Quote by Nicholas Chong

“Hera also slept well that night as she had brilliantly engineered the coup of her life.Her wayward husband had returned late that evening & announced that he was too tired to make love.He had had a most entangling day,he said, performing his kingly duties.She then told him to have a good night`s rest as she had an important job for him to perform in the morning.It was a job demanded by Chaos & Eros who were responsible for the beginning of things, she said.”

“He was the King of the Gods & could have anything he wanted, but only in theory. Whilst in actual fact, he was the only God who could not have everything he wanted.He had to work hard, since the responsibilities of his office laid heavily on his shoulders.And he could not even play hard, as his jealous wife, Hera, had eyes everywhere.She even had the terrible Argos with the hundred eyes in her service.”

“Then Pandora bade Epimetheus to touch her breasts,as her heart palpitated excitedly beneath her chest, & invited him to fondle her nipples which were firm & turgid.And she then held his quaking hand in hers & took it & placed it over her pubic hair. And she set herself down & opened her thighs wide to allow him to examine her crotch.And she challenged him to find a little cup dripping with Nectar that she hid within the folds of her crotch.”

“At that point, Hermes asked Epimetheus if he was satisfied that whatever had been delivered was in good order & Epimetheus said that he was satisfied but wished that Pandora was also equipped with wings or wheels so that his problems of transportation would also be alleviated.

“All this was very loose guessing, and I don't pretend it was ingenious or scientific. I wasn't any kind of Sherlock Holmes. But I have always fancied I had a kind of instinct about questions like this. I don't know if I can explain myself, but I used to use my brains as far as they went, and after they came to a blank wall I guessed, and I usually found my guesses pretty right.”

“Ei exista, simultan, in doua lumi – lumea aparentelor si lumea adevarului. Firele care conecteaza aceste lumi pot lua multe forme. Atunci cand am ajuns prima oara aici, nu am inteles anumite lucruri. Spre exemplu, nu intelegeam de ce hainele sunt atat de importante. Sau de ce o vaca moarta devenea carne de vita, sau de ce iarba taiata intr-un anumit fel pretinde sa nu se calce pe ea, sau de ce animalele de companie ale unei gospodarii erau atat de importante pentru ei. Umanii se tem de natura si ii linisteste intr-o mare masura atunci cand pot sa isi demonstreze lor inisisi ca detin stapanirea asupra ei. De aceea exista peluzele, si de aceea lupii au evoluat devenind caini, si de aceea arhitectura lor se bazeaza pe forme care nu sunt naturale. Dar, cu adevarat, natura natura pura e doar un simbol pentru ei.”
