Når man tænker
på, at Valentinsdag ærer Sankt Valentin, en katolsk
præst i Rom i det tredie århundrede, som viede folk i
strid med Claudius Cæsars ordrer, og fik hovedet hugget af for
det, kan man nu godt gå og sukke lidt over, at dagen er blevet
reduceret til smykker, chokolade, flimset undertøj, og bamser
og blomster til usædvanligt ublu priser. |
Considering that Valentine's day
honors Saint Valentine, a Catholic priest in Rome in the third
century who married people against the order of Claudius Caesar, and
was beheaded for it, a girl can hardly be blamed for sighing a little
over the fact that the day has been reduced to jewelry, chocolate,
skimpy underwear, and bears and flowers at shameless prices. |
