“Quando cade un carro di un grande, molti piccoli ne fanno spese. Molti che non hanno condiviso le sue fortune si troveranno a condividere le sue sfortune” B. Brecht. SARA 'COSI'?
Certainly I have never seen such a committee, to enjoy political support. I refer to the Administration of S. Maria CV well in office four years.
There were people who understood the extent of the damage caused "humanity" from the first minute and, after having proposed and voted for a mayor, it has been abandoned including, perhaps, to our chagrin, the thickness of the disaster that was descending on the city (on the honor, but also to repentance). There was, however, even those who (and the majority of politicians) has held up for about three years and more associated with those who had opposed during the electoral contest (electrocuted, suddenly, on the road to Damascus). All downloaded at the appropriate time for a different political hue and opposite (this clear once and for all the differences between left and right). Finally, there were those who wanted to gain "a place in the sun" and was convinced to support the Mayor "at the outset mortis" believed to earn heaven. Above all, there were those who followed him everywhere and in any case changing the party and religion (never as in this period, prostitution was so widespread as to become almost a way of life).
MANY Sorcerer's Apprentice.
" A moment later, having escaped the guillotine, to be survivors of the dictatorship of the proletariat, having shaken off fascism, the sorcerer's apprentice can almost always be at the service of ideology opposite to the hitherto embraced . not be identified-tout court-diligent with the Executioner, the evil torturer, the experienced soldier or the cruel and even with those who are at the top of power. However, the sorcerer's apprentices are able to provide powerful tools of persuasion to turn over refined, the perfect conceptual apparatus. In fact they never made the intellectual effort to produce evidence of the fact that only one phase of tyranny is able to produce justice for all. Even from the barbarism they sono capaci di distillare quella forza purificatrice che successivamente, dopo una fase di normalizzazione, può far risplendere e predominare serenamente la virtù.”. Gunter Grass.
Oggi, 30/12/2010, un sole d’inverno, mi ha tirato fuori di casa per poter incontrare persone amate, e mi sono trovato di fronte , dopo la notizia allegra e confortante, della caduta della Giunta, la stessa gente che ha governato, ( o sgovernato) intenta a proporre scenari “prossimi venturi”.
Già, mi sono detto, la politica è quella tecnica che difficilmente accetta il “vuoto”. Tutti quelli che , per mestiere, involved in the lives of others are already at work. On them rests the "thankless task" of preparing the electoral lists to represent the best. This is the day of "alternative". We live in the light of the alternatives. What's better than a nice alternative to tomato sauce with some basil leaves, to be put on the table?
risk, no, the certainty is that others (always the same) will prepare for all of us taking away the fun of cooking. This is not a bell'augurio for the coming year because not all "apprentices sorcerers "end up in psychiatric clinics. Many find the tranquility necessary to write their memoirs, as a rule talk vain, useless and confused.
However it is possible that our sorcerer's apprentice - it does not matter which side of the part - they lose their identity, become victims of their intellect "impartial" (of course), but since they can only be recognized by their peers, their removal is an elitist affair. Only one thing can not the sorcerer's apprentices, "off their heads and their buzz that there is silence."
“Le nostre parole non possono realmente esprimere un senso che è nostro senza essere radicate in un silenzio, che non è privazione di parole ma percezione indicibile della vita, della carne, e perfino del desiderio e dell'amore da dove nascono le parole .
Speriamo che il 2011 sia migliore del 2010, ne abbiamo tutti bisogno.
