A page from the book
The jungle has laws—and breaking one brings the danger closer.
Στη ζούγκλα το κυνήγι του ανθρώπου απαγορευόταν αυστηρά. Όχι μόνο γιατί ο άνθρωπος ήταν πολύ A YNAMO για να δεχτεί επίθεση, 12 αλλά και επειδή συχνά, ακόμη κι αν το θύμα ήταν ένας μόνο άνθρωπος, μετά πήγαιναν στη ζούγκλα ένα σωρό άλλοι για να εκδικηθούν. Ενώ οι δύο λύκοι στέκονταν στο σκοτάδι με τα και σκέφτονταν το απαγοαυτιά ρευμένο κυνήγι του Σιρ Χαν, η σιωπή διακόπηκε από έναν δεύτερο οργισμένο βρυχηθμό. Ο τίγρης πλησίαζε ολοένα και περισσότερο! Ο Μπαμπάς Λύκος, ακίνητος, άκουγε προσεκτικά: – Πρέπει να αστόχησε! Ίσως και να ’ναι πληγωμένος… Εκείνη ακριβώς τη στιγμή η Μαμά Λύκαινα μισοδιπλώθηκε στο σκοτάδι λέγοντας: – Όμως κάποιος είναι εδώ!

The case for trusting the salt on your skin.
“A hundred years from now, people will look back on us and laugh. They’ll say, ‘You know what people used to believe? They believed in photons and electrons. Can you imagine anything so silly?’ They’ll have a good laugh, because by then there will be newer and better fantasies. And meanwhile, you feel the way the boat moves? That’s the sea. That’s real. You smell the salt in the air? You feel the sunlight on your skin? That’s all real. You see all of us together? That’s real. Life is wonderful. It’s a gift to be alive, to see the sun and breathe the air. And there isn’t really anything else.”
The Lost World · Michael Crichton
Why a blank diary can feel like a friend you've half-forgotten.
Harry couldn’t explain, even to himself, why he didn’t just throw Riddle’s diary away. The fact was that even though he knew the diary was blank, he kept absent-mindedly picking it up and turning the pages, as though it was a story he wanted to finish. And while Harry was sure he had never heard the name T. M. Riddle before, it still seemed to mean something to him, almost as though Riddle was a friend he’d had when he was very small, and half-forgotten. But this was absurd. He’d never had friends before Hogwarts, Dudley had made sure of that.

A gift that looks like a compass but measures something else entirely.
It lay heavily in her hands, the crystal face gleaming, the golden body exquisitely machined. It was very like a clock, or a compass, for there were hands pointing to places around the dial, but instead of the hours or the points of the compass there were several little pictures, each of them painted with extraordinary precision, as if on ivory with the finest and slenderest sable brush. She turned the dial around to look at them all. There was an anchor; an hourglass surmounted by a skull; a chameleon, a bull, a beehive... Thirty-six altogether, and she couldn’t even guess what they meant.
