O autorze

Moore, Bob
LET ME SHARE MY BIOGRAPHY WITH YOU IN TERMS OF A 'DIALOGUE IN THE DARK': "IT'S DARK IN HERE. YES, IT TRULY IS. DO YOU LIKE IT? NOT ALWAYS. HOW ABOUT IT NOW? I'M COMFORTABLE. WHY? WELL, I'M IN COMPANY. WOULD YOU MIND CLARIFYING THAT? HMH, ALL ALONE I'M AFRAID OF DARKNESS. HOW COME WE'RE SITTING IN THE DARK? SEEMINGLY, THERE'S NO NEED TO FEAR IT. HOW COME WE HAVEN'T LEFT ALREADY? I'M AFRAID, I CAN'T TELL. ME NEITHER. BY THE WAY, OUTSIDE IT SEEMS TO BE AS DARK AS INSIDE. WHY DON'T WE FIND OUT? SURE, COULD YOU SHOW ME THE WAY? OF COURSE - BUT IT'S DARK. YES, I CAN'T SEE THE DOOR, BUT I KNOW WHERE IT IS. SURE, I KNOW WHERE I CAME FROM TOO. ME TOO, OK, LET'S GO. (OUTSIDE) IT WAS NICE TALKING TO YOU. MY PLEASURE, SEE YOU IN THE DAYLIGHT. SEE YOU IN THE DAYLIGHT." CONSTITUTION, SOUL
BIRTH; SCHOOL; STUDIES; WORK; LIFE; HOPE ... "THERE ARE THESE TWO YOUNG FISH SWIMMING ALONG, AND THEY HAPPEN TO MEET AN OLDER FISH SWIMMING THE OTHER WAY, WHO NODS AT THEM AND SAYS, 'MORNING, BOYS, HOW'S THE WATER?' AND THE TWO YOUNG FISH SWIM ON FOR A BIT, AND THEN EVENTUALLY ONE OF THEM LOOKS OVER AT THE OTHER AND GOES, 'WHAT THE HELL IS WATER?' (DAVID FOSTER WALLACE, THIS IS WATER)
