• Though this new forest grew mightily, elsewhere the mighty jungles fell. Elsewhere the coastal rain forests that furred the body of the world were torn and riven. Elsewhere the last of the old growth the last of the world's own garment were ripped away. It was in this time, now, that the mother of us all was stripped naked and left to die in shame of her children, she who had been robed in glory like this, adorned like this. I bent my head upon the roots and wept, sorrowing for the trees.

• I’ve never watched an entire episode of "American Idol." It’s too mean. Why would anyone want to go on a show to be ripped apart? I don’t want to be tough with my singers, but I do want to tell them on "The Voice" that if you really want this, you’ll be kicked when you’re down. You have to be willing to roll with those punches. You have to really want it.

• Devotamente los maestros señalan enormes cúpulas fumigadas; pero bajo las estatuas no hay amor, no hay amor bajo los ojos engarzados en el cristal. El amor está ahí, en la carne desgarrada por la sed, en la diminuta choza que lucha contra la inundación; el amor está ahí, en las zanjas donde luchan las serpientes del hambre, en el triste mar que mece a las gaviotas muertas, y en el más oscuro beso urticante bajo las almohadas.
