  Henry David Thoreau

  Dream, Nature, Inspire

• Para tener éxito social, no actúe de forma patética, arrogante o aburrida. No hable de su infancia infeliz, de su visita al dentista, de los defectos de la mujer de la limpieza, del estado de sus intestinos o de los malos hábitos de su cónyuge. Le considerarán un dechado (o quizá un monstruo) de buen comportamiento.

  Mason Cooley

• El final de todas las historias, aunque el escritor se precie de mencionarlo, es la muerte, que es donde el tiempo se detiene en seco. Sheherezade lo sabía, y por eso seguía hilando otra historia a partir de las entrañas de la última, sin llegar nunca a un punto en el que pudiera decir: "Este es el final." Porque lo habría sido.

• We are a feelingless people. If we could really feel, the pain would be so great that we would stop all the suffering. If we could feel that one person every six seconds dies of starvation ... we would stop it. ... If we could really feel it in the bowels, the groin, in the throat, in the breast, we would go into the streets and stop the war, stop slavery, stop the prisons, stop the killing, stop destruction.

• Every time I say the word capitalism, everyone just assumes I have plenty of Marxism in me, I do. But Russia and China had their bloody revolutions and even while they were Communist, they had the same idea about generating wealth - tear it out of the bowels of the earth. And now they have come out with the same idea in the end... you know, capitalism. But capitalism will fail, too.

• En MGM había una jaula de guiones en el sótano donde mostraban los rushes. Y pensé: "¿Cómo puedo entrar en la jaula de guiones y averiguar cuál es mi futuro?". Una noche me metí en la jaula de guiones y pasé toda la noche allí. Vi las entrañas de MGM. Vi los guiones del estudio que los productores habían visto; los guionistas acababan de entregarlos. Y empecé a pensar que era una oportunidad para elegir mis propios papeles.

• Just take it from me," Donovan said. "Stay well clear of the warden. Some here think he's the devil. I don't, I don't believe in that religious talk, but I know evil when I see it. He's something rotten they dragged from the bowels of the earth, something they patched together from darkness and filth. He'll be the death of us all, every single one of us here in Furnace. Only question is when." "I know one thing," I added. "The warden certainly brings out peoples dramatic sides." Zee and Donovan both laughed through their noses.

• Atten. Pray of what disease did Mr. Badman die, for now I perceive we are come up to his death? Wise. I cannot so properly say that he died of one disease, for there were many that had consented, and laid their heads together to bring him to his end. He was dropsical, he was consumptive, he was surfeited, was gouty, and, as some say, he had a tang of the pox in his bowels. Yet the captain of all these men of death that came against him to take him away, was the consumption, for it was that that brought him down to the grave.

• Puede que no sea gracioso. Puede que no sea cantante. Puede que no sea una maldita costurera. Puede que tenga diabetes. Puede que tenga muy mala vista. Puede que tenga una sola pierna. Puede que no sepa leer. Puede que no sepa quién es el vicepresidente. Puede que técnicamente sea un extranjero del Estado. Puede que tenga un Zune. Puede que no sepa Excel. Puedo ser dos niños de 9 años con una gabardina. Puede que no controle mis intestinos. Puede que conduzca un Honda Civic del 94. Puede que no "entienda" las cámaras. Puede que me tiña el pelo con peróxido de hidrógeno. Puede que me den miedo los árboles. Puede que esté ardiendo ahora mismo. Pero soy una reina feroz.
