• Hardly a pure science, history is closer to animal husbandry than it is to mathematics in that it involves selective breeding. The principal difference between the husbandryman and the historian is that the former breeds sheep or cows or such and the latter breeds (assumed) facts. The husbandryman uses his skills to enrich the future, the historian uses his to enrich the past. Both are usually up to their ankles in bullshit.

• En ese momento de amor, momento en que la pasión calla absolutamente bajo la omnipotencia del éxtasis, Marius, puro Marius seráfico, habría sido más capaz de visitar a una mujer de la calle que de levantar el vestido de Cosette por encima del tobillo. Una vez, en una noche de luna, Cosette se detuvo a recoger algo del suelo, su vestido se aflojó y reveló la hinchazón de sus pechos. Marius apartó los ojos.

• I had to think about ankle torsion, where the screws are on the ski, how that affects the forces going into the ski and how the ski bends, your leverage points. It was a challenge. I was having the greatest time, making the mistakes, crashing.

• The immense accretion of flesh which had descended on her in middle life like a flood of lava on a doomed city had changed her from a plump active little woman with a neatly-turned foot and ankle into something as vast and august as a natural phenomenon. She had accepted this submergence as philosohpically as all her other trials, and now, in extreme old age, was rewarded by presenting to her mirror an almost unwrinkled expanse of firm pink and white flesh, in the centre of which the traces of a small face survived as if awaiting excavation.

• I am not too keen on my nose, I don't like my knees, I hate my ankles, I am unsure about my behind, I don't like my legs at all. I am not too sure about my chin, my forehead is a bit dodgy. But, overall, I can live with it.

• He begged to know to which of his fair cousins the excellency of its cookery was owing. Briefly forgetting her manners, Mary grabbed her fork and leapt from her chair onto the table. Lydia, who was seated nearest her, grabbed her ankle before she could dive at Mr. Collins and, presumably, stab him about the head and neck for such an insult.

• Se entregaron al silencio. Se tocaban sin comentarios y sin progresión. Una mano sobre una mano, un brazo vestido, apoyado en un brazo. Un tobillo superpuesto a otro tobillo, mientras se sentaban en una playa, y no se quitaban. Una noche se durmieron, uno al lado del otro... Él dormía acurrucado contra su espalda, una coma oscura contra su pálida frase elegante.

• I just wondered where you —” Ron broke off, shrugging. “Nothing. I’m going back to bed.” “Just thought you’d come nosing around, did you?” Harry shouted. He knew that Ron had no idea what he’d walked in on, knew he hadn’t done it on purpose, but he didn’t care — at this moment he hated everything about Ron, right down to the several inches of bare ankle showing beneath his pajama trousers.

• Ama wipes her hands on her apron, looks up at our old roof with new eyes, and lifts the baby from his basket. She twirls him in the air, her skirts flying around her ankles the way the clouds swirl around the mountain cap--her laughter fresh and strange and musical to my ears.

• As I saw it, all my mother's life, my father held her down, like lead strapped to her ankles. She was buoyant by nature; she wanted to travel, go to the theater, go to museums. What he wanted was to lie on the couch with the Times over his face, so that death, when it came, wouldn't seem a significant change.

• En los libros, amanece y anochece. En la vida, la noche surge del suelo. El día aguanta tanto como puede, brillante y ansioso, absoluta y positivamente el último invitado en abandonar la fiesta, mientras el suelo se oscurece, rezumando noche alrededor de tus tobillos, tragándose para siempre esa lentilla que se te ha caído, haciéndote fallar esa atrapada baja en el barranco en la última bola del último over.

• Se oyó una carcajada tan repentina que Miri se puso en pie de un salto, alarmada. Bena y Liana habían empujado a Peder de la cama al suelo. Él, a su vez, saltó sobre la cama de Liana, aferrándose a ella y riendo mientras las chicas tiraban de sus tobillos. "Entonces, ¿estáis prometidos?". preguntó Katar. "No", dijo Miri brevemente "Ohh". Karter sonrió con una ceja levantada y parecía más la de antes. "Parece que me he topado con un tema de conversación aún más peligroso que la revolución.
