• All the things you need in the death transition, you need now in the life transition, because life is a transition, it is a between state. Therefore, every night when you fall asleep, it's like you die. And every time you do, you should be using the process of falling asleep as giving up your attention to sense objects, your discursive ruminating thoughts and so on. You should use that as a process of giving up and giving yourself completely to the universe and becoming completely obliterated.

Que sea tu primer pensamiento al levantarte y el último que pienses antes de dormirte por la noche. Este sencillo acto de amor propio puede cambiar profundamente tu mundo. Pruébalo y verás. Toma la decisión personal de enamorarte de la persona más bella, excitante y valiosa que existe: tú.

• Recuerdo que salí del canal del parto y de repente estaba en una película. Pero nunca eres realmente responsable de ello. La película se estrenó hace unos cinco o seis meses en Estados Unidos.

Me encanta trabajar para Disney, no para Walt en concreto porque no podría estar más muerto, pero la empresa es fantástica.

• Las cosas suceden o no suceden, eso es todo. Nada se consigue con sudor y lucha. Casi todo lo que llamamos vida no es más que insomnio, una agonía porque hemos perdido la costumbre de dormirnos. No sabemos dejarnos llevar. Somos como una caja de sorpresas encaramada a un muelle, y cuanto más nos esforzamos, más difícil nos resulta volver a la caja.

• I fell asleep at my desk many times. This was when working on events—virtually every one I’ve done in the last 5 years. I was not confronting the writing of speeches. In fact, I was not wanting to confront what I was doing at the time—being irresponsible... I am now known for falling asleep. This has happened 50 times in the last 5 years and probably 20 times at my desk in the last 2 years.

• Ella había adquirido algo de sus costumbres gitanas, algo de su despreocupación, su indisciplina bohemia. Se había columpiado con él en los desórdenes de la ropa tendida, las cenizas de cigarrillo derramadas, deslizándose en la cama toda vestida, durmiéndose así, indolencia, atemporalidad... Una región de caos y luz de luna. A ella le gustaba aquello.

• It was about falling asleep with Sam's chest pressed against my back so I could feel his heart slow to match mine. It was about growing up and realizing that the feel of his arms around me, the smell of him when he was sleeping, the sound of his breathing -- that was home and everything I wanted at the end of the day. It wasn't the same as being with him and we were awake.

• I'm always amazed at friends who say they try to read at night in bed but always end up falling asleep. I have the opposite problem. If a book is good I can't go to sleep, and stay up way past my bedtime, hooked on the writing. Is anything better than waking up after a late-night read and diving right back into the plot before you even get out of bed to brush your teeth?
