“In Delirio Familiari by Stewart Stafford
He devoured radioactive pizza,
eyes bulging to breaking point.
Every riddle imploded in a flash,
daymare fission without a joint.
He, the man of conjured letters;
she, his spark that moderates.
Janus creature, clockface duo,
oddballs, but fitting mates.
With dollops of ambrosial agony,
in frenzied closeness, but witty,
The Brain Surgeon’s Cookbook,
A bromide concoction served as ditty.

The thing that they don't understand is Donald Trump is not Nixon, and he is not George W. Bush. And he is not a traditional politician affected by these kinds of assaults the way most politicians are.”
“In democrazia, l'eccezione può diventare la regola; in democrazia, si sottolinea la similitudine di tutti piuttosto che le differenze categoriali; in democrazia, la totalità degli esseri è teoricamente implicita. Ognuno di questi esseri (qui intendiamo "ognuna") può considerarsi individuo, soggetto, cittadino, creatore, uno, una tra tutti e tutte, in un vasto insieme. Ma "ognuna" è anche la persona che è solo l'"uno" singolare, senza l'obbligo di riconoscersi nella molteplicità del collettivo, mentre attinge allo stesso tempo, all'interno di questo collettivo, la possibilità di essere un "uno" singolare. Così l'universale, il particolare e il singolare si elaborano insieme. Tuttavia, l'idea che il percorso di una sola persona, per esempio di una donna fuori dal comune, testimoniasse il riconoscimento del "progresso" per tutte ha prevalso prima ma anche dopo la rottura democratica della Rivoluzione Francese; nella versione liberale, a conti fatti, che si fonda sulle potenzialità di una dinamica personale che diventa esemplare per tutti/e e per ciascuno/a.”

“In den nächsten Tagen hat es morgens mit den Gebetsriemen wunderbar geklappt. Netanel stand früh auf und versprach, sie nach der U-Boot-Fahrt anzulegen. Aus dem Unterseeboot drangen Lieder, die Befehle des englischen Kapitäns hallten durch den Hof.
Wenn er sich die Nase zuhielt, drang seine Stimme wie aus den Tiefen des Meeres. Und, du glaubst es nicht, jetzt war es Salim, der wie eine Möwe über dem Meer schrie. Danach, am offenen Fenster mit Blick auf das Unterseeboot, legte Netanel die Gebetsriemen an. Ich hörte sein "Schma Jisrael, Höre Israel", während ich Öl auf den Salat zum Frühstück träufelte.
Ich kann nicht sagen, dass er große Mengen verdrückte, aber jetzt probierte er wenigstens alles.
Abends hörten wir die Kassette, und wenn ich nicht zu müde war, war ich Lucy im Himmel, winkte zwischen den Zweigen, schwebte über den Knospen des Mandarinenbaums und zwinkerte. Ich gab mir solche Mühe, wie Diamanten zu funkeln. Ich leuchtete aus den Wolken, die im Marmeladenhimmel trieben, und die ganze Welt strahlte aus meinen Kaleidoskopaugen.”

“In depression . . . faith in deliverance, in ultimate restoration, is absent. The pain is unrelenting, and what makes the condition intolerable is the foreknowledge that no remedy will come - - not in a day, an hour, a month, or a minute . . . It is hopelessness even more than pain that crushes the soul.”
