Story
Merimee's most famous work is the novella Carmen, a story about jealousy and unfaithfulness. It inspired George Bizet's world-famous Opera-Comique. Some 50 movie adaptations have been made from the story, several of which are filmings of the opera.
Merimee was one of the greatest names of the romantic movement in France. Passionate, destructive love was his subject in many short stories.

Story
Carmen, die nicht weit von mir hockte, ließ von Zeit zu Zeit ihre Kastagnetten knattern und trällerte halblaut vor sich hin. Dann rückte sie dicht an mich heran, wie wenn sie mir etwas ins Ohr flüstern wollte, und küsste mich zwei- oder dreimal. Ich ließ es unwillig geschehen. „Du bist eine Teufelin!“, sagte ich zu ihr. „Bin ich”, erwiderte sie mir.

Après la chute de l'Empire, Orso Della Rebbia, officier et gentilhomme corse, rentre au pays. Son père a été assassiné deux ans auparavant, mais Orso, influencé par les mœurs continentales, débarque sans intention agressive, tout occupé par l'intérêt qu'il porte à une jeune anglaise rencontrée sur le bateau. Mais la Corse - ses traditions, sa singularité et surtout sa coutume vengeresse, la "vendetta" - l'attend en la personne de sa jeune sœur Colomba.

Nous piochons toujours, nous piochons, et voilà qu'il paraît une main noire, qui semblait la main d'un mort qui sortait de terre. Moi, la peur me prend. Je m'en vais à monsieur, et je lui dis : "Des morts, notre maître, qui sont sous l'olivier ! Faut appeler le curé. - Quels morts ?" qu'il me dit. Il vient, et il n'a pas plus tôt vu la main qu'il s’écrie : " Un antique ! un antique !" Vous auriez cru qu'il avait trouvé un trésor.

Story
"Le Carrosse du Saint-Sacrement" est une des œuvres les moins connues de Mérimée. Ce n'est point là un drame tragique et sanglant rappelant "Carmen". Mais la note espagnole où excelle Mérimée y sera. Vraiment, vous entendrez là un chef-d'œuvre littéraire où l'adresse scénique égale la fantaisie. Le personnage principal - un Vice-Roi du Pérou - est dessiné avec une ponctualité et un relief étonnants. On retrouvera là, sous un aspect nouveau, l'éternel duel entre l'homme et la femme qui est celui d'Alceste et Célimène, Boubouroche et Adèle... (J. Copeau, Comoedia, 3-3-1920).

Story
Prosper Mérimée behandelt in seiner kleinen Komödie die Liebesaffäre der im 18. Jahrhundert so gefeierten Schauspielerin Camila Perichole mit dem Vize-König von Peru. Da die junge Künstlerin weiß, dass ihr Mäzen eine neue Staatskarosse besitzt, bittet sie ihn um die Gefälligkeit, ihr den Wagen zu überlassen. Der Vize-König hingegen, der argwöhnt, dass die Perichole ihn betrügt, verweigert ihr zunächst den Wunsch. Doch mit Charme und weiblichem Raffinement gelingt es der jungen Schauspielerin schließlich, die Wellen der Erregung zu glätten und alle Beteiligten für sich einzunehmen.

Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
