socrates, commenting on brazil: it's a big disaster zone, really, but it is the essence of humanity. when humanity organises itself too much, it loses its most basic characteristics, its instincts, its pleasures.

by the way, this socrates is the brazilian footballer of the 1982 team.

and there's this joke comparing the standards of brazilian football and greek football.

both brazil and greece have a socrates each, just that brazil's is a footballer, while greece's is a philosopher.
