we all despise ourselves
Calvero: We're all grubbing for a living, the best of us. All a part of the human crusade, written in water (...)Yes, life can be wonderful if you're not afraid of it. All it needs it's courage, imagination... and a little dough.
Terry: (cries)
Calvero: Now, what's the matter?
Terry: I'll never dance again! I'm a cripple
Calvero: Pure hysteria! It's in your mind
Terry: It isn't true
Calvero: Otherwise you'd fight!
Terry: What is there to fight for?
Calvero: Ah, you see? You admit it... What is there to fight for? Everything! Life itself! Isn't that enough? To be lived, suffered, enjoyed! What is there to fight for? Life is a beautiful, magnificent thing! Even to a jellyfish!
What is there to fight for? You have your art, your dancing!
Terry: But i cannot dance without legs!
Calvero: I know a man without arms, who can play a scherzo on a violin and does it all with his toes. The trouble is you won't fight. You've given in. Continually dwelling on sickness and death! But, there's something just as inevitable as death, and that's life: Life, life, life!
Think of the power that's in the universe! Moving the earth, growing the trees! And that's the same power within you. If you'd only have courage and the will to use it!
Good night

"querer es poder".... pero siempre que nos lo miramos desde el punto de vista de quien no tiene el problema... no? entonces todo es facil!

Es como cuando se quiere con el corazón abierto en canal y en dos mitades.
Como te quiero yo a ti, pequeñita.
PD: Disfrutad mucho a Iván el viernes por mí, jooo. ¡Qué envidia! Pero ya queda menos para que ande por ahí dando la vara ; )
it's beautiful...very beautiful...

La cuestión es por qué no luchar. ¡Qué cosas! A veces me da la sensación de que hemos crecido en un mundo demasiado fácil y que no sabemos lo que es querer algo con tanta fuerza que no tengas ni tiempo ni espacio para lamentar que no lo alcances. Los sueños no son sueños por imposibles, sino porque se pueden conseguir. Sólo hay que echar mano de un mapa y seguir los caminos. O crearlos...
truth is, life ain't beautiful at all, which in the end makes beautiful things even more beatiful, and causes worth fighting for even beter. Nevertheless, a delightful quotation. Cheers ginger.
Chaplin es un genio.
Tú también.
Un abrazo-pirata.
