I am home at last, but slept fitfully, and am writing this at 4:30 a.m. This almost always happens when I return after a long trip: there is so much to do! Meanwhile in Dobrzyn, life goes on without me, and the Furry Princess of Poland, who’s apparently been reading her Bible, paraphrases Matthew 4:4:
A: Oh, you are eating your dry food.
Hili: Not by mice alone shall a cat live.
In Polish:
Ja: O, jesz suchą karmę.
Hili: Nie samymi myszami kot żyje.
Don’t waste time reading the bible Hili!
Well, it has some excellent quotes in it which can be mined for uses not originally intended. The bible will live on long after religion has gone over the brink, as a literary source…like Shakespeare.
I notice some rhyming in the Polish version of Hili’s response….
