People I Admire

Great musician and to me one of the greatest man that ever exist. There are people who make him look like a monster, and I don't understand why, because if he is not a good man, there's no good men in the world.

Arguments:

A timeless message. Imagine should be the world anthem.

EN: "Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans."

"You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one."

I love his quotes, his way of thinking. One of the most influential people ever. A great director, actor, composer and comedian.

Arguments:

His most iconic moment in "The Great Ditactor". The best speech ever.

Quotes:

EN: "Life is wonderful if not afraid of it."

PT: "Um dia sem risos é um dia desperdiçado."

"Smile though your heart is aching.
Smile even though it's breaking."

Have I to explain why I admire her? Ok! So, she is a great actress, and... she is an amazing human being with a big heart and she is so ellegant. If she isn't an icon, a legend, if she doesn't deserve be remembered, I don't know anything. She is... I have no more words to say. I simply can't say how she is amazing, really.

Arguments:

She was UNICEF ambassador and she felt the need to help others.

Quotes:

EN: "For attractive lips, speak only words of kindness. For lovely eyes, look for the good in others. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers throught it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed, never throw out anyone.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm. As you get older, remember you have another hand, the first is to help yourself, the second is to help others. The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides."

PT: "Eu nasci com uma enorme necessidade de receber carinho, e com uma terrível necessidade de dá-lo."
EN: "I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it."

"Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm Possible'"


"Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way."

One of the best actresses of all the time, if not better. A woman with a strong personality. She was the first cool person in Hollywood.


EN: "I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun."

PT: "O amor não tem nada a ver com o que esperas alcançar, apenas o que esperar, ou seja, tudo."
EN: "Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get, only with what you are expecting to give, which is everything."

PT: "Se obedeces a todas as regras, acabas por perder toda a diversão."
EN: "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun."

The ex-Beatle, Paul McCartney, is the greatest musician alive. I admire him mainly because he defends the rights of animals. And many other things.

Arguments:

Now, you understand me. It was he that wrote the song. And OMG, was he crying?

"I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird."
