Isabella Bird Zitate

The situation of Leh is a grand one, the great Kailas range, with its glaciers and snowfields, rising just behind it to the north, its passes alone reaching an altitude of nearly 18,000 feet; while to the south, across a gravelly descent and the Indus Valley, rise great red ranges dominated by snow-peaks exceeding 21,000 feet in altitude.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Situation in Leh ist großartig, die große Kailas-Kette, mit ihren Gletschern und Schneefelder, die unmittelbar dahinter nach Norden ansteigen und ihre Pässe allein eine Höhe von fast 18.000 Fuß erreichen. Im Süden, über einen schotterigen Abstieg und das Indus-Tal, erheben sich große rote Gebirgsketten, die von Schneegipfeln beherrscht werden, die in der Höhe 21.000 Fuß übersteigen.

In his second Inaugural Address, on March 5, 1821, Monroe admitted at last to a general depression of prices, but only as a means of explaining the great decline in the federal revenue. Despite this, he asserted that the situation of America presented a 'gratifying spectacle.'

Murray Rothbard

All I can say to people who don't think depression is a real thing, or say 'just suck it up and get over it' - they just really have no idea. You have to give people the benefit of the doubt that they're doing the best they can to get through it.

Asking anyone what she or he is reading is a necessary part of conversation, exchanging news. So I take recommendations from friends - and I always pass along a book I've loved.

My choice of films has never been governed by money. That is perhaps why I don't have a very fancy bank account. I'd rather get respect and creative satisfaction through my work than just earn money.
