Metro Tercero

Cuando Febo desde su dorada cuadriga esparce la luz en el firmamento, palidecen las estrellas; y, vencidas por los rayos ardientes de aquel fuego, eclipsan el esplendor de su blanca frente.

El bosque, al tibio soplo de los céfiros, se viste de flores tempranas; mas si viene el Austro nebuloso a desencadenar sus iras, la rama, antes lozana, se despoja de sus galas.

Muchas veces extasía el mar en calma, radiante en la majestad de sus aguas tranquilas, pero si sopla el Aquilón, se levantan furiosas tempestades en las ondas agitadas.

Si tan pasajeras son las formas todas del mundo, si tan profundos son los cambios que experimenta, podrás confiar en las deleznables riquezas de los hombres o en sus bienes fugitivos? Lo único inmutablemente establecido por una ley eterna es la eterna inconstancia de todas las cosas creadas.

The false start of September 1911 is a reminder that there is no such thing as an inevitable outcome in the risky enterprise of polar exploration. Methodical and careful, Amundsen was also a man of towering ambition, prey to the same dangerous dreams and impulses that drive all explorers to risk their lives in wild places. Amundsen's greatness is not that he lacked such driving forces but that he mastered them—as his diary entries go on to show. Four days after his premature start Amundsen assessed his party's situation dispassionately and made the decision to "hurry back to wait for the spring. To risk men and animals by continuing stubbornly once we have set off, is something I couldn't consider. If we are to win the game, the pieces must be moved properly; a false move and everything could be lost." The ability to regain and maintain perspective in the pursuit of something as heady as a personal dream is a rare asset. Like other great explorers, Amundsen knew when to turn back.

Conspiracy

“When you’re young, you look at television and think, There’s a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that’s not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want. That’s a far more depressing thought. Conspiracy is optimistic! You can shoot the bastards! We can have a revolution! But the networks are really in business to give people what they want. It’s the truth.”

The thing is proceeding very slowly because no sooner does one set about finally disposing of subjects to which one has devoted years of study than they start revealing new aspects and demand to be thought out further.
