Leaving Quotes - Page 9

• Los niños menores de 5 años tienen el doble de probabilidades de morir por ingerir venenos domésticos que por disparos - Así que la pregunta para la Legislatura debería ser: ¿Es un padre responsable penalmente por dejar un recipiente de lejía sin cerrar debajo del fregadero?

• Science has rolled its war wagons over the crushed myths of so many religious beliefs. It has marshaled its mechanics to explain the motions of the sun, moon, and stars. It has mapped the heavens, leaving no place for gods to live.

• With such global events looming over us like mountains, nay, like entire mountain ranges, it may seem incongruous and inappropriate to recall that the primary key to our being or non-being resides in each individual human heart, in the heart’s preference for specific good or evil. Yet this remains true even today, and it is, in fact, the most reliable key we have. The social theories that promised so much have demonstrated their bankruptcy, leaving us at a dead end.

• Toda religión miente. Todo precepto moral es un engaño. Incluso las estrellas son un espejismo. La verdad es oscuridad, y lo único que importa es pronunciarse antes de entrar en ella. Cortar la piel del mundo y dejar una cicatriz. Al fin y al cabo, eso es todo lo que es la historia: una cicatriz.

• Mientras salimos del hotel King's Arms después de la comida del domingo, observo una hermosa paloma blanca que camina por la carretera mojada. Se acerca un coche y el ave gira accidentalmente hacia la rueda en lugar de alejarse de ella. Un suave crujido. El coche pasa. Una forma parecida a una servilleta desechada queda en la carretera. Todavía perfectamente blanca, sin manchas rojas, pero que ya no guarda ninguna relación con la forma de un pájaro. Una estela de plumas blancas revolotea por la carretera tras el coche. Lo repentino es muy perturbador. Ese suave crujido.

• What will seduce a person is the effort we expend on their behalf, showing how much we care, how much they are worth. Leaving things to chance is a recipe for disaster, and reveals that we do not take love and romance very seriously.

• Si... Dios exaltó a Cristo porque se humilló a sí mismo, sufrió deshonra, fue tentado y soportó una cruz vergonzosa y la muerte por nuestro bien, ¿cómo nos salvará, glorificará y elevará si no elegimos la humildad, ni mostramos amor a nuestros semejantes, ni ganamos nuestras almas soportando la tentación (cf. Lc. 21:19), ni seguimos la Guía salvadora a través de la "puerta estrecha" y a lo largo del "camino estrecho" que conduce a la vida eterna (Mt. 7:14)? Para esto hemos sido llamados, dice Pedro, el Apóstol Mayor: "Porque también Cristo padeció por nosotros, dejándonos ejemplo para que sigamos sus pisadas" (I Pe. 2, 21).

• ...the souls of the dead [are] not deprived of their intellectual faculties but... they also are not lacking in feelings such as hope and sadness, joy and fear. They already have a foretaste of what is in store for them after the general judgment. Nor does it happen, as some unbelievers would hold, that upon leaving this world they are turned to nothing. Actually they live more intensely and they concentrate more on the praises of God.
