• My loyalty to my people, to our people, and to Israel comes first and prevents me from saying anything critical of Israel outside Israel… As a Jew I see my role as a melitz yosher, a defender of Israel: I defend even her mistakes… I must identify with whatever Israel does – even with her errors.

The nourishment of the dreamworld is a reciprocal affair: as we provide for it, it provides for us.

• Cuando se asiente el polvo y se escriban las páginas de la historia, no serán los airados defensores de la intolerancia quienes hayan marcado la diferencia. La recompensa será para quienes se atrevieron a salir de la seguridad de su intimidad para desenmascarar y derrotar los prejuicios imperantes.

• El fútbol radiofónico es el fútbol reducido a su mínimo común denominador. Despojado de los placeres estéticos del juego, o de la comodidad de un público que siente lo mismo que tú, o de la sensación de seguridad que tienes cuando ves que tus defensas y tu portero están más o menos donde deberían estar, todo lo que queda es el miedo desnudo.

• Is that why you hate me?" I ask. "Partly," She admits. "Jealousy is certainly involved. I also think you're a little hard to swallow. With your tacky romantic drama and your defender-of-the-helpless act. Only it isn't an act, which makes you more unbearable. Please feel free to take this personally.

• Business corporations in general are not defenders of free enterprise. On the contrary, they are one of the
  chief sources of danger....Every businessman is in favor of freedom for everybody else, but when it comes to himself that's a different question. We have to have that tariff to protect us against competition from abroad. We have to have that special provision in the tax code. We have to have that subsidy.

• Gossip is never fatal until it is denied. Gossip goes on about every human being alive and about all the dead that are alive enough to be remembered, and yet almost never does any harm until some defender makes a controversy. Gossip's a nasty thing, but it's sickly, and if people of good intentions will let it entirely alone, it will die, ninety-nine times out of a hundred.

• Hollywood is in somewhat the same position as Las Vegas these days. It went from being the capital of sin to Disneyland, and now it's landed somewhere in between. It tries to keep the sins hidden away and outwardly present itself as a defender of American virtues: justice, individual freedom, and the power of one innocent soul to save the world.

• As nearly as possible in the spirit of Matthew Salinger, age one, urging a luncheon companion to accept a cool lima bean, I urge my editor, mentor and (heaven help him) closest friend, William Shawn, genius domus of The New Yorker, lover of the long shot, protector of the unprolific, defender of the hopelessly flamboyant, most unreasonably modest of born great artist-editors to accept this pretty skimpy-looking book.

• We need to gather everyone we can. Damien scoffed. Uh, boss, hate to be a pall, but I think everyone we can gather is currently in this room. Sin paused to look at Simi, Xirena, Damien, Kat, Kish, and Xypher. It was a pitiful number of defenders. But it was all the world had. In that case, we need to seriously arm ourselves. Damien crossed himself. Hail Mary, full of grace- What are you doing? Kish asked. You're not Catholic. Yeah but I'm feeling really religious all of a sudden and it seemed like a good idea.

• Como ahora los países europeos resuelven sus diferencias mediante la negociación y el consenso, a veces se supone que el mundo entero funciona de la misma manera. Pero no lo olvidemos nunca... más allá de las fronteras europeas, en un mundo donde la opresión y la violencia son muy reales, la liberación sigue siendo un objetivo moral, y la libertad y la seguridad siguen necesitando defensores.
