  • #12
    Alan             Moore
    “Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. ”
    Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

    “Since mankind's dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. We've seen where their way leads, through camps and wars, towards the slaughterhouse.”
    Alan Moore, V for Vendetta

    Charles Dickens

  • #22
    Charles Dickens
    “Out of my thoughts! You are part of my existence, part of myself. You have been in every line I have ever read, since I first came here, the rough common boy whose poor heart you wounded even then. You have been in every prospect I have ever seen since – on the river, on the sails of the ships, on the marshes, in the clouds, in the light, in the darkness, in the wind, in the woods, in the sea, in the streets. You have been the embodiment of every graceful fancy that my mind has ever become acquainted with. The stones of which the strongest London buildings are made, are not more real, or more impossible to displace with your hands, than your presence and influence have been to me, there and everywhere, and will be. Estella, to the last hour of my life, you cannot choose but remain part of my character, part of the little good in me, part of the evil. But, in this separation I associate you only with the good, and I will faithfully hold you to that always, for you must have done me far more good than harm, let me feel now what sharp distress I may. O God bless you, God forgive you!”
    Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

  • #23
    Charles Dickens
    “The unqualified truth is, that when I loved Estella with the love of a man, I loved her simply because I found her irresistible. Once for all; I knew to my sorrow, often and often, if not always, that I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be. Once for all; I love her none the less because I knew it, and it had no more influence in restraining me, than if I had devoutly believed her to be human perfection.”
    Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

  • #24
    Charles Dickens
    “Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.”
    Charles Dickens, Great Expectations

    “Boy, those French! They have a different word for everything.”
    Steve Martin

  • #26
    Stephanie Perkins
    “The only French word I know is oui, which means “yes,” and only recently did I learn it’s spelled o-​u-​i and not w-​e-​e.”
    Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss

  • #27
    Lewis Carroll
    “Speak in French when you can’t think of the English for a thing--
    turn your toes out when you walk---
    And remember who you are!”
    Lewis Carroll, Through The Looking Glass

  • #28
    Michael Pollan
    “He showed the words “chocolate cake” to a group of Americans and recorded their word associations. “Guilt” was the top response. If that strikes you as unexceptional, consider the response of French eaters to the same prompt: “celebration.”
    Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto

    شمس الدين الذهبي
    “أصابك عشق أم رميت بأسهم - فما هذه إلا سجيّة مغرمِ
    ألا فاسقني كاسات خمر وغني لي - بذكري سليمى والكمان ونغمي
    فدع عنك ذكر العامرية إنني ـ أغار عليها من فمي المتكلمِ
    أغار عليها من أبيها وأمها ـ إذا حدثاها بالكلام المغمغمِ
    أغار عليها من ثيابها ـ إذا لبستها فوق جسم منعّم
    فواللّه لولا اللّه فواللّه ـ لولا اللّه والخوف والحياء
    لقبلتها، للثمتها، لعضتها - لضممتها بين العقيق وزمزم
    وان حرم الله في شرعه الزنا - فما حرّم التقبيلُ يوماً على الفم
    وإن حرمت يوما على دين محمدٍ - فخذها على دين المسيح ابن مريم

    أَعُدُّ اللَيالي لَيلَةً بَعدَ لَيلَةٍ - وَقَد عِشتُ دَهراً لا أَعُدُّ اللَيالِيا
    أُصلّي فما أدري إذا ما ذكرتُها - أثنتّينِ صلّيتُ العشاء أَم ثمانيا

    عشقتك يا ليلى وأنت صغيرة - وأنا ابن سبع ما بلغت الثمانيا
    يقولون ليلى في العراق مريضة - ألا ليتني كنت الطبيب المداويا
    و قالوا عنك سوداء حبشية - ولولا سواد المسك ما انباع غاليا

    بلغوها إذا أتيتم حماها - أنني مت في الغرام فداها
    واذكروني لها بكل جميل - فعساها تحن علي عساها
    واصحبوها لتربتي فعظامي - تشتهي أن تدوسها قدماها
    إن روحى من الضريح تناجيها - وعيني تسير إثر خطاها
    لم يشقني يوم القيامة لولا - أملي أنني هناك أراها

    تسائلني حلوة المبسم - متى أنت فبّلتني في فمي؟
    سلي شفتيك بما حسّتاه - من شفتي شاعر مغرم
    ألم تغمضي عندها ناظريك؟ - وبالرّاحتين ألم تحتمي؟
    فإن شئت أرجعتها ثانيا - مضاعفة للفم المنعم
    فقالت و غضذت بأهدابها - إذا كان حقا فلا تحجم
    سأغمض عينيّ كي لا أراك - وما في صنيعك من مأثم
    كأنّك في الحلم قبّلتني - فقلت و أفديك أن تحلمي”
    تراث
