A VIDA É ‘UM SONHO DENTRO DE UM SONHO’

No meio do caminho, numa montanha dos Alpes da Baviera alemã, há um portal que parece conduzir a ‘um sonho dentro de um sonho’, como diz a letra dessa música da banda The Alan Parsons Project.

É como tudo o que vemos ou parecemos, uma ilusão, conforme o fotógrafo James Hilgenberg, autor dessa imagem impressionante. “Nós viemos para o mundo do nada para, no final, ir a lugar nenhum”.

TALES OF MISTERY AND IMAGINATION

De Edgar Allan Poe com narração de Orson Welles

For my own part, I have never had a thought
Which I could not set down in words
With even more distinctness that which I conceived it.
There is however a class of fancies of exquisite delicacy
Which are not thoughts and to which as yet
I have found it absolutely impossible to adapt to language.
These fancies arise in the soul,
Alas how rarely, only at epochs
Of most intense tranquillity
When the bodily and mental health are in perfection.
And those mere points of time
When the confines of the waking world
Blend with the world of dreams.
And so I captured this fancy
Where all that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
