Right behind the door a purple pheasant spread its colourful wings, and on the walls were bright pictures of horses and hauliers ’ carts, the work of some local painter of shop signs and fairground rifle targets. And the landlord wore a neat clean check apron. | When he ’d drawn the beer for me he ’d come round from behind the bar to place the jug securely in my hands. In the tavern of my childhood there was still a spirit of freedom. | [

He laughed at the heap of rubbish as he picked it up, adding that that was the fate of things, and anyone worrying about it merely harmed himself. I ordered tea for myself while the others, without having to ask, were each served a large beer. | The youngster drank mineral water.

‘ If I hadn’t got drunk, ’ the foreman said, ‘ I most likely wouldn’t have got married at all.

For our honeymoon we flew out to the Tatra mountains. It was the beginning of windy autumnal weather, the larches were turning golden and the meadows were fragrant with ripe grass. | We climbed up to the treeline, to where the forests ended, and above us towered the sharp ridges of bare rock. I lay down in the grass, Lída sang to herself and I felt as if her singing was filling the entire space from the sky down to the base of the rocks, marking out the space in which I would now forever move. | [

So why shouldn’t it be able to do so during life?

It was as if I had a duty to those whom I ’d survived, and had to repay the benevolent forces which had snatched me from the common fate and allowed me to live.

Suddenly I found myself back on Vyšehrad hill.

As I walked around the little church I noticed that the door was half open. I glanced inside – there was an untidy heap of builders ’ requisites, scaffolding and buckets, and some of the pews were covered with a tarpaulin. | On one side of the altar I caught sight of my companion of the morning, the one who reminded me of the specialist who took out my tonsils. Now without his orange vest he was evidently engaged in meditation. | [

Mr President, like so many others here today, I believe this is a good measure. This is a useful measure and it is one which we all need. | Most of the technical issues have been resolved. | [

Mr President, we are indeed now in a very rare situation : those who wish to uphold environmental values will take the side of the Council in their common position.

Mr President, this is an extremely bad directive. First of all, as my colleague Mr Bowis has pointed out, it is retrospective and that is wrong in principle. Secondly, it dumps huge costs on the European motor industry which would damage competitiveness and damage employment. | In this Parliament we constantly talk about the need to promote employment and jobs in Europe and yet we constantly pass measures which will have the effect of reducing employment. | [

Mr President, I was a little disappointed with the answer given by the President- in- Office to my colleague. It is very important, if we stress that Europe is to be a Europe of values, that we do not go down the road of saying that means justify ends. | If civilian targets were targeted and destroyed, killing civilians is illegal by anyone's standards. It should not be defended even by those of us who deeply deplore the Milosevic regime. | [

Mr President, the shipwreck of the Erika off the coast of Brittany on 12 December caused an oil slick whose effects on the environment will be felt for years. In addition to destroying natural resources, this accident has had a serious impact on certain economic sectors, particularly those dependent on fisheries. | With 20 000 tonnes of crude oil left in the holds of the sunken vessel, the situation could still deteriorate. | [

The Erika oil spill is one of a catalogue of disasters that have taken place in recent years in Community waters, including the Braer spill off Shetland and the Sea Empress off Wales. These spills, in addition to causing irreparable ecological damage, have devastated local industries. | In the case of the Erika, the local fishing and aquaculture industries have suffered a bitter blow and it is important not just to look at the harmful effects that are apparent today but also to look ahead at the long- term detrimental effects of oil pollution. | [

Yesterday evening after the votes in the Chamber, a comment was made which I would like to distance myself from and not to be associated with. There was no mistake in the interpretation and Members of this House did refer to the Technical Group as the Technical Group of Racists. | This was an unfair comment. No one could, by the wildest stretch of the imagination, consider someone like Emma Bonino a racist. | [

Mr President, I welcome this measure. | From an administrative point of view the formalisation is a good thing. But when we come to think about it the amount of money is quite small- EUR 27 million over a period of six years. | [

From an administrative point of view the formalisation is a good thing. But when we come to think about it the amount of money is quite small- EUR 27 million over a period of six years. | Considering the size of the agricultural budget and the fact that it extends to every corner of the Union, it is a relatively small amount of money. | [
