"Mi se întâmplă rar. Din ce în ce mai rar. De regulă, ceea ce văd, ceea ce aud, ceea ce trăiesc mă indispune până la depresie. Şi totuşi, fără motiv aparent, fără iluzii şi fără speranţe utopice, mă trezesc, uneori, cuprins de o nerezonabilă încredere în soarta lumii. S-ar spune, pe scurt, că lumea stă într-o tolerabilă cumpănă. Relele ei nu prevalează semnificativ asupra părţilor ei bune."

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 8
Razvan Vasilescu citind povestirile lui Cehov, sensibile si pline de umor, despre oameni simpli si intamplarile lor complicate, pare ca vine chiar din secolul XIX. Si nu vine singur, aduce cu sine un arhivar devenit celebru cu ocazia unui accident provocat de betie, o guvernanta mototoala care este supusa unui test cinic, un functionar care, impins de aburii betiei, ii cere socoteala fostului sau sef, un batran demn si important nevoit sa solicite ajutor pentru nepotul sau neispravit, un functionar sfrijit care se ploconeste in fata fostului sau coleg, ajuns om mare, o actrita ingenua care asteapta declaratia unui comic sacait insa de lipsa unui pahar de vodca, un contraamiral care este invitat la o nunta doar datorita rangului sau, un croitor care traieste din hazul amintirilor, acceptandu-si resemnat umilinta de dragul lor, un raufacator inocent care nu intelege ce fatalitate l-a adus in sala de judecata.

Aproape peste noapte putem deveni bogati si liberi. Întrebarea este: Ce trebuie sa facem? Iata ce: sa muncim zi si noapte, trup si suflet, pentru rasturnarea rasei omenesti!

"Daca îti acorzi un cât de mic ragaz, daca arunci, de jur împrejur, o privire odihnita, curioasa si nepatimasa, vei gasi destule argumente sa te bucuri. Lucrurile (înca) functioneaza. Sarpanta lumii (înca) tine. Mai exista înca oameni întregi, traditii vii, întâlniri miraculoase. Traim într-un sos toxic, dar el contine înca mirodenii subtile, cu efect anesteziant. Marele animal cosmic nu pare înca sa ia în serios agitatia noastra propagandistica, spaimele noastre apocaliptice. Se poate trai. Se poate trai bine. Se poate (înca) trai frumos." (Andrei PLESU)

"Încercat-am sa înteleg de unde vin lacrimile si m-am oprit la sfinti. Sa fie ei responsabili de stralucirea lor amara? Cine ar sti? Se pare însa ca lacrimile sunt urmele lor; dar fara ei nu stiam ca plângem din regretul paradisului. As vrea sa vad o singura lacrima înghitita de pamânt... Toate apuca, pe cai necunoscute noua, în sus. Numai durerea precede lacrimile. Sfintii n-au facut altceva decât sa le reabiliteze." (Emil CIORAN)

Doua idei fixe nu pot sta concomitent laolalta în mintea omului, asa dupa cum doua corpuri nu pot ocupa acelas loc în spatiu, în acelas timp. Trei, sapte si asul alungara repede chipul batrânei moarte din închipuirea lui Hermann. Trei, sapte si asul nu-i ieseau din minte si-i reveneau mereu pe buze. Când vedea o fata tânara, spunea: Cât e de zvelta!... Un adevarat trei de cupa. Daca era întrebat cât e ceasul, raspundea: Sapte fara cinci minute. Toti barbatii burduhanosi îi reaminteau de as. Trei, sapte si asul îl însoteau în somn, luând diferite înfatisari.

"Ne mândrim în asemenea masura cu Eminescu, încât aproape ca nu mai simtim nevoia sa-l citim. Ni se pare ca îl cunoaștem. Nu e el ilustrarea suprema a virtutilor nationale? Nu e el justificarea noastra în absolut? Numai ca, redus la efigie, la poza de manual, poetul risca sa fie uitat. Eminescu nu înseamna doar Luceafarul, Scrisoarea a III-a, Somnoroase pasarele sau Pe lînga plopii fara soș. E mult mai mult si e altfeldecât l-am fixat în memoria noastra. E grav, dar se si joaca, e trist, dar poate fi si binedispus, e solemn si profetic, dar poate sa fie si ironic sau plictisit. Asta am încercat sa arat prin versurile pe care am ales sa le citesc pentru dumneavoastra." (Andrei PLESU)

"Geniul lui Kafka este de a povesti ca pe o poveste reala, de a folosi realismul in descrierea unei situatii enorm fictionale. (...) Din clipa in care axioma metamorfozei imposibile este pusa pe tapet, lucrurile curg de la sine ca in cea mai realista poveste din lume. Care este suprema grozavie pe care poate s-o pateasca un om? Este sa cada intr-o nenorocire, sa isi imagineze ca este sprijinit de cei din jurul lui, ca este sustinut, ca nu e singur pe lume si ca el va iesi pana la urma la liman cu ajutorul celorlalti; ori povestea din Metamorfoza este povestea parasirii treptate.

Ecolul 19 este o alta planeta. Iti trebuie un anume spirit de aventura ca sa te intorci acolo, asumandu-ti riscul de a trai, zi de zi, exact ca oamenii vremii, de a te obisnui cu felul lor energic de a fi, cu regulile lor de conversatie, cu numeroasele lor obiecte de imbracaminte obligatoriu de purtat in acelasi timp pe unul si-acelasi trup, cu caii si cu servitorii lor, cu inima lor moale si cu taria lor de caracter, cu oala lor de noapte si cu balurile lor, cu teribilele lor pistoale si cu neajutorarea ingrozitoare in fata bolii, cu miasmele, cu parfumurile si cu sarurile lor, cu puricii si plosnitele dezgustatoare din hanurile lor, cu privatele din curte, cu scrisorile lor enorme si cu felul atat de direct in care ti se adreseaza chiar tie, cititorule, in romanele lor. Dar riscul cel mare este sa te deprinzi cu increderea lor absoluta intr-un viitor care tie, celui venit de acolo, din viitorul in care credeau ei atat de frumos, iti strange inima. Daca ajungi sa crezi si tu in el, ca ei, reintoarcerea acasa ar putea fi plina de dezamagiri si regrete.

Atunci când gustul rusesc pentru fast, ceremonial și spații infinite se unește cu infailibilul fler imperial britanic, cultul victoriei și al onoarei, e limpede că rezultatul va fi unul invincibil și spectaculos."

Prima poveste e despre o dragoste târzie la Paris. A doua despre îngerii de lângă noi. În cea de-a treia veți simți un puternic miros de terebentină, iar în a patra, parfum de crini regali. A cincea vă aduce în auz un nume care zgârie și unul care mângâie. Prima poveste are miză și pariază pe nenoroc. A doua cade din fantastic în lumea noastră cea de toate zilele. A treia are realism, râs, nerv. A patra inocență, umor, visare. A cincea, cu ironie, face poezie și economie (politică).

"S-a întâmplat la un moment dat ceva iesit din comun. Miracolul Occidentului. Ar fi putut sa nu se întâmple? Cine poate sti? S-a ivit o civilizatie altfel decât celelalte, care a împins omenirea pe drumul unde se afla astazi. Aroganta Occidentului a fost pe masura. În raport cu "ceilalti", puterea lui a atins o cota înspaimântatoare. Ne dam seama astazi ca a fost doar o faza a istoriei. Dar a putut sa para - atât de mare ajunsese sa fie distanta - ca e un dat fundamental al unei umanitati ierarhizate." (Lucian BOIA)

"Trebuie, mai întâi, sa va spun ca va citesc acum un capitol din cartea mea care se numeste Amintiri din pribegie. [...] Capitolul pe care vi-l citesc este ultimul din aceasta carte si, de fapt, este dincolo de pribegie, fiindca e vorba de socul întoarcerii mele în tara, dupa o absenta de patruzeci si cinci de ani. Eram în momentul acela la Paris, secretar general al unei institutii românesti benevole care se numea Casa Româneasca, si, impresionati peste masura de ce se întâmplase la Bucuresti în decembrie 1989, am hotarât sa venim la Bucuresti cu niste masini, aducând în tara lucruri care lipseau partidelor, universitatilor.

un Caragiale foarte autohton…
RO: O colecție foarte interesantă de texte semnate I.L. Caragiale. Dat fiind faptul că mare parte dintre texte par a descrie evenimente desfășurate recent, nu cred că foarte multe lucruri s-au schimbat în societatea românească de la moartea lui.

Grace Evans, an overworked New Yorker looking for a total escape from her busy life, books an Airbnb on a ranch in the middle of Wyoming. When she arrives at the idyllic getaway, she’s pleased to find that the owner is a handsome man by the name of Calvin Wells—and he’s eager to introduce her to his easygoing way of life. But there are things Grace discovers that she’s not too pleased about: a lack of cell phone service. A missing woman. And a feeling that something isn’t right with the ranch.

For Dee Kwan, every day is the perfect day. No, really. She has a house she loves, a job she adores, and a ridiculously attractive “nemesis” who never seems to mind when she wins their favorite online game. How can life possibly get better? (It can’t, obviously. It can only get much, much worse.) Soon Dee is forced to share her adorably cozy home with her parents and estranged grandmother. Then she’s tossed into the deep end at work, tasked with cleaning up a scandal for the intimidatingly chic luxury fashion firm Celeste. If that weren’t enough, she discovers her hot nemesis works there, too.

It's nearly Christmas, Julia Devine's favourite time of the year. She's just programmed a wonderful lead into the holidays at Sunny Street Cinema, which leaves her plenty of time to worry about going home to Cumbria for Christmas. Her mum and stepdad are fine, but the thought of spending another holiday with her awful stepsister Becca is enough to make a Scrooge out of anyone. When Becca calls to let her know about the dreamy pilot she's bringing to Christmas lunch, Julia finally snaps and does something very silly.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

When she arrives at the idyllic getaway, she’s pleased to find that the owner is a handsome man by the name of Calvin Wells—and he’s eager to introduce her to his easygoing way of life.

For Dee Kwan, every day is the perfect day. No, really. She has a house she loves, a job she adores, and a ridiculously attractive “nemesis” who never seems to mind when she wins their favorite online game. How can life possibly get better? (It can’t, obviously. It can only get much, much worse.) Soon Dee is forced to share her adorably cozy home with her parents and estranged grandmother. Then she’s tossed into the deep end at work, tasked with cleaning up a scandal for the intimidatingly chic luxury fashion firm Celeste. If that weren’t enough, she discovers her hot nemesis works there, too.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'
