Like Diogenes, Im looking for an honest man... I only need only one! Yes, a man I want to meet. My fortune is a good teacher, because I don't know any man in the present and for that, I'm obligate to read books. For now I found three men.
Henry David Thoreau, he is the man! the hermit of concord. Thoreau made pencils, but he leave that because he was achieved the perfect pencil!, he lived two years a wild live in a cabin fabricated by him for live to the marrow all this that we designated life. The will to experience in the name of true, that I admire, his book Walden, is a treasure for all man in the city that think his life is not fully good.
Oh, who come there? Oh, is Georg Friedrich Philipp Freiherr von Hardenberg, best knew how Novalis! he is the man! Poet and philosopher, he knew the tragedy of live, he lost his beloved and his answer to the gods was knew the absolute. His strong and sweet melancholy is the example of the romantic heart, his Hymns to the Night is live and death at the same time!
Oh, oh, oh... Who is that? may be the devil, may be an angel, oh... is Søren Kierkegaard, he is the man, yes... he is the man! Theologian, philosopher , psychologist and writer... is one of the most important names in the history human thought. His pathos, and affliction for the existence, only the pure existence... He revealed our situation, angst and desperation for be self! His Fear and Trembling , The Concept of Anxiety and The Sickness Unto Death are the most valued knowledge that I have!
Yes, I'm looking a honest man, but would be a good idea start that hunt with me.
