Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Chapter One A SQUAT grey building of only thirty-four stories. Over the main entrance the words, CENTRAL LONDON HATCHERY AND CONDITIONING CENTRE, and, in a shield, the World State's motto, COMMUNITY, IDENTITY, STABILITY. The enormous room on the ground floor faced towards the north. Cold for all the summer beyond the panes, for all the tropical heat of the room itself, a harsh thin light glared through the windows, hungrily seeking some draped lay figure, some pallid shape of academic goose-flesh, but finding only the glass and nickel and bleakly shining porcelain of a laboratory. Wintriness responded to wintriness. The overalls of the workers were white, their hands gloved with a pale corpse-coloured rubber. The light was frozen, dead, a ghost. "And this," said the Director opening the door, "is the Fertilizing Room.
" "Just to give you a general idea," he would explain to them. Meanwhile, it was a privilege. Tall and rather thin but upright, the Director advanced into the room. Mr. Mr. Cinderella - Brothers Grimm. Brothers Grimm, translated by Margaret Taylor (1884) Cinderella is one of some 209 of the most famous fairy tales collected by Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786-1859), and first published in 1812. This tale has been particularly popular in all of its many forms and adaptations. The character has become an archetypal rags-to-riches figure.
Many young girls/women have dreamed of becoming a modern Cinderella; and other writers have used the archetype to bring the original Cinderella to life. The wife of a rich man fell sick, and as she felt that her end was drawing near, she called her only daughter to her bedside and said, "Dear child, be good and pious, and then the good God will always protect thee, and I will look down on thee from heaven and be near thee.
" Thereupon she closed her eyes and departed. The woman had brought two daughters into the house with her, who were beautiful and fair of face, but vile and black of heart. "The good into the pot, The bad into the crop. " Grimmtmp from cmu.edu - StumbleUpon. This book contains 209 tales collected by the brothers Grimm. The exact print source is unknown. The etext appears to be based on the translation by Margaret Hunt called Grimm's Household Tales, but it is not identical to her edition. (Some of the translations are slightly different, the arrangement also differs, and the Grimm's scholarly notes are not included.)
The etext received by the Universal Library did not include story titles. They have been restored in this edition, based on Hunt's titles. (Thanks also to Steve Nickolas for restoring the end of the last tale in this version.) Note that these tales are presented more or less as the Grimms collected and edited them (and as Hunt saw fit to translate them). NEW: There is now a more accurate version of the Hunt translation posted by William Barker. Questionnaires for Writing Character Profiles - Creative Writing Help.

Yay! Something is... off.
Why am I choosing these strange, non-rounded times to write my entries, now? Motion is as it is supposed to be, but my ultimate perception of it is defying explanation. As the effects intensify, I am forced to grin at the possible futility of logging my experience. The computer screen appears to have turned a mild, but no less dazzling array of colors. What I am appearing to experience is a complete and utter defiance of every physical law I was told was fundamentally irrefutable. I think I'm still making sense, but I am... not entirely sure of this anymore. I was completely and utterly enthralled and entertained by nothing. ...no.
