• I need sometimes to hang back in the shadows with my pen and paper, and then other times, I need to take center stage in my own creations. The trick is to know when to hang back, and when to step forward. It's a perpetual ongoing balance.

• Nicholas Hytner, who directed Center Stage, is a huge ballet fan. He was completely open, as was Bruce Beresford, to get our perspective. "No, we wouldn't do this. Yes, we would do that. That's not realistic." So, I feel like Center Stage did well in that respect.

• En gran medida, los ancianos de nuestra sociedad están marginados. Los ancianos son vistos como inútiles, obviados por la historia, anticuados, estorbosos. Así que, como es lógico, cuando alcanzamos la marca oficial de la vejez, se supone que debemos irnos suavemente a esa buena noche, salir del centro del escenario y ceder el protagonismo. La vejez también está rodeada de vergüenza: el mito de la impotencia y la incapacidad.

• The Protestant wing of the western church, which is a tiny percentage of the Body of Christ, is nearly completely (98%) unaware that the Holy Spirit is restoring contemplative prayer-center stage-to the church The Holy Spirit is restoring this precious jewel (contemplative prayer) to the body of Christ. This is the God ordained means of attaining the fullness of God.

• La ciencia tiene la incómoda costumbre de apartar al ser humano del centro de la escena. En nuestras historias precientíficas, los seres humanos empezaron siendo el punto central de la Naturaleza, viviendo en una Tierra que era el centro del universo. A medida que se investigaban más a fondo los orígenes de la Tierra y de la humanidad, se hizo evidente que la Naturaleza tenía otros intereses además de las personas, y que la Tierra era menos central de lo que se esperaba. La humanidad no era más que una rama de la gran familia de la vida, y la Tierra es un planeta pequeño que orbita alrededor de un sol poco excepcional, bastante alejado en un brazo de una galaxia espiral común y corriente.

• Glacier Gray is an unobtrusive gray that contrasts and enhances; bouncing off other shades without taking away from them as it slips into the background to allow other colors to take center stage. Nature’s most perfect neutral, Glacier Gray is a shade that is timeless. Quietly assuring and peacefully relaxing, Glacier Gray, is above all, constant.

• For almost half a century, Fermilab has occupied center stage as physicists have sought to understand the fundamental structure of the universe. The lab deserves a good history, and I'm happy to say that in this book it has one. The authors present a compelling, nuanced, and richly detailed account of the place from its beginnings to the present.

• El diccionario describe a una persona egoísta como aquella que "se preocupa excesiva o exclusivamente de sí misma: busca el placer o el bienestar sin tener en cuenta a los demás". Además, una persona egoísta suele hablar de "yo", "mí" y "mío" en lugar de "nosotros", "nuestro", "tuyo" o "suyo". Esta persona está ansiosa por ser el centro de atención, por estar en el centro del escenario en los pequeños dramas de la vida. Puede que no sepa escuchar o que monopolice la conversación. El egoísmo es el gran pecado desconocido. Ninguna persona egoísta ha pensado nunca que lo es.
