Sve je izglednije da će migranti postati valuta kojom će se siromašne, periferne države Europe nagrađivati za njihovo zadržavanje, a vlasti nadmetati za svaki investicijski kolačić
Ungarns Regierungschef Orbán lässt die Flüchtlingskrise in seinem Land bewusst eskalieren - bis hin zu bürgerkriegsähnlichen Zuständen. Ihm geht es dabei nur um eins: seinen nächsten Wahlsieg.
The classics teaching at that school was excellent, but somehow the classroom routine failed to satisfy, and I formed a resolution which I have always regarded as crucial. I decided that every day I would read privately a quota of Greek or Latin, one hundred lines of verse or four pages of prose in an Oxford Text. I started with four works, taking them in daily rotation: Sophocles' Oedipus Rex, Xenophon's Hellenica, the poems of Catullus, and Cicero's Catilinarian speeches. The reading was conducted on a system of my own devising. It proceeded sentence by sentence, with a dictionary and usually a translation and/or commentary for checking. The sentence would then be read aloud. At the end of a paragraph or other appropriate stopping-place the sentences covered would be read aloud consectutively. At the end of the day's ration I would traverse its contents in a mental review. I have recommended this method to many students, but I am not aware of any that adopted it. For me it worked like a charm. Naturally, the daily quotas were increased as time went on.

What a fantastic way to learn ancient history: via the parallels with modern times. This book was a smash hit when it first came out in 1939, and yet it went out of print, and hasn't been in print in half a century.
Ignore the futuristic visions of governments and developers, it’s humble urban communities who lead the way in showing how networked technologies can strengthen a city’s social fabric
Što je klerikalizam i kleronacionalizam u stvarnosti, ako ga nismo susretali u prethodnom sustavu, mogli smo nekad čitati kod Krleže. Nekad? Malo ga je tko i tada čitao, a danas, pouzdano, nitko. I ne samo njega, ako je to utjeha, nego malo tko uopće što čita. Bilo je to živo, krležijansko, esejistički raskošno ispisivano svjedočenje o vremenu između dva rata.
