Reis capítulo 302: a arte & a Hierarquia/art & Hierarchy…
Acho que o mandamento para honrar os pais e uma outra maneira mais para estabelecer e sustentar o sistema hierárquica e patriarca. Isso, junto com a perdão obrigatória, da mais estabilidade, através da hierarquia, mas também é muito oprimadora. Sobre tudo para as pessoas que não têm ninguém. É um assunto que também outras séries, como Hellbound, tratam. É por isso que O Projeto Do Better de Shira

Susan's review
of
The Promise and the Dream: The Untold Story of Martin Luther King, Jr. And Robert F. Kennedy:
"This is a fascinating biographical look at two men, “walking parallel paths and meeting parallel, tragic ends.” Bobby Kennedy was, of course, the younger brother of John F. Kennedy and utterly loyal, which was a character trait of his. The other trai"

of
The Promise and the Dream: The Untold Story of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy:
"Timeless Piece
“The Promise and the Dream” by David Margolick is simply an outstanding piece of non-fiction about one of the most critical eras in the history of the United States. " |

| Ok, so the millionaire (Eben Hale)'s secretary has been replaced, in the Netflix series, to spice things up, but the story is essentially the same, only with Jack London's writing being far more ... polemic, shall we say. The story was ok, but Netfli ...more | |

“It is better to believe in men too rashly, and regret, than believe too meanly. Men could be more than they are, if they would try for it. He has shown them that.”

“People, Reacher was certain about. Dogs were different. People had freedom of choice. If a man or a woman ran snarling toward him, they did so because they chose to. They were asking for whatever they got. His response was their problem. But dogs were different. No free will. Easily misled. It raised an ethical problem. Shooting a dog because it had been induced to do something unwise was not the sort of thing Reacher wanted to do.”

“If you can control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his action. When you determine what a man shall think you do not have to concern yourself about what he will do. If you make a man feel that he is inferior, you do not have to compel him to accept an inferior status, for he will seek it himself. If you make a man think that he is justly an outcast, you do not have to order him to the back door. He will go without being told; and if there is no back door, his very nature will demand one.”
