Macs Quotes

1. "Work, then, institutionalizes homicide as a way of life. People think the Cambodians were crazy for exterminating themselves, but are we any different?

Úgy vonszolom magammal, mint egy vasmacskát. De hiszen csak egy agy vagyok dunsztosüvegben, mondom magamban. Ez a vigaszom. Csak egy agy vagyok egy dunsztosüvegben. A többi rész nem számít. Ez a testem. A többi rész. A dunsztosüveg. Okos vagyok, úgyhogy nem számít, ha kövér is. Kövér vagyok."

11. "Prága utcái olyan fantáziát képeztek, amelyet alig érintett meg a huszonegyedik század – vagy akár a huszadik, esetleg a tizenkilencedik. Alkimisták és álmodozók városa volt, középkori macskakövein gólemek, misztikusok, hódító hadseregek jártak egykor. Magas házak ragyogtak aranyvesszo és kárminvörös és tojáshéjkék színekben, rokokó gipszcsipkékkel díszítve, egyforma piros tetok alatt. Barokk kupolák antik reze zöldellt lágyan, és gótikus tutornyok nyúltak az égbe, hogy felnyársalják a bukott angyalokat. A szél mágia, hegeduk emlékét sodorta, és a macskaköves utcák úgy kanyarogtak, mint megannyi patak. Mozart-parókás banditák kamarazenét játszottak az utcasarkokon, és az ablakokból marionettek lógtak, amelyektol az egész város egyetlen, nagy bábszínháznak tetszett, láthatatlan bábosokkal a bársony mögött. Mindennek fölébe tornyosult a kastély a dombteton, körvonalai élesek voltak, mint a tövisek. éjszaka reflektorfényben fürdött, kísértetiesen."

Season of woolen garments taken out of mothballs; of nocturnal mists and dew and slippery front steps, and late-blooming slugs; of snapdragons having one last fling; of those frilly ornamental pink-and-purple cabbages that never used to exist, but are all over everywhere now."
Author: Margaret Atwood
