A friend in the book-publishing industry was dining at our house last week
and rhapsodizing about old Joy of Cooking editions, particularly the
illustrations from the '60s. Lo and behold, on my shelf was a 1962 edition
my father had given me.

发帖数: 632 | 5 The following quotation is taken from Marx’s poem
“On Hegel”:
Words I teach all mixed up into a
devilish muddle.
Thus, anyone may think just what he
chooses to think . 4
Here also are words from another epigram on Hegel:
Because I discovered the highest,
And because I found the deepest through
meditation,
I am great like a God;
I clothe myself in darkness like Him . 5 |

Remember the John Lennon epigram:
"Life is what happens to you while you are busy planning other great things."
Life does not wait for anyone, or unfolds according to anyone's plan. |

Beyond friendship, Leonardo kept his private life secret. His sexuality has been the subject of satire, analysis, a... 阅读全帖 |

His fall was not a small one.
We did but build his pedestal,
A narrow and a tall one.
-Tleilaxu Epigram
Alia crouched, resting elbows on knees, chin on fists,
stared at the body on the dune -- a few bones and some
tattered flesh that once had been a young woman. The hands,
the head, most of the upper torso were gone -- eaten by the
coriolis wind. The sand all around bore the tracks of her
brother's medics and questors. They were gone now, all
