Quote by Elle Jauffret

“Turn right in one hundred feet,” the navigational system’s Scottish voice cut through Claire’s response. “Being interrupted by a Scottish accent sounds more sexy than rude,” she laughed, picturing a kilted Highlander warrior as the man behind the voice. “Very Outlander-ish.” Suggie giggled along. “I agree. It’s impossible to be angry at a sexy, exotic GPS voice telling you where to go. It’s not road rage. It’s road romance.”

“One of the things I cannnot grasp, though I have often written about them, trying to get them into some kind of bearable perspective," Steiner writes, "is the time relation." Steiner has just quoted descriptions of the brutal deaths of two Jews at the Treblinka extermination camp. "Precisely at the same hour in which Mehring and Langner were being done to death, the overwhelming plurality of human beings, two miles away on the Polish farms, five thousand miles away in New York, were sleeping or eating or going to a film or making love or worrying about the dentist. This is where my imagination balks. The two orders of simultaneous experience are so different, so irreconcilable to any common norm of human values, their coexistence is so hideous a paradox-Treblinka is both because some men have built it and almost all other men let it be-that I puzzle over time.”
