The Motorcycle Diaries - Che Guevara
It just goes to show you that even Communists want to end suffering.

Oh, and I am an Anarchist for the record. Not a Communist. Just look up to him because he wanted all to be equal.

I would advice reading it in hebrew, though. The English translation really isn't that great.

Stick to the New Testament, though, and ignore the bit about Jesus condeming a fig tree to death.

You know, just stick to The Faith and Moral Teachings of Jesus and Nazareth, it's a lot better than any normal bible. It's got nothing but the good stuff.


I also reccomend The Lost Girls by Alan Moore.

Jean-Paul Sarte - Nausea

sounds abit poncy, but it contains my favourite bit of any book i've ever read

I lean my forehead
against the windowpane. That old woman annoys me. She trots along obstinately, with unseeing eyes.
Sometimes she stops, frightened, as if an invisible fear had brushed against her. There she is under my
window, the wind blows her skirts against her knees. She stops, straightens her kerchief. Her hands
tremble. She is off again: now I can see her from the back. Old wood louse! I suppose she's going to
turn right, into the Boulevard Victor-Noir. That gives her a hundred yards to go: it will take her ten
minutes at the rate she's going, ten minutes during which time I shall stay like this, watching her, my
forehead glued against the window. She is going to stop twenty times, start again, stop again . . .
I see the future. It is there, poised over the street, hardly more dim than the present. What
advantage will accrue from its realisation:1 The old woman stumps further and further away, she stops,
pulls at a grey lock of hair which escapes from her kerchief. She walks, she was there, now she is here
... I don't know where I am any more: do I see her motions, or do I foresee them? I can no longer
distinguish present from future and yet it lasts, it happens little by little; the old woman advances in
the deserted street, shuffling her heavy, mannish brogues. This is time, time laid bare, coming slowly
into existence, keeping us waiting, and when it does come making us sick because we realise it's been
there for a long time. The old woman reaches the corner of the street, no more than a bundle of black
clothes. All right then, it's new, she wasn't there a little while ago. But it's a tarnished deflowered
newness, which can never surprise. She is going to turn the corner, she turns—during an eternity.
