“Erginlenmenin bu evresindeki kadın, psişesinin, onu kendisinden istenilen her şeye boyun eğmeye zorlayan küçük taleplerinden tedirgin olur. Uyum göstermek, tüm kadınlar tarafından akılda tutulması gereken sarsıcı bir kavrayışa yol açar. O da şudur: Kendimiz olmamız, diğer pek çok kişi tarafından dışlanmamıza neden olur, buna karşılık başkalarının istediklerine boyun eğmemiz de kendi kendimizden sürgün edilmemize yol açar. Bu, azap verici bir gerilimdir ve katlanmak gerekir, ama bizi bekleyen seçim çok açıktır.”

The joy I hear on this record heralds a long and welcome peace.”

Fast Food Nation is witness to the rigour and seriousness of the best American journalism, readable, reliable and extremely carefully done.”

BRIDGET: Ok...
ERIC: It is of course hard to imagine Gerry Adams without the beard. The Gerry Adams beard is part and parcel of the Gerry Adams persona.

But without the beard he'd look like she did to me that cold autumnal morning on Cyprus Avenue. Innocent. Irrelevant. Lost.”

Knowledge was not something such parents gave their daughters. He had seen enough of this while serving as a mercenary in Avesterra. Girls from wealthy families had little information and even less common sense in their heads. All they knew how to do was embroider and bat their eyelashes (and they weren’t even supposed to do too much of that).”

But what you don't realise is that this pile of scrap itself serves a purpose. I need my zeros, Eric. They put fear in people; fear of crime and terrorism. They are a stark reminder to the stakeholders that what they despise today, they may end up joining tomorrow. It keeps them obedient. Remember that!”
