When you pretend to be in love you run the risk of feeling it, he who parodies without proper precautions ends up the victim of his own cunning. And even if he takes them, he ends up a victim just the same. As Pascal said: “It is almost impossible to feign love without turning into a lover.” […] That said, I must also warn you that when you hear me say, for example, that there was never any end to Paris, I will most likely be saying it ironically. But, anyway, I hope not to overwhelm you with too much irony. The kind that I practice has nothing to do with that which arises from desperation — I was stupidly desperate enough when I was young. I like a kind of irony I call benevolent, compassionate, like what we find, for example, in the best of Cervantes. I don’t like ferocious irony but rather the kind that vacillates between disappointment and hope. Okay?

— Enrique Vila-Matas, Never Any End to Paris.

The thing was all the kissing and the holding that was going on in Paris. And it was so romantic, just to be there and see them, even though I was twenty-one and sort of not romantic. But I really loved it, the way the people would just stand under a tree kissing; and they weren’t mauling at each other, they were just kissing.

— John Lennon, interview w/ David Sheff for Playboy. (September, 1980)

J’aime the kisses the Parisians give one another, touching their cheeks, and allowing men to do the same, though they never lock their arms in embrace.

— Henri Cole, Orphic Paris.

After a late lunch, Linda launched into a long paean to the joys of living in England. When she was finished, she turned to John and said, “Don’t you miss England?”

“Frankly,” John replied, “I miss Paris.”

— May Pang, Loving John. (1983)

If so, how I must be striving to not be annihilated by Paris, which I find so overwhelming. My face looks solitary and calm. […] What perplexing messages memories can yield. As I write this, their odors, their shadows, and their sweet music are almost too much to bear.

— Henri Cole, Orphic Paris.

“I don’t have any friends!” John reminded me. “Friendship is a romantic illusion!” He said that he had learned this the hard way after the breakup of his relationship with Paul McCartney, whom he had once regarded as his close friend.

— Fred Seaman, The Last Days of John Lennon. (1991)

To the most romantic corner in Paris where I left my heart and my illusion.

— Octavio Paz. (trans. Henri Cole)

I think, in one way, all of us were under a slight illusion that we might… Maybe it wasn’t an illusion, and maybe had we pushed harder, we would’ve gotten what we wanted, but I’m not sure we – anybody really knew what we wanted. We knew we didn’t like what was happening, but nobody knew quite what – what it was that we wanted. ’Cause we’d never had it.

— John Lennon, interview w/ Jim Ladd. (October 10th, 1974)

Everything ends, I thought.

Everything except Paris, I say now. Everything ends except Paris, for there is never any end to Paris, it is always with me, it chases me, it is my youth. Wherever I go, it travels with me, it’s a feast that follows me. There can be an end to this summer, it will end. The world can go to ruin, it will be ruined. But to my youth, to Paris, there is never any end. How terrible.

— Enrique Vila-Matas, Never Any End to Paris.

very funny that the solution to shatner and nimoys feuding and ego problems behind the scenes was send them to the yaoi mines until they worked it out and this was suggested by acclaimed science fiction writer isaac asimov they will stop fighting over lines and spotlight if you always place the characters together and make their relationship central to the show one cannot think of spock without kirk and kirk without spock and next domino falls slash fiction is invented..

You know, I believe that true focus lies somewhere between rage and serenity.

Regarding my last post on the subject:

ok at this point I'm mildly curious so i wanna ask

#I put 'Some dude' because our mascot was the Vikings #actually loved my school colors and mascot specifically because #by a complete stroke of luck #they were the same as the high school in 'That 70s Show' (which I was obsessed with at the time)

honestly, House's 'I have tenure' attitude is one of the funniest aspects of the character. He comes in late, leaves early, doesn't read his mail, doesn't write reports or do any paperwork, doesn't do conferences, regularly skips out on clinic time and even when it comes to meeting his regular 'one patient per week' quota, he'll either just hide from Cuddy after curing one or if she tells him to do his job he'll just be like "no❤️" and go to his office to play with his yo-yo or bounce balls against the wall or hang out with Wilson on company time. 'I've been through three regime-changes at this hospital'

Anti-work king.
