I think the movie needs to be discussed because almost everyone has seen it or heard of it. Tom Send a noteboard - 23/02/2011 05:30:27 PM
People might assume "I saw 'Eyes Wide Shut', I know what happens and don't need to read the book". I want to dissuade them from that.

It was wonderful in that old, high Viennese way. I was patting myself on the back for noticing the Austrian variations on German words (like "heuer" for "this year" ).

Do you know of any other good Austrian writers? I'm looking for more of that Austro-Hungarian feel (as opposed to the German feel of Hesse, Mann and Goethe).
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
