    They sat in the little diningroom and ate. She'd put on music, a violin concerto. The phone didnt ring.Did you take it off the hook?No, she said.Wires must be down.She smiled. I think it's just the snow. I think it makes people stop and think.Bell nodded. I hope it comes a blizzard then.Do you remember the last time it snowed here?No, I cant say as I do. Do you?Yes I do.When was it.It'll come to you.Oh.She smiled. They ate.

  2. Cormac McCarthy _ No Country for Old Men

    Every moment in your life is a turning and every one a choosing. Somewhere you made a choice. All followed to this. The accounting is scrupulous. The shape is drawn. No line can be erased. I had no belief in your ability to move a coin to your bidding. How could you? A person's path through the world seldom changes and even more seldom will it change abruptly. And the shape of your path was visible from the beginning.

  6. Cormac McCarthy _ No Country for Old Men

    But the second one it was like we was both back in older times and I was on horseback goin through the mountains of a night. Goin through this pass in the mountains. It was cold and there was snow on the ground and he rode past me and kept on goin. Never said nothin. He just rode on past and he had this blanket wrapped around him and he had his head down and when he rode past I seen he was carryin fire in a horn the way people used to do and I could see the horn from the light inside of it. About the color of the moon. And in the dream I knew that he was goin on ahead and that he was fixin to make a fire somewhere out there in all that dark and all that cold and I knew that whenever I got there he would be there. And then I woke up.

  7. Cormac McCarthy _ No Country for Old Men

    Tu credi che quando ti svegli la mattina quello che è successo ieri non conta. Invece è l'unica cosa che conta. La tua vita è fatta dei giorni che hai vissuto. Non c'è altro. Magari pensi di poter scappare via e cambiare nome o non so cosa, di ricominciare daccapo. E poi una mattina ti svegli, guardi il soffitto, e indovina chi è la persona sdraiata nel letto?

    ჩიგურმა სახეში ესროლა. ყველაფერი რაც ოდესმე უელსმა იცოდა ან უფიქრია ან უყვარდა ნელ-ნელა ჩამოიღვენთა კედელზე მის უკან. დედის სახე, პირველი ზიარება, ქალები რომლებიც უყვარდა. იმ მამაკაცების სახეები რომლებიც მის წინ დაჩოქილები კვდებოდნენ. სხვა ქვეყანაში გზისპირა მკვდარი ბავშვის სხეული. საწოლზე ხელებგაშლილი იწვა. თავის ნახევარი წაცლილი ჰქონდა.
