In Response To: J. L. Borges - The Maker (President People)

: Regarding the ck on infinity page: The Jorge Luis Borges excerpt appears to
: be taken from his story “The Maker” ., and can be found in “The
: Dreamtigers”, a partial collection of his works.

: I don’t know about any kudos, though. I think one responding to ck was
: expected to know the Borges works, where I just looked up the quote 24
: years later. And by this time, Mars has stopped making those, anyhow. :P

: The Maker is just a few paragraphs. Worth a read. I’m unsure if the page I
: linked has the entire story or not, though.

Yup. That's the entire story.

But his father’s voice was saying, "Make me proud. Never lose your honor," and there was a command in his voice. The boy returns with... the bloody blade.

Well done by the way.

It's so much easier in the 21th century.

Cheers
