• I valued the experience of making the recordings, and I value the performances contained therein, and I value so much of what they can represent. I also think they're a terrific listening experience.

These are some of the reasons for making this record.

• La mente no educada en la reverencia, dice Buenaventura (1221-1274), corre el peligro de quedar tan cautivada por el espectáculo de los seres como para olvidarse por completo del ser en sí mismo; y nuestra aproximación mecanicista al mundo no es más que olvido ontológico traducido en tradición viva.

• Herodotus is not more indisputably the father of history than is Sir Boyle Roche the father of Bulls. No doubt there were makers of bulls before his day, even as brave men lived before Agamemnon; but they are not remembered, and if their bulls have survived them they are credited to Sir Boyle by a posterity generously forgiving and forgetful of his famous indictment.

• These are very unskillful comparisons to represent so precious a thing, but I am not clever enough to think out any more: the real truth is that joy makes the soul so forgetful of itself, and of everything, that it is conscious of nothing, and able to speak of nothing, save of that which proceeds from its joy... Let us join with this soul, my daughters all. Why should we want to be more sensible than she? What can give us greater pleasure than to do as she does? And may all the creatures join with us for ever and ever. Amen, amen, amen.

  Mother Teresa

• Todas las desigualdades sociales que han dejado de ser consideradas convenientes, asumen el carácter no de simple falta de conveniencia, sino de injusticia, y parecen tan tiránicas, que la gente tiende a preguntarse cómo han podido ser toleradas; olvidando que ellos mismos quizás toleran otras desigualdades bajo una noción igualmente equivocada de conveniencia, cuya corrección haría que lo que aprueban pareciera tan monstruoso como lo que finalmente han aprendido a condenar.
