estava eu a ver extras de DVD...

So he called me sir. Big deal! I mean... Look, look. What does that mean? What are the implications that after all... that in the eyes of this young kid - couldn't have been... What? 20, 25? - I seemed old? Hey, I can accept that. As people get older they become wiser, more mature. That hasn't happened to me but... You never know. And listen... Parents! You know, you get less of them. Mine are dead. I never have to call them. No more boring sunday dinners. Even my friends are starting to die. And you know, that's alright. Eliminate the dead weight, see. Pair it down to basics. That's how you know who your real friends are. They're the ones that are living. Right? Am I right or am I right, huh, friend?

Monólogo de Jeff Goldblum, duma cena cortada da versão final

Enquanto via estas cenas, estes extras, apercebi-me duma coisa, que acabei por ter que ir confirmar: os actores deste elenco maravilhoso tinham a minha idade, quando o filme saiu.

Eram personagens maduros, cheios de responsabilidades. Começava-lhes a pesar a idade. As pessoas que conheciam começavam a morrer. Eram crescidos.

Pelo menos é como os via, quando descobri o filme há demasiado tempo. Afinal...

finalmente um momento brilhante em New Girl

Jess - What's going on? Why is the cast of the Social Network in our apartment?
Nick - Dirk is a genius! 20-year-old girls - they think I'm awesome! And look at 'em! They don't know what Saved by the Bell is and they've never felt pain.

And, Hank, you might consider smiling more often. Got me a little wet.

Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained (William Blake)

Um agradecimento à MF, que nunca vai ler isto, mas foi quem mostrou-me a citação.
(Vêem como não é difícil?)

citação

Não se pode ir com gaijas à praia. Ficam sempre com frio no final do dia e obrigam-te a vir embora. Há aquelas especiais, que levam roupa de propósito, porque sabem que o final do dia é a tua parte preferida. Só que essas são raras.

claro que não li o livro! tirei dum filme, naturalmente

I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness.
A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them. And work which one hopes may be of some use.
Then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor. Such is my idea of happiness.
And then, on top of all that, you for a mate, and children perhaps.
What more can the heart of a man desire?

de Tolstoy, tirado de Family Happiness

porque há coisas que não me saiem da cabeça

Dear Karen,

If you're reading this, it means I actually worked up the courage to mail it. So, good for me.
You don't know me very well but you get me started, I have a tendency to go on and on about how hard the writing is for me.
But this... this is the hardest thing I've ever had to write.
There's no easy way to say this, so I'll just say it.

I met someone.

It was an accident. I wasn't looking for it. It wasn't on the make.
It was a perfect storm. She said one thing. I said another. Next thing I knew, I wanted to spend the rest of my life in the middle of that conversation.
Now there's this feeling in my gut.
She might be the one.
She's completely nuts... in a way that makes me smile -- highly neurotic.
A great deal of maintenance required.

She is you, Karen.

That's the good news. The bad is that I don't know how to be with you right now. And it scares the shit out of me. Because if I'm not with you right now, I have this feeling we'll get lost out there.
It's a big, bad world full of twists and turns, and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment... the moment that could've changed everything.

I don't know what's going on with us, and I can't tell you why you should waste a leap of faith on the likes of me... but, damn, you smell good -- like home.
And you make excellent coffee.
That's got to count for something, right?

Call me.

Unfaithfully yours,
Hank Moody.

(...) I met someone.
