00:00Born so stingy, it seems there's a perfect slime and a rough one.
00:03And it was from this one that we were born, and from that one the fortunate ones were born.
00:08Not all birds are eagles.
00:10Some thrive on growth, while others only know how to move from one branch to another.
00:14Some disappear into the vast expanse of air,
00:17Others always allow themselves to be seen in the limited space of a humble meadow.
00:20Those with the greatest courage rise to the highest sphere.
00:23Those with less vigor fly heavily and low to the ground.
00:27I've already lost sight of the prominent places.
00:30My eyes can only tilt downwards, and they cannot turn upwards without violence.
00:35All I see is with disillusioned eyes.
00:38Perhaps that's why he sees things as they are and not as they appear to be.
00:42Because disillusionment has the power and strength to tear away beauty.
00:45the falling and deceitful veil that makes up the theater of life.
00:49Fortune is not as beautiful as it seems.
00:52And I believe that the cup of fortune is often no less bitter than that of misfortune.
00:57Fortune, too, has its cup and its bitterness, and these are perhaps the most painful to swallow.
01:03Because in misfortune, the habit of feeling removes the cruelest part of the emotion.
01:08At least misfortune doesn't deceive.
01:10And it has to be a good thing that evil isn't feigned.
01:13She is genuine and appears exactly as she is.
01:16Fortune always disguises itself, resembling deceptive beauty.
01:19Which, in order to be more appealing, is adorned with flattering and ostentatious ornaments.
01:24Who doubts that beauty that adorns itself or covers itself with artifice is meant to conceal some natural ugliness?
01:31I know fortune without fortune knowing me.
01:34When I see her, she's so far away that it's impossible for her to reach me or for me to reach her.
01:38We are both inaccessible.
01:40It's true that I don't seek her out, nor have I ever sought her out anxiously.
01:43Because I always understood him as a less suitable subject to be favored.
01:47Furthermore, fortune wants you to seek it with faith, and boldly it enamors itself with constant resolve.
