• But I too hate long books: the better, the worse. If they're bad they merely make me pant with the effort of holding them up for a few minutes. But if they're good, I turn into a social moron for days, refusing to go out of my room, scowling and growling at interruptions, ignoring weddings and funerals, and making enemies out of friends. I still bear the scars of Middlemarch.

I buried my head in it and listened to the small internal noises that went on behind the light blue cloth: his watch ticking, the faint crackle of his starched shirt, the soft sound of his breathing. 'Your stomach's growling,' I said. 'I know it,' he said.

• Piensa una gran locura, niña", dijo Aslan. "Este mundo está rebosante de vida durante estos pocos días porque la canción con la que lo llamé a la vida aún flota en el aire y retumba en el suelo. No será así por mucho tiempo. Pero no puedo decírselo a este viejo pecador, y tampoco puedo consolarlo; se ha vuelto incapaz de oír mi voz. Si le hablara, sólo oiría gruñidos y rugidos. Oh, hijo de Adán, ¡con qué astucia te defiendes de todo lo que podría hacerte bien!

• Firekeeper seguía sin entender la afición humana a comer en compañía. Menos aún comprendía el deseo humano de combinar negocios y comidas. Es cierto que una manada de lobos compartía una presa, pero no por un gran deseo de hacerlo, sino más bien porque era poco probable que alguien que abandonara la escena recibiera una parte... Se esforzaba... por no atornillar su comida y casi siempre recordaba que gruñir cuando una persona te hablaba no era una respuesta adecuada.

• As he gave a sleepy, growling groan, that hand disappeared under the sheet. Arizona's lips parted, and her heartbeat tripped up. She cleared her throat. "Spencer?" Freezing, without moving any other body part, he opened his eyes and met her gaze. She frowned at him. He didn't look super-startled, and he said nothing. He just started at her. With his hand still under there. "Yeah..." Semi-satisfied with his frozen reaction, she nodded at his lap. "You weren't going for a little tug, were you? Because as your spectator, I'd just as soon not see it." -Arizona and Spencer

• El programador, que necesita claridad, que debe hablar todo el día con una máquina que exige declaraciones, se atrinchera en una molestia de bajo grado. Es aquí donde tiene su origen el estereotipo del programador, sentado en una habitación en penumbra, gruñendo detrás de latas de Coca-Cola. El desorden de la mesa, el suelo, las notas amarillas por todas partes, las pizarras cubiertas de garabatos: todo esto es la manifestación externa del desorden del pensamiento humano. El desorden no puede entrar en el programa; se amontona alrededor del programador.

• In the Old Language, she hissed, “If any harm shall befall him, I will come after you, and find you where you sleep. I do not care where you lay your head or who with, my vengeance shall rain upon you until you drown.” That last word was drawn out, until its syllable was lost in more growling. Dead silence. Until Doc Jane said dryly, “Annnnd this is why they say the female of the species is more dangerous than the male.
