Englisches Zitat von Virginia Woolf als Bild

It is curious how instinctively one protects the image of oneself from idolatry or any other handling that could make it ridiculous, or too unlike the original to be believed any longer.

Virginia Woolf

Deutsche Übersetzung

Es ist merkwürdig, wie instinktiv man das Bild von sich selbst vor Götzendienst oder anderen Handlungen schützt, die es lächerlich machen könnten, oder zu unterschiedlich vom Original sind, um noch länger geglaubt zu werden.

Englisches Zitat von James Welch als Bild

My poems were just kind of all over the place. They had no focus, no location, nothing. Kind of a series of images that could have been set anywhere. A lot of the poems were just exercises for myself.

James Welch

For instance, I have never believed that there is only one person for each person in the world. It doesn't make the least sense to me. However, in reality, I fell in love at 45 and I am absolutely certain that my now husband is the only man in the world for me, a truth I find both ridiculous and uplifting.

I think you hear, at least as an undertone, and it's going to grow louder, is that we believe that capitalism is the mantra of the day and anything that creeps towards socialism is a problem.
