Siddhartha

1) Write out the passage;
"They went into a little bar and drank an absinthe together. Then they resumed their stroll along the pavement. Morissot suddenly stopped again. 'What about another one?' 'I'm with you on that,' concurred Monsieur Sauvage. So they went into another small bar. Coming out, they both felt extremely giddy, not surprisingly for people drinking on an empty stomach.'' 

 2) Explain the meaning of the passage;
The meaning of this passage from the author 'Guy De Maupassant' is about two friends that have re encountered, by recognizing each other while walking in the streets. While doing so they went on talking to each other and stopped at a bar to talk about the old times when they used to be fisherman, later they stepped out of the bar and both agreed to step back into another bar to have another drink and remember how the old times used to be.

3) Explain why this passage is important to you.
This passage is important to me because I can some what relate to what is said in this passage. I have a friend of mines that we have known each other since we were little kids in the Dominican Republic, and when we have some spare time we spend it by having some drinks in bars and talk about things we experienced back when we were kids and things that happen to us now as adults.

  1. You should have a passage from Siddhartha. Pretty interesting anyway, but not the right thing.
