" O salteador

" É difícil manter uma atitude isenta de paixão, quando se faz uma crítica, quero dizer com isto que aquele que faz a crítica não deve sentir o espírito exaltado. Ter de se submeter a uma crítica tem algo em si que provoca uma grande satisfação, porque o criticado pode, muito facilmente, sentir-se lisonjeado, na medida em que se convence de que está a ser objecto da atenção de alguém, e isso é uma realidade. Para compreender isto, todavia, há que estar já um pouco familiarizado com regiões mais vastas do pensamento e que ter a capacidade de entender as conexões. Se começamos a falar seriamente, logo oito em cada dez pessoas se convencem de que nos estamos a despenhar encosta abaixo, por assim dizer, como se fosse um dado adquirido que só as pessoas alegres ocupariam o lugar de topo da inteligência, o que de modo nenhum é exacto. A alegria tem, na realidade, um grande merecimento, mas a alegria e a seriedade devem alternar uma com a outra de modo a que a seriedade conduza à alegria e a alegria conduza à seriedade, a delimite ou conduza perto dela.

Just Jack - Starz In Their Eyes

:d

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K72tfYdYROo

they'll be making sure you stay amused
they'll fill you up with drugs and booze
Maybe you'll make the evening news

And when you're tripping over your dreams
They'll keep you down by any means
and by the end of the night you'll be stifling your screams

Since you became a VIPerson
It's like your problems have all worsened
Your paranoia casts aspersions
On the truths you know

And they'll just put you in the spotlight
And hope that you'll do alright
Or maybe not

Now Why do you wanna go put starz in their eyes?
Why you wanna go put starz in their eyes?
so why you wanna go put starz in their eyes?
now why you wanna go put starz in there eyes
starz in their eyes?


Remember they said you'd show them all
Emphasise the rise but not the fall
And now you're playing a shopping mall

Your mum and dad they can't believe
What you appear to have achieved
While the rest of these users are just laughing in their sleeves

Since you became a VIPerson
It's like your problems have all worsened
Your paranoia casts aspersions
On the truths you know

And now the tabloids use your face
To document your fall from grace
And then they'll tell you that that's just the way it goes
That's just the way it goes

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story but they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines
And Saturday night's drunken dreams

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
Why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
So why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
Starz in their eyes?

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story but they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams


Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come from the dog and duck karaoke machine
And Saturday night's drunken dreams

Now why do you wanna go and put starz in their eyes?
It's the same old story well they just didn't realise
And it's a long way to come from your private bedroom dance routines
And Saturday night's drunken dreams
