ENGLISH
«Take some more tea» the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
«I’ve had nothing yet» Alice replied in an offended tone, «so I can’t take more.»
«You mean you can’t take less» said the Hatter: «it’s very easy to take more than nothing.»
I was Elsa (here), I was Maleficent (here), the Holy Death (here) and a painting by Lichtenstein (here). Every year with a specific reason.
This year I am the Mad Hatter. A decision taken at the last moment, when I had decided to do nothing. But it would have been like abandoning another lifeboat of my ship, I’m letting go of too many things and I don’t want to get lost in the sea without hope of rescue.
In half an hour I realized the makeup and found everything needed for the costume.
Why the Mad Hatter?
Happiness never seems to end. Because you have to be a little mad to smile at a funeral and answer that life is beautiful.
You have to be a little mad to love, you have to be a little mad to live. We all are. Every time we let ourselves go to a feeling, follow the instinct, believe someone, that we think we understand another. If we could be mad even in pain looking only at what is good, we would be much happier.
This year I’m the Mad Hatter because it’s exactly the role I’m playing, I need that mad joy to live every new day, to celebrate as many Non-birthdays as possible, to feel good, to face problems as if they were opportunities – it’s exactly why they happen – and being enthusiastic about the time that passes, I always late, much more than the White Rabbit.
«You mean you can’t take less» said the Hatter: «it’s very easy to take more than nothing.»
Look at how much more you can have, not how much you have lost.
When you have nothing left, you understand that you can have everything, cause you have nothing else to lose.
Alice: «It’s impossible.»
Mad Hatter: «Only if you think it is.»
Fairfarren, Alice.

ITALIANO
Leprotto: «Prendi più tè.»
«Non ne ho ancora preso niente» rispose Alice in tono offeso, «non posso prenderne di più.»
«Vuoi dire non puoi prenderne di meno» disse il Cappellaio «È facile prendere più di niente.»
Sono stata Elsa (qui), sono stata Malefica (qui), Santa Muerte (qui) e un quadro di Lichtenstein (qui). Ogni anno con una ragione precisa.
Quest’anno sono il Cappellaio Matto. Una decisione presa all’ultimo, quando ormai avevo deciso di non fare nulla. Ma sarebbe stato come abbandonare un’altra scialuppa della mia nave, mi sto lasciando andare a troppe cose e non voglio perdermi in mare senza speranze di salvataggio.
In mezz’ora ho realizzato il trucco e trovato tutto l’occorrente per il costume.
Perché il Cappellaio Matto?
La felicità sembra non finire mai. Perché bisogna essere un po’matti per sorridere ad un funerale e rispondere che la vita è bella.
Bisogna essere un po’matti per amare, bisogna essere un po’matti per vivere. Lo siamo tutti. Ogni volta che ci lasciamo andare ad un sentimento, che seguiamo l’istinto, che crediamo a qualcuno, che pensiamo di capire un altro. Se riuscissimo ad essere matti anche nel dolore guardando solo ciò che va bene, saremmo molto più felice.
Quest’anno sono il Cappellaio Matto perché è esattamente il ruolo che sto recitando, ho bisogno di quella folle allegria per vivere ogni giorno nuovo, per festeggiare quanti più Non-compleanni possibili, per stare bene, per affrontare i problemi come fossero opportunità – è esattamente il motivo per cui accadono – ed essere entusiasta per il tempo che passa, io sempre in ritardo, molto più del Bianconiglio.
«Vuoi dire non puoi prenderne di meno» disse il Cappellaio «È facile prendere più di niente.»
Guardate a quanto altro potete averne, non quanto avete perso.
Quando non avete più niente, capite di poter avere tutto, perché non avete altro da perdere.
Alice: «È impossibile.»
Cappellaio: «Solo se pensi che lo sia.»
Buon viaggio a vederci.
