How can one make a Faustian bargain unknowingly? Tom Send a noteboard - 15/11/2019 01:09:22 AM

Isn't the whole point of the Faustian bargain that the person making it should know better than to make it? Isn't that what makes it Faustian?

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

"Homo Fuge" - is this supposed to make sense? "Flee, man!" is the only translation. *NM* - 14/11/2019 04:33:41 PM 217 Views
