Indeed, if they had read Moubayed's article, what might have struck them most is that they appeared only as a supporting cast, their safety and well-being hardly given a nod to.

Secondo me l'atto di scrivere è proprio questo, dico sul serio: un atto di immensa solitudine. Lo scrittore non ha senso se non in queste condizioni. Quello che fai dopo è prostituzione. Ma non appena accetti di esistere, devi accettare la prostituzione. Per me chiunque non si suicidi è in qualche modo uno che si prostituisce.

Every one of them [prostitutes] has a story, and every story begins with a man who failed her. A husband who came home from the war, good for nothin' but drink. A father who didn't come home at all, or a stepfather who did. A brother who should have protected her. A beau who promised marriage and left when he got what he wanted, because he wouldn't marry a slut. If a girl like that has lost her way, it's because some worthless no-account sonofabitch left her in the wilderness alone.

I served four years in the War under the belief, growing ever fainter but held to the end, that it was fought to make such things impossible, and now I am daily witness to the prostitution of the Army I served in to fulfill the many aims I loathed and combated. I am Anglo-Irish by birth. Now I am identifying myself wholly with Ireland....

Las putas nunca debieron irse de aquella casa. El primero y el segundo oficio más viejos del mundo deberían estar juntos. Al fin y al cabo, entre el nacimiento de uno y otro sólo mediaron unas horas. El primero surgió para que cualquiera pudiera satisfacer las exigencias del amor; el segundo, para que nadie intentara satisfacer por su cuenta las exigencias del odio».
