Armenia i/ɑrˈmiːniə/ (Armenian: Հայաստան Hayastan [hɑjɑsˈtɑn]), officially the Republic of Armenia (Հայաստանի Հանրապետություն, Hayastani Hanrapetut’yun, [hɑjɑstɑˈni hɑnɾɑpɛtuˈtʰjun]), is a landlocked, mountainous country in the South Caucasus region of Eurasia. Located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe, it is bordered by Turkey to the west, Georgia to the north, the de facto independent Nagorno-Karabakh Republic and Azerbaijan to the east, and Iran and the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhchivan to the south.
A former republic of the Soviet Union, Armenia is a unitary, multiparty, democratic nation-state with an ancient and historic cultural heritage. The Kingdom of Armenia became the first state in the world to adopt Christianity as its religion, in the early years of the 4th century (the traditional date is 301 AD). The modern Republic of Armenia recognizes the Armenian Apostolic Church, the world's oldest national church, as the country's primary religious establishment. Armenians have their own unique alphabet invented by Mesrob Mashtots in 406 AD.

Plot
Liz Gilbert (Roberts) had everything a modern woman is supposed to dream of having - a husband, a house, a successful career - yet like so many others, she found herself lost, confused, and searching for what she really wanted in life. Newly divorced and at a crossroads, Gilbert steps out of her comfort zone, risking everything to change her life, embarking on a journey around the world that becomes a quest for self-discovery. In her travels, she discovers the true pleasure of nourishment by eating in Italy; the power of prayer in India, and, finally and unexpectedly, the inner peace and balance of true love in Bali.

Let Yourself Go This August
Liz Gilbert: I'm sick of people telling me that I need a man.::Felipe: You don't need a man, Liz. You need a champion.
Tulsi: What did I look like when I was happy?
Liz Gilbert: It won't last forever. Nothing does.
Ketut Liyer: Sometimes to lose balance for love is part of living a balanced life.
Felipe: Listen, balance, my darling, is not letting anybody love you less than you love yourself.
Liz Gilbert: In the end, I've come to believe in something I call "The Physics of the Quest." A force in nature governed by laws as real as the laws of gravity. The rule of Quest Physics goes something like this: If you're brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting, which can be anything from your house to bitter, old resentments, and set out on a truth-seeking journey, either externally or internally, and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher and if you are prepared, most of all, to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself, then the truth will not be withheld from you.
Liz Gilbert: Dear friends and loved ones: My birthday's coming up soon. If I were home, I'd be planning a stupid, expensive birthday party and you'd all be buying me gifts and bottles of wine. A cheaper, more lovely way to celebrate would be to make a donation to help a healer named Wayan Nuriyasih buy a house in Indonesia. She's a single mother. ln Bali, after a divorce, a woman gets nothing, not even her children. To gain custody of her daughter, Tutti, Wayan had to sell everything, even her bath mat, to pay for a lawyer. For years, they've moved from place to place. Each time, Wayan loses clientele and Tutti has to change schools. This little group of people in Bali have become my family. And we must take care of our families, wherever we find them. Today l saw Tutti playing with a blue tile she'd found in the road near a hotel construction site. She told me: Maybe if we have a house someday, it can have a pretty blue floor like this. When I was in Italy, I learned a word - It's "tutti" with double T, which in ltalian means "everybody." So that's the lesson, isn't it? When you set out in the world to help yourself, sometimes you end up helping Tutti.
Liz Gilbert: Maybe my life hasn't been so chaotic. It's just the world that is and the only real trap is getting attached to any of it. Ruin is a gift. Ruin is the road to transformation.
Sofi: Maybe you're a woman in search of a word.
Luca Spaghetti: Americans know entertainment, but they don't know pleasure.
Plot
Mancano pochi minuti alla fine dell'Ottocento e, davanti alla cattedrale di Santiago del Cile, un mendicante sente che sta per lasciare questo mondo. Decide così di raccontare la sua storia. Il pover'uomo è Julius Popper, ingegnere rumeno che nel 1860 aveva inventato un nuovo sistema per estrarre l'oro e si era insediato nella Tierra del Fuego, in Patagonia, in nome della regina Carmen Sylba. Molti i personaggi e gli avvenimenti che gli tornano in mente. Dalla maitresse Armenia, sua amante, all'avventuriero italiano Spiro, dal sergente austriaco Novak alla bellissima india Elisa, al gallese Silveira, nostalgico delle cornamuse. Ma la lotta per il possesso del prezioso metallo lo porterà a scontrarsi con i proprietari terrieri e con gli indios. Popper diventa così il "Re dei Paramos (le lande desolate della Terra del Fuoco)" e si circonda di un esercito fantasma che gli servirà per arrivare allo sterminio degli indios, in nome di un falso progresso.

12. Die Genaue Zeit
Alles wird Muzak
Alle werden gleich
Wie Spaet mag es sein?
Die Macht ist ein laufendes Band
und meine Ohren sind Wunden
Es ist so flach hier
Muzak fuer Leichenschaeuhauser und Neubauten
Angenehm summend hinterlaeszt keine Spuren
akkordnarben - in meinem Gesicht
Es ist so flach heir
Wie spaet mag es sein?
Hoer auf sie Stimme Deines Herrn
Auch lakaien haben taktgefuehl
Wie spaet mag es sein?
Alles wird muzak
Alles sind gleich
Die Macht ist ein laufendes Tonband
Alles wird muzak
Alles sind gleich
Wie spaet mag es sein?
Alle Studios der Welt
im gleichen moment abschalten
Wie spaet mag es sein?
Es ist so flach heir
Zwischen 33 und 45
Oder im 2-stundentakt
Es ist eine Frage von Lautstaerke
und alle sind gleich
gleich
[English translate: The Exact Time]
Everything will be muzak
Everything will be the same
How late would it be?
Power is a conveyor belt
and my ears are wounds
It is so plain here
Muzak for mortuaries and new buildings
A pleasant hum leaves behind no traces
chord marks on my face It is so plain here
How late would it be?
Listen to your master's voice
Even lackeys have a good sense of time
How late would it be?
Everything will be muzak
Everything is the same
Power is a running tape
Everything will be muzak
Everything is the same
How late would it be?
Every studio in the world at the same time shut down
How late would it be?
It is so plain here
Between 33 and 45
or in 2-hour segments
It is a question of volume
and everything is the same
