ellauri011.html on line 566: In his central figure, not-quite-Paulo, he has created (I imagine by mistake) a devastating portrait of a man whose stock in trade is spirituality but who is worldly to his very toenails, exquisitely attuned to his own status. He is constantly reminding himself how many books he has sold, how many languages they have been translated into, and that he is 'despite all the adverse reviews, a possible candidate for a major literary prize'. When he takes up with another woman (strictly to dispel the Zahir, of course), he chooses a successful French actress of 35, on the grounds that she was the only candidate to enjoy his status, 'because she too was famous and knew that celebrity counts'. Celebrity is an aphrodisiac. 'It was good for a woman's ego to be with a man and know that he had chosen her even though he had had the pick of many others.' And the man's ego, does that come into it? Not-quite-Paulo is too gallant to reveal his own age, but if he is indeed a refraction of the author then he is 20 years Marie's senior. It's adorable that he should regard himself so solemnly as the trophy in this pairing.

ellauri119.html on line 141: In the season one episode "Not Yet, He Ain't," Batman and Robin go back to the Batcave to relax with some nice cool milk after surviving an attempt on their lives by the Penguin. What's to love about this exclamation is that Robin is so enraged and yet he's carrying a glass of milk and it just looks adorable instead.

Quand elle disait ou faisait les choses les plus… osées, elle avait d’adorables manières de dire : « J’ai honte ! » que j’entends encore. Phénomène inouï ! Elle fût sortie d’une orgie de bacchantes, comme l’Innocence de son premier péché. Jusque dans la femme vaincue, pâmée, à demi morte, on retrouvait la vierge confuse, avec la grâce toujours fraîche de ses troubles et le charme auroral de ses rougeurs… (Vizi tää hemmo on aika sick. Mutta se on just kuten Huismanni totesi: pyllistely tuntuu vielä rotevammalta kun pyllyn takana kyttää kiivas Jehova piiska handussa. Niin varmaan junioriapinastakin joka pääsee salaa silverbäkin nartun vulvalle. Sisään vaan vaikkei seisokkaan!)

In my heart, I have always believed that he was Raine's father. I was shattered when he, too, died in a plane crash, while on active service during the war.'
