Dear all, I'm very sad that I cannot participate in your discussions for a while. I'm in despondency (as in this quote).
I'll remember you all as highly individualistic personalities. On reflection I like it.

Dear Goldmund. I am, and will be really looking forward to reading your gorgeous, splendid and superb posts!

(Although we've met only once in this Forum, I suppose.. :)

Bye for now!

Dear Roro,

I feel quite at home in the English Forums.
I don't intend to go away.
I think I'll still be here when you next post.
Thank you,

Kind regards,
Goldmund

Hi, wistiti. Nice talking to you!

.. oh, it's hard to translate into English, because there're used specific constructions without subjects. It's from a monolog of Pontius Pilate who made a final decision of putting Christ to death.
(From The Master and Margarita, one of the best novels of 20th century!)

You know, they say:
....................................................................................................
Next to being witty, the best thing is being able to quote another's wit.

What a kind word. What a tender-hearted person you are. You saved my day. I can't thank you enough, wistiti, and I cannot help but smiling :)when I recall your words.


:)...oh I don't care, absolutely! I'll be back, maybe, when I forget everything!

Bye for now, wistiti. With my warmest regards,
Roro

Hi, Roro, Nice talking to you too!

Ref to P. Pilate and Christ, who's which here? aarrgghh!
I don't know that novel, I only know of margarita pizza! (joking, Roro, just joking! I like the quotation)

I gathered from your other posts you had some writing to do? Well, good luck with it, and do tell us how well you succeeded!

PS: what do you have to forget?

Hi, wistiti!
How nice that I noticed your post!

ha-ha, sorry for my luck of explanation. My quote in Russian was from Pilate's monolog, and the quote (about quote) is ... I don't remember the name, but .. I've just checked: C.N. Bovee's.


Thank you very much for your asking! I'm working on my dissertation and my theme is very important for me. I should accomplish it, because except me, nobody won't take up this theme. I have to accomplish it within a year.


Thank you again for your asking!
I was not sure all the time whether I was making a trouble or not here, you know. (It was when my total posts were 66 that I felt first: I hurt others feelings and there was no mending.)
It was very uneasy feeling and I'd like to forget it.

And I noticed that Goldmund managed to make a post while I was searching for the English translation of my Russian quote online! Please don't misunderstand me. I just wanted to protect myself :)I'm in the weak's side. I didn't want to leave some people worrying (or anything else) about me. It's a public place here. I thought I cannot bear that. Please don't misunderstand me (I was a bit surprised at your post).
(I know, maybe it's because my English was not sufficient that you misunderstood me.)
I'm looking forward to seeing you here someday.

Well, wistiti, Goldmund, good evening to you both. Bye for now!

... oh I'm sorry, Goldmund. It seems it's me who misunderstood you. (but I thought: I didn't say that I didn't felt at home here; then why...?) Sorry :)

I'd like to confess Embarrassed [:$] : I used a handle february for several times, actually, but it was quite accidental.
I terminated that account, but they notified me that this account will be invalid after 3 days. Then I had particular questions about English language. It was a caprice of me. Then I found this interesting thread by accident and made a post without expecting any replies.
I can understand how you all are feeling about me and I am to blame for it.
I just wanted to explain myself and make sure that I have no bad feeling.

I'd have been better leaving that unsaid? Then please delete those parts.

With my best regards,
goldmund  +  113766 Thu, 30 Jun 05 12:46 AM
Dear Roro,

It was I who misunderstood. I had not read your message with sufficient care. Smile [:)]

It is true that this is a public place. But we are all friends here. If you hurt someone, he has already forgotten. Smile [:)]

Kindest regards,
Goldmund
