今为哥伦布日,老哥虽有争议但他若不发现美洲,今日吾等或也不会居北美, 因为美洲会像墨国或巴西。
今天不少老哥Christopher Columbus像都被去除了。
《Discovery of Paradise 1492》这部美国电影讲述哥伦布这个意大利人用了西班牙女后的钱,雇了葡萄牙水手,最终登陆St 萨尔瓦多。
希望某天马斯克登上火星途中也能放这首歌,为人类开拓新天地。
Conquest of Paradise

Hmm ...
There shines a light in the heart of man,
Defies the dead of the night,
A beam that glows within every soul
Like wings of hope taking flight.
A sunny day, when a baby's born,
The little things that we say,
A special sparkle in someone's eye,
Simple gifts, every day.
Somewhere there's a paradise
Where everyone finds release,
It's here on earth and between your eyes,
A place we all find our peace.
Refrain:
Come - open your heart,
Reach for the stars,
Believe your own power.
Now - here in this place,
Here on this earth,
This is the hour.
It's just a place we call paradise,
Each of us has his own,
It has no name, no, it has no price,
It's just a place we call home.
A dream that reaches beyond the stars
The endless blue of the skies,
Forever wondering: who we are?
Forever questioning: why?
{Refrain}
There shines a light in the heart of man,
Defies the dead of the night,
A beam that glows within every soul
Like wings of hope taking flight,
Like wings of hope taking flight.
