Literature is the expression of a feeling of deprivation, a recourse against a sense of something missing. But the contrary is also true: language is what makes us human. It is a recourse against the meaningless noise and silence of nature and history.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Literatur ist Ausdruck eines Gefühls der Benachteiligung, ein Rückgriff auf das Gefühl, dass etwas fehlt. Aber das Gegenteil ist auch richtig: Sprache macht uns zu Menschen. Es ist ein Rückgriff auf den sinnlosen Lärm und die Stille von Natur und Geschichte.

If I have a chance to make a larger amount of money in a legacy fight against the No. 1 welterweight in history, it makes sense for me to want that fight. You have a lot of pay-per-view money coming to this company. Why shouldn't the champion partake in a piece of that pie?

Talking about dreams is like talking about movies, since the cinema uses the language of dreams; years can pass in a second, and you can hop from one place to another. It's a language made of image. And in the real cinema, every object and every light means something, as in a dream.

Federico Fellini

The longer you remain silent, the longer you don't turn over documents, a presumption begins to build that you're withholding something. That's human nature. That may not be a legal presumption, but that's a common sense presumption.
