Poemas de Vinícius de Moraes (4)

A vida é pra valer.E não se engane não, tem uma só. Duas mesmo que é bom, ninguém vai me dizer que tem sem provar muito bem provado, com certidão passada em cartório do céu, e assinada embaixo: Deus! E com firma reconhecida. A vida não é de brincadeira, amigo. Vinicius de Moraes Porque a vida só se dá pra quem se deu, pra quem amou, pra quem chorou, pra quem sofreu. Eu Sei Que Vou Te Amar Eu sei que vou te amar Por toda a minha vida eu vou te amar Em cada despedida eu vou te amar Desesperadamente Eu sei que vou te amar E cada verso meu será Pra te dizer que eu sei que vou te amar Por toda minha vida Eu sei que vou chorar A cada ausência tua eu vou chorar Mas cada volta tua há de apagar O que esta ausência tua me causou Eu sei que vou sofrer A eterna desventura de viver A espera de viver ao lado teu Por toda a minha vida Soneto dO Maior Amor Louco amor meu, que quando toca, fere E quando fere vibra, mas prefere Ferir a fenecer - e vive a esmo.

I’ve edited a monthly magazine for more than six years, and it’s a job that’s come with more frustration than reward.

20 Common Grammar Mistakes That (Almost) Everyone Gets Wrong

If there’s one thing I am grateful for — and it sure isn’t the pay — it’s that my work has allowed endless time to hone my craft to Louis Skolnick levels of grammar geekery. As someone who slings red ink for a living, let me tell you: grammar is an ultra-micro component in the larger picture; it lies somewhere in the final steps of the editing trail; and as such it’s an overrated quasi-irrelevancy in the creative process, perpetuated into importance primarily by bitter nerds who accumulate tweed jackets and crippling inferiority complexes.
