Freedom

For me walking is freedom, it's a shortcut to adventure - John Rogers, This Other London.
It must be a poor life that achieves freedom from fear 

Two Cities

In The end of night, Paul Bogard says that

"Though some complain that old Paris has become a museum or even that it's dead, I think it anything but, and I think that especially at night. What's kept alive is the opportunity to add your story to those countless stories before, even to add to your own story if you have been here in the past. Because so much of the old city has been preserved, you can come back to Paris and the night you walked years ago will still be here."

Compare that with Rana Dasgupta's
"My father's failure to revisit Delhi home was only a particular example of a general condition: no one, not even the young, could revisit the Delhi they had come from because it no longer existed"
in Capital.

What movie?

We were going to watch Kahaani, a thriller. We started watching it last week, within a few minutes of which I had to read about the story. And then comes the main voice wanting a rhyme. It turned out to be 'Three pigs and a baby'. We enjoyed watching the movie, as it had a leeway of using coll anthromorphic dude language still employing animal characteristics to humor when the cow contractors keep taking lunch breaks to satisfy their four stomachs.

Hindi and rhyme

Lately while watching Hindi movies, I have been stashing away dialogues in my head.

Ye umar Daba ke goli Chalane ki nahi ...Daba ke goli Khane ki hai..

Kitni pyaari baate karti hai... pyaari nahi kitni saari baate kart hai

And Short the season

I was not  sure if I read ' And Short the Season' by Max Kumine. When I came across Armillaria, 
I realised, I had stopped in the book right at this word, wanting to see a picture of what was being talked about.
