• People who are living donors who give kidneys. You can't give a heart and you can't give a liver, but you can sure give a lung - well, kidneys, anyhow. And that's where the main part of this whole thing is - one out of every eight people, I believe, is going to have some kind of kidney problem during their lifetime.

• It is astounding to me, and achingly sad, that with eighty thousand people on the waiting list for donated hearts and livers and kidneys, with sixteen a day dying there on that list, that more then half of the people in the position H's family was in will say no, will choose to burn those organs or let them rot. We abide the surgeon's scalpel to save our own lives, out loved ones' lives, but not to save a stranger's life. H has no heart, but heartless is the last thing you'd call her.

Forty is Life's Golden Age.

• I am a neat hand at cookery, and I'll tell you what I knocked up for my Christmas-eve dinner in the Library Cart. I knocked up a beefsteak-pudding for one, with two kidneys, a dozen oysters, and a couple of mushrooms thrown in. It's a pudding to put a man in good humour with everything, except the two bottom buttons of his waistcoat.

• Cada mañana me levanto y me digo esto: Es sólo un día, un periodo de veinticuatro horas para salir adelante. No sé exactamente cuándo empecé a darme esta charla diaria ni por qué. Suena como un mantra de doce pasos y yo no estoy en Anything Anonymous, aunque al leer algunas de las tonterías que escriben sobre mí, uno pensaría que debería estarlo. Tengo el tipo de vida por el que mucha gente probablemente vendería un riñón con tal de experimentar un poco. Pero aún así, me veo en la necesidad de recordarme a mí mismo lo efímero que es un día, de asegurarme de que si superé lo de ayer, superaré lo de hoy.

• Leopold Bloom comía con fruición los órganos internos de bestias y aves. Le gustaba la sopa espesa de menudillos, las mollejas de nuez, el corazón asado relleno, las rodajas de hígado fritas con migas, las huevas de gallina fritas. Sobre todo le gustaban los riñones de cordero a la parrilla, que daban a su paladar un fino sabor a orina ligeramente perfumada.

• When I was a player, I'd have a pre-match meal of the biggest lump of fillet steak you could find, followed by rice pudding. Other times I'd have a steak and kidney pie. I'd finish the meal at 12.30 and be playing two-and-a-half hours later.

• A Centaur has a man-stomach and a horse-stomach. And of course both want breakfast. So first of all he has porridge and pavenders and kidneys and bacon and omlette and cold ham and toast and marmalade and coffee and beer. And after that he tends to the horse part of himself by grazing for an hour or so and finishing up with a hot mash, some oats, and a bag of sugar. That's why it's such a serious thing to ask a Centaur to stay for the weeekend. A very serious thing indeed.
