Quotes

  • Юлияhas quoted10 years ago
    Thus, according to Golding, the aim of the narrative is “to trace the defects of society back to the defects of human nature”; the moral illustrated is that “the shape of society must depend on the ethical nature of the individual and not on any political system however apparently logical or respectable.”
  • Visan Mihaelahas quoted20 days ago
    He was clambering heavily among the creepers and broken trunks when a bird, a vision of red and yellow, flashed upwards with a witch-like cry; and this cry was echoed by another.
  • Wyell Garayhas quoted5 months ago
    “Fancy thinking the Beast was something you could hunt and kill!” said the head.
