Don, thanks for telling me about the writer. - annierats, Jul 17, 2012
No problem. I think he's very interesting and fun to translate since his pieces are so short. - donrono, Jul 27, 2012

I'll have ago:

The comb is the servant of the dead ideas: The hair that grows out of you hair is dead and represents the ideas which have been lost??

I prefer this one:

La muerte es hereditaria.

Same author, easy to understand, and true..

Great interpretation Annie! Call me dumb...I did not know the term epigram. :-( Now I understand. - 0095ca4c, Jul 16, 2012
Donrono was kind enough to send me a reference to the author, it helped alot. Before that i was lost too. - annierats, Jul 17, 2012
I'm not at all sure about the ideas and the hair anyway, it is rather mysterious. - annierats, Jul 17, 2012
