ENGLISH TRANSCRIPT:

I mean, you're only on this planet for so

long? Go for it now!

Patrick had something about him that was very rugged but that also had that beautiful? gentle sensuous ability to move.

Patrick performed like he had something

to prove. He was a gymnast? A world-class

cowboy? A ballet dancer? Really? 

I was just looking for any way to make a mark.

I remember watching Patrick and thinking: ?Man! The guy?s so good?.

He charmed everyone. He'd find a way in and make you just fall in love with him.

As soon as we started dancing it was just

like ? hah?

It was important to be great. He

carried that over in his life.

He'd be bubbly and fun and then as soon as he's by himself and alone he would just crash.

I have these demons that run around in

my insides. I've done everything in the

world thinking I'm gonna get rid of them.

I don't know if (I) ever will.

We had so many challenging things to deal with but I still loved him.

There was an innate loneliness and I think that's where his art came from.

Ready or not, here comes mama.

To be taken seriously they really

needed to work harder.

Pain don't hurt.

That's him coming out of the plane and

it?s in the movie. Would everybody do

that? Not a chance in hell!

When you're a master of your body physically, you think you are larger than any disease.

Whenever anything good in my life

happens, I'm just afraid I'm gonna lose

it.

This was raw courage of somebody who

knew they were going to die but wasn't

making an issue of it.

We show them that the human spirit is still alive.

What Patrick accomplished in his life,

very few people get to accomplish.

PORTUGUESE TRANSLATION:

Quer dizer, você está neste planeta apenas por um certo tempo? Vá em frente agora!

Patrick tinha algo sobre ele que era muito áspero, mas que também tinha aquela bela? gentil habilidade sensual de se mover.

Patrick se apresentou como se tivesse algo

provar. Ele era ginasta? Um cowboy de classe mundial? Um bailarino? Sério?

Eu só estava procurando qualquer maneira de deixar uma marca.

Lembro-me de assistir Patrick e pensar: ?Cara! O cara é tão bom?.

Ele encantava a todos. Ele dava um jeito e fazia você se apaixonar por ele.

Assim que começamos a dançar foi simplesmente ah?

Era importante ser ótimo. Ele

carregou isso por sua vida.

Ele era cheio de vida e divertido e, assim que estivesse sozinho e sozinho, ele simplesmente desmoronava/colapsava.

Eu tenho esses demônios que correm por aí

nas minhas entranhas. Eu fiz tudo no

mundo pensando ?vou me livrar deles?.

Eu não sei se (eu) algum dia vou.

Tínhamos tantas coisas desafiadoras para lidar, mas eu ainda o amava.

Havia uma solidão inata e acho que é daí que vinha sua arte.

Pronto ou não, aí vai a mamãe.

Para serem levados a sério, eles realmente

precisavam trabalhar mais.

A dor não dói.

É ele saindo do avião e

está no filme. Todo mundo faria

isso? Nem uma maldita chance!

Quando você é um mestre do seu corpo fisicamente, você pensa que é maior do que qualquer doença.

Sempre que alguma coisa boa na minha vida acontece, eu só fico com medo de perder (isto).

Esta foi a coragem crua de alguém que

sabia que ia morrer, mas não estava querendo ser tratado como tendo 

um problema importante.

Mostramos a eles que o espírito humano ainda está vivo.

O que Patrick realizou em sua vida,

muito poucas pessoas conseguem realizar.
