• Los pescadores, cazadores, leñadores y otros, que pasan su vida en los campos y bosques, en un sentido peculiar una parte de la propia Naturaleza, están a menudo en un estado de ánimo más favorable para observarla, en los intervalos de sus actividades, que los filósofos o poetas, incluso, que se acercan a ella con expectación. Ella no teme exhibirse ante ellos.

  Henry David Thoreau

• "La verdadera ciencia no tiene creencias", dice el Dr. Fenwick, en la "Historia extraña" de Bulwer-Lytton; "la verdadera ciencia sólo conoce tres estados de ánimo: la negación, la convicción y el vasto intervalo entre ambos, que no es creencia, sino suspensión del juicio". Tal era, tal vez, la verdadera ciencia en los días del Dr. Fenwick. Pero la verdadera ciencia de nuestros tiempos modernos procede de otra manera; o bien niega a bocajarro, sin ninguna investigación preliminar, o se sienta en el intervalo, entre la negación y la convicción, y, diccionario en mano, ¡inventa nuevos apelativos grecolatinos para tipos inexistentes de histeria!

  H. P. Blavatsky

• The night comes for the purpose of checking our busy employment, and introducing an interval of repose between the links of our action and our aspiration. It draws its dim curtain around the field of toil. It buries the objects of our handiwork in darkness, and involves them with uncertainty. It comes to the relief of the exhausted body and the tired brain. Our powers, harmonizing with the diurnal revolutions of the earth, fail with the failing light, and a merciful Providence casts around us this mantle of shadow, and snatches us from our occupation.

  Edwin Hubbel Chapin

• No... esperes razonar completamente para disipar tus problemas; no los alimentes con atención, y desaparecerán imperceptiblemente. Fija tus pensamientos en tus asuntos, llena tus intervalos de compañía, y la luz del sol volverá a irrumpir en tu mente.

• El pleno empleo no significa literalmente que no haya desempleo; es decir, no significa que todos los hombres y mujeres del país que sean aptos y estén libres para trabajar tengan un empleo productivo todos los días de su vida laboral... El pleno empleo significa que el desempleo se reduce a breves intervalos de espera, con la certeza de que muy pronto volveremos a ser requeridos para nuestro antiguo empleo o para un nuevo empleo que esté a nuestro alcance.

• Lo que más llama la atención en la naturaleza salvaje de Maine es la continuidad del bosque, con menos intervalos abiertos o claros de lo que se había imaginado. A excepción de las pocas tierras quemadas, los estrechos intervalos en los ríos, las cimas desnudas de las altas montañas y los lagos y arroyos, el bosque es ininterrumpido.

• Creo que mi primera impresión (de Bix Beiderbecke) fue la más duradera. Recuerdo claramente que pensé: "¿De qué planeta viene este tipo? ¿Es del espacio exterior? Nunca había oído nada parecido a su forma de tocar, ni en Chicago ni en ningún sitio. El tono... tenía ese maravilloso tono de corneta. Podría haber tocado en una orquesta sinfónica con ese tono. Pero también los intervalos que tocaba, las figuras... lo que demonios hiciera. Había un refinamiento en su forma de tocar. En aquella época yo tocaba una trompeta pequeña y podía tocar de memoria todos los solos de sus discos.
