“On me parle de progrès, de “réalisations”, de maladies guéries, de niveaux de vie élevés au-dessus d’eux-mêmes. Moi, je parle de sociétés vidées d’elles-mêmes, des cultures piétinées, d’institutions minées, de terres confisquées, de religions assassinées, de magnificences artistiques anéanties, d’extraordinaires possibilités supprimées. On me lance à la tête des faits, des statistiques, des kilométrages de routes, de canaux, de chemin de fer. Moi, je parle de milliers d’hommes sacrifiés au Congo-Océan. Je parle de ceux qui, à l’heure où j’écris, sont en train de creuser à la main le port d’Abidjan. Je parle de millions d’hommes arrachés à leurs dieux, à leur terre, à leurs habitudes, à leur vie, à la danse, à la sagesse. Je parle de millions d’hommes à qui on a inculqué savamment la peur, le complexe d’infériorité, le tremblement, l’agenouillement, le désespoir, le larbinisme.”

English :

“They tell me about progress, about “realisations”, cured illnesses, about a quality of life raised above itself.

I speak from societies emptied from themselves, trampled cultures, undermined institutions, confiscated lands, assassinated religions, shattered artistic wonders, extraordinary possibilities annihilated.

They hurl facts, statistics, road, canals, railroad mileages at me.

I speak from thousands of men sacrificed to the Congo-Ocean railway. I speak from those who, as I write, are digging by hand the port of Abidjan. I speak from millions of men torn away from their gods, their habits, their life, their dance, their wisdom.

I speak from millions of men who were taught fear, inferiority complex, quaking, kneeling, despair, how to serve & defer.”

“Keep Going. Your hardest times often lead to the greatest moments of your life. Keep going. Tough situations build strong people in the end.”

Os Japoneses dizem que você tem três faces. A primeira face você mostra pro mundo. A segunda face você mostra para os seus amigos mais próximos e familiares.A terceira face, você nunca mostra pra ninguém. É o reflexo mais verdadeiro de quem você é.

We often want it so badly that we ruin it before it begins. Overthinking. Fantasizing. Imagining. Expecting. Worrying. Doubting. Just let it naturally evolve.
