• Qhuinn volvió a mirar a cada uno de los encapuchados. Qué irónico, pensó.

Y ahora, aquí estaban estos hombres, que venían a atraerlo a un rebaño diferente, tan fuerte como el de la sangre.

• No era una gran sonrisa, ni especialmente atrevida, ni educada, ni irónica, ni simplista, ni pedía nada, ni ofrecía nada, ni era fibrosa, ni descuidada, en resumen, no se parecía a ninguna sonrisa que yo hubiera experimentado antes. Pero ¡qué sonrisa! Se podía hacer un agujero en el mundo con esa sonrisa.

• I've never met or spoken to David Lee Roth, yet it's rather ironic that even he's saying Eddie's lying about things. I'm saying he's not telling the truth, yet Eddie insists that the two of us are lying! You be the judge.

• It was the essence of life to disbelieve in death for one's self, to act as if life would continue forever. And life had to act also as if little issues were big ones. To take a realistic attitude toward life and death meant that one lapsed into unreality. Into insanity. It was ironic that the only way to keep one's sanity was to ignore that one was in an insane world or to act as if the world were sane.

• ¿Has tenido alguna vez una conversación con alguien que no ha entendido nada de lo que le has dicho? Es agotador, y lo irónico es que cuanto más intentas explicarte, más se mezclan las cosas. Tu mejor amigo sabe cuándo estás bromeando, desahogándote y cansado. Te conoce y, por lo tanto, no interpreta lo que dices.

  François Mauriac

• Nada parece más cruel -o más irónico- que estos ricachones que nunca pagan un céntimo por sus psiquiatras de alto precio o sus sesiones de reflexología llamen banda de comunistas a los que sólo quieren que les extirpen ese tumor del útero. Bueno, la revolución está cerca y esperemos que todos esos comunistas sin seguro les den a los ricos tal dolor de cabeza que un frasco entero de Advil no sea suficiente para calmar el dolor.

• I think at its best the American sense of humor is the same as the British sense of humor at its best, which is to be wry and ironic and self deprecating.

• En un sentido irónico, Karl Marx tenía razón. Asistimos hoy a una gran crisis revolucionaria, una crisis en la que las exigencias del orden económico entran en conflicto directo con las del orden político. Pero la crisis no se produce en Occidente, sino en la patria del marxismo. Occidente, sino en la patria del marxismo-leninismo, la Unión Soviética. Es la Unión Soviética la que corre a contracorriente de la historia negando la libertad y la dignidad humanas a sus ciudadanos.

  Ronald Reagan

• But if I were asked to pick one constant, one quality that seems dependable, immutable, endlessly available, I'd say that it was intensity. For nothing in Sicily seems withheld, done half way, restrained or suppressed. There's nothing to correspond to say, the ironic, the cerebral remove at which a Frenchman might consider an idea or a question, or the Scandinavian distrust of the sloppy, emotive response.

• But mostly, I remembered what I’ve always believed. What my mom taught me. That while some things are just plain awful, most things in life can be seen either tragic or comic. And it’s your choice. Is life a big, long, tiresome slog from sadness to regret to guilt to resentment to self-pity? Or is life weird, outrageous, bizarre, ironic, and just stupid? Gotta go with stupid. It’s not the easy way out. Self pity is the easiest thing in the world. Finding the humor, the irony, the slight justification for a skewed, skeptical optimism. That’s tough. - Marco, Animorphs #35: The Proposal

• DJ Spooky was meant to be a kind of ironic take on that. It was always meant to be kind of a criticism and critique of how downtown culture would separate genres and styles because it was ambiguous.
