"¿Acaso quiero saber dónde las conseguiste?" Le pregunté. Liz pareció meditarlo y luego dijo: "No.

• Sobre la pintura de ratas y su glorificación. Existen sin permiso. Son odiadas, cazadas y perseguidas. Viven en silenciosa desesperación entre la inmundicia. Y, sin embargo, son capaces de poner de rodillas a civilizaciones enteras. Si eres sucio, insignificante y no te quieren, las ratas son el mejor modelo a seguir.

• He must have been handsome when he was alive and was handsome still, although made monstrous by his pallor and her awareness of what he was. His mouth looked soft, his cheekbones as sharp as blades, and his jaw curved, giving him an off-kilter beauty. His black hair a mad forest of dirty curls.

• So as you are, in whatever conditions you are, in whatever situations you are, whatever may be the surroundings, like a dirty mire full of creatures and filth, you can become like lotuses. When you become like lotuses, all that is filth, all that is horrible can become fragrant. And this is what we have to achieve.

• If God seems to be in no hurry to make the problem of evil go away, maybe we shouldn't be, either. Maybe our compulsion to wash God's hands for him is a service he doesn't appreciate. Maybe - all theodicies and nearly all theologians to the contrary - evil is where we meet God. Maybe he isn't bothered by showing up dirty for his dates with creation. Maybe - just maybe - if we ever solved the problem, we'd have talked ourselves out of a lover.

• We live in a dirty and dangerous world. There are some things the general public does not need to know, and shouldn't. I believe democracy flourishes when the government can take legitimate steps to keep its secrets and when the press can decide whether to print what it knows.

• Al darme cuenta de que todas las cosas tienen cualidades espaciales y temporales únicas que las definen y relacionan visualmente, empecé a percibir las cosas que fotografiaba no como objetos, sino como acontecimientos. Trabajando para desarrollar mi capacidad de percibir y simbolizar estas cualidades de los acontecimientos, descubrí el principio de los opuestos. Cuando, por ejemplo, fotografié el cuerpo suave y luminoso de una mujer detrás de una ventana sucia y llena de telarañas, descubrí que las cualidades de cada acontecimiento se realzaban y las fuerzas universales que manifestaban se evocaban con mayor fuerza.

• Well I work up Sunday morning,
  With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt,
  And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
  So I had one more for dessert.
  Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes,
  And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
  An' I shaved my face and combed my hair,
  An' stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.
