And fine this morning. Definite. Reimbursed.”

“In a very ugly and sensible age, the arts borrow, not from life, but from each other.”

The oldest law is that which regulates it, and this is still the most important law today and, as such, has remained the basic concern of all movements which have at heart the community of human activities and of human existence in general.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
