“He Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven” by W. B. Yeats
Read by Tom Hiddleston
Questa la amo proprio da morire.
Non posso esimermi dall’aggiungere anche il testo:
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

autumnisraining asked: Prof, perchè lei si veste sempre di nero? Se è lecito chiederlo..
:D E’ lecito, si!
Vorrei poterti dire che mi piace l’idea di indossare un non-colore, che va bene il nero fuori perchè controbilancia la miriade impazzita di colori che ho dentro, che fa molto intellettuale e chic.
In realtà è solo perchè presenta difficoltà zero di abbinamento, quando al mattino pesco a casaccio i vestiti, e perchè, ahimè, mi serve: sfina :D
LOL :D
(Anyway, biggest fail ever Mr Laurie, I’m sorry :D)

“When You Are Old” by W. B. Yeats
Read by Tom Hiddleston
… QUANTUNQUE, essendo W.B. irlandese, sarebbe stato meglio ascoltarlo da un attore irlandese :-)
Ma noi siamo magnanime e ci va benissimo anche così, giusto B., E., G. & B. e G. ?
:-D

"Among other things, you’ll find that you’re not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You’re by no means alone on that score, you’ll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You’ll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It’s a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn’t education. It’s history. It’s poetry."
J. D. Salinger, Catcher In The Rye (via bookmania)
