Eu quero alguém de carne e osso que me tire o sossego.

Alguém que me tire a paz, o sono, que me sacuda a alma.Quero alguém à séria. Quero alguém que seja por ser, mas que seja tudo. Tudo o que me faça perder o juízo, a fome, as palavras. Eu preciso. Hey tu, aparece. Desafia-me. Eu quero perder o ar. Preciso perder o controlo, Sentir a dor, quase morrer de amor. Estou cansada de inventar paixões que me façam sofrer por um dia. Não sou pessoa para sofrer por um dia. Quero sofrer, amar, e sofrer para sempre.
E quando o para sempre acabar, eu fico de luto.

The Notebook. *

Young Noah: It's not about following your heart and it's not about keeping your promises. It's about security.
Young Allie: What's that supposed to mean?
Young Noah: [yelling] Money. He's got a lot of money!
Young Allie: You smug bastard. I hate you for saying that.
Young Noah: You're bored Allie. You're bored and you know it. You wouldn't be here if there wasn't something missing.
Young Allie: You arrogant son of a bitch.
Young Noah: Would you just stay with me?
Young Allie: Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fightin'
Young Noah: Well that's what we do, we fight... You tell me when I am being an arrogant son of a bitch and I tell you when you are a pain in the ass. Which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. You have like a 2 second rebound rate, then you're back doing the next pain-in-the-ass thing.
Young Allie: So what?
Young Noah: So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, for ever, you and me, every day. Will you do something for me, please? Just picture your life for me? 30 years from now, 40 years from now? What's it look like? If it's with him, go. Go! I lost you once, I think I can do it again. If I thought that's what you really wanted. But don't you take the easy way out.
Young Allie: What easy way? There is no easy way, no matter what I do, somebody gets hurt.
Young Noah: Would you stop thinking about what everyone wants? Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do YOU want? What do you WANT?
Young Allie: It's not that simple.
Young Noah: What... do... you... want? Whaddaya want?
Young Allie: I have to go now.

Verdades.

A wise man once said you can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it. What he meant is nothing comes without a price. So before you go into battle, you better decide how much you're willing to lose. Too often, going after what feels good means letting go of what you know is right, and letting someone in means abandoning the walls you've spent a lifetime building. Of course, the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming, when we don't have time to come up with a strategy to pick a side or to measure the potential loss. When that happens, when the battle chooses us and not the other way around, that's when the sacrifice can turn out to be more than we can bear.

I need someone who really cares.
Life is too short to play silly games..
I've promised myself I won't do that again.

It's got to be perfect
It's got to be worth it
yeah.

Too many people take second best,
But I won't take anything less...

It's got to be perfect.

Young hearts are foolish,

They're much too eoger to give their love away.
Well, I have been foolish too many times...

Denise Hennessey: Oh, is that why? 'Cause I thought it was something different. I thought that it was 'cause I deserved the best and he's out there. He's just with all the wrong women. And let me be clear.

[The Notebook]

it's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts*

At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it's usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them. The people that are still with you at the end of the day, those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.

The story can resume. I will return. Find you, love you, marry you and live without shame.

Cecilia Tallis: I love you. I'll wait for you. Come back. Come back to me.

First Kiss.

For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something... to be with someone you can't get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere... a kiss so hot and so deep that you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. You don't want to. Trust me. When you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Viver é velejar nas incertezas.

Na minha concepção:

Não conhecemos uma pessoa antes de viajarmos com ela; de andarmos de carro com ela (assistindo à condução); de provarmos o que cozinha; de dormirmos (seja em que circunstância for!) e de vivermos com ela.
Pensando bem, acho que por mais que tudo isto nos aproxime do conhecimento de alguém, por revelar muito do que essa pessoa é, nunca se conhece ninguém por completo. Nem por metade.

A verdade é que tenho plena consciência de que já fui muita coisa, e mudei outras tantas. Pode dizer.se que ainda sou menina-mulher, mas uma coisa é certa: sou sempre EU. Muito mais eu. E cada vez mais e mais...

Quase.

Tenho pensado em quase-muitas coisas.
Tenho pensado em agarrar na máquina do tempo que tenho guardada (é um segredo quase só-meu) e usá-la para andar quase-para trás (se bem que noutros dias quero usá-la quase-para a frente).
Tenho quase-sorrido ao pensar no que quase-fizémos e quase ficado triste no que deixámos por fazer.
Penso nas quase-palavras, nas quase-frases, nas quase-lágrimas, nas quase-entregas.
"Nesta quase amizade quase nada faz sentido".
Hoje, enquanto sentia o calor do sol nas minhas costas quase-nuas e via o pôr-do-sol, quase senti vontade de te ligar e quase partilhar tudo isto contigo.
Quase...
(Talvez deva apagar os meus "quases". Guardo só um ou dois, os que quase me fazem falta. O que achas?)

Das (des)idealizações.

I... I used to make long speeches to you after you left. I used to talk to you all the time,
even though I was alone. I walked around for months talking to you. Now I don't know what
to say. It was easier when I just imagined you. I even imagined you talking back to me.
We'd have long conversations, the two of us.
lt was almost like you were there. I could hear you, I could see you, smell you.
I could hear your voice. Sometimes your voice would wake me up. It would wake me up
in the middle of the night, just like you were in the room with me. Then... it slowly faded.
I couldn't picture you anymore. I tried to talk out loud to you like I used to, but there was
nothing there. I couldn't hear you. Then... I just gave it up. Everything stopped.
You just... disappeared. And now I'm working here. I hear your voice all the time.
Every man has your voice.

New Year's.

'Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? It’s not on the calendar, it’s not a birthday, it’s not a new year. It’s an event, big or small, something that changes us. Ideally, that gives us hope, a new way of living and looking at the world, a way of letting go of old habits, old memories. What's important is that we never stop believing we can have a new beginning, but it's also important to remember that, amid all the crap, there are a few things worth holding on to.'

Querido Pai Natal:

Quero um coração novinho em folha pelo Natal.

[Dá para ser?!;)
É que este já está um pouco gasto..]

Asking too much.

i want somebody who sees the pointlessness
and still keeps their purpose in mind
i want somebody who has a tortured soul
some of the time
i want somebody who will either put out for me
or put me out of misery
or maybe just put it all to words
and make me go, you know
i never heard it put that way
make me say, what did you just say?

i want somebody who can hold my interest
hold it and never let it fall
someone who can flatten me with a kiss
that hits like a fist
or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall
if you hear me talking
listen to what i'm not saying
if you hear me playing guitar
listen to what i'm not playing
and don't ask me to put words
to all the silences i wrote
don't ask me to put words
to all the spaces between notes
in fact if you have to ask, forget it
do and you'll regret it
i'm tired of being the interesting one
i'm tired of having fun for two
just lay yourself on the line
and i might lay myself down by you
but don't sit behind your eyes
and wait for me to surprise you
i want somebody who can make me
scream until it's funny
give me a run for my money
i want someone who can
twist me up in knots
tell me, for the woman who has everything
what have you got?
i want someone who's not afraid of me
or anyone else
in other words i want someone
who's not afraid of themself

do you think i'm asking too much?

In general, lines are there for a reason.

For security, for clarity. If you choose to cross the line, you pretty much do so at your own risk. So why is it that the bigger the line, the greater the temptation to cross it? We cant help ourselves. When we see a line we want to cross it. Maybe it’s the thrill of the unfamiliar, a sort of personal dare. The only problem is once that you’ve crossed, it’s almost impossible to go back. But, if you do manage to make it back across the line, you find safety in numbers."

'(...)A coisa só está resolvida quando o teu coração encher outra vez. É como uma garrafa de sumo: só deixa de saber a sumo quando tiver outro sabor mais forte lá dentro..'

'Aproveita o sabor, nunca mais vais querer outro'.

'At some point, you have to make a decision.

Boundaries don't keep other people out, they fence you in. Life is messy, that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines that are way too dangerous to cross. Here's what I know. If you're willing to throw caution to the wind and take a chance, the view from the other side... is spectacular!'*

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Princípio.

Tenho para mim que não devemos nunca dizer mal ou alimentar e expressar ressentimentos (públicos ou privados)sobre alguém com quem partilhámos a nossa vida (relações amorosas, mais especificamente).

Ao fazê-lo, estamos, pura e simplesmente, a dizer mal de nós mesmos: se repararmos, houve uma parte de nós que se identificou com essa mesma pessoa e, 'a outra parte' do que somos, resulta também [quer queiramos, quer não!] duma obra e influência das vivências que tivémos com ela.

[That's the point!*]

And sometimes, despite all your best intentions, fate wins anyway.

The mexican [III].

Leroy: Don't you love him?
Samantha: I think that's the problem. We love each other too much.

The mexican [II].

Samantha: Real emotion transcends language Jerry. You don't have to understand their words to feel their pain.

The mexican.

Samantha: I have to ask you a question. It's a good one so think about it. If two people love each other, but they just can't seem to get it together, when do you get to that point of enough is enough?
Jerry: Never.

'Love.

may not make the world spin, but that's what makes the ride worth it'.

Das escolhas.

'Ok, here it is, your choice.. it’s simple, her or me, and i’m sure she’s really great. But Derek, i love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste on music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me'*

[in Grey's Anatomy]

'I count the number of words that have passed between us.

not very many. But I think about it'.

It's not brave if you're not scared.

'Talvez seja uma mulher fora do meu tempo.

porque continuo a esperar das relações amorosas um espírito de compromisso e de continuidade que já não reconheço nos outros...'

[mas é como dizia o outro: 'when are you going to realize that being normal is not necessarily a virtue?! It rather denotes a lack of courage!']

I know, for sure.

Who i am. How much i worth. What i need. What i want to give.
What i want for me and.. what i don't really really want.

'At the end of the day,

there are some things you just can't help but talk about. Some things we just don't want to hear, and some things we say because we can't be silent any longer. Some things are more than what you say. They're what you do. Some things you say because you have no other choice. Some things you keep to yourself. And not too often, but every now and then, some things simply speak for themselves'*

[in Grey's Anatomy]

'Could you show me dear,

something I've not seen? Something infinitely interesting..?'

[Could you?!]

Some things are true whether you believe in them or not.

É justo, isso.

I'll give you anything you ask for - as long as it's not something I don't want to give.

O perigo e o prazer.

muitas vezes, andam de mãos dadas.

Curses only have power when you believe them.

[Porque todas as situações nos remetem para alguma outra, nossa*]

ALEX: "You kissed me right? You kissed me and ever since, you've been avoiding me."
ADDISON: "Alex."
ALEX: "No, you've been avoiding me because you just assumed I want you. Or you just expect that everyone you look at sideways is pining after you, right? Has it even occurred to you that maybe I'm not interested?"
ADDISON: "You're not interested?"
ALEX: "You think I wanna be just another intern sleeping an attending?"
ADDISON: "You kissed me back."
ALEX: "You're my boss. I mean, what did you expect me to do? Look, Sloan's had me changing bandages all day, and I would way rather be scrubbing in one of your surgeries. And if you keep avoiding me, I don't get to scrub in, so stop avoiding me. [pauses] Look, it happened. But it doesn't have to happen again.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Tell me quando, quando, quando...

Trincamos sempre o caroço.

mas já nao saboreamos a cereja.

"Don't stop moving,

you must keep on going;
Don't you stop believing, you should go on dreaming;
Don't stop moving, you must keep on going;
Don't you stop believing,'Cause it's people like you make the world go..."

When it's real.

When it's right. Don't let anything stand in your way.

You can be anywhere when your life begins.

When the future opens up in front of you. And you may not even realize it at first, but it's already happening.

Sometimes you have to do the wrong thing.

Sometimes you have to make a big mistake to figure out how to make things right. The stakes are painful. But they're the only way to find out who you really are. I know who I am now. And I know what I want.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

There are moments.

Moments that in a split second your life changes forever, and before you know it... you're somewhere else'.

Obstáculos.

são aquelas coisas assustadoras que vemos quando afastamos os olhos do alvo.

[Hanah More]

'Sou a louca que sonha em ter o mar na pia

e as estrelas no céu da boca.'

[Janis Joplin]

'The early bird catches the worm.

a stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we haven't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to ‘seize the day'. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves like Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying'.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

She is everything you need that never knew you wanted.

She is everything you want that never knew you needed.

I'm not lying.

i'm writing fiction with my mouth.

Walk the Line.

Johnny Cash: I think it's about time, June.
June Carter: Time for what?
Johnny Cash: For you and me... to get married.
June Carter: Go to sleep, John.

Johnny Cash: You know what your problem is, June Carter? You are afraid to be in love, you are afraid of losing control, And you know what June Carter, I think you are afraid of livin' in my big fat shadow.
June Carter: Oh really? Is that what my problem is?
Johnny Cash: Yes.
June Carter: My problem is that it's 2 A.M. My problem is I'm asleep. I'm on a tour bus with eight stinkin' men. Rule number one: Don't propose to a girl on a bus, you got that? Rule number two: Don't tell her it's because you had a bad dream.
Johnny Cash: June.
June Carter: What?
Johnny Cash: Marry me.
[June glares]
Johnny Cash: Ok... Ok fine... but that's the last time i'm asking...
June Carter: Well, good. I hate reruns.

Johnny Cash: I want to marry you and I am telling you it's the time.
June Carter: Well I'm telling you with 100 percent certainty that it is not the time. It's not about time, it's not the right time, it's not even quarter to the right time.

Johnny Cash: You've got me all revved up. Now I've asked you forty different ways and it's time you come up with a fresh answer.
June Carter: Please sing.
Johnny Cash: I'm asking you to marry me. I love you, June. Now I know I said and done a lotta things, that I hurt you, but I promise, I'll never do that again. I only want to take care of you. I will not leave you like that dutch boy with your finger in the dam.
June Carter: [shakes head]
Johnny Cash: You're my best friend. Marry me.
June Carter: [quietly] All right.
Johnny Cash: Yeah?

Intimacy.

is a four syllable word for "Here's my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy". It's both desired&feared. Difficult to live with, and impossible to live without. Intimacy also comes attached to the three R's -relatives, romance, and roommates. There are some things you can't escape. And other things you just don't want to know.

So.

i drew a new face and laughed.

Momentos.

Este blogue.

é autobiográfico. Revejo.me, aqui. Em palavras e sentires meus e de outros, que consigo sentir e tocar como se de partes minhas se tratassem. É, por tantas vezes, um pedir emprestado.

[Os sentimentos e as emoções são sempre maiores do que a nossa capacidade de os verbalizarmos. É nítido, isso.]

Dentro de nós há o problema do ou e e.

Às vezes gostávamos que as coisas cá dentro fossem ou brancas ou pretas e os sentimentos estivessem, no coração, separados segundo as suas cores em gavetas diferentes. A vida seria muito mais simples. O problema é que, no coração, vem tudo misturado e cheio de es. Há coisas que parecem boas e são más, enquanto que outras parecem más e são boas. Uma pessoa, se não tem cuidado, engana-se.
Foi este o problema do Adão e Eva: a maçã era má e parecia boa. Ainda gostava, um dia, de conhecer o LABORATÓRIO DAS TENTAÇÕES, onde se inventa esta trapalhada toda. Se percebesse melhor o truque dos es talvez começasse a ser capaz de distrinçar os ous.
Não sei de onde vem esta agitação que nos atacou o coração e nos deixa como baratas tontas, sempre à procura da metade que não temos e do sítio onde não estamos. Há quem diga que é feitiço. Acho que, antes de nascermos, alguém nos segredou baixinho que é possível sermos totalmente felizes. E acho que este segredo bom é a culpa de que não nos contentarmos nunca com o que já alcançámos e querermos sempre mais.

A man does not fight because he hates what is in front of him,

but because he loves what's behind him'.

[Chesterton]

Just because you can't see something or someone,

it doesn't mean they aren't there.

Cenas de um casamento [porque mais vale tarde que nunca!].

'Look down the road to her wedding. I'm in a room alone with her, fixing her veil, fluffing her dress, telling her no woman has ever looked so beautiful'* [21.07.07]

O mundo é redondo.

Por isso aquilo que às vezes nos pode parecer o fim é afinal o princípio.

Closer [IV].

Dan: At six, we stand round the computer and read the next day's page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves...
Alice: Such as?
Dan: "He was a convivial fellow" - meaning he was an alcoholic. "He valued his privacy" - gay. "He enjoyed his privacy" - raging queen.
Alice: What would my euphemism be?
Dan: She was... disarming.
Alice: That's not a euphemism.
Dan: Yes, it is.

Closer [III].

Alice: Where is this love? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

Closer [II].

Dan: And you left him, just like that?
Alice: It's the only way to leave. "I don't love you anymore. Goodbye."
Dan: Supposing you do still love them?
Alice: You don't leave.
Dan: You've never left someone you still love?
Alice: Nope.

Até ao lavar dos cestos.

Ainda é vindima.

As we grow up.

we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.
You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.
You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.
You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.
You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.
So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Don't be afraid that your life will end,
be afraid that it will never begin.

[Obrigada, M.]

Closer.

Dan: I fell in love.
Alice: Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, "I can do this, I can give into this, or I can resist it", and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet you there was one.

Everything is a version of something else.

'The thing about plans.

is they don't take into account the unexpected, so when we're thrown a curve ball, whether its in the O.R. or in life, we have to improvise. Of course, some of us are better at it than others. Some of us just have to move on to plan B, and make the best of it. And sometimes what we want is exactly what we need. But sometimes, sometimes what we need is a new plan.'

[in Grey's Anatomy]

iLumina-me.

Gosto de ti como quem gosta do sábado,
Gosto de ti como quem abraça o fogo,
Gosto de ti como quem vence o espaço,
Como quem abre o regaço,
Como quem salta o vazio,
Gosto de ti como quem mata o degredo,
Gosto de ti como quem finta o futuro,
Gosto de ti como quem diz não ter medo,
Como quem mente em segredo,
Como quem baila na estrada,
Gosto de ti como uma estrela no dia,
Gosto de ti quando uma nuvem começa,
Gosto de ti quando o teu corpo pedia,
Quando nas mãos me ardia,
Como silêncio na guerra,
Beijos de luz e de terra,
E num passado imperfeito,
Um fogo farto no peito
E um mundo longe de nós.

Enquanto não há amanhã,
Ilumina-me, Ilumina-me.
Enquanto não há amanhã,
Ilumina-me, Ilumina-me.

[Pedro Abrunhosa]

Volta Verão.

e traz.me aquilo q este frio me roubou.

'Devolve-me a capacidade de respirar, prometo fazer-te nascer asas novas.'

'At the end of a day like this.

when so many prayers are answered and so many aren’t, we take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes, against all odds, against all logic, we touch'.


[in Grey's Anatomy]

'Thank you.

you made my mind up for me when you started to ignore me.
Do you see a single tear? It isn't gonna happen here.
If you're over me, I'm already over you. If you wanna walk, I'm a step ahead. If you're moving on, I'm already gone.
Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay?'

Saúde e paz.

o resto, a gente vai atrás!'

[Débora Secco]

Change.

we don’t like it, we fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But heres the truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Oh, sometimes, change is ... everything.
