• Este es uno de los resultados de ese espíritu aventurero que ahora acecha y se desboca por sus propias innovaciones. No sólo hemos rechazado la AUTORIDAD, sino que también hemos desechado la EXPERIENCIA; y a menudo el barco sin carga se dirige a todos los puntos de la brújula, y los pasajeros ya no saben adónde van. La sabiduría de los sabios y la experiencia de los siglos pueden conservarse mediante la CITA.

  Ester Dean

• Every discoverer of a new truth, or inventor of the method which evolves it, makes a dozen, perhaps fifty, useless combinations, experiments, or trials for one successful one.

• Well, if Democratic members in the House elect Nancy Pelosi as their leader, it's almost as if they just didn't get the message from the voters this election. I mean, the voters outright rejected the agenda that she's been about. And here they're going to put her back in charge.

• Las pruebas imaginarias no son fiables y, en muchos casos, suponen una enorme pérdida de tiempo y energía. En realidad, no sabes lo que va a pasar hasta que lo pruebas. Puedes montar un negocio y que despegue de una forma que nadie podría predecir. O podría ser un completo fracaso. Podrías pedir una cita y acabar con la pareja de tus sueños. O podría ser rechazado en frío. Está muy bien visualizar lo que quieres, pero nunca sabes realmente lo que va a pasar hasta que actúas.
