Anthony Burgess _ The End of the World News
{James Joyce, in conversation with Carl Jung:}"Literary artists know more about the human mind than you fellers have a hope in hell of knowing. Ha. My craft is ebbing. I am yung and easily freudened. One of these days I'll show the lot of you what the unconscious mind is really like. I don't need any of you. In a sense I am Freud."Jung looked gloomily guilty at the name. "Yes?""What's Freud in English?""Joy.""Joy and Joyce. There's little enough difference. Except that I add C and E for Creative Endeavour. I spit in all your eyes.

Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
But the not-self cannot have the bad, meaning they of the government and the judges and the schools cannot allow the bad because they cannot allow the self. And is not our modern history, my brothers, the story of brave malenky selves fighting these big machines? I am serious with you, brothers, over this. But what I do I do because I like to do.

Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
Audiences did not exactly clamour for their money back, but they wondered why Kubrick left out the dénouement. People wrote to me about this-indeed much of my later life has been expended on Xeroxing statements of intention and the frustration of intention-while both Kubrick and my New York publisher coolly bask in the rewards of their misdemeanour. Life is, of course, terrible.

Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
Me, me, me. How about me? Where do I come into all this? Am I like just some animal or dog?' And that started them off govoreeting real loud and throwing slovos at me. So I creeched louder still, creeching: 'Am I just to be like a clockwork orange?
book-quote
Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
Evet evet evet, işte buydu. Gençlik bitmeliydi, ah evet. Ama gençlik, hayvanmış gibi olmaktır zaten sadece. Hayır, sadece hayvanmış gibi olmak değil de hani şu sokaklarda satıldığını dikizlediğimiz minik oyuncaklardan biri olmak gibidir, teneke ve içi zemberekli ve üstünde kurma dolu olan ve gırr gırr gırr diye kurunca gitmeye başlayan, yürüyen filan minik heriflerden biri olmak gibidir, ey kardeşlerim. Ama dosdoğru gider ve bir şeylere çarpar bam bam ve yaptıklarını, elinde olmadan yapar. Genç olmak, bu minik makinelerden biri olmak gibidir. {syf. 167}

Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
Then there was another picture of some veck I thought I knew, and it was this Minister of the Inferior or Interior."
book-quote
Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
You could viddy it all right, all of it, very clear-tables, the stereo, the lights, the sharps and the malchicks-but it was like some veshch that used to be there but was not there not no more. And you were sort of hypnotized by your boot or shoe or a finger-nail as it might be, and at the same time you were sort of picked up by the old scruff and shook like it might be a cat. You got shook and shook till there was nothing left. You lost your name and your body and your self and you just didn't care, and you waited till your boot or your finger-nail got yellow, then yellower and yellower all the time.
book-quote
Anthony Burgess _ A Clockwork Orange
Сын, сын, мой сын. У меня будет сын, и я объясню ему все это, когда он подрастет и сможет понять меня. Однако только лишь подумав это, я уже знал: никогда он не поймет, да и не захочет он ничего понимать, а делать будет все те же vestshi, которые и я делал, – да-да, он, может быть, даже убьет какую-нибудь старую ptitsu, окруженную мяукающими kotami и koshkami, и я не смогу остановить его. А он не сможет остановить своего сына. И так по кругу до самого конца света – по кругу, по кругу, по кругу, будто какой-то огромный великан, какой-нибудь Бог или Gospodd {спасибо бару «Korova»} все крутит и крутит в огромных своих ручищах voniutshi griaznyi апельсин.
