Othelo - A Farewell to Arms
#2
How do you say auf wiedersehn
To things you'll never see again?
The Wilhelmstrasse in the rain
The day we ran to catch the train
That puffed along the river Seine
Remember Paris

And best of all the Pyrennes
Who could forget such memories
That crazy trip how typical of us
To miss the bus, the plane too
How do you say auf wiedersehn to these?

The wild times, the small things
That popular waltz of the day
It ended as all things
But when does the music go away?

Say au revoir but not goodbye
I've said it till I want to cry
Perhaps the French could tell us what to do
I wish I knew ah liebschen
How do we say auf wiedersehn to you?

(Johnny Mercer)

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.
-- James Lee Burke, Rain Gods

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless.  All you can do is control them or eliminate them.  Innocence is a kind of insanity.
-- Graham Greene
