I remember hearing him say he saw himself as the guy in the tribe who couldn't hunt, being nearly blind and not very athletic, but he felt as a storyteller he would have earned his place by the fire.

At some ancient psychological level, sex is the whole point of power. If your mind operates on that level, to win the power game and then turn down the sex would be a bit winning the lottery and then telling the board to keep the money because you were only playing for fun (it would actually be sub...

As to the parents, vison, did you mean you can't forgive him for requiring them (if he did) to stand by him publicly? If not, I have to say in all fairness that I'm sure the last thing he wanted or thought about when embarking on his affair was to put any of his family or himself through such a pub...

The sleaze factor (The John Edwards trial)
Haven't really been paying attention to the political scene lately. But I have to comment on John Edwards. That man is the bottom of the bottom. What particularly offends me - I guess more than anything else - is the sight of his poor old parents standing there looking as though they could die of sh...

Hi, I'm new to the group. I was intrigued by this topic and the comments. After reading your posts on Emma, I have to reconsider my thoughts on her, because I do find her irritating. For me the most irritating character in literature is Don Quixote. I know that the book is considered one of the gre...

Whatever else it is, it's boring, badly written, largely incomprehensible to an English reader reading what could have been a crappy translation. Most of what I remember (read it many years ago) I recall as truly being the tedious ravings of a more or less loony guy. A mish mash of various kinds of ...
