"You know, my dear John, that I am a bit of a sybarite - a gourmet. I have always been so. I have a taste for solitary enjoyment, because in that way my enjoyment is twice -ten times- as keen. It is, like this. When I have been wrapped in a haze of golden dreams that have descended on me -when new, intoxicating, momentous thoughts have had their birth in my mind, and I have been fanned by the beat of their wings as they bore me aloft- at such mıments I have transformed them into poetry, into visions, into pictures. In general outlines, that is to say."

ACADEMY, FRENCH: Run it down, but try to belong to it if you can.
ACHILLES: Add “fleet of foot”: people will think you’ve read Homer.
AIR: Beware of drafts of air. The depths of the air are invariably unlike the surface. If the former are warm, the latter is cold, and vice versa.

The Seductive Characters
1-The Siren:
A man is often secretly oppressed by the role he has to play—by always having to be responsible, in control, and rational. The Siren is the ultimate male fantasy figure because she offers a total release from the limitations of his life. In her presence, which is always heightened and sexually charged,
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
Dreams are the byproduct of wasted potential. The result of an active mind laying dormant. Decaying. Dreams are the outgassing from intellect's rotting, bloated corpse.If the world had more science and fewer dreams, we would have long ago ushered in the golden age of unprecedented p--prrrru--progress. Instead, here we are.

Golden Dreams, Antalyalı abuş seracı ailelerden birine aitti. O kadar abuşlardır ki şehrin en düzgün alışveriş merkezinin sahibine, adamın binasında bir köfte-piyazcı açmayı teklif etmiş, ancak onun yönlendirmesiyle Burger King bayisi olmuşlardı.
