In previous entries I have expressed my admiration for Alejandro Dolina, who consider a teacher and a reference. And beyond his fine humor and wit to make people laugh, mostly rescued sensitivity, in these times where unfortunately love is so bastardized and there is plenty of room for sensitive men.
His powers of observation, analysis, reflection and criticism, his great oratory and great simplicity with which he expresses his ideas, make a single rate.
Add 4 gems of it, frankly enriching all. Greetings!

truly rebellious About
Notes:
Caballito Ruben says: Dolina, Will we still talking about the portrait of Louis XV or talking about the toilet of the Yankees in Baghdad?
Dolina - According. If you want to hear on the toilet of the Yankees in Baghdad have all day. You have all day to hear that. In this program, because we are not trained, are not journalists, we do not work with general information.
- You're telling me? What he said a friend who said that while the people suffered we spoke of the Egyptians. I wish I had time to explain this, but ... First, we do what we do for singing a mionga.
"I mean, that maybe, the truly rebellious, the force that opposes Bush's brutality, the stupidity of the officials, force that will save the suffering people is: the power of intelligence, of thought and sensitivity. And by no means the opportunism of those who say things inlets against the war as if bad enough. What do you do? Let him go and take Mc Donald's, and Bush shake.
-Bush and any of the tyrants are shaking a lot more if it develops, my dear friend, intelligence.
"That is the road. The way of thinking, science, intelligence, art.
- What do you want? What art and abandon all dedicate ourselves to watch CNN? What do you put the TV on CNN? What is the point I say she killed 600? Sure that killed 600.
"If everyone was busy reading a book, for example, Mr. Bush, maybe instead of killing civilians, would be interested to enjoy the comings and goings of thinking, go see history as a source of wisdom, tap into poetry, novels, this delicious mix of sounds is music. That's the good thing my dear old life.
"Do not stand like a vulture to see how many died and believing that mere solipsistic and masturbatory attitude, to be watching CNN to see how Bush killed going to shake someone. That is useless.
"What works is the struggle for the good things in life that are my dear friend love, knowledge, art, science and work. And by no means the complaint, hatred, and gloat like a vulture with the awful things that are happening. That's the struggle.

The end of an illusion
The 1994 World Cup in the United States marked the end of the career of Diego Maradona with Argentina Team Jersey , when he tested positive in the anti doping test.
That July 1, 1994, black Dolina spoke on that topic was so controversial at the time, with his particular style.
I add the audio and Dolina words of that sad day.
Alejandro Dolina - Today, we are of outrages - is not it? - It's a sad day. And a few minutes ago I had occasion to make a small comment to Channel 13 about this disgrace of Diego Maradona, and I mean that if football was only a misfortune, I surely would not bring up in this program and if it were nothing more than Comment of a defeat or a player on offense has been out of the championship, well either, because here is a team very suitable for this, I think the best, you know that I have admiration for Victor Hugo Morales. So is not it a sports commentary. But the dream of the return of Diego was, for he speaks-a dream much bigger than a football dream. I thought I would see the return of this guy who I admired so much and I loved her so much as a soccer player and also as a person. I thought I would see that return one of the few and success that man has against time, against death, against evil and against the mesquindad. In general the time always wins, death prevails, the mesquindad triumphs and simple virtues later or earlier, tend to be buried. I remember at that line Ruben Dario, the conqueror of death. Time winner, winner of the malevicencia, winner of his own mistake: Diego Maradona was returning. And apart from that one I'm happy that a guy with the 10 blue and white plays well ... had more ... had more ... There was the athlete who had been beaten by a hypocritical society which pointed him out as a criminal, being in the same circle that drew him as a criminal, they verified the same practices that he reproached Diego, with breathtaking hypocrisy. Some journalists, thinkers and mediocre in general, attacked Diego. They began with Diego paternalism. Began to give advice to Diego. Began to deny or complain that Diego was an example for many young people. In this regard I should say the following, I've said it other times but it say it now: I think it is an example. Is an example in a country in the world, but particularly in a country where people's aspiration is to get a 4 in order to move forward, ie, give as little as possible to receive as much as possible. Denying excellence like obseciva and insane, to comply with the mediocrity that can come loose - as the saying goes. In a world that wants a 4, Diego was 10. And in that sense, it remains an example for the kids. Paradigm, because it shows that it is sometimes desirable to be the best ever. And although they got to be, it's worth fighting for if one succeeds. No athlete in the world, no athlete in the world was so persecuted. Football player suspended for a year at the apex of his career. Being the best. A career as we all know common place through, by topic: is short-
Jorge Dorio - There was another gesture Alejandro-if I there in the middle, also in the apex and in the middle of the fall, which is allowed to have when accommodation in turn allowed him to move quiet amid the noise and glory, rise against the powerful, right or wrong, it does not matter, but have a personal opinion, function as a man in the middle of this movement usually idols empty speeches, opinions and passions.
Alejandro Dolina - Right. He took the most uncomfortable position. Stood at the heart of the discomfort. Would have been easy for him to do as we say like Pele. Become a friend of the powerful, be sponsor, marching down the main streets of the "mangiaorejas" and did not do so. Not spared many of their origin. I have heard many times during the year of his suspension, "What do you want with this bold villero?." Do not forgive their origin. It spared neither José Maria Gatica, other than from far, far below came very high for his talent and without pandering to anyone. No athlete suffered similar trauma. He managed to return. Was attacked. The mistake was pushed even. But why?. The media, the world we live in it, often forcing fighters and lonely quixotic to play the game that everyone plays. And then ... What is the game we all play?. The game media retruque game, the game knowing that Socrates did not write books, play not to eat the 'S'. The game of a certain elegance, and the game play very well who the world handle. And Diego played that game, of course, the other, the game he was very hard to beat. I have not seen any journalist who challenge him to make "little game", but I have seen it challenged journalists to speak to a controversial. Ah! Big deal! ... Ask Diego that is controversial, it is worship. Well, by God ...
Jorge Dorio -
- No. They did not find that. They found no complacency, and complicity welcome usually have sometimes coming from far below and are comfortable with the powerful alliance. Diego not to be found. Well, all this was overlaid Diego. And most of it back, it was a miracle! It was a miracle. The miracle of the hero who returns from hell. Theseus rescued from hell. The groom waiting for the princess who is sad, Ruben ... but well, and it happens this episode absurd. So why my sadness and disappointment. No sadness of football fans who said: Uh! We took the best!. That would be sad small. No. The sadness of a Creole he saw as a boy Fiorito "The best player I've ever seen, could overcome the wretched and see how-much to the delight of those wretches who are now filling the mouth with counterclaims legalistic things the like-as much to the delight of them, that dream was frustrated. I am very sad. I cried, not for football, I do since I was 11 years do not cry for soccer-cry for an aesthetic and an ethic that turns to be trampled by the mediocre. I said maybe channel 13-exaggerating my feelings, but something that is true: I had more desire to see champ Diego to see champion Argentina. And another thing I also: When putting your hands on fire, good friend will bring them even when you know you can burn. Because his hands on fire with no burns up puts anyone. The true friend is one who puts his hands on fire even when you know you are going to burn. And if Dieguito Maradona who has given us so many joys, today we do not deserve to put their hands into the fire burned even when we remove, for then I do not understand anything, or fobal, nor, what is worse Life .
Jorge Dorio - Alejandro there anything else you think and speak, later in an interview sometimes things are diluted, not orquestras, is an escape. There is a kind of home-appointment would say "There's something that might look like, because the dimensions are different," I say, I thought a political event a couple of decades - is not it? - Anybody who returns as well, which reunites the people gathered around him, and that is lost, diluted as illusion, and excitement of a country. But did you think of an example, in a story that is precedent to that and which founded in this country. Say, the need for someone to make a fitting gesture to the gesture of the hero, a gesture. You remember perfectly well who I'm talking about.
Alejandro Dolina - course. There was no shame in this case, it has not already been-a Tadeo Isidoro Cruz Fierro for it. Tadeo Isidoro Cruz, one sergeant of the game, you will learn to Martin Fierro sees that when they fight at a disadvantage, but with much courage, he says: I'm not allowed to mate and making a brave and his party, the the losing party. Cruz knew that taking the party was leading to marginalization and suppression but he took it and said, I'm not going to stop the killing and a brave. There was no cross to this Fierro. I was going to talk about some paradoxes, some aphorias, Bertrand Russell, Zenon of Elea, in Timénedes But paradoxes are little games at the hands of the right, and luckily was stronger this time, the power of passion. Let's hear a tango, no matter what, dedicated to Dieguito Maradona singing a friend of ours.

Love Stories
the book: Chronicles of the Gray Angel, Alejandro Dolina
One is almost nowhere.
However, amid the endless desolation there is good news: love.
Sensitive Men Flores took that course when they wanted to explain the cosmos. Even the debunkers of Legends had to admit, almost without qualification, that love exists.
Of course, no one should confuse love with joy. The contrary is sometimes thought that love and grief are the same thing. Especially in the neighborhood of Angel Gray, who is also the area of \u200b\u200bthe clash.
The love stories of the golden times are almost always sad.
This is not enough to say that all the romances were unfortunate, it happens-maybe-that art needs nostalgia. Can not be an artist if you have not missed something. Happy love poems appear as a friend of fortunate merchants. So Flores poets sought disappointment, because they thought he was walking near perfect verse. Almost all were in the middle of the road.
Manuel Mandeb saw things in a more complicated. He admitted that the penalty for driving love art. But he also argued that the ultimate purpose of art is love. The reward of the artist is to be loved.
This comment seemed Ives Castagnino, Palermo musician, who composed the sole purpose melancholic waltzes to seduce girls. When not managed, sadness dictated other songs that later would serve to dazzle new ladies, and so the cycle recommenced.
Some boys tried without artistic merit calling the ladies cultivating the sciences, kindness, courage, wealth or extortion. The authors of aphorisms drawn from these facts a modest conclusion: if not for love, nobody would do much.
belligerents may Girls objected that these thoughts seem reserved for male behavior. In this regard, Mandeb believed that women made for themselves an art.
The polygraph of Flores, in a fit of caprice, was to establish an order of qualities, according to their effectiveness in love.
placed first and then the beauty of youth, noting that these two virtues are perhaps one.
placed the spiritual conditions, intelligence and goodness. Ultimately, the power and money.
Crowds of a certain age ugly dispute with Mandeb claiming the right to be loved for its clean, commercial or name illustrious career.
Anyway, to this obscure thinker, love was an exotic flower whose discovery happened a few times.
"For every thousand people walking through that door " he said Perhaps only move us. Similarly, perhaps only one there among the thousand be good enough to impress us. The bill is simple: without misleading perceptions and subsequent disillusionment, the possibility of unrequited love is one in a million. It is not so bad after all.
But let the spirits pure speculation flowers obtuse. Much more interesting is how truly loved. To do this we will have to transcribe some stories that boast true and have come to us through the dark avenues shortcuts literary or confidential.
History
George Allen, the poet, in love with a young buxom hostile neighborhoods. As discovered later, was able to be happy. One June night, the girl decided to leave.
"I do not want any more," he said.
Allen then made the worst sins of his life, he begged, he humbled himself and wept horrific wrote verses in the corners.
The busty stood firm and sealed the move interspersed with gleaming sports. The poet regained dignity and spent his time hopeless love and remembering the past. Retemper his soul in suffering and became increasingly wise and kind. Often dreamed of the return of the girl but had the good sense not to expect that this dream was fulfilled.
later learned that he would never have in your life something better than that love impossible.
However, a summer night seven years and seven months after its decision, the busty appeared again.
Tears streamed down his neck when he confessed to the poet:
"Again, I love you.
Allen was never able to clearly tell what he felt in those hours. The fact is that he returned home disillusioned caviar. He wanted to mourn and could not. Never again see the busty. And what is worse, never, never again think of her dream or his return.
history of falling in love with a girl too young
Manuel Mandeb once had an affair with a very young girl on the street Páez. The girl did not question the age difference and it is true that Mandeb was a proud-looking man, in his somber style.
But soon the problems began.
One day, Manuel insisted on walking in a downpour while reciting a sonnet by shouting brand.
One night I made love in the haunted house in the street hood to scare demons.
Sometimes in the morning, climbed to the window of the girl, on the third floor, and left a red flower pinned.
One winter afternoon made him forget to try the liquor and wine of memory.
In summer, I pulled the blouse in the dark streets and made him one of his worn blue shirts.
For his birthday he gave a shadow stolen in Villa Park that was enclosed in a glass box.
Then he showed all the birds from Flores to chant the name of the girl in his ventanta.
Then the girl left to Mandeb and then said your friends in a pizzeria:
-were not of the same generation.
History is disgraced in the train
-Jaime Gorriti took the train every day at 14:35.
And every day was set in a brunette student. With cautious cunning was located near her and, at times linking look promising.
One evening began to greet her. And several days later had the opportunity to be seen, helping to collect some books come down.
Finally, a vacant seat allowed to sit together and talk. Gorriti accelerated and made known their skills hummingbird enthusiast. There was wrong. The brunette knew the game and working with appropriate retruques.
However, the demons decided to intervene.
Haedo Leaving the girl tried to open the window and could not. With a mundane gesture, Gorriti liked a lot the bench.
"Please ...
took hold of the handles, pulled up in full force and irreparable disgraced with a bang.
Without a word, he went down the hall and took off the train in Morón. From that day began to take the train at 14:10.
History suffering two evils
Caracas in the street lived a man who loved a blonde.
But she despised him entirely.
few blocks down two brunettes were dying man and offered him at his door. He rejected them honestly.
Love holds two highest odds of opposite sign: love who does not love us and be loved by those who can not love.
The man in the street Caracas suffered two mishaps at the same time and died one morning to the cries of the brunettes and indifference of the blonde.
History could not forget
The Russian Salzman had many girlfriends. And in fact used to leave soon. But I never forgot them.
Every night his former love in turn presented him as a nightmare. Salzman and wept over the lack of them.
The first girlfriend, greengrocer Burzaco, the redhead Luro Villa, the English of La Lucila, the architect of Palermo, Citadel's dressmaker. And brides who never had: that he would not, which was once in the harbor, where it sold a couple shoe, which disappeared into a doorway before crossing him.
Salzman After crying for future brides who had not yet arrived. The wise men mocked the Russian understood that it was possessed of the most sacred cosmic berretín: Man wanted to live all lives and was sentenced to travel only by one. Learn to dream of those who are content to take the lottery.
Street lost girlfriends
There is a street in Flores they live all brides abandoned. In the evening go out to the sidewalk and looking anxiously toward the corners to see if they return the couple who left. Sometimes they talk to each other and reminisce old Rose Garden walks.
the evenings are enclosed to reread old letters stored in boxes that look gorgeous photographs or gray.
Sundays floral dresses are made and painted lips. Some diaries written in block letters neatly.
Say it is not possible to find the street. But one knows that someday lead to the grooms corner battalion victors of death for Brides rescue lost and take a walk in the Rose Garden. This will be a long time, when the strings sweeten the songbird.
countless people out there who swear trusted that love is possible in all neighborhoods. Shall not discuss this thesis. But who wants to live mad passions, it is better not to waste time on wrong paths. A terrible story is waiting in Flores.

Tv " vs Books?
Dolina - Laura said ... Hello ... look at that idea so rare that of Laura. Says "Step to argue. The book is overvalued, while the television is undervalued. I input and puts us on alert. " Why? First, not enough to say one thing to prove it. For example, the book is overrated, period. Television is undervalued.
- In the best conceivable that the book is and television, for example, and is valued over television with good reason.
Gillespi - What is the argument of her ?
Dolina - says: "The book earned its overvaluation by the most noble and important human creations: the Divine Comedy, Don Quixote, going to the moon (doubtful), etc. Television has to bear the prejudices of the idiot box, trash TV, and has merit to deserve it. Now this image we have of both media leads us to have as good what you read in books and what looks bad on TV . So we are very critical of the television while the books are more permissive. "
" It seems that people were very critical of the TV and permissive with books, since the choice, choose as we know it chooses.
She says: " Today is running a lot of crap ." True, and also televised the same.
Schultz - But some bias is also having to do with it. With regard to the TV and literature, right? Also like in the video. You see a person with a porn movie under the arm and rubs shoulders and says, "Look at this." Now if it takes a war to kill 50 types per second, says: "Oh, all right ta" carry it with pride.
Dolina - What is different is what she says, because the book itself does not matter what the book says, she believes that if such judge the TV their best works and books for the worst, the TV would win.
- And there is something else. Indeed, there are few mechanisms that come into play when one reads and when you see TV, which are obviously different.
- The language of knowledge and intelligence is the word. And the image change is the animal way of knowing. The most elementary knowledge. Animals known to the eyes. Sartori This says in a booklet called "Homo Videns."
- not coincidentally the books that are of better quality than the TV and then bad enough with four books and four good soap operas to turn that view. No.
- What we have is that the book, the word, discourse, imply mechanisms that come into play on TV. Whatever programming.
- What happened to the TV also has a basic programming obviously but for reasons having to do with return on investment, with a TV commercial reality that can not afford to complexity, while the book itself.
Schultz - Yes, the TV needs immediate results.
Dolina - Exactly, and a book not so much, obviously, and we are heading to people who have more patience. But obviously the book is, at least for now until they invent something else, is the most appropriate vehicle for the transmission of knowledge and purify culture, and no TV.
- Why kids do not get to watch TV instead of going to school? Why not be used as a teaching method. Why? Because among other things requires the attitude of the teacher, there are techniques that you are trained in exercises of increasing complexity, etc, etc, etc.
"But not because he happened Tinelli program and we do not like The Divine Comedy itself. The books are not better than the TV by the Divine Comedy and Tinelli.
- books are not better, are more complex . Used in other ways and for purposes quite different from the TV. That's the thing.
"I do not think the books are overvalued or undervalued TV. Each is what it is. Not that it becomes fashionable to talk about good books. No.
