Le bonheur et l'absurde sont deux fils de la même terre. Ils sont inséparables. L'erreur serait de dire que le bonheur naît forcément de la découverte absurde. Il arrive aussi bien que le sentiment de l'absurde naisse du bonheur. " Je juge que tout est bien ", dit Œdipe, et cette parole est sacrée. Elle retentit dans l'univers farouche et limité de l'homme. Elle enseigne que tout n'est pas, n'a pas été épuisé. Elle chasse de ce monde un dieu qui y était entré avec l'insatisfaction et le goût des douleurs inutiles. Elle fait du destin une affaire d'homme, qui doit être réglée entre les hommes.

Hmmm.......... so the English version was not a bad translation after all.......[/QUOTE]

Ah, you absurd little man, you....

Duncan Fletcher's auto?

I started to read that, but got totally hacked off by the constant "I told so-and-so, but he didn't listen, but I was proven right" theme that runs through it.

Sanctimonious self-important knobhead.

Thats true but at least he stirred up a bit of controversy, some of these books can be right dull, he did a pretty good job with england during his time in charge...

although my favourite is Nasser Husseins auto, thats well good...
