@@@@@Jason Bourne had to vanish; he had to leave @@@@@Jason Bourne had to vanish; he had to leave himWhen? Not now! Out of the early night, the madness began again!

He makes a start in the late spring of his first year, rediscovers the volume of Housman that nourished him in prep school, but to it he adds poets like Rilke and Blake and Stephen SpenderBy the time he goes home for the summer he has switched his major to English, and he deserts the beach many afternoons, the Sally Tendeckers and her replacements, spends the nights writing short stories They are poor enough, but there is a temporary focus of excitement, a qualified successWhen he returns to Harvard, he makes one of the literary magazines in the fall competitions, glares drunkenly into the spotlight at the initiation, and comes off without making too big a fool of himself The changes come slowly at first, then quicklyHe reads everything, spends a lot of time at Fogg, goes to the symphony on Friday afternoons, absorbs the pleasant connotative smell of old furniture and old prints and the malty odor of empty beer cans in the aged rooms of the magazineIn the spring he wanders through the burgeoning streets of Cambridge, strolls along the Charles, or stands talking outside his house entry while the evening comes, and there is all the magic of freedom Several times he goes out on drunks to Scollay Square with a friend or twoIt is a self-conscious business with old clothing, an undeviating tour of all the bars and dives Practice for finding the sawdust saloons on Third Avenue If there is puke on the floor, they are delighted; they are fraternity men dancing with movie starsBut the moods all changeAfter they become drunk, there is the pleasurable sadness of late spring evenings, the cognition of all hope and longing arrayed against the casual ugly attrition of time God, look at these people, Hearn says, talk of your animal existence | | Saturday, December 25th, 2010 | | 12:19 pm |
@@@@@He knew that none of them liked him, and he @@@@@He knew that none of them liked him, and he hardly cared, but now they hated him and he could feel it as almost a leaden oppression in the air And they had to get upIf they failed, then the thing he had done with Hearn was wrong, and he had been bucking the Army, simply disobeying an orderHe would have to carry the platoon virtually on his back and it was going to be very difficultHe spat, and slit the end off a cardboard K rationAs with everything else, he did this neatly, expertly
Late into the afternoon Ridges and Goldstein struggled along with WilsonThey moved at a torturously slow pace, toting him forward for ten yards or at most fifteen before they set him downAn ant traveling in a straight line would have gone literally as fastThey did not think of quitting or continuing, they hardly ever listened to Wilson's ramblings, there was nothing in all the heat and effort but the dumb imperative to carry him onThey did not talk, they were exhausted beyond speech, they only shambled forward like blind men crossing a strange and terrifying streetTheir fatigue had cut through so many levels, had blunted finally so many of their senses that they were reduced to the lowest common denominator of their existenceCarrying him was the only reality they knew And so for hours they labored forward, ready to collapse at any moment, but somehow never quite falling unconsciousToward the end they had only a dumb wonder that they could abuse their bodies so mightily and have them still function Wilson fell into a fever and drifted along in a heavy swell of fogThe jolting of the litter became dull and leaden, almost pleasantThe few words he heard, the hoarse panting communications between Ridges and Goldstein, the sound of his own voice, indeed all sensations entered his head quite separately like doors opening into individual closetsHis senses were exceptionally vivid, he felt every spasm of their muscles in the tremors of the litter, and obversely the pains of his wound seemed remote, something that came to him outside the envelope of his bodyBut one thing had deserted himHe was completely passive, blissfully tired, and it took him minutes to decide to ask for anything, or to bring his hand up to his forehead to chase an insectAnd when he did, his fingers remained motionless on his face for almost as long before he dropped his arm again He rambled on about anything that came into his mind, talking for minutes at a time, his voice rasping weakly or rising to a shout without any controlAnd the men carrying him listened without understanding the meaning of his words or even caring "They was woman in Kansas when Ah was out at Riley, she used to take me up and live wi' me jus' as if Ah was her husband | | 5:51 am |
@@@@@She looked at Scarlett with
undisguised @@@@@She looked at Scarlett with undisguised curiosityI should wear her out for her impudence, Scarlett thought, but she was so content she couldn't summon up any real angerRhett had held her, comforted her, even laughed at her Just as he used to before things went wrongShe'd been so right to come to the plantationShe should have done it before, instead of frittering away her time at a million tea partiesThe sunlight made her narrow her eyes when she stepped outside the houseIt was strong, already warm on her head although it was still very early She shaded her eyes with her hand and looked around herA soft moan was her first reactionThe brick terrace under her feet continued to her left for a hundred yardsBroken, blackened and grass-grown, it was a frame for a monumental charred ruinJagged remnants of walls and chimneys were all that remained of what had been a magnificent mansionTumbled mounds of smoke- and firestained bricks within the fragments of walls were heart-stopping mementos of Sherman's Army Scarlett was heartsick This had been Rhett's home, Rhett's life -lost forever before he could come back to reclaim itNothing in her troubled life had ever been as bad as thisShe'd never known the degree of pain he must have felt, must still feel a hundred times a day when he saw the ruins of hishome No wonder he was determined to rebuild, to find and regain everything he could of the old possessionsShe could help him! Hadn't she plowed and planted and harvested Tara's fields herself? Why, she'd wager Rhett didn't even know good seed corn from badShe'd be proud to help, because she knew how much it meant, what a victory it was over the despoilers when the land was reborn with tender new growthI understand, she thought triumphantlyI can feel what he's feelingWe can do this togetherI don't mind a dirt floo | | Friday, December 24th, 2010 | | 12:11 pm |

@@@@@They dine in elegant
restaurants and he @@@@@They dine in elegant restaurants and he goes over in a tube beyond the continental shelf, six miles down in the sea, his body imploding into itself “Awright, awright!” screamed Nicolo Dellacroce, twisting on the bed, his obese frame tangling the sheets“Ask your fuckin’ questions, but you give me protection, capisce?” “That depends on the truthfulness of your answers,” said Holland, returning to the bed “I’d be very truthful, Nicky,” observed Alex, limping back to the chair“One misstatement and you sleep with the fishes—I believe that’s the customary phrase “I don’t need no coaching, I know where it’s atDellacroce,” said the CIA chief, taking a small tape recorder out of his pocket, checking the charge and placing it on the high white table by the patient’s bedHe drew up a chair and continued speaking, addressing his opening remarks to the thin silver recorder“My name is Admiral Peter Holland, currently director of the Central Intelligence Agency, voice confirmation to be verified if necessaryThis is an interview with an informer we’ll call John Smith, voice distortion to follow on interagency master tape, identification in the DCI’s classified filesSmith, we’re going to cut through the bullshit to the essential questionsI’ll generalize them as much as possible for your protection, but you’ll know exactly what I’m referring to and I expect specific answersWhom do you work for, MrSmith?” “Atlas Coin Vending Machines, Long Island City,” replied Dellacroce, his words slurred and spoken gruffly “Who owns it?” “I dunno who owns itMost of us work from home—some fifteen, maybe twenty guys, you know what I mean?
