• ¿Abandonaría el patriota honesto, en plena marea del experimento exitoso, un gobierno que hasta ahora nos ha mantenido libres y firmes por el temor teórico y visionario de que este gobierno, la mejor esperanza del mundo, pueda por posibilidad carecer de energía para preservarse a sí mismo? Confío en que no.

• Do you think it interests me that this painting represents two figures? These two figures existed, they exist no more. The sight of them gave me an initial emotion, little by little their real presence grew indistinct they became a fiction for me, then they disappeared, or rather, were turned into problems of all kinds. For me they are no longer two figures but shapes and colours, don't misunderstand me, shapes and colours, though, that sum up the idea of the two figures and preserve the vibration of their existence.

• Kinship among nations is not determined in such measurements as proximity of size and age. Rather we should turn to those inner things - call them what you will - I mean those intangibles that are the real treasures free men possess. To preserve his freedom of worship, his equality before law, his liberty to speak and act as he sees fit, subject only to provisions that he trespass not upon similar rights of others - a Londoner will fight. So will a citizen of Abilene. When we consider these things, then the valley of the Thames draws closer to the farms of Kansas and the plains of Texas.

• Los científicos llevan mucho tiempo diciendo que todos estamos interconectados. Los científicos utilizan la palabra "ecosistema" para expresar esta idea. Obviamente, las personas no pueden sobrevivir sin aire y agua, y nosotros dependemos de las plantas y los animales para alimentarnos, y las plantas y los animales dependen de nosotros para preservar sus hábitats.

• I can understand why a system built on a pattern must try to destroy the free mind, for that is one thing which can by inspection destroy such a system. Surely I can understand this, and I hate it and I will fight against it to preserve the one thing that separates us from the uncreative beasts. If the glory can be killed, we are lost.

• Freedom is not just something with which we are born; it is something we achieve. America did not receive a perpetual endowment of freedom; it has had to struggle and fight to preserve it. Freedom is not an heirloom or an antique; it is a life that must fight against the corrosive powers of death and nourish itself on the daily bread of goodness and virtue.

  Fulton J. Sheen

• We're an ignorant nation right now. We're not really capable, I do not think, the majority of our people, of making the decisions that have to be made at election time and particularly in the selection of their legislatures and their Congress and the presidency, of course. I don't think we're bright enough to do the job that would preserve our democracy, our republic. I think we're in serious danger.

• I think it was Roger Fry who first coined what he took to be a final definition of a work of art, whether it was a painting, building, poem or Hepplewhite chair. He said that the best works of art are finished products that preserve 'a valuable state of mind'.

• We are morphing as we go through things, and then we're presented with the notion of a soul. A soul implies more than just the preservation of energy. Science will tell you that you can explode a person, but their energy still exists - even if they're decimated, the universe will preserve that in the form of heat or whatever it is. So there's a preservation of our molecules or whatever, but is there a preservation of a thing that's called the self if that thing is not actually ever one thing?

• Todas las sociedades se basan en normas para proteger a las mujeres embarazadas y a los niños pequeños. Todo lo demás es excedente, excrecencia, adorno, lujo o locura que puede -y debe- desecharse en caso de emergencia para preservar esta función primordial. Como la supervivencia racial es la única moral universal, no hay otra básica posible. Los intentos de formular una "sociedad perfecta" sobre cualquier otra base que no sea "¡Las mujeres y los niños primero!" no sólo son estúpidos, sino automáticamente genocidas. Sin embargo, los idealistas de ojos estrellados (todos ellos hombres) lo han intentado sin cesar, y sin duda seguirán intentándolo.

• El hombre es el producto de causas que no previeron el fin que alcanzaban; su origen, su crecimiento, sus esperanzas y temores, sus amores y creencias, no son más que el resultado de combinaciones accidentales de átomos; ningún fuego, ningún heroísmo, ninguna intensidad de pensamiento y sentimiento, pueden preservar una vida individual más allá de la tumba.

• Creo que es casi imprescindible enamorarse de una idea para invertir el tiempo necesario para que sea buena y merezca la pena compartirla. Y luego, la parte difícil: eliminar esa idea cuando simplemente no es lo que podría ser. Con demasiada frecuencia, las organizaciones son buenas en la primera parte, pero tienen dificultades con la segunda. Por eso defendemos modelos de negocio caducos, apoyamos el statu quo y nos inclinamos por conservar lo que tenemos.
