Just a thought to end the week.

"Con tal que las costumbres sean pures y castas, importo muy poco no sean igualmente severas sus obras."

It's too long to fit into the title of my LJ, more's the pity. I think it'd be ideal.

And it means? I can make out some of it but not enough to understand the complete meaning.

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

It means I'm showing off :)

[cygny.livejournal.com]

Aw, but sir, everyone knows of your greatness, no need to show off anything ;)

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

You CREEP!

Babel fish does not love you

Provided the chaste customs are pures and, I matter very little are not equally severe its works

[cygny.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much *bows*

Google trumps babelfish.

"Con tal que las costumbres de un autor," says Don Thomas de las Torres, in the preface to his "Amatory Poems" "sean puras y castas, importo muy poco que no sean igualmente severas sus obras" – meaning, in plain English, that, provided the morals of an author are pure personally, it signifies nothing what are the morals of his books.

Neither does Google-translate

Well done dear. Specialised knowledge is rendered obsolete by google.

Re: Babel fish does not love you

[riksowden.livejournal.com]

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

No, it was trying some of the quote into google and seeing what came up :)

My Library

[gothicpassion.livejournal.com]

Hello kind sir. I have many books, articles, and entries in my library.

From vampire novels of Rice, to short stories of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe. Also, I have entries about phlosophies, morlas/ethics, and so on.

I like the avatar you have, from one gentleman to another, I salute you in respect. (offers hand to be shaken by the other gentleman)

Untin next time...

Robert, The Dark Gentleman

Fantastic new icon :)

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

I thinnk it'll be an occasional. It's Clarke Savage, man of bronze and heroic vampire hunter!

[weejock.livejournal.com]

But on reflection does it fit?
I'd like to think your writings are more morally 'pure' than the author himself...

[arralethe.livejournal.com]

Looks like you being a nonce, but I guess I believe you....

[sue-b.livejournal.com]

Or "Provided that my words are pure, I matter not"

[razornet.livejournal.com]

Splattered all over my shirt as I recall. Never did get to pass on that message to caroline either.

Hang on wasn't he actually a vampire himself.

Oh.. Nevermind.

[souldier-blue.livejournal.com]

hehe, I recognise the pic :-)

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

You never passed on my message? Oh, fie! My dying wish!

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

Why, I'm pure as the driven snow!
