...Apocryphal Protogospel of James says the angel Gabriel first spoke to Miriam by the well. The suggestion that Jesus' childhood may have been dogged by the accusation of bastardy is perhaps implicit in his townspeople's question in Mark 6, "Isn't this Mary's son?" To be called one's mother's son, as opposed to one's father's, was often an implication of bastardy, or at least a sign that one's paternity was unknown, whether divine or not.

...Slovakia and called the Greeks Grecians, he should have known it was only a matter of time before someone administered a midterm exam. And at other moments during the week, when he veered off text, the words just sort of floated out there, untied to any actual ideas. The implicit charge is less that he's stupid than that he's incurious, proudly anti-intellectual.

...keep some semblance of their joy for life. Scenes of sex, dancing and prayer are abundant, as are moments of despair and fear. Half of any story is the presentation, and Mihaileanu presents this story urgently and simply.
