When we are physically and mentally well, we take care of our appearance, preening and grooming ourselves accordingly. Humans are not unique in this regard, as birds and mammals engage in like behaviors. When we are physically or mentally ill, on the other hand, the posture of the torso and shoulders, as well as our overall appearance, may signal our poor health (American Psychiatric Association, 2000, 304–307, 350–352). Many unfortunate homeless people are afflicted with schizophrenia and rarely do they attend to their attire. Their clothes are soiled and grimy, and many of these individuals will even fight attempts by others to get them to bathe or wear clean clothing. The mentally depressed person will stoop as he walks or stands, the weight of the world seemingly bringing him down. The phenomenon of poor grooming during illness and sadness has been noted around the world by anthropologists, social workers, and health-care providers. When the brain is saddened or we are ill, preening and presentation are among the first things to go (Darwin 1872, chap. 3, passim).
“This is a world where things move at their own pace, including a tiny lift Fortey and I shared with a scholarly looking elderly man with whom Fortey chatted genially and familiarly as we proceeded upwards at about the rate that sediments are laid down. When the man departed, Fortey said to me: "That was a very nice chap named Norman who's spent forty-two years studying one species of plant, St. John's wort. He retired in 1989, but he still comes in every week." "How do you spend forty-two years on one species of plant?" I asked. "It's remarkable, isn't it?" Fortey agreed. He thought for a moment. "He's very thorough apparently." The lift door opened to reveal a bricked over opening. Fortey looked confounded. "That's very strange," he said. "That used to be Botany back there." He punched a button for another floor, and we found our way at length to Botany by means of back staircases and discreet trespass through yet more departments where investigators toiled lovingly over once-living objects.”

chap.25
She'd been crazy to consider it even for a moment. It was time to wrap things up to do what she'd come to do, to remember who she was. A freelance agent, a woman with no qualms about stealing or killing to complete a job. A cool and efficient thief who could take pride in a career with no misses. Ada Wong always walked away with the goods and it would take more than a few hours with one blue-eyed cop to make her forget it.

Enjoy Ur Moments, My Friends !!!
“I think the problem is that people spend so much time worrying about what might happen, what might go wrong, that they completely lose sight of the present. They completely overlook the fact that, actually, right now, everything's fine. You can see that quite clearly in your interrogation exercise. What was it that chap told you? It's not the violence that breaks you. It's the threat of it. So why not just stay in the moment?” ¤ “Bence sorun şu ki, insanlar ne olabileceği, neyin ters gidebileceği konusunda endişelenerek o kadar çok zaman harcıyor ki, şimdiki zamanı tamamen gözden kaçırıyorlar. Aslında şu anda her şeyin yolunda olduğu gerçeğini tamamen gözden kaçırıyorlar. Bunu sorgulama alıştırmanızda açıkça görebilirsiniz. O adam sana ne anlattı? Seni kıran şiddet değil. Bu onun tehdidi. Öyleyse neden sadece anda kalmıyorsunuz?

The Queen's Looking Glass
"...Jane Austen's Anne Elliot understates the case when she decorously observes, toward the end of Persuasion, that "men have had every advantage of us in telling their story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands" (II, chap II

İyi satıcı?
"That’s what good salesman is. Make you buy what he wants to sell. Chap sold me the Swedish razor he shaved me with. Wanted to charge me for the edge he gave it. " (İyi satıcı odur ki.. Onun satmak istediğini sana satın aldıran. Beni tıraş ettiği İsveç usturasını bana sattan o herif. Traş parasınıda istemesin mi." :-))

Most of us can't rush around, talking to everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money or that many friends. The things you're looking for, Montag, are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine per cent of them is in a book.

Enver'in ölümü
Roy, Enver için, "the dangerous Türk" diyordu ve önce bu tehlikeli Türk'ü, Doğu Türkistan'da bir müslüman devlet kurmaktan vazgeçirmeye çalışmıştı. Sonra, "I reported the talk to Chicherin", Çiçerin'e rapor etmişti, "Karakhan was also present", Karahan da yanındaydı. Sonra Lenin'e, "next day I saw Lenin", anlattı. Lenin'in canı sıkıldı, ancak hemen el koymak istemedi, sanki Mustafa Suphi'nin ölüm senaryosu tekrar ediliyordu, Moskova'da bitirmek yakışık almazdı, "letle chap go", bırakınız gitsin, diyordu ve with the illisiont hat he was de ceiving his hosts", ev sahiplerini aldattığını düşünmeye devam etmesi iyi olur, bu da Lenin'in direktifi idi. Bildiklerini, Enver'e hissettirmemeğe karar verdiler. Bundan sonra mı, pratikler üstadı Lenin'in tedbirleri var; Enver, Türkistan'a varmadan, tedbirler tamamlanıyor ve kuvvetler takviye ediliyor, tuzak hazırdır. Ölüm, Enver'i beklemektedir. Enver'in ölümünü, kimseler duymadılar. Artık, "4 Ağustos", resmi ölüm tarihi kabul edilmektedir.
The “Age of Discovery” was rife with the Dunning–Kruger effect writ large. A seemingly endless series of profoundly unqualified, inexperienced and often unhinged men were given expeditions to lead, or colonies to run, on the basis of little more than that they were extremely confident and seemed like the right sort of chap.
