"I finish things I start.
Books - they could be 500 pages. Once I start them, even if I hate it, I'll finish it.
I friends who I can't stand, you know, for, like, 25 years. I'm still friends with them. (Because) I stay to the end, till they're dead.
I go down whit the ship. That's what I do.
I'm not even the captain, I'm going down with the ship.
That's how I want you to think about me: I'm the guy who keeps the captain company."


L.D.

"Anyway, the fifth saying in the second chapter of Pirkei Avot includes the statement, “A boor can’t be sin-fearing, and an ignoramus can’t be a chassid.” In the English translation, in the parenthesis next to the word chassid it says, “One who does more than the letter of the law requires.” That’s it. I was amazed. My friend and his buddy could argue all day long about hats, coats and beards. You and I might be more philosophical, but still not get to the heart of the matter. But our sages didn’t waste words. A chassid is simply someone who does more than he has to, someone who goes the extra yard."

What's A “Hassid”, Anyway?

The L'Occitane iPhone application.


(O inglês também podia passar por uma reforma ortográfica. Tirar um "p" do "application", por exemplo, já seria muito útil. Mas pra escrever o nome da Gwyneth Paltrow, a gente ainda ia precisar do Google.)
