Carrie: There's a moment in every relationship where romancegives way toreality. Big: You know-- You know what? I'm exhausted. You mind if we just call it a night? Okay? Carrie: Sure. Big: Good night. Carrie: Night. That was the first night we slept together and didn't make love. By the middle of the next week, it was three timesin a rowand I was beginning to worry. Miranda: Three times? Try three months. Carrie: No. Miranda: Yes. Now would be a good time to wipe that horrified look off your face. Carrie: I'm sorry, sweetie. I'm sorry, I just-- I didn't know. Where have I been? Miranda: You've been having sex. I've been at Blockbuster renting videos. It's tragic. I'm like two rentals away from a free pound a Gummy Bears. Carrie: Relax. You're just in adry spell. Miranda: I can't believe you said that. You're all freaked out about three times. I'm talking three months. Carrie: That's different. Not doing it when you're with someone means much more than not doing it when you're not with someone. Miranda: What are you worried about? I thought you said everything felt really comfortable and great. Carrie: Normal is the halfway point between what you want and what you can get. Even in the plow position, I could count on Samantha for amazing sexual clarity. Siddhartha: Very good. Let's move on todownward facing dog. Samantha: With him, I could do itevery hour on the hour. Carrie: Do you think it means something if Big and I are sleeping together but we're not sleeping together? Samantha: The truth? Carrie: When have I ever wanted that? Yeah. Okay, tell me. Samantha: I think there's trouble. I mean sex is a barometer for what's going on in the relationship. Carrie: I wasn't going to tell you this, but... I farted. Samantha: Then move your mat away. Carrie: Not now. I did it in front of Big. Samantha: Huge mistake. Carrie: You think? It wasn't a choice. I'm human. It happened. Samantha: No, honey, you're a woman, and men don't like women to be human. We aren't supposed to fart, douche, use tampons or have hair in places we shouldn't. I mean, hell, a guy once broke up with me because I missed abikini wax. Carrie: I knew it. This is a watershed relationship moment I'm never gonna be able to erase. Samantha: Sure you will. Just go over there and fuck his brains out and he'll forget all about it. Men aren't that complicated. They're kind of like plants. 妙语佳句，活学活用 1.

The Nude Maja, ca. 1800. Goya is considered the 18th Century's foremost painter and etcher of Spanish culture, known for his realistic scenes of battles, bullfights and human corruption. Goya lived during a time of upheaval in Spain that included war with France, the Inquisition, the rule of Napoleon's brother, Joseph, as the King of Spain and, finally, the reign of the Spanish King Ferdinand VII. Experts proclaim these events -- and Goya's deafness as a result of an illness in 1793 -- as central to understanding Goya's work, which frequently depicts human misery in a satiric and sometimes nightmarish fashion. From the 1770s he was a royal court painter for Charles III and Charles IV, and when Bonaparte took the throne in 1809, Goya swore fealty to the new king. When the crown was restored to Spain's Ferdinand VII (1814), Goya, in spite of his earlier allegiance to the French king, was reinstated as royal painter. After 1824 he lived in self-imposed exile in Bordeaux until his death, reportedly because of political differences with Ferdinand. Over his long career he created hundreds of paintings, etchings, and lithographs, among them Maya Clothed and Maya Nude (1798-1800); Caprichos (1799-82); The Second of May 1808 and The Third of May 1808 (1814); Disasters of War The Family of Charles IV, 1800. Théophile Gautier described the figures as looking like "the corner baker and his wife after they won the lottery". (1810-20); and The Black Paintings (1820-23). Although he left behind no followers of note, his work influenced artists of the 19th and 20th centuries (especially Picasso), and Goya is sometimes called "the Father of Modern Art."2.
