Erich Maria Remarque, “Three Comrades”
The music enchanted the air. It was like the south wind, like a warm night, like swelling sails beneath the stars, completely and utterly unreal... It made everything spacious and colourful, the dark stream of life seemed pulsing in it; there were no burdens any more, no limits; there existed only glory and melody and love, so that one simply could not realize that, at the same time as this music was, outside there ruled poverty and torment and despair.

The Bible is one of the greatest blessings...To throw oneself into...Most parents would not hesitate to assume...If you prick us do we not bleed? If you tickle us...For me, a good thriller must teach me something...A gem cannot be polished without friction...
