• La maravilla es que la eficacia característica para tocar e inspirar centros creativos profundos habita en el más pequeño cuento de hadas infantil, como el sabor del océano está contenido en una gotita o todo el misterio de la vida dentro del huevo de una pulga. Porque los símbolos de la mitología no se fabrican; no se pueden ordenar, inventar o suprimir permanentemente. Son producciones espontáneas de la psique, y cada uno lleva en sí, intacto, el poder germinal de su fuente.

• The first step toward the management of disease was replacement of demon theories and humours theories by the germ theory. That very step, the beginning of hope, in itself dashed all hopes of magical solutions. It told workers that progress would be made stepwise, at great effort, and that a persistent, unremitting care would have to be paid to a discipline of cleanliness. So it is with software engineering today.

• En todos sus productos, la Naturaleza sólo desarrolla sus gérmenes más simples. Se diría que no fue un gran esfuerzo de invención crear pájaros. El halcón que ahora emprende su vuelo sobre la cima del bosque fue al principio, tal vez, sólo una hoja que revoloteaba en sus pasillos. Del susurro de las hojas llegó, en el curso de los siglos, al vuelo más elevado y al claro villancico del pájaro.

• Así pues, en el corazón de todas las cosas está el germen de su derrocamiento; cuanto más cerca estés del corazón, más cerca estarás de la inversión. No hay otro lugar al que ir que hacia abajo. Alcanzas el núcleo y entonces eres derribado...

• Pronto tendremos por todas partes aniquiladores de humo, absorbedores de polvo, ozonizadores, esterilizadores de agua, aire, alimentos y ropa, y dispositivos para prevenir accidentes en calles, carreteras elevadas y metros. Será casi imposible contraer gérmenes de enfermedades o hacerse daño en la ciudad, y la gente del campo se trasladará a la ciudad para descansar y recuperarse.

• Now it is necessary to court her, and win her, and put on this clean dressing gown, and cut my various nails, and drink something that will kill the millions of germs in my mouth, and say something flattering, and be witty and bonny, and hale and kinky, all just to ease this wrinkle in the groin. It seems a high price.

• Christ pitied because He loved, because He saw through all the wretchedness, and darkness, and bondage of evil; that there was in every human soul a possibility of repentance, of restoration; a germ of good, which, however stifled and overlaid, yet was capable of recovery, of health, of freedom, of perfection.

• . If you believe that your nation is divinely ordained to rule Europe, and you must struggle to establish its supremacy, is that a religious doctrine or a nationalist one? In Germany especially, the whole super-nationalist ideology of the post-1871 empire is heavily imbued with religious teaching, chiefly Lutheran, and frankly viewing the new empire as the germ of the kingdom of God on Earth.

• Maybe one way to think about it would be in the context of the historical development of germ theory. The problem of childbed fever was not significant until the development of a male-dominated medical establishment made possible the situation in which a professional might move from touching a corpse (for the purposes of study) to putting his unwashed hands up against, or into, a woman in labor.

• Un cuerpo humano puede pensar, tocar un piano, matar gérmenes, eliminar toxinas, hacer un bebé, todo a la vez.

• It is very questionable, in my mind, how far we have the right to judge one of another, since there is born within every man the germs of both virtue and vice. The development of one or the other is contingent upon circumstances.

• We cannot wholly rely, as though it were Medieval times, [on the notion that] the only reality is what we see in front of us. There are germs. There are changes that are happening in our planet's ecology that are happening over such a long period of time that we cannot see the changes.

• Ah! but the moods lie in his nature, my boy, just as much as his reflections did, and more. A man can never do anything at variance with his own nature. He carries within him the germ of his most exceptional action; and if we wise people make eminent fools of ourselves on any particular occasion, we must endure the legitimate conclusion that we carry a few grains of folly to our ounce of wisdom.
