Ostrakova

«Lembrou-se de julgamentos a que os dois haviam assistido como espectadores indesejados. Julgamentos de amigos, ainda que amigos por acidente: pessoas que haviam posto em questão o direito absoluto das autoridades; ou que tinham adorado um qualquer deus inaceitável; ou que haviam criminosamente pintado arte abstracta; ou que haviam publicado poemas de amor politicamente perigosos.»
John Le Carré, in A Gente de Smiley

Insight

Guess your dreams always end
They don't rise up just descend
But I don't care anymore
I've lost the will to want more
I'm not afraid not at all
I watch them all as they fall
But I remember when we were young
Those with habits of waste
Their sense of style and good taste
Of making sure you were right
Hey don't you know you were right?
I'm not afraid anymore
I keep my eyes on the door
But I remember
Tears of sadness for you
More upheaval for you
Reflects a moment in time
A special moment in time
Yeah, we are wasted our time
We didn't really have time
But we remember when we were young
And all of God's angels beware
And all you judges beware
Sons of chance, take good care
For all the people not there
I'm not afraid anymore

Oh, I'm not afraid anymore
Ian Curtis
