Status Updates From Wiedersehen mit Babylon

“—Sim, mas amo-te mais do que a ninguém. E tu amas-me mais do que a qualquer outra pessoa, não é verdade, agora que a mãezinha está morta?
— Decerto que sim, mas não será de mim que sempre gostarás mais, querida. Crescerás e encontrarás alguém da tua idade, com quem casarás; e hás-de esquecer que já tiveste pai.”

from Babylon Revisited: "Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material. I wish you and I could be on better terms."

'Winter Dreams' knocked me over: "He was one of those young thousands who greeted the war with a certain amount of relief, welcoming the liberation from webs of tangled emotion."

'The Diamond as Big as the Ritz': what a wild ride!

'May Day' was incredibly tragic.
