Estranho

"To every place of entertainment we go with expectation and desire of being pleased; we meet others who are brought by the same motives; no one will be the first to own the disappointment; one face reflects the smile of another, untill each believes the rest delighted, and endeavours to catch and transmit the circulating rapture. In time, all are deceived by the cheat to which all contribute. The fiction of happiness is propagated by every tongue, and confirmed by every look, untill at last all profess the joy wich they do not feel, consent to yield to the general delusion, and, when the voluntary dream is at an end, lament that bliss is off with a so short duration."

" The man who makes an animal of himself takes away the pain of being a man. "

Dr. Samuel Johnson

Por vezes sinto-me uma besta pedrada envolto em nevoeiro.

Saudações e Abraço!
