WE KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE

From Mr. Bender, who occasionally reads to the senile old fossils in his care if they cannot sleep and he's tired of hosing them down after they've dribbled their nutritious porridge, I received information about a political party once active in Eastern Europe. Which, had I been there at the time, I would likely have joined.

"The Svatopluk Čech Bridge was not built overnight. First Svatopluk Čech had to be born, become a famous poet, die, then there had to be an urban renewal, and only then was the Svatopluk Čech Bridge built."

[1911. From the 'Manifest der Partei des maßvollen Fortschritts in den Grenzen der Gesetze (Manifesto of the PMPWBL).]

Note: Svatopluk Čech


I might have even learned Czech and Volapük in order to participate fully in party activities, and argue in favour of the seven point plan in the platform of the candidate for the Vinorhady election district.


Weil wie alle vernünftigen menschen, ich fest davon überzeugt bin, dass es in Cisleithanien nur mäßiger fortschritte im rahmen des gesetzes muss sein.


I too see the admirable qualities of kontusovka and minor-size aquariums.

I am a political animal.

Pet me.
