Name and words to remember

Norman Mailer, american writer, literary rebel

“The Naked and the Dead,” begun when Mailer was 23, opens this way:

Nobody could sleep. When morning came, assault craft would be lowered and a first wave of troops would ride through the surf and charge ashore on the beach at Anopopei. All over the ship, all through the convoy, there was a knowledge that in a few hours some of them were going to be dead.



"La revolución feminista ha convertido a la mujer en ese tipo de hombre que a mí me entristecía cuando era joven, ese que tenía que trabajar de nueve a cinco de manera aburrida y nunca era dueño de su destino. Ahí es donde acabó su revolución, su asalto al poder"


"Si Dieu avait vraiment voulu influencer les hommes avec un livre ­ deux textes, l'Ancien et le Nouveau Testament, qui comportent des bons et de très mauvais passages ­ je pense qu'il aurait fait beaucoup mieux que ça." Liberation
