Bem, digam o que disserem as monikas, as hilaries, as chelseas, os gores, os kerries, os bushes, os cheneys, as condoleezas, todos esses e todos os outros - e contra factos não há argumentos -, este senhor inspira-me. Por todas as razões (humanas, políticas, económicas, artísticas, ambientais...). E sem razão (nenhuminha...).

Por falar em falta de razão... Este título... deixa muito a desejar. Esqueci-me de que a 8 de Fevereiro já não estou cá, e portanto a questão aula das 2.30 pm (ou conferência) nem sequer se põe! Não ando mesmo bem.
