"Mrs. --- lived just where the --- main road dipped down into a little hollow, fringed with alders and ladies' eardrops and traversed by a brook that had its source away back in the woods of the old --- place; it was reputed to be an intricate, headlong brook in its earlier course through those woods, with dark secrets of pool and cascade; but by the time it reached --- it was a quiet, well-conducted little stream, for not even a brook could run past Mrs. --- door without due regard for decency and decorum; it probably was conscious that Mrs. --- was sitting at her window, keeping a sharp eye on everything that passed, from brooks and children up, and that if she noticed anything odd or out of place she would never rest until she had ferreted out the whys and wherefores thereof."

It's the first line of a movie.
"With the coming of the Second World War, many eyes in imprisoned Europed turned hopefully, or deserately toward the freedom of the Americas. Lisbon became the great embarkation point. But not everybody could get to Lisbon directly, and so, a tortuous, roundabout refugee trail sprang up." |

Fri 7/6/2007 9:26a | Wow. I was guessing!
Try this book:
"I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and I tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get."

Fri 7/6/2007 9:33p | One of my favorite books of all time-- Ender's Game. One of the most interesting things about this book is how well it predicted how well email would work, and even the web. Very good for a book published in the mid-80s. |
