• Men-kind shared this world for but a blink, then, sadly, they became enlightened, found science and religion. The new world of men left little room for magic or the magical creatures of old. Earth’s first children were driven into the shadows by flame and cold iron, by man’s insatiable need of conquest.

• El hombre contemporáneo es ciego al hecho de que, con toda su racionalidad y eficacia, está poseído por "poderes" que escapan a su control. Sus dioses y demonios no han desaparecido en absoluto, sólo han cambiado de nombre. Le mantienen en fuga con inquietud, vagas aprensiones, complicaciones psicológicas, una insaciable necesidad de pastillas, alcohol, tabaco, comida... y, sobre todo, una gran variedad de neurosis...

• Otter is the most brilliant mix of facts ancient and modern about the otter species and its vulnerability to man's seemingly insatiable need to hunt the poor animal for reasons other than survival. I am sure the book will help to ensure that the hunting of otters will never return to this country-and I hope other lands will follow this example . . . A fascinating and illuminating book.

• The problem with most failing businesses is not that their owners don?t know enough about finance, marketing, management, and operations - they don?t, but those things are easy enough to learn - but that they spend their time and energy defending what they think they know. My experience has shown me that the people who are exceptionally good in business aren?t so because of what they know but because of their insatiable need to know more.
