car/codfish

What crossed your mind when the editor in chief went back to his car and you retreated to your hotel room with a codfish in your stomach, Yves?
( I am sure the codfish would have left in the car if only you would have eaten the editor in chief).

A sense of relief.

I 'm with you.

I'm sorry for being offtopic, but I saw this article and thought you may want to read this =- http://cup.columbia.edu/book/978-0-231-14840-5/j-m-coetzee-and-ethics
Or did you already know about this publication?

By the way, i appreciate you - as far as i know your work - tremendously. You are a myth - and that provokes my scepticism. It is not that i dislike succes or anything, but i do distrust the mechanisms that bring people into fame.

I regard you as maybe the incarnation ( so to speak ) of Spinoza and Frank - it may have been said before, i don't know. His mathematical exactness ( or rather vaqueness's ) and her, well: frankness. Great cliche?

David

Don't you distrust yourself by distrusting the mechanisms that bring people into fame?

Z!

Thanks!

Dear Mirskikh,

If it was not for the question mark your comment would have been a commandment rather than a fine Catholic fraze in the best Jesuit tradition.

But yes,- you are quessing if though i project my self distrust as far as i can.

@ David Duinker

'You are a myth - and that provokes my scepticism.'
-Dear David Duinker, you are an enigma to me, and that provokes my comments.
-Mr Grunberg is a myth? How the hell did you arrive at this notion?

'I regard you as maybe the incarnation ( so to speak ) of Spinoza and Frank - it may have been said before, i don't know. His mathematical exactness ( or rather vaqueness's ) and her, well: frankness. Great cliche?'
-vaqueness's = vagueness / vaguenesses
Spinoza was some kind of mathematician?!
Which Frank is this? Anne? [??]
And .... what's the cliché here exactly?

'If it was not for the question mark your comment would have been a commandment rather than a fine Catholic fraze in the best Jesuit tradition.'
- fraze = phrase
'a fine Catholic phrase'? What's this?

'But yes,- you are quessing if though i project my self distrust as far as i can.'
- quessing = guessing
- if though = as though
- my self distrust= my self-distrust [myself ?]
- project ... as far as i can ? - Project your what(ever) onto what?
Reading this sentence over and over again I just cannot figure it out.
What does it mean?

Something wrong with your keyboard 'g' ?
Using 'q' instead.
That's something I could understand.

MYTH: I call someone claiming to write faster than reading certainly a myth, yes - but not in a sense of non- existent.

KIND of MATHEMATICIAN: Spinoza was a rationalist, like Descartes and Leibniz, trying to apply basic rules of exact sciences for his thinking. ( He considered the Torah too human ). Maybe you know the Spinoza monument, according to Nicolas Dings the -icosaëder- serves as a symbol for this way of thought.

CLICHÉ:
It is a cliché to make a parallel between three jewish "thinkers", but i was just asking.

BERT@, i was in this rather dark internet - shop, surrounded by clouds of hash fumes and running out of time - i am very very sorry.But let's see what she makes of my riddles. If she,Sasja ( assuming she is female, but i am not sure because i remember a shoe - store with that name ), responds, i will try to give a less enigmatic answer.

Thanks for calling me an enigma.
