• It's amazing, it's pumping, it's furious, it's anxious, it's happy and it's far more real than anything you'll ever experience in a Western city.

The music is a reflection of that, of all times and all religions and of all the natural expectations and conditions of the people who live there.

• Necesitamos objetos que nos recuerden los compromisos que hemos contraído. Esa alfombra marroquí nos recuerda nuestro lado impulsivo y amante de la libertad que corremos el riesgo de perder.

• Always was Morocco. And recently the country's leadership seems to have embraced it in all its ill-reputed glory.

But the good stuff, the real good stuff, the sounds and smells and the look of Tangier -- what you see and hear when you lean out the window and take it all in -- that's here to stay.

• Sherlock Holmes took his bottle from the corner of the mantel-piece, and his hypodermic syringe from its neat morocco case. With his long, white, nervous fingers he adjusted the delicate needle, and rolled back his left shirt-cuff. For some little time his eyes rested thoughtfully upon the sinewy forearm and wrist, all dotted and scarred with innumerable puncture-marks. Finally, he thrust the sharp point home, pressed down the tiny piston, and sank back into the velvet-lined armchair with a long sigh of satisfaction.
