Books with title Gargoyles

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

The soul of man, in its struggle toward God knows what, paused elatedly to contemplate the new milestone. Elated as all youth is elated for no other reason than that there is a tomorrow, a tomorrow of unknown and multiple milestones. Elated with the knowledge of progress—that sage and flattering word by which the soul of man explains the baffling phenomenon of its survival. The great men of the day stood staring through half-closed eyes at the calendars. To anticipate by a single day! But the future no less than the past remains a current mystery. And the great men—the prophets—confined themselves with stentorian caution to the prophecy—a new century has dawned.

She was crying on the couch. All right. Let her. But she was crying because she wanted something.... His hands grabbed her head and straightened her face until their eyes were looking into each other."Listen," he said. He was shaking her. "I'm going away."Eyes watched each other. She looked until the face she had once kissed became entirely strange. There was no Lief, no lover. But a face staring murderously into hers. But there was something else. Tears behind the stare. Why was he weeping? The question like a tiny visitor sat down in her mind.He let her go and walked from the room, grabbing his hat and coat into his hands as he went.Doris listened. Down the stairs. Outside. He was gone. She went to the window. Her eye had swelled and her cheek pained. She sat down and looked into the street."He hit me," she was whispering to herself. She began to weep with shame. But her tears seemed to soften her heart toward him. He had cried too. She arose and went to the bed. Here she had lain with him. Warm, familiar hours. Here her arms had held him. She threw herself down and wept aloud.Includes a biography of the Author

1922. American screenwriter, director, producer, playwright, novelist, the Shakespeare of Hollywood, who received screen credits, alone or in collaboration, for the stories or screenplays of some 70 films. His novel, Gargoyles begins: The calendars said-1900. It was growing warm. George Cornelius Basine emerged from Madam Minnieâ€s house of ill fame at five oâ€clock on a Sabbath May morning. He was twenty-five years old, neatly dressed, a bit unshaven and whistling valiantly, Wonâ€t you come home, Bill Bailey, wonâ€t you come home? Considering the high estate which was to be his, as the estimable Senator Basine, the introduction savors of malice. But, it must be remembered, this was twenty-two years ago, and moreover, in a day before the forces of decency had triumphed. The Soul of man was still unregenerate. Prostitutes, saloons, hellholes still flourished unchallenged in the cityâ€s heart. And Basine even at twenty-five was not one of those aggravating anomalies who pride themselves upon being ahead of their time; or behind their time. Basine was of his time. This book, "Gargoyles", by Ben Hecht, is a replication of a book originally published before 1922. It has been restored by human beings, page by page, so that you may enjoy it in a form as close to the original as possible. This book was created using print-on-demand technology. Thank you for supporting classic literature.

GargoyleAn illustrated album based on the author’s conscious and unconscious experiences with people that have surrounded her since childhood. We are comprised of imaginations, thoughts and feelings based on the words or actions used by of people whether they were influential or not in our childhood. The author uses the figure of a Gargoyle, due to their grotesque made of stone appearance always an imposing figure looking down upon us from buildings or old houses. The name Gargoyle deriving from the French gargouille, gargouiller, produces a noise similar to the gurgling sound of a liquid in a tube, and this derives from the Latin gargarizo, which in turn derives from the Greek gargle. The Gargoyle’s main function is to act as a draining mechanism for the building’s or house’s roof emitting a gurgling sound and dirty liquid as it cleans the rooftops spilling the dirt on to the streets or upon us.Gargoyles were designed as aesthetic and decorative art pieces, and according to old lores as figures and elements that would scare away demons and evil spirits. This illustrated album, points to the resemblance between the functionality of gargoyles, with people whose personality development has been or are influenced on the development as a child and or young adult. The book demonstrates the frivolities of life and the transmission of worries and unrealistic fears that paralyze each individual’s knowledge and the potential of each individual to reach their goals according to their true potential and not the negativity that has been instilled by past experiences or negative communication. Disqualifying statements such as you can’t or I don’t want to see the same thing that happened to me happen to you, to name a few. Just the same the silence of these statues, is just as destructive as the words that gurgle out of their mouths. From the authors point of view they ignore achievements, disqualify a child's potential and from her experience simply remain silent while allowing for violence and abuses as to not lose control or save face, in cases of violence or family abuse.Like a Gargoyle people that surround us can pretend that they are "cleaning" the roof with some form of a benefit and expectantly hover above others with the expectation of seeing their errors and failures to then shed them upon them. The water pouring or the gurgling sound emitted by the Gargoyle simulates arrows, or darts, destructive words that simulate that what they do and say for the welfare and benefit of others. When the Gargoyles are not draining that dirty water sewage, they remain immobile, simulating the appearance of not doing nothing, sitting in wait, looking to "release" the famous "I told you so" with their eyes fixed on you, in order to frame in others their paradigms and social patterns, in turn "freezing" the dreams and desires in children.Being an illustrated book there are not many words as the images are left to the interpretation of the reader and observer. To the author’s astonishment there are images that can bring out feelings associated with mistreatment or abuse that at the end expedite feelings of frustration or social pressures.In closing the author’s final message through this illustrated book is best described by her following quote: I constantly move forward despite the insanity of those who have told me: you can’t do it Carmen Ramos
