Quoted in April Wilson’s German Quickly:
According to April Wilson, according to Heinrich Heine: “Die Lebensgeschichte Immanuel Kants ist schwere zu beschreiben. Denn er hatte weder Leben noch Geschichte.”
According to me, according to April Wilson, according to Heinrich Heine: “The life story of Immaneul Kant is difficult to describe. This is because he had neither life nor story.”
According to Sex and Society in the World of the Orthodox Slavs, “If a man inserted his finger, hand, or foot into his wife’s vagina, he was to undergo a penance of three weeks of fasting. A similar penance was mandated if he used a piece of clothing.” Foucault’s corpse so just popped a boner.
According to The Bathhouse at Midnight, women in Russia at one time used water that had been used to wash a corpse in a ritual to reduce the size of their breasts. Gross, maybe, but undoubtedly less invasive than breast reduction surgery.
