THERE ARE NO COWS IN FORMENTERA or PHARAOH'S DREAM

PHILOSOPHY. 
Still under the spell of Mann's Joseph and his brothersI remember the times in which I was willing to stop at nothing to try to be happy.
Fat Cows is when we've got so much and don't really know what to do with it. With Thin Cows, one should relish every bite and even (might) learn to value what is left.


When cows get fat we should put them on a diet.
The XXI century pocket Plato, your humble invader.


Todavía bajo la influencia del libro de Thomas Mann (José y sus hermanos), recuerdo los tiempos en los que estaba dispuesto a no reparar en nada para intentar ser feliz.
Las Vacas Gordas es cuando tenemos tanto que no sabemos realmente qué hacer con ello. Con las Vacas Flacas, uno debiera disfrutar de cada bocado y quizá incluso conseguir aprender a valorar lo que queda.


Cuando las vacas engordan, hay que ponerlas a dieta.
El Platón de bolsillo del siglo XXI, vuestro humilde invasor.

  2. Is that what the speaker in the painting is espousing? We have a lot of fat cows here in America. The whole country needs to go on a f... diet!

  3. Although I have stopped eating cows quite a long time ago, I can say that I have never taken anything for granted.
