Mais Chesterton

A respeito do nonsense, esbarrei nisso aqui:

"There are two ways of dealing with nonsense in this world. One way is to put nonsense in the right place; as when people put nonsense into nursery rhymes. The other is to put nonsense in the wrong place; as when they put it into educational addresses, psychological criticisms, and complaints against nursery rhymes or other normal amusements of mankind." (G. K. Chesteron, Child Psychology and Nonsense, 15 October 1921)


Obrigado, Gilbert!

Outra frase muito boa dele...

"Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese"

na verdade a melhor eh sobre dragoes e contos de fadas, mas eu com certeza quotaria errada aqui.

wikiquote serve pra essas coisas.

Ou você acha que eu sei de cor umas frases de oito linhas? Ok, não responda.

Bom te ver por aqui.
