“Some of the ears on the floor caught this scrap of his voice. Some of the ears on the floor were pressed to the ground.”
— Carolyn Forché, “The Colonel“
Some things I noticed 12/05/2020:
- “There was some talk then of how difficult it had become to govern.“
- “we don’t know yet if these vaccines simply prevent getting symptoms or actually stop the spread of the virus from one person to the next.“
- “Australia was seeking to ‘stoke domestic nationalism’, and ‘deflect public attention from the horrible atrocities by certain Australian soldiers’“
- “only the site that set the cookie can read that cookie back, except the way the web is built, sites can include material from other servers“
- “You have to show them that you are patient and that you are curious to learn about their culture.“
- “This wingsuit becomes one with my body when I’m wearing it.“
- “Humans don’t have souls. Try reading history. It’s obvious.” ?
