"For the great plateful of blue water was before her; the hoary Lighthouse, distant, austere, in the midst; and on the right, as far as the eye could see, fading and falling, in soft low pleats, the green sand dunes with the wild flowing grasses on them, which always seemed to be running away into some moon country, uninhabited of men."
(V.Woolf: To the Lighthouse)

"Music had stirred him like that. Music had troubled him many times. But music was not articulate. It was not a new world, but rather another chaos, that it created in us. Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viola or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?"

"DAS KOPFKISSENBUCH EINER HOFDAME"
*
"Der fünfzehnte Tag ist der Festtag der 'Mochi-Grütze'. Hofdamen, meist sind es die älteren, halten ein Holzstöckchen bei sich versteckt und schlagen damit ihre jüngeren Kolleginnen aufs Hinterteil. Das ist so Sitte an diesem Tag."

au!84 - Others
"The impalpable sustenance of me from all things at all hours
of the day,
The simple, compact, well-join'd scheme, myself disinte-
grated, every one disintegrated yet part of
the scheme,
The similitudes of the past and those of the future,
The glories strung like beads on my smallest sights and hear-
ings, on the walk in the street and the pas-
sage over the river,
The current rushing so swiftly and swimming with me far away,
The others that are to follow me, the ties between me and
them,
The certainty of others, the life, love, sight, hearing of others.
..."

... said the young ladies, moving somewhere between his cocktails and his flowers. 'One time he killed a man who had found out that he was nephew to Von Hindenburg and second cousin to the devil. Reach me a rose, honey, and pour me a last drop into that there crystal glass.'
