martírios, a mui árabe Granada do sultão. Contra Aragão não pôde, Boabdil nem eleito povo, mais fosse ardil nem podiam os mouros Taifás mui santo foi Gregório já atrás. Tão forte Almóravides austral sumiu, tão bela donzela surgiu a castelhana a quem me apraz Asturias mílvio[ ]lábaro; a quem Afonso deixou sem pio. Santiago irmão do amado, foi achado foi a moça conquistada em Covadonga, foi meu amor, ó Munuza, em data longa. Ao longo do Douro vale, foi o Nunes, pelos celtas mui pagãos passou, pelos campos d’Ourique, foi Henriques.”

“Nick... I hope one day you find you a woman who loves you like my Melissa loved me. Whatever you do, boy, don't turn your back on her. If she says she needs you for something, don't matter how stupid it sounds or what deadline you got, you go to her and you do it. Screw work or whatever else. In the end, the only things that matter are the people in your life. The ones who make your life worth living and whose smiles light up your world. Don't ever push them aside for fair-weather friends. Everything else is just cheap window dressing that you can replace. But once them people are gone..." He winced. "You can't buy back time, Nick. Ever. It's the only thing in life you can't get more of, and it's the one thing that will mercilessly tear you up when it's gone. It takes pity on no soul and no heart. And all those fools who tell you it gets easier in time are lying dumb-asses. Losing someone you really love don't never get easier. You just go a few hours longer without breaking down. That's all... that's all. - Bubba”
