Ahora . . .

by Gerhard Richter


(from For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway)
". . . So if your life trades its seventy years for seventy hours I have that value now and I am lucky enough to know it. And if there is not any such thing as a long time, nor the rest of your lives, nor from now on, but there is only now, why then now is the thing to praise and I am very happy with it. Now, ahora, maintenant, heute. Now, it has a funny sound to be a whole world and your life. Esta noche, tonight, ce soir, heute abend. . . "

Formality . . .

(from For Whom The Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway)
[As Pilar, wife of rebel leader Pablo, instructs Agustin on guarding the dynamite to be used in blowing up a bridge]
". . . "where the [insert profanity which Hemingway calls 'un-nameable'] is this vileness that I am to guard?"   "In the cave," Pilar said. "In two sacks. And I am tired of thy obscenity." "I [profanity] in the mild of thy tiredness," Agustin said.  "Then go and befoul thyself," Pilar said to him without heat.  "Thy mother," Agustin replied.  "Thou never had one," Pilar told him, the insults having reached the ultimate formalism in Spanish in which the acts are never stated but only implied. . . "
