Dog Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Brothers, let us glorify freedom’s twilight Brothers, let us glorify freedom’s twilight –the great, darkening year.Into the seething waters of the nightheavy forests of nets disappear.O Sun, judge, people, your light is rising over sombre years Let us glorify the deadly weightthe people’s leader lifts with tears.Let us glorify the dark burden of fate,power’s unbearable yoke of fears.How your ship is sinking, straight,he who has a heart, Time, hears.We have bound swallowsinto battle legions - and we,we cannot see the sun: nature’s boughsare living, twittering, moving, totally:through the nets –the thick twilight - nowwe cannot see the sun, and Earth floats free.Let’s try: a huge, clumsy, turn thenof the creaking helm, and, see - Earth floats free. Take heart, O men.Slicing like a plough through the sea,Earth, to us, we know, even in Lethe’s icy fen,has been worth a dozen heavens’ eternity.

Dog Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 "A good dinner is a rare thing today. Gastronomy is like poetry: it has fallen into a complete decadence...The causes of this decadence are well known: thoughtlessness, fatuity, overweening ambition are only small and ordinary sins; the most complete self-abandonment, the absence of convictions, greed, these are what have troubled the limpid sources from which gastronomic delights should flow with an enchanted murmur. The present generation eats and knows not how to eat . . . It is the enemy of that grande cuisine which was France's glory. The chefs are the cause of this indifference which is blamed on us. They have muddled everything, spoilt everything, exhausted everything."Courrier de Paris 1858 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
