Being a hero was much easier than being a coward. To be a hero, you only had to be brave for a moment - when you took out the gun, threw the bomb, pressed the detonator, did away with the tyrant, and...
Because love is the meeting point of truth and magic. Truth, as in photography; magic, as in ballooning.
And yet, for all this, for all that he was unparalleled in depicting tyrants knee-deep in blood, Shakespeare was a little naive. Because his monsters had doubts, bad dreams, pangs of conscience, guilt...
And this is where the Silent Ones cause further offense. They do not understand (how could they?) that they have a new function in your life. You need your friends not just as friends, but also as cor...
And this is how I would remember it all, if I could. But I can’t.
And sometimes all that happened was that the misleading old euphemisms were replaced by the misleading new clichés.
And in your opinion, the notion that everything works out in the end, and the counter-notion that nothing ever does, are both equally banal.
And if you had no tongue, no celebrating language, you’d do this: cross your hands at the wrist with palms facing towards you; place your crossed wrists over your heart (the middle of your chest, anyw...
And does history repeat itself, the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce?No, that’s too grand, too considered a process. History just burps, and we taste again that raw-onion sandwich it sw...
And I thought of a cresting wave of water, lit by a moon, rushing past and vanishing upstream, pursued by a band of yelping students whose torchbeams criss-crossed in the dark. There is accumulation....

A facetious if logical question comes into George's mind, from where he cannot tell, unless as a reaction to all this unwonted intensity. If these are indeed the spirits of Englishmen and Englishwomen...
Напереното ми безразличие се превърна във вбесено унижение. Възцари се английско мълчание – такова, през което и двете страни идеално разбират всички неизречени думи. Легнах си и се наревах. Повече не...
