Esse era o problema de falar com pessoas de Portugal, havia palavras que eles não entendiam.
Ondjaki, Good Morning Comrades

Ryszard Kapuściński
To understand our world, we must use a revolving globe and look at the earth from various vantage points. If we do so, we will see that the Atlantic is but a bridge linking the colorful, tropical Afro-Latin American world, whose strong ethnic and cultural bonds have been preserved to this day. For a Cuban who arrives in Angola, neither the climate, nor the landscape, nor the food are strange. For a Brazilian, even the language is the same.
Ryszard Kapuściński, Another Day of Life
