well no, just a normal paste from a normal email, don't know why styled
text has suddenly become verboten but it weren't that big a deal, just that
it struck me as kinda kool, here tis:


Austrian novelist and journalist Joseph Roth was born in Brody, Ukraine
(1894). His most famous novel is Radetsky March (1932), about the last days
of the Austro-Hungarian Hapsburg monarchy. He worked for many years as a
journalist in Berlin, and wrote a book of essays The Wandering Jews (1927),
about the plight of the embattled European Jews on the verge of extinction.
He writes with particular fondness about the Jews of the shtetl, the small
Jewish towns of Eastern Europe. He wrote: "The shtetl Jews are not rare
visitors of God, they live with him. In their prayers they inveigh against
him, they complain at his severity, they go to God to accuse God. There is
no other people that lives on such a footing with their god. They are an
old people and they have known him a long time!"
