“Our ancestors, when about to build a town or an army post, sacrificed some of the cattle that were wont to feed on the site proposed and examined their livers. If the livers of the first victims were dark-coloured or abnormal, they sacrificed others, to see whether the fault was due to disease or their food. They never began to build defensive works in a place until after they had made many such trials and satisfied themselves that good water and food had made the liver sound and firm, healthfulness being their chief object.” IfsFirstsMadeSoundWaterDarkObjectsDiseaseArmyTownsVictimFaultsDuesTrialsSatisfiedChiefsPostsFirmAncestorSiteCattleLiverAbnormal Author:Marcus Vitruvius Pollio

“Don't be upset. Don't listen to me. I only meant that I am jealous of a dark, unconscious element, something irrational, unfathomable. I am jealous of your toilet articles, of the drops of sweat on your skin, of the germs in the air you breathe which could get into your blood and poison you. And I am jealous of Komarovsky, as if he were an infectious disease. Someday he will take you away, just as certainly as death will someday separate us. I know this must seem obscure and confused, but I can't say it more clearly. I love you madly, irrationally, infinitely.” IfsKnowsI CanSeemsDarkAirBloodLove YouDiseaseElementsSkinsBreatheUpsetConfusedPoisonUnconsciousSomedayJealousSweatArticlesIrrationalObscureToiletsGermsListen To MeUnfathomableInfectious DiseasesI Am Jealous Author:Boris Pasternak
“As a kid, I imagined lots of different scenarios for my life. I would be an astronaut. Maybe a cartoonist. A famous explorer or rock star. Never once did I see myself standing under the window of a house belonging to some druggie named Carbine, waiting for his yard gnome to steal his stash so I could get a cab back to a cheap motel where my friend, a neurotic, death-obsessed dwarf, was waiting for me so we could get on the road to an undefined place and a mysterious Dr. X, who would cure me of mad cow disease and stop a band of dark energy from destroying the universe.” DifferentWould BeKidsUniverseHouseEnergyStarsWaitingDarkRocksBandDiseaseMy FriendsStandingWindowMadStealingCuresMysteriousObsessedBelongingDestroyingCowsDrsYardsRock StarAstronautScenariosNeuroticExplorersCartoonistDwarfsCabDwarvesGnomeMotelsUndefinedDark EnergyDruggiesMad Cow Disease Book:Going Bovine Source: Going Bovine
