No recesso, a vida traz presentes, como o planejamento das viagens de férias para Floripa e para a alemã Colônia, assim como etimologias varronianas no seu livro de leitura.
Emoticon heart
"[...] and the white shark of the tropics; what but their smooth, flaky whiteness makes them the transcendent horrors they are? That ghastly whiteness it is which imparts such an abhorrent mildness, even more loathsome than terrific, to the dumb gloating of their aspect. [...] the white gliding ghostliness of repose in that creature, when beheld in his ordinary moods, strangely tallies with the same quality in the Polar quadruped. This peculiarity is most vividly hit by the French in the name they bestow upon that fish. The Romish mass for the dead begins with 'Requiem eternam' (eternal rest), whence 'Requiem' denominating the mass itself, and any other funeral music. Now, in allusion to the white, silent stillness of death in this shark, and the mild deadliness of his habits, the French call him 'Requin'".
Herman Melville, Moby Dick, chapter 42
