"We are patriotic monarchists by calculation, a set of feelings hectare of loyalty, the duty of respect, recognition to the great servants hectare of the State, the love of order, hectare of deference to the merits hectare and aspirations for this Brazil is always united and strong. " (Viscount Taunay)
The great philosopher Socrates, who knowing that nothing knew, was the wisest of all was on trial accused of "corrupting the youth" of the time. Taught them to think and not to believe everything they were told by the authorities. hectare
Even against the will of his students and friends, Socrates chose death! Would undoubtedly have escaped, but followed his fate. Kept intact her honor. It was his final teaching to his disciples. The preference of Socrates by hemlock (poison) had its very simple hectare logic, but that is not anyone who is man to follow: If I have two choices of paths to follow, and one of them, I know where it goes (and is not a good place), hectare and the other, unaware of its end, now ... That is the choice that is unknown, it may be that something good wait its end. For the philosopher, to stay in that world at that time and in those circumstances it was something really bad. It would be like giving victory to the authorities who accused him. Drinking the hemlock, on the other hand, would be a step to an uncertain fate, because no one knows what comes next. For him, it would be much wiser to follow a path whose destination could be good to stay in one that would never be.

One thing it seems right to us, we know the Brazil Empire less distorted by Republican ideology: with all the possible negatives happening, yet we would be worse off than the republic. And the chances of giving back the right is too big. It takes a generation to be born in the Empire reaches its 25 years and can compare the two times. Nothing will change in four years. But at 25, we'll see the first fruits. I'm sure that the republic would not have more time. Therefore, the teaching of Socrates comes to us, Brazilians! We can talk to people and tell the story of the philosopher who preferred the possibility of changing the permanence of chaos! It's an interesting argument, and which can be summarized in the following question: "If you had a choice between two paths:
This text puts his finger on. That's right, a lot of people, for conformity, for fear of the unknown, they prefer hectare to endure hell today and spend your leisure to vilify who holds the baton this hellish cacophony. Delete Reply
