>if you change a few things
ever noticed that if you take the word "newspaper", switch the first p with a c and the second p with a t and get rid of the other letters, it looks the same as the word "cat"? mind=blown
These quotes are in no way similar. Her shit is boring tripe about "being beautiful on the inside." And this translation of Ovid is fucking terrible, it sounds like some Twilight shit.

Thanks to my extensive and intimate knowledge of Tay-Tay's ouvre, I was able to identify all of her verse with ease and without error.

>between us. between Germans and Jews
How does this sentence makes sense?
>>7382440
Yes. Look for the one that's in latin.
>>7382781
Because that period you have there should be a comma
>>7382785
Shit, but besides that. Non-native English speaker here.
>>7382804
He says the struggle is between us, then he indicates who he meens by us. Him being German, them being Jews.
>>7382810
Wouldn't it be better like this:
>between us, Germans, and Jews
That second 'between' sounds repetitive.
>>7382816
Both would work. It is repetitive but not wrong. Could be for style. If it's a real quote it's probably translated from German anyways.
> Buzzfeed
Fuck Anglo culture.
It's not bad enough that they're reading Ovid in translation...
