Ah! Happy they whose hearts can break
And peace of pardon win!
How else may man make straight his path
And cleanse his soul from sin?
How else but through a broken heart
May the Lord Christ enter in?

Go to quote


A vida não se governa pela vontade ou pelas intenções. É uma questão de nervos, de fibras, de células lentamente elaboradas, onde se oculta o pensamento e onde as paixões têm seus sonhos. Tu podes te acreditar salvo e forte; mas um tom de cor entrevisto no aposento, um céu matinal, um certo perfume que amaste e te desperta sutis recordações, um verso de um poema esquecido que te volta à memória, uma frase musical que não tocas mais, é de tudo isto, Dorian, asseguro-te, que depende a nossa existência.

Oscar Wilde
