Het is bijna Walpurgisnacht, en ik sta op het punt te vertrekken om samen met een groep CoS leden poorten van de Hel te openen, en eer te betuigen aan het genot en de menselijke aard.

Voor ik vertrek echter toch nog een citaatje van Magister Nemo:

“If most people took 10% of the time they spent gossiping about things that will never affect them and applied it to improving their situation, they would solve all of their problems in short order.”

Ik kijk ernaar uit de komende dagen opnieuw de hand te schudden van, en gesprekken te voeren en feest te vieren met, deze uiterst scherpe geest. En vele anderen…

Mosley defends ‘eccentric’ sex life
Press Assoc. - Sunday, April 20 06:52 am
Embattled motorsport boss Max Mosley has defended his right to an “eccentric” private life and said he will fight to continue running Formula One.

In his first interview since a newspaper published allegations that he engaged in a “Nazi orgy” with five prostitutes, Mr Mosley admitted the scandal had embarrassed his family.

But he spoke of his pride that “thousands” of lives had been saved on the roads thanks to the work of the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), of which he is president.

Mr Mosley, the son of Sir Oswald Mosley, does not dispute that the events documented by the News of the World occurred, London’s High Court heard earlier this month.

But he maintains they were private and denies the newspaper’s characterisation of his activities as “Nazi role-play”, the court was told.

Mr Mosley told the Sunday Telegraph his wife Jean was “not best pleased” and his sons were “embarrassed” at the revelations.

Speaking of the criticisms he has received, he said: “They’re based on the idea that somehow you can’t have in your life any sort of sexual activity that’s at all eccentric.

“Most people say if somebody likes doing that, if it’s not harming anybody, if it’s in private and it’s completely secret and personal, it’s nothing to do with me.”

The motorsport boss accepted that “a few ex-drivers” had criticised him, but said none of Formula One’s real “opinion formers” had said anything. He added: “My inclination is to stand and fight.”

Mr Mosley, 68, faces a vote of confidence at an extraordinary hearing of the FIA’s general assembly in Paris on June 3.

Ok, het is al enkele weken geleden, maar ik heb het excuus dat ik het druk heb - en dat zal zo blijven tot na Walpurgisnacht. Het is gelukkig wel een zeer leuk soort drukte.

Toch even de tijd om een citaat te posten. Jeremy (Warlock, dacht ik, maar zijn titel is nog niet zichtbaar op het forum waar dit citaat vandaan komt) schreef:

“I’m a Nietzschean when it comes to love. I think most people just don’t have it in them to experience profound or nuanced emotions, or to bear responsibilities or endure suffering. Whatever they experience isn’t love in any serious sense. It doesn’t deserve the name.”

Nu in de rekken! Of toch te bestellen via de site van Purging Talon.
