- Birth nameTorquato Pereira de Araújo Neto
- Torquato Neto was born on November 9, 1944 in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil. He was an actor and director, known for O Terror da Vermelha (1972), Haarautuvan rakkauden talo (2009) and Três Irmãs (2008). He died on November 10, 1972 in Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
- Although his film debut as a director, the Super 8 entitled "Adão e Eva: Do Paraíso ao Consumo" is considered lost, a co-director of the film saved some storyboards from the film that were later used on a comic book adaptation many years later. The original film was shown to a couple of friends of Torquato and was released in the early 1970's.
- His famous poem "Go Back" was turned into a song by rock group Titãs in the 1980's.
- I STAY. I can't follow my wife's march of progress or I'm a big mummy who only thinks about mummies even alive and beautiful as my wife in her crazy shot to progress. I miss like the Cariocas from the time in which I felt and thought I was a guide of the blind. Then they started to see, and as I was squirming in pain, the banana bunch fell down. In a way I STAY rested around here as long as it lasts. Ana is a SAINT of veil and garland with a packaged clown by her side. I don't believe in the love of mummies, and that's why I STAY and keep on staying because of this love. I had enough! To you out there, I ask the favor of not shaking Thiago too much. He might awake. (Thiago was his 2 year-old son).
