Light Up Quotes - Page 5

• There yet remains but one concluding tale, And then this chronicle of mine is ended - Fulfilled, the duty God ordained to me, A sinner. Not without purpose did the Lord, Put me to witness much for many years, And educate me in the love of books. One day some indefatigable monk, Will find my conscientious, unsigned work; Like me, he will light up his ikon-lamp, And, shaking from the scroll the age-old dust, He will transcribe these tales in all their truth.

• Wit is something more than a gymnastic trick of the intellect; true wit implies a beam of thought into the essence of a question, a flash that lights up a situation. Wit suggests the delicate but delightful play of a rapier in the hands of a master.

• Lanzó una mirada subrepticia a Pretty Boy. ¿De verdad esperaba que ella creyera que era gay? Es cierto que llevaba botas de gay y era muy guapo. Pero, aun así, desprendía suficiente megavatio heterosexual como para iluminar a toda la población femenina. Algo que, sin duda, había estado haciendo desde que salió disparado del canal del parto, vio su reflejo en las gafas del obstetra y chocó los cinco con el mundo.

• No cabe duda de que la creencia teísta es un consuelo y un solaz para quienes la tienen, y que perderla es una pérdida muy dolorosa. Por lo menos, no lo podemos dudar muchos de nosotros en esta generación, que o bien la profesamos ahora, o bien la recibimos en nuestra niñez y nos hemos separado de ella desde entonces con una angustia tan profunda como sólo las creencias de cuna pueden causar. Hemos visto brillar el sol de primavera desde un cielo vacío, para iluminar una tierra sin alma; hemos sentido con absoluta soledad que el Gran Compañero ha muerto.

• Creativity or talent, like electricity, is something I don’t understand but something I’m able to harness and use. While electricity remains a mystery, I know I can plug into it and light up a cathedral or a synagogue or an operating room and use it to help save a life. Or I can use it to electrocute someone. Like electricity, creativity makes no judgment. I can use it productively or destructively. The important thing is to use it. You can’t use up creativity. The more you use it, the more you have.

• Good-bye, my moonsong and my breath, my white nights and golden days, my fresh water and my fire. Good-bye, and may you find a better life, find comfort again and your breathless smile, and when your beloved face lights up once more at the Western sunrise, be sure what I felt for you was not in vain. Good-bye and have faith, my Tatiana.

• Perhaps [transgression] is like a flash of lightning in the night which, from the beginning of time, gives a dense and black intensity to the night it denies, which lights up the night from the inside, from top to bottom, yet owes to the dark the stark clarity of its manifestation, its harrowing and poised singularity.

• Siempre me resultó más fácil demostrar amor que decirlo. La palabra me recordaba a los bombones: pequeños, preciosos, casi insoportablemente dulces. Me iluminaba en su presencia; me sentía como un sol en la constelación de su abrazo. Pero tratar de expresar con palabras lo que sentía por él lo empequeñecía de algún modo, como clavar una mariposa bajo un cristal o grabar en vídeo un cometa.
