The shadows of human existence are retaken by the Book of Job, where the oppressors give orders to the oppressed using violence (24.2-4.9 and 24.5-8.1012ab). When Damião died, his sister Irene had a newborn baby girl. As a consequence of the events occurred, the baby stopped being breast-fed; as pointed out by Irene before this Court, “due to the emotional shock, I spent weeks without feeding her, and my breasts did not produce milk; my daughter was deprived of natural food and had to take artificial food.”171 Human suffering passes from generation to generation, from the beginning to the end of life. As already predicted by the Ecclesiastes, "… and behold, the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter, and on the side of their oppressors there was power, but they had no comforter" (4,1). 12. Sophocles sensed it well, in the verses of Antigone and also of Oedipus the King: the first stated that "Thrice happy are they who have never known disaster! Once a house is shaken of heaven, disaster Never leaves it, from generation to generation. (...) Then pray no more; from suffering that has been Decreed no man will ever find escape."172 And the second inquired: "Has any man won for himself More than the shadow of happiness, A shadow that swiftly fades away?"173 13. As noted by Edgar Morin in the 20th Century, the history of human culture itself is built on acts of cruelty, not there being a single testimony of culture which is not of barbaric acts. 174 Which led him to add that: "Como la propia vida, el hombre se desenvuelve en el azar, contiene el azar en si mismo, está hecho para encontrarse con el azar, 170 .
