Welcome to Night Vale, episode 40 - The Deft Bowman

You can't get blood from a turnip. Listen, you need some blood? I can totally get you some blood. Set that turnip down and follow me to the blood. There's a lot of blood.

Non puoi cavare sangue da una rapa. Senti, hai bisogno di sangue? Posso tranquillamente trovarti del sangue. Posa quella rapa e seguimi per il sangue. C'è un sacco di sangue.

Welcome to Night Vale, episode 39 - The Woman from Italy

Flying is actually the safest mode of transportation. The second safest is dreaming. The third safest is decomposing into rich earth and drifting away with the wind and rain. Welcome to Night Vale.

Volare è in realtà il mezzo di trasporto più sicuro. Il secondo più sicuro è sognare. Il terzo più sicuro è decomporsi in terra fertile e lasciarsi trasportare dal vento e dalla pioggia. Benvenuti a Night Vale.

Ben Hur

The Jebel es Zubleh is a mountain fifty miles and more in length, and so narrow that its tracery on the map gives it a likeness to a caterpillar crawling from the south to the north. Standing on its red-and-white cliffs, and looking off under the path of the rising sun, one sees only the Desert of Arabia, where the east winds, so hateful to vinegrowers of Jericho, have kept their playgrounds since the beginning. Its feet are well covered by sands tossed from the Euphrates, there to lie, for the mountain is a wall to the pasture-lands of Moab and Ammon on the west - lands which else had been of the desert a part.
Ben-Hur, Lew Wallace
