Animismo?

WARNING! This machine is subject to breakdowns during periods of critical need. A special circuit in the machine called a 'critical detector' senses the operator's emotional state, in terms of how desperate he or she is to use the machine. The 'critical detector' then creates a malfunction proportional to the desperation of the operator. Threatening the machine with violence only aggravates the situation. Likewise, attempts to use another machine may cause it also to malfunction. They belong to the same union. Keep cool and say nice things to the machine. Nothing else seems to work. Never let any machine know you are in a hurry.
(Chandler, D. 2001)

Papert de novo

The problem in education is not that we aim too high and fail, but that we aim too low and succeed.

Porque eu estava lá e algumas coisas merecem ser recordadas

Pessoa

Louco, sim, louco, porque quis grandeza
Qual a Sorte a não dá.
Não coube em mim minha certeza;
Por isso onde o areal está
Ficou meu ser que houve, não o que há.

Minha loucura, outros que me a tomem
Com o que nela ia.
Sem a loucura que é o homem
Mais do quea besta sadia,
Cadáver adiado que procria?

"Mensagem", Fernando Pessoa
