@@@@@And what about your two sisters? @@@@@And what about your two sisters? What happened to them?” “It’s a better joke,” replied Peter, his head angled down into his chin, a mischievous smile on his lips“One’s a nun in New Delhi, and the other’s president of her own public relations firm in New York and uses better Yiddish than most of her colleagues in the professionA couple of years ago she told me they stopped calling her shiksaShe loves her life; so does my other sister in India “Yet you chose the militaryI was an angry young man who really believed this country was being dumped onI came from a privileged family—money, influence, an expensive prep school—that guaranteed me—me, not the black kid on the streets of Philadelphia or Harlem— automatic admittance to AnnapolisI simply figured I had to somehow earn that privilegeI had to show that people like me didn’t just use our advantages to avoid, but instead to extend, our responsibilities “Aristocracy reborn,” said Conklin“Noblesse oblige—nobility imposes obligations “That’s not fair,” protested Holland “Yes, it is, in a very real senseIn Greek, aristo means the ‘best,’ and kratia is the word for ‘rule In ancient Athens such young men led armies, their swords up front, not behind, if only to prove to the troops that they would sacrifice with the lowliest of them, for the lowliest were under their commands, the commands of the finest Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 247 Peter Holland’s head arched back into the top of the velvet seat, his eyes half closed“Maybe that was part of it, I’m not sure—I’m not sure at allWe were asking so much for what? Pork Chop Hill? Unidentifiable, useless terrain in the Mekong? Why? For Christ’s sake, why? Men shot, their stomachs and chests blown away by an enemy two feet in front of them, by a ’Cong who knew jungles they didn’t know? What kind of war was that? If guys like me didn’t go up with the kids and say, ‘Look, here I am, I’m with you,’ how the hell do you think we could have lasted as long as we did? There might have been mass revolts and maybe there should have beenThose kids were what some people call niggers, and spics and the foul-ups who couldn’t read or write beyond a third-grade levelThe privileged had deferments—deferments from getting soiled—or service that damn near guaranteed no combatAnd if my being with them—this privileged son of a bitch—meant anything, it was the best gig I ever did in my life Holland suddenly stopped talking and shut his eyesI didn’t mean to rough up past roads, I really did | | Sunday, January 2nd, 2011 | | 3:07 am |

We would take both vehicles right to the @@@@@ We would take both vehicles right to the caves and unload quickly so they could be hidden before morningThe little overhang by the entrance would not hide them from view I rolled my eyes as I thought of the way into and out of the cavesThebig mystery I hadn't been able to solve for myself Tricky–just like the directions he'd given Mel, the lines he'd carved onto the back of her photo albumThey didn't lead to his cave hideout at allNo, instead they made the person following them parade back and forth in front of his secret place, giving him ample opportunity to decide whether or not to extend an invitation inside “What do you think happened?” Jared asked, interrupting my thoughts “What do you mean?” “The recent disappearance the Seeker mentioned I stared ahead blankly“Wouldn't that be me?” “I don't think you would count asrecent, WandaBesides, they weren't watching the freeway before we leftThey're looking for us His eyes narrowed, while mine widened “What have they been doing?” Jared suddenly exploded, slapping his hand loudly against the dashboard “You think Jeb and the others did something?” He didn't answer me; he just stared out across the star-bright desert with furious eyes I didn't understandWhy would the Seekers be looking for humans just because someone had disappeared in the desert? Accidents did happenWhy would they jump to that particular conclusion? And why was Jared angry? Our family in the caves wouldn't do anything to draw attention to themselvesThey knew better than thatThey wouldn't go outside unless there was an emergency of some kind Or something theyfelt was urgent Had Doc and Jeb been taking advantage of my absence? Jeb had only agreed to stop slaughtering people and souls while I was under the same roofWas this their compromise? “You okay?” Jared asked My throat was too thick to answer | | Friday, December 31st, 2010 | | 3:07 am |

Eliot doesn't belong in the same bed with @@@@@ Eliot doesn't belong in the same bed with O'Neill(Laughter) They argue for an hour and Hearn listens to the namesA few are familiar to him, Ibsen and Shaw and Galsworthy, but he has never heard of Strindberg, Hauptmann, Marlowe, Lope De Vega, Webster, PirandelloThe names go on, and he tells himself desperately that he must read
He makes a start in the late spring of his first year, rediscovers the volume of Housman that nourished him in prep school, but to it he adds poets like Rilke and Blake and Stephen SpenderBy the time he goes home for the summer he has switched his major to English, and he deserts the beach many afternoons, the Sally Tendeckers and her replacements, spends the nights writing short stories They are poor enough, but there is a temporary focus of excitement, a qualified successWhen he returns to Harvard, he makes one of the literary magazines in the fall competitions, glares drunkenly into the spotlight at the initiation, and comes off without making too big a fool of himself The changes come slowly at first, then quicklyHe reads everything, spends a lot of time at Fogg, goes to the symphony on Friday afternoons, absorbs the pleasant connotative smell of old furniture and old prints and the malty odor of empty beer cans in the aged rooms of the magazineIn the spring he wanders through the burgeoning streets of Cambridge, strolls along the Charles, or stands talking outside his house entry while the evening comes, and there is all the magic of freedom Several times he goes out on drunks to Scollay Square with a friend or twoIt is a self-conscious business with old clothing, an undeviating tour of all the bars and dives Practice for finding the sawdust saloons on Third Avenue If there is puke on the floor, they are delighted; they are fraternity men dancing with movie starsBut the moods all changeAfter they become drunk, there is the pleasurable sadness of late spring evenings, the cognition of all hope and longing arrayed against the casual ugly attrition of time God, look at these people, Hearn says, talk of your animal existences What do you expect, his friend says, they're the by-product of an acquisitive society, refuse, that's all, the fester in Spengler's world-city Jansen, you're a phony, what do you know about an acquisitive society, there's things I could tell you, it's different, you're a phony, that's all So are you, we're all phoniesThe thing is to get out and join the movement What's the matter, Hearn asks, you going political on me? I'm not political, that's bullshit, everything's bullshitHe waves his arm sweepingly Hearn, cupping his chin in his hand | | Thursday, December 30th, 2010 | | 3:07 am |

@@@@@Nature had given them
no inconsiderable @@@@@Nature had given them no inconsiderable share of beauty, and every Sunday dressed them in their cleanest skins and best attireSunday always brought this comfort to Fanny, and on this Sunday she felt it more than ever Her poor mother now did not look so very unworthy of being Lady Bertram’s sister as she was but too apt to lookIt often grieved her to the heart to think of the contrast between them; to think that where nature had made so little difference, circumstances should have made so much, and that her mother, as handsome as Lady Bertram, and some years her junior, should have an appearance so much more worn and faded, so comfortless, so slatternly, so shabbyBut Sunday made her a very creditable and tolerably cheerful-looking Mrs Price, coming abroad with a fine family of children, feeling a little respite of her weekly cares, and only discomposed if she saw her boys run into danger, or Rebecca pass by with a flower in her hat In chapel they were obliged to divide, but MrCrawford took care not to be divided from the female branch; and after chapel he still continued with them, and made one in the family party on the rampartsPrice took her weekly walk on the ramparts every fine Sunday throughout the year, always going directly after morning service and staying till dinner-timeIt was her public place: there she met her acquaintance, heard a little news, talked over the badness of the Portsmouth servants, and wound up her spirits for the six days ensuing Thither they now went; MrCrawford most happy to consider 358 Mansfield Park the Miss Prices as his peculiar charge; and before they had been there long, somehow or other, there was no saying how, Fanny could not have believed it, but he was walking between them with an arm of each under his, and she did not know how to prevent or put an end to itIt made her uncomfortable for a time, but yet there were enjoyments in the day and in the view which would be felt The day was uncommonly lovelyIt was really March; but it was April in its mild air, brisk soft wind, and bright sun, occasionally clouded for a minute; and everything looked so beautiful under the influence of such a sky, the effects of the shadows pursuing each other on the ships at Spithead and the island beyond, with the evervarying hues of the sea, now at high water, dancing in its glee and dashing against the ramparts with so fine a sound, produced altogether such a combination of charms for Fanny, as made her gradually almost careless of the circumstances under which she felt them Nay, had she been without his arm, she would soon have known that she needed it, for she wanted strength for a two hours’ saunter of this kind, coming, as it generally did, upon a week’s previous inactivityFanny was beginning to feel the effect of being debarred from her usual regular exercise; she had lost ground as to health since her being in Portsmouth; and but for MrCrawford and the beauty of the weather would soon have been knocked up now The loveliness of the day, and of the view, he felt like herselfThey often stopt with the same sentiment and taste, leaning against the wall, some minutes, to look and admire; and considering he was not Edmund, Fanny could not but allow that he was sufficiently open to the charms of nature, and very well able to express his admiration She had a few tender reveries now and then, which he could sometimes take advantage of to look in her face without detection; and the result of these looks was, that though as bewitching as ever, her face was less blooming than it ought to beShe said she was very well, and did not like to be supposed otherwise; but take it all in all, he was convinced that her present residence could not be comfortable, and therefore could not be salutary for her, and he was growing anxious for her being again at Mansfield, where her own happiness, and his in seeing her, must be so much greater “You have been here a month, I think?” said he 359 Jane Austen “No; not quite a monthIt is only four weeks to-morrow since I left Mansfi | | Monday, December 6th, 2010 | | 3:14 am |
