Umberto Eco Quotes

The Walls Were Draped With Banners Covered With Cabalistic Signs, An Abundance Of Owls Of All Kinds, Scarabs And Ibises, And Oriental Divinities Of Uncertain Origin. Near The Rear Wall Was A Dais, A Proscenium Of Burning Torches Held Up By Rough Logs, And In The Background An Altar With A Triangular Altarpiece And Statuettes Of Isis And Osiris. The Room Was Ringed By An Amphitheater Of Figures Of Anubis, And There Was A Portrait Of Cagliostro (it Could Hardly Have Been Of Anyone Else, Could It?), A Gilded Mummy In Cheops Format, Two Five-armed Candelabra, A Gong Suspended From Two Rampant Snakes, On A Podium A Lectern Covered By Calico Printed With Hieroglyphics, And Two Crowns, Two Tripods, A Little Portable Sarcophagus, A Throne, A Fake Seventeenth-century Fauteuil, Four Unmatched Chairs Suitable For A Banquet With The Sheriff Of Nottingham, And Candles, Tapers, Votive Lights, All Flickering Very Spiritually.
