Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Well, have you seen any of the Austen TV/movie adaptations, then? Legolas - 30/09/2010 10:25:58 PM 972 Views
Oh yes. I even made the mistake of purchasing the new Pride and Prejudice for her. StormCrow - 01/10/2010 12:10:05 AM 963 Views
They are much, much worse than powder soup. Legolas - 30/09/2010 09:50:07 PM 879 Views

I really need to read Kundera. I've heard nothing but praise for Unbearable Lightness. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/09/2010 08:46:18 PM 538 Views
I could post you over a copy to borrow. Rebekah - 30/09/2010 08:58:08 PM 809 Views
That is very kind, but I have far too much to do to read non-school books, unfortunately. Ghavrel - 30/09/2010 10:53:23 PM 894 Views
It is good. *NM* Camilla - 30/09/2010 09:34:47 PM 404 Views
Haven't read any other Kundera, but yes, that one is very enjoyable. *NM* Legolas - 30/09/2010 09:50:30 PM 539 Views

I wish I could do that. StormCrow - 30/09/2010 09:49:57 PM 963 Views
Less fun than you'd think. Ghavrel - 30/09/2010 10:52:10 PM 839 Views

I knew you would have a rather lengthy list. I was worried until the edit came through. StormCrow - 01/10/2010 02:26:34 AM 1038 Views

I'm glad you approve on the whole. Legolas - 30/09/2010 11:12:00 PM 964 Views
I generally do. Camilla - 30/09/2010 11:19:05 PM 962 Views
