Sand Castle Quotes

• Somos como niños construyendo un castillo de arena. Lo adornamos con hermosas conchas, trozos de madera y cristales de colores. El castillo es nuestro, está fuera del alcance de los demás. Estamos dispuestos a atacar si otros amenazan con dañarlo. Sin embargo, a pesar de todo nuestro apego, sabemos que la marea inevitablemente subirá y barrerá el castillo de arena. El truco está en disfrutarlo plenamente pero sin aferrarnos, y cuando llegue el momento, dejar que se disuelva de nuevo en el mar.

• ¿Quiénes son las personas más felices del mundo? Un artesano o un artista silbando por un trabajo bien hecho. Un niño pequeño construyendo castillos de arena. Una madre, después de un día ajetreado, bañando a su bebé. Un médico que ha terminado una operación difícil y peligrosa y ha salvado una vida humana. La felicidad reside en el trabajo constructivo bien hecho. Saca tu felicidad de tu trabajo o nunca sabrás lo que es la felicidad.

  Elbert Hubbard

• Once we begin to appreciate that the apparent destructiveness of the toddler in taking apart a flower or knocking down sand castles is in fact a constructive effort to understand unity, we are able to revise our view of the situation, moving from reprimand and prohibition to the intelligent channeling of his efforts and the fostering of discovery.

• We start out postulating sharp boundaries, such as between humans and apes, or between apes and monkeys, but are in fact dealing with sand castles that lose much of their structure when the sea of knowledge washes over them. They turn into hills, leveled ever more, until we are back to where evolutionary theory always leads us: a gently sloping beach.

• Apart from The Holiday, I haven't really spent a huge amount of time in LA. Not that I avoid it, it's just that I don't often go there unless I'm doing press.
