I will collect the evidence of your future conduct from what I know to be your opinions."”

“No humor, não se pode copiar o que o rival fez. Se tu abres uma hamburgueria lá na rua, eu posso abrir outra ao lado e roubar-te clientela. Quando um gajo inventou o pontapé de bicicleta, outros jogadores começaram a fazer o mesmo para chegar ao golo daquela forma. Já na comédia, se um colega teu fizer determinada piada, a piada é dele a partir desse momento e está-te vedada, o que pode ser altamente frustrante. Nada gera mais coceira num humorista do que ver outro comediante a fazer uma piada que ele acha genial, ao ponto de querer que seja sua. Ao contrário das fintas no futebol, não podes utilizar as dos outros jogadores. Aquela finta é do outro menino e só ele pode fintar assim. – Diogo Batáguas”

Our atoms would be released into the earth, air, water, and they'd find each other; even if it took a hundred years. One atom of her and one of me would mingle in a sun shot blade of grass and so we'd embrace again. And a millennium later we'd kiss in a raindrop seeding in a cloud. And after an eon wed be hugging tightly in the scale of a fish in the sea. It would be so forever.”
