• Esos viejos hipócritas. Hablan de matar brujas, pero el Buen Libro está lleno de magia. Convirtiendo el Nilo en sangre y separando el Mar Rojo. ¿Qué es eso si no es magia a la antigua? ¿Quieres un poco de agua en vino? No hay problema. ¿Qué tal resucitar al muerto Lázaro? Sólo tienes que decirlo.

  Clive Barker

• If, I can someday see M. Claude Monet's garden, I feel sure that I shall see something that is not so much a garden of flowers as of colours and tones, less an old-fashioned flower garden than a colour garden, so to speak, one that achieves an effect not entirely nature's, because it was planted so that only the flowers with matching colours will bloom at the same time, harmonized in an infinite stretch of blue or pink.

  Marcel Proust

• We were impelled to remain loyal for a while to the memory of Penny. It was a form of the old fashioned custom of going into mourning. It is not a question of going around with a long face. It is just a question of having a pause between the old and the new. No haste to find a substitute for the one who has given you love for years. Wait, and let fate provide the answer.

Still another said all he needed was a good old-fashioned spanking.

• He escrito unos 2.000 relatos cortos; sólo he publicado 300 y siento que sigo aprendiendo. El que sigue trabajando no es un fracasado. Puede que no sea un gran escritor, pero si aplica las viejas virtudes del trabajo duro y constante, acabará haciéndose algún tipo de carrera como escritor. Ray Bradbury(Haciendo cuentas, eso significa que por cada historia que vendió, escribió seis "no publicables". Sigue escribiendo).

• Siempre tienes la llave del arrepentimiento para abrir la puerta de la cárcel. Si te lanzan la palabra diversidad, agárrala y di: "Ya soy diverso, y pretendo seguir siéndolo". Si la palabra es tolerancia, agárrala también y di: "Espero que seas tolerante con mi estilo de vida: obediencia, integridad, abstinencia, arrepentimiento". Si la palabra es elección, diles que eliges la buena moralidad a la antigua usanza.

  Boyd K. Packer

• Antes se pensaba que los acontecimientos que cambiaban el mundo eran cosas como las grandes bombas, los políticos maníacos, los grandes terremotos o los grandes movimientos de población, pero ahora se ha comprendido que se trata de una visión muy anticuada mantenida por personas totalmente alejadas del pensamiento moderno.
