| 590d79f | Aqui, na maioria dos casos, desvanecia-se toda a logica e vencia o SS, endoidecia o SS, escumava o SS, ria o SS, ameacava o SS, e nao conhecia perdao. Eram malabaristas de leis, comedores de letras de decretos-lei, devoradores de acusados(...) Eram excepcao alguns poucos senhores(...) que nao levavam a lei tanto a serio(...) Foi a um desses senhores que levaram Svejk para interrogatorio. Um homem ja de certa idade e de aspecto bondoso que e.. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||
| 3f311c8 | Quem se poe com conversas de duplo sentido tem de pensar primeiro no que se esta a meter. Uma pessoa recta que fala conforme lhe cresceu o bico raramente leva no trombil. E se ja levou uma data de vezes, tanto mais se poe a pau, e na duvida fecha a cloaca em publico. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||
| 85dc365 | Ja estou farto disto - exclamou o segundo cabo. - Entao e um homem feliz - disse Svejk. - Algumas pessoas nunca se fartam. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||
| 78f756d | Nao leves o teu servidor a julgamento, pois nenhum homem se justificara perante ti se nao lhe concederes o perdao de todos os seus pecados, pelo que te rogo que nao lhe tornes muito pesado o teu veredicto.

| 4fd5a9f | O orgulho antecede a queda. Toda a gloria e efemera. Icaro queimou as asas. O ser humano gostava de ser um gigante - mas e o caralho, camarada. Nao ha que acreditar no acaso e dar-se estalos de manha e a noite para se lembrar que o cuidado nunca e de mais, e que o que e de mais faz mal. Depois de bacanais e orgias, vem sempre a ressaca moral. E uma lei da natureza, meu caro amigo. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||
| d94cc6d | uma vez li, declaro obedientemente, que houve uma grande batalha em que tombou um rei sueco juntamente com o seu fiel cavalo. Levaram as duas carcacas para a Suecia, e agora os dois cadavares estao empalhados num museu em Estocolmo. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||

| e073047 | Nao ha nada pior para se trabalhar que um povo como o daquelas bandas, que nao sabe ler nem escrever e so assina com tres cruzinhas, o que a nossa intendencia sabia muito bem, de forma que, quando mandavamos ir buscar dinheiro a intendencia, nao podiamos anexar recibos falsificados em como eu lhes tinha entregado dinheiro em pagamento, coisa que so se pode fazer naqueles locais onde o povo e mais culto e sabe assinar o seu nome. | Jaroslav Hašek | ||

| d89b04a | Michael Crichton once commented . . . It did not take long before the scientists began to notice that complex systems showed certain common behaviors. They started to think of these behaviors as characteristic of all complex systems. They realized that these behaviors could not be explained by analyzing the components of the systems.

Thirty people, and nothing happens. Thirty million, it becomes impossible. That's the effect of mass media--it keeps anything from happening. Mass media swamps diversity. It makes every place the same. Bangkok or Tokyo or London: there's a McDonald's on one corner, a Benne.. | Michael Crichton | ||
| 6883778 | After all, the trouble with what the scientists said was that they were always saying something different. This year one idea, next year something else. Scientific opinion was ever changing, like the fashions of women's dress, while the firm and fixed date 4004 BC invited the attention of those seeking greater verity. | Michael Crichton | ||
| 8ead006 | Other animals fight for territory or food; but, uniquely in the animal kingdom, human beings fight for their 'beliefs.' The reason is that beliefs guide behavior, which has evolutionary importance among human beings. But at a time when our behavior may well lead us to extinction, I see no reason to assume we have any awareness at all. | Michael Crichton | ||

| a4fe095 | Si una cosa va mal, tiende a seguir mal. Eso se refleja en el dicho popular que afirma que las desgracias nunca vienen solas.

They strolled arm in arm, like lovers, along the embankment. They passed the houseboat restaurants tied up to the side, brightly lit, still busy with guests. Above them, on the other side of the river, rose Notre Dame, brilliantly lit. For a while, this slow walk, with he.. | Michael Crichton | ||
