• Pasaron las semanas y el conejito se hizo muy viejo y andrajoso, pero el Niño le quería igual. Lo quería tanto que le quitó todos los bigotes, y el forro rosado de las orejas se volvió gris, y sus manchas marrones se desvanecieron. Incluso empezó a perder su forma, y ya casi no parecía un conejo, excepto para el Niño. Para él siempre fue hermoso, y eso era lo único que le importaba al pequeño conejo. No le importaba el aspecto que tuviera para los demás, porque la magia de la guardería lo había hecho Real, y cuando se es Real, la fealdad no importa.

• Sus ojos grises brillaban de pasión mientras hablaba. Sid los miró y por un segundo vislumbró su alma. Vio lo que era: feroz y valiente. Erguida. Impaciente. Y buena.

Se dio cuenta de que era una criatura rara, tan rara como una rosa en invierno.

• The minds of stone lovers had colonised stones as lichens clung to them with golden or grey-green florid stains. The human world of stones is caught in organic metaphors like flies in amber. Words came from flesh and hair and plants. Reniform, mammilated, botryoidal, dendrite, haematite. Carnelian is from carnal, from flesh. Serpentine and lizardite are stone reptiles ; phyllite is leafy-green.
