• I maintain that there is no common language or medium of understanding between people of education and without it - between those who judge of things from books or from their senses. Ignorance has so far the advantage over learning; for it can make an appeal to you from what you know; but you cannot re-act upon it through that which it is a perfect stranger to. Ignorance is, therefore, power.

• Me encantaría tener un programa como 'La Dra. Laura'. Estudié psicología en la Universidad de Miami y, cuando volvía a casa en autobús desde la facultad, unos perfectos desconocidos entablaban conversación conmigo y acababan contándome su vida.

• Why don't we talk about your love life? Clary countered. "What about you and Alec?" "Alec refuses to acknowledge that we have a relationship, and so I refuse to acknowledge him. He sent me a fire message asking for a favor the other day. It was addressed to 'Warlock Bane' as if I were a perfect stranger. He's still hung up on Jace, I think, though that relationship will never go anywhere. A problem I imagine you know nothing about.

• En esta cultura no está bien hablar con los amigos de causas en las que crees, y mucho menos pedirles que se unan a ellas. Está bien bombardear a perfectos desconocidos con mensajes groseros cada hora del día, pero da un poco de vergüenza, despierta cierta timidez, parece una intromisión, se corre el riesgo de rechazo al compartir verdaderos compromisos de corazón. Es más fácil compartir nuestro cinismo con desconocidos que nuestros sueños con amigos.

  Donella Meadows
