About M Pastinha:

«I always had the hope that capoeira would gain its space, or better, it place, of what mestre Pastinha, when living, already spoke about. Before he died he told that he would die, but only in flesh and not in spirit and capoeira would continue. He told that he spoke to João Pequeno that he would die and that he should take care of it, of capoeira.»
M Boca Rica, 2003
«For me, Pastinha is one of the great characters of Bahian folklife.»
Jorge Amado, 1945
«Mestre Pastinha and his students would put the strap [of caxixi] around the little and the ring finger. He talks about this in his book, and it can be seen on the photographies taken in his Academy.»
Shaffer, 1977
