English to Portuguese: How Proust can change your life (Alan de Bottom)
Source text - English Infirmity alone makes us take notice and learn, and enables us to analyse processes which we would otherwise know nothing about. A man who falls straight into bed every night, and ceases to live until the moment when he wakes and rises, will surely never dream of making, not necessarily great discoveries, but even minor observations about sleep. He scarcely knows that he is asleep. A little insomnia is not without its value in making us appreciate sleep, in throwing a ray of light upon that darkness. An unfailing memory is not a very powerful incentive to study the phenomenon of memory.
Translation - Portuguese A enfermidade, por si só, faz com que estejamos mais alerta e aprendamos, permitindo-nos analisar processos que de outra forma não teríamos conhecimento. Um indivíduo que todas as noites vai directo para a cama, e deixa de viver até ao momento em que desperta e se levanta, nunca irá certamente sonhar com o fazer, não necessariamente grandes descobertas, mas até mesmo pequenas observações sobre o dormir. Mal se apercebe que está a dormir. Um pouco de insónia deixa de ter o seu valor, permitindo-nos que apreciemos o sono, que lancemos um raio de luz sobre as trevas. Uma memória infalível não é um incentivo muito forte para estudar os fenómenos da memória.
