“As long as we continue to search for enemies anywhere but inside ourselves, there will always be a Middle East problem. Religion is not the solution. Religion without Jesus Christ is just self-righteousness.”

“The Cuchan heat and humidity are so stultifying that house flies lose altitude and tumble to the floor. Shop boys sit heavy lidded and after lunch as unmoving as the cement barriers in the harbor. The city will come to life again only in the evening when its cooler.”

“We quickly notice how very few metaphors Jane Austen uses...we can see that Jane Austen's works do seem to aim at establishing ' a single world of discourse' and that she is not at all concerned to 'join a plurality of worlds'. Such a 'plurality' could lead to a potentially uncontrollable proliferation of ambiguities and possible meanings, whereas the drive of her writing seems to aim at a 'single' sense ... Jane Austen aims at a total transparency...”
― Tony Tanner, Jane Austen
