GENTLEMAN RENOVATES THE CASTLE
Today, only the middle exit of the garden facade and a piece of wall remain from the former prince-sized castle building on Alcsút. Its inhabitants, the former Dukes of Habsburg, hardly thought that their country residence would compete for the title of one of the most picturesque Hungarian castle ruins. It will be a symbol of destruction, created by nature and history together. »
COLLEGE DEES
It is the twenty-third day of October. It didn't really matter in the first thirty years of his life. The next thirty more. They ended up with the police quite often, he and the celebrators.

GOOD LIFE About the Operetta
They are both celebrated stars in the world of musical theater, and although they sing the same roles, jealousy apparently goes far beyond them. They understand each other in half words, big laughs for a moment, entire stories from the past. »

Father Paul FERI
If you think about it, classical gentleman virtues are one to the same as knightly virtues. What used to be courage, today is ambition, moderation is today embodied in a restrained style, women's protection has now become prudence, and social sensitivity is there to help the fallen. »
