Para pembaca blog yang budiman,
Selamat bertemu lagi dengan saya, pemandu blog yang anda cintai. Kali ini saya akan menampilkan sebuah kutipan dari novel grafis karya AAlan Moore dan David Lloyd yang berjudul "V for Vendetta". Novel grafis ini sungguh menarik, sebab bukan hanya ceritanya yang menakjubkan tetapi juga dialog-dialog yang ditampilkannya terkesan sangat kuat. Maka tanpa banyak cingcong lagi saya ucapkan selamat menikmati.

Kutipan dari "V for Vendetta"

Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas, I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them... but you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it... ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss, it is a man... A man that made me remember the Fifth of November. A man that I will never forget
