• Y si realmente puedo ver el futuro, ¿qué significa? ¿Tienen sentido nuestras vidas si todo está ya ahí fuera, esperando a que ocurra? Si fuera así, la vida sería un monstruo horrible, sin posibilidad de escapar de la fatalidad, del destino. Sería como leer un libro, pero leerlo al revés, desde el último capítulo hasta el primero, de modo que ya se conoce el final.

• La vida puede ser confusa. Por Dios, y de qué manera. A veces parece que cuanto más viejo me hago, más confuso me vuelvo. Eso parece al revés. Pensé que se suponía que me volvería más sabio. En lugar de eso, sigo recibiendo golpes en la cabeza con mi relativa insignificancia en el gran esquema del universo. La vida es confusa. Pero es mejor que la alternativa.

  Jim Butcher

  Confuso, confuso, alternativas

• Healing requires far more of us than just the participation of our intellectual and even our emotional resources. And it certainly demands that we do more than look backwards at the dead-end archives of our past. Healing is, by definition, taking a process of disintegration of life and transforming into a process of return to life.

• Rousseau lo entendió al revés. NO nacemos libres. Nacemos en las cadenas de lo aleatorio y lo reflexivo, y somos ignorantes e irrazonables por simple naturaleza. Debemos aprender a ser libres, a organizar lo aleatorio y detectar lo reflexivo, a adquirir el conocimiento de lo particular y el poder de la razón. La vida examinada es imposible si no podemos examinar, ordenar, clasificar, definir, distinguir, siempre en detalles minuciosos.

  Richard Mitchell

• My writing isn't actually guided by issues. I know it seems that way, but I don't sit down and think, Oh, there's this issue I'm bothered about. I only write about things that directly impact my life. When I write, there's a pain that I have to reach, and a release I have to work toward for myself. So it's really a question of the particular emotional circumstance that I want to express, a character that appears, a moment in time, and then I write the play backwards.

• En respuesta a la escalada de violencia en Irak, el Presidente Bush retrasa el regreso a casa de 25.000 soldados y de hecho añadirá refuerzos al sur. Luego, en un gesto simbólico, bajó la pancarta de misión cumplida, se puso un traje de vuelo, caminó hacia atrás hasta un caza y lo hizo volar en reversa desde un portaaviones.

  Tina Fey

• Hay una estrecha relación entre una casa llena de posesiones y un corazón lleno de deseos, entre un armario desordenado y una agenda abarrotada, entre no tener dónde poner las posesiones y no tener prioridades para nuestra vida. Son pistas preciosas. Nos recuerdan que debemos ir más despacio, vivir el presente, reducir los deseos que agotan nuestra vitalidad, aclarar las prioridades para poder dedicar nuestro tiempo y atención a lo que más importa. Trágicamente, en el ajetreo de la vida moderna, hemos conseguido dejar atrás una de las verdades más vitales de la vida: a las personas hay que amarlas; las cosas, utilizarlas.

• A self is, by its very essence, a being with a past. One must look lengthwise backwards in the stream of time in order to see theself, or its shadow, now moving with the stream, now eddying in the currents from bank to bank of its channel, and now strenuously straining onwards in the pursuit of its chosen good.

• Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it's more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.

• La única vez que tuve lo que se dice miedo mortal fue cuando estuve en la Luna. Hacia el final de nuestra estancia, nos emocionamos e íbamos a hacer el salto de altura, y yo salté y me caí de espaldas. Aquel fue un momento de miedo, porque si la mochila se rompía, me la habría cargado. Pero todo aguantó.
