Quotes About Chaos

Cry havoc, and let slip the trousers of most outrageous bonkilation!

~ Christopher Moore

Fue un día jodido.

~ Umberto Eco
La juventud ya no quiere aprender nada, la ciencia está en decadencia, el mundo marcha patas arriba, los ciegos guían a otros ciegos y los despeñan en los abismos, los pájaros se arrojan antes de haber echado a volar, el asno toca la lira, los bueyes bailan, María ya no ama la vida contemplativa y Marta ya no ama la vida activa, Lea es estéril, Raquel está llena de lascivia, Catón frecuenta los lupanares, Lucrecio se convierte en mujer.
~ Umberto Eco
Gençler art?k hiçbir ÅŸey öÄŸrenmek istemiyorlar, bilim geriliyor, tüm dünya tepetaklak olmuÅŸ, körler körleri yönetiyor ve onlar? uçuruma sürüklüyorlar, kuÅŸlar, daha uçmay? öÄŸrenmeden yuvadan ayr?l?yor, eÅŸekler çal?yor, öküzler oynuyor.
~ Umberto Eco
Bizler kitaplar için ya??yoruz. KargaÅŸa ve yozlaÅŸman?n egemen olduÄŸu bir dünyada hoÅŸ bir görev bu.

~ Umberto Eco
He was unrelenting in his cause, though his own need for religious faith involved him in contradictions and compromises; though the caste structures in his own family remained in place; and though, in the garbage of Madras, the broken roads, the absence of municipal regulation, the factionalism and plunder of the DMK administration and its successor administrations, something close to chaos could be seen.
~ V.S. Naipaul
It was what he had taught her, what she had picked up from him and incorporated, as words, as passing attitude, into the chaos of words and attitudes she possessed: words that she might shed at any time as easily as she had picked them up, and forget she had ever spoken them, she who had once been married to a young politician and had without effort incarnated an ordinary correctness, and who might easily return to such a role.
~ V.S. Naipaul
