Pena de Robert Shea e Robert Anton Wilson



O Presidente dos Estados Unidos, o Premier da União Soviética e o Secretário Geral do Partido Comunista Chinês:



He was harassed, but still he spoke with authority. He was, in fact, characteristic of the best time of dominant male in the world at this time. He was fifty-five years old, though, shrewd, unburdened by the complicated ethical ambiguities which puzzle intelectuals, and had long ago decided the world was a mean son-of-a-bitch in which only the most cunning and ruthless can survive. He was also as kind as possible for one holding that ultra-Darwinian philosophy; and he genuinely loved children and dogs, unless they were on a site of something that had to be bombed in the National Interest. He still retained some sense of humour, despite the burdens of his almost godly office, and, although he had been impotent with his wife for nearly ten years now, he genreally achieved orgasm in the mouth of a skilled prostitute within 1.5 minutes. He took amphetamine pep pills to keep going on his grueling twenty-hour day, with the result that his vision of the world was somewhat skewed in a paranoid direction , and he took tranquilizers to keep from worrying too much, with the result that his detachment sometimes bordered on the schizophrenic; but most of the time his innate shrewdness gave him a fingernail grip on reality.

P.S.: Esqueçam a nota anterior. Agora há google coiso, o que significa que vocês são todos uns grandas cartógraphos.
