“Every one hath his proper gift from God, one after this manner and another after that” (1 Cor 7:7). It is with some hesitation, therefore, that we determine the measure of nourishment for others. However, making allowance for the weakness of the infirm, we think one hemina of wine a day is sufficient for each one.”

τῇ ῥα παραδραμέτην φεύγων ὃ δ᾽ ὄπισθε διώκων:
πρόσθε μὲν ἐσθλὸς ἔφευγε, δίωκε δέ μιν μέγ᾽ ἀμείνων
καρπαλίμως, ἐπεὶ οὐχ ἱερήϊον οὐδὲ βοείην
ἀρνύσθην, ἅ τε ποσσὶν ἀέθλια γίγνεται ἀνδρῶν,
ἀλλὰ περὶ ψυχῆς θέον Ἕκτορος ἱπποδάμοιο.

Iliad, 22. 157-161; Butler

“You Idlers! You wasters!
You fashion plates! You sit and sip
your wine while the naked back
of an unprotesting soldier of Christ
is lashed with the whip!

“You — who boast of the
blood of Aragorn and the
inheritance of Castile —
make merry while, all
about you, injustice
seethes!

“The heaven kissed hills
of your native California
swarm with the sentinels
of oppression! Are your
pulses dead? Thank God
mine is not — and I pledge
you my blood’s as noble
as the best!

“No force that tyranny
could bring would dare
oppose us — once united.
Our country’s out of joint.
It is for us cabalieros, and
us alone, to set it right!”

Once the recipient of a cheque (the payee) deposits it in his account, his bank immediately credits (increases) the payee’s account, assuming that the payer’s bank will ultimately send the funds to cover the cheque. Until the payer’s bank actually sends the funds, both the payer and the payee have the “same” money in both of their accounts…. float

The word “silhouette” derives from the name of Étienne de Silhouette, a French finance minister who, in 1759, was forced by France’s credit crisis during the Seven Years War to impose severe economic demands upon the French people, particularly the wealthy. Because of de Silhouette’s austere economies, his name became synonymous with anything done or made cheaply and so with these outline portraits. Prior to the advent of photography, silhouette profiles cut from black card were the cheapest way of recording a person’s appearance…. silhouette

By the late 1920s, Garnett was frail, white-haired, and half-blind. She retired from translating after the publication in 1934 of Three Plays by Turgenev. After her husband’s death in 1937, she became quite reclusive. She developed a heart condition, with attendant breathlessness, and in her last years had to walk with crutches…. Constance Garnett

The driving instructor tells Borat he “must not hit the children”; tells Borat he can’t drink when he’s driving because “it’s against the law”; and that he can’t yell out the windows because then they will throw them “both in jail.” He likes Borat, he says, because he’s a nice young man. “Yes,” he tells Borat, “you are my friend.”

The large young black man laughs when he’s compared to Michael Jackson. The older Jewish lady is inexpressibly kindly when she offers Borat food (Borat is terrified by Jews. “Why,” he says, “do you have picture of Jew?”) The driving instructor tells Borat that women have sex with those whom they choose to; it’s called “consent”. “That’s bad for me,” says Borat.

What does Borat learn about love? That there must be forgiveness for those we love (the scene at the church); that our ideas about what love should be fall short of the thing itself (his disappointed love in the celebrity Pamela Anderson); that people should be equal partners in love. In general, he encounters bigotry and resistance to love on his trip.

By the Edwardian standards of the rationally-arrived-at code of values and stable career, young Traverse here was an obviously drifting wreck without much hope of ever being straightened out. What on earth sort of family produced wastrels like this? As long as he was this far from the orbit of an ordinary life, he might as well be pressed into service for a mission… (Against the Day)

William Gaddis, The Recognitions, pp.861:

Yet in a way it was something of this order that he awaited, something less threatening, less sectarian that is, for he could hardly admit to having come, like a vulgar Greek, seeking a sign: no, it was rather some vague, exotic manifestation of some equally vague and exotic Presence, a mystery of euhemeristic proportions and, brought forth in his own prose, amenable to reason.

Wikipedia:

Euhemerism is defined in modern academic literature as the theory that myths are distorted accounts of real historical events.

Lord Jim, 47:

A snorting pony snatched him into ‘ewigkeit’ in the twinkling of an eye, and I never saw him again; and what’s more, I don’t know of anybody that ever had a glimpse of him after he departed from my knowledge sitting inside a ramshackle little gharry that fled round the corner in a white smother of dust.
