At least the ideas are immortal.



Nothing is immortal.

"Time fades even legend..."

Some things last more than others though, and I'm certainly not going to denounce propagating good ideas.

In portuguese there is a sonnet that goes

" (...) And I may say about love:

Let it not be immortal, seeing as it is a flame.

But let it be infinite while it lasts."

(Vinicius de Moraes)


Only as long as there are warm bodies to hold them.


"I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying. I don't want to live on in the hearts of my countrymen; I want to live on in my apartment."

- Woody Allen


Great quote, creepy guy.
