“The newspaper was always behind the news, not in front. You shouldn't ever go to the papers for information. They usually printed what they thought people wanted to see, and they had no explanation to give. It wasn't the king they saw. That wasn't the king at all. It was the king's shadow. [...] The shadow king was a part of the English tradition. The English, the boy said, were fond of shadows. [...] Somebody asked if you were ever talking to a real man or a shadow when you talked to an Englishman [...] Some of them were the man and the shadow at the same time, but more shadow than man. [...] It was always difficult to distinguish between the man and the shadow, and sometimes it was all shadow. (p.49)”

“With Other Words by George G. Asztalos With Other Words we do not see things as they are Because simple as that we only see things as we are We see as they are the sick ambitions To idolize and define about everything With The Same Damn Words But only with Other Words we see as we really are With Other Words everything is in the hands minds and our hearts Everything is Here and Now And There or Then Is really nothing There and Then everything Was or Will Be There and Then Is Nowhere and Never My heart is shamelessly steering at the world with Other Words My heart is a bitch unveiling you’re intimal beautiful parts And if she does not see them she fantasizes shameless with Other Words With The Same intimal beautiful Words is really nothing There and Then Go figure that all that shameless beauty is only in my eyes Go figure that all that shameless beauty is Here and Now Yesterday is dead and tomorrow could be in the course of Creation Well me from Now on I stay to kill myself with a lively joy Because simply as this I am Here and Now with Other Words Because everything Is and goes to hell With a wonder of sickening of shameless of beauty”
