    Toisaalta… pitäisi kai mennä lähimmälle konstaapeliasemalle raportoimaan, että se on kadonnut. Ja että samalla katosi lyhty ja pumppu. Ja että se on jo puoliksi ihminen.

  40. “As already said, however, de Selby provides some genuine mental sustenance if read objectively for what there is to read. In the Layman's Atlas[3] he deals explicitly with bereavement, old age, love, sin, death and the other saliencies of existence.

You cannot eat it or drink it or smoke it in your pipe, it does not keep the rain out and it is a poor armful in the dark if you strip it and take it to bed with you after a night of porter when you are shivering with the red passion. It is a great mistake and a thing better done without, like bed-jars and foreign bacon.'”

    Why exactly did he write as 'Myles na gCopaleen', you say? Wikipedia:
    *O'Brien himself always insisted on the translation "Myles of the Ponies", saying that he did not see why the principality of the pony should be subjugated to the imperialism of the horse.*
