Fugitivo Citas - Página 2

• When I reflect upon what I have seen, what I have heard, what I have done, I can hardly persuade myself that all that frivolous hurry and bustle and pleasure of the world had any reality; and I look on what has passed as one of those wild dreams which opium occasions, and I by no means wish to repeat the nauseous dose for the sake of the fugitive illusion.

  Lord Chesterfield

• Disfrutemos de la hora fugitiva. El hombre no tiene puerto, el tiempo no tiene orilla; se precipita y nos lleva con él.

• ¡Oh vosotros que amáis a la humanidad! Vosotros que os atrevéis a oponeros, no sólo a la tiranía, sino al tirano, ¡poneros en pie! Cada rincón del viejo mundo está invadido por la opresión. La libertad ha sido perseguida por todo el mundo. Asia y África la han expulsado. Europa la mira como a una extraña, e Inglaterra le ha advertido que se marche. Acoged a la fugitiva y preparad a tiempo un asilo para la humanidad.

• La poesía es una de las artes más fugitivas: puede asignarse a la memoria, tomarse y esconderse en la mente, introducirse de contrabando en las trastiendas humeantes de las cabañas, recitarse allí y luego transmitirse sólo de palabra a otra persona. Por tanto, es la que tiene más probabilidades de sobrevivir a la colonización.

• But what's your ultimate goal, you'll say. That goal will become clearer, will take shape slowly and surely, as the croquis becomes a sketch and the sketch a painting, as one works more seriously, as one digs deeper into the originally vague idea, the first fugitive, passing thought, unless it becomes firm.

  Vincent Van Gogh

• Not even for an hour can you bear to be alone, nor can you advantageously apply your leisure time, but you endeavor, a fugitive and wanderer, to escape from yourself, now vainly seeking to banish remorse by wine, and now by sleep; but the gloomy companion presses on you, and pursues you as you fly.

  Horace

  Sleep, Wine, Leisure

• How many of those who are insecure seek power over others as a compensation for inadequacy and wind up bringing consequences down upon their heads and those around them? How many hide out in their lives, resist the summons to show up, or live fugitive lives, jealous, projecting onto others, and then wonder why nothing ever really feels quite right. How many proffer compliance with the other, buying peace at the price of soul, and wind up with neither?

• Slavery was a central concern of governance form the time of the first nation-state. The Code of Hammurabi, the earliest know set of laws for governing an empire, prescribed death for anyone who harbored a fugitive or otherwise helped a slave to escape. The relationship between the law and bondage goes back even farther: Indeed, the oldest extant legal documents don't concern the sale of land, houses, or even animals, but slaves.

• Thought is fugitive; the mind does not repeat itself; if you do not catch the whisperings of the oracle as they come to you, they are lost forever. You must-and this is absolutely essential-convince yourselves that what is offered you this very moment will never be offered again.

  Jean Guitton

• I am haunted by interrupted acts,
  introspective as a leper, enchanted
  by a repulsive clew,
  a gross and fugitive movement of the limbs.
  Is this the love that shook the lights to flame?

• Creo que tengo una enfermedad peculiar. La llamo la maldición de la historia, y tiene que ver con la ausencia/presencia fugitiva de la memoria tanto personal como colectiva. Al principio pensé que era una especie de enfermedad personal, relacionada simplemente con el tiempo, el tiempo privado, el tiempo que pasa en la vida de uno. Así que decidí olvidar y lanzarme al futuro.

  Gilles Peress

• Hacía tiempo que había descubierto que cuando una palabra o fórmula se negaba a venir a mi mente lo mejor para ella era pensar en otra cosa: tigres, por ejemplo, o avena. Entonces, cuando la palabra fugitiva menos lo esperaba, volvía a centrar toda mi atención en ella, atrapándola con el haz de mi antorcha mental antes de que pudiera escabullirse de nuevo en la oscuridad.

• I'd like to be in a female version of The Fugitive. Something where I don't have to be ripped up like an action star, but be a normal, healthy lady who is framed and on the run. I'd have to run from explosions and punch people in the face but not rappel down a building.

• Ah! what is human life? How, like the dial's tardy-moving shade, Day after day slides from us unperceiv'd! The cunning fugitive is swift by stealth; Too subtle is the movement to be seen; Yet soon the hour is up--and we are gone.

• We think we are the victims of time. In reality, the way of the world isn't fixed anywhere. How could that be possible? We are our own journey. And therefore we are time as well. We are the same. Fugitive. Inscrutable. Ruthless.

• For me white privilege has turned out to be an elusive and fugitive subject. The pressure to avoid it is great, for in facing it I must give up the myth of meritocracy. If these things are true, this is not such a free country; one's life is not what one makes it; many doors open for certain people through no virtues of their own.

• Many of the finest and most interesting emotions perish forever, because too complex and fugitive for expression. Of all things relating to man, his feelings are perhaps the most evanescent, the greater part dying in the moment of their birth. But while emotions perish, thought blended in diction is immortal.

• Some movies run off the rails. This one is like the train crash in The Fugitive. I watched it in mounting gloom, realizing I was witnessing something historic, a film that for decades to come will be the punch line of jokes about bad movies.

• To-day Massachusetts; and the whole of the American republic, from the border of Maine to the Pacific slopes, and from the Lakes to the Gulf, stand upon the immutable and everlasting principles of equal and exact justice. The days of unrequited labor are numbered with the past. Fugitive slave laws are only remembered as relics of that barbarism which John Wesley pronounced "the sum of all villainies," and whose knowledge of its blighting effects was matured by his travels in Georgia and the Carolinas.
