Sentimentos em mim do asperamente dos homens das primeiras eras… As primaveras de sarcasmo intermitentemente no meu coração arlequinal… Intermitentemente… Outras vezes é um doente, um frio na minha alma doente como um longo som redondo Cantabona! Cantabona! Dlorom… Sou um tupi tangendo um alaúde! De Paulicéia desvairada (1922) Mário de Andrade Axé.
I would like this book and I think I should get hold of it. (I wish we had books in our own library.) But it would be very amusing to read. Axé.
I always said the problem I had after Reeducation was loss of voice. And earlier on, it had apparently been difficult to get one. Someone once told me that all those sore throats I used to get as a child–it was my stress reaction–were a sign that I had something to say that I was … More La voix
