• Tras el 11-S, mis reuniones con estadounidenses de origen árabe y pakistaní, por ejemplo, tienen un carácter más urgente, porque las historias de detenciones e interrogatorios del FBI y las duras miradas de los vecinos han sacudido su sensación de seguridad y pertenencia. Se les ha recordado que la historia de la inmigración en este país tiene un trasfondo oscuro; necesitan garantías concretas de que su ciudadanía significa realmente algo, de que Estados Unidos ha aprendido las lecciones correctas de los internamientos de japoneses durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y de que yo estaré con ellos si los vientos políticos cambian en una dirección desagradable.

• You have been a very foolish boy, wasting your time dreaming of impossible things when you speak of Mr. Pontellier setting me free! I am no longer one of Mr. Pontelliere's possessions to dispose of or not. I give myself where I choose. If he were to say, 'Here Robert, take her and be happy; she is yours,' I should laugh at you both.

• Just being alive is such a gift, but nobody ever told you to be thankful to existence. On the contrary, everyone was grumpy, complaining. Naturally, if everything surrounding your life from the very beginning goes on pointing out to you that you are not what you should be, goes on giving you great ideals that you have to follow and you have to become, your isness is never praised. What is praised is your future - if you can become someone respectable, powerful, rich, intellectual, in some way famous, not just a nobody.

• That’s why it was so impossible to tell him goodbye — because I was in love with him. Too. I loved him, much more than I should, and yet, still nowhere near enough. I was in love with him, but it was not enough to change anything; it was only enough to hurt us both more. To hurt him worse than I ever had.

• No one can advise or help you - no one. There is only one thing you should do. Go into yourself. Search for the reason that bids you write, find out wether it spreading out its root in the deepest places of your heart...Delve into yourself for a deep answer

• You will find as you grow older that the first thing needful to make the world a tolerable place to live in is to recognize the inevitable selfishness of humanity. You demand unselfishness from others, which is a preposterous claim that they should sacrifice their desires to yours. Why should they? When you are reconciled to the fact that each is for himself in the world you will ask less from your fellows. They will not disappoint you, and you will look upon them more charitably. Men seek but one thing in life -- their pleasure.

  W. Somerset Maugham

• He aprendido mucho este año... He aprendido que las cosas no siempre salen como las planeas o como crees que deberían salir. Y he aprendido que hay cosas que salen mal y que no siempre se arreglan o se vuelven a hacer como antes. He aprendido que algunas cosas rotas permanecen rotas, y he aprendido que puedes superar los malos momentos y seguir buscando otros mejores, siempre que tengas gente que te quiera.

• Debéis esforzaros al máximo para ser lo mejor de vosotros mismos. Al verdadero mal le cuesta operar frente a las extenuantes manifestaciones del bien. Sobre todo si actúas de inmediato. Cuanto más tiempo dejéis que el mal se apodere de vosotros, más difícil será deshacerse de él.

• Está inclinado sobre las cuerdas afinando su guitarra con tanta pasión que casi siento que debería apartar la mirada, pero no puedo. De hecho, me quedo embobada preguntándome cómo sería ser guay y desenfadada y valiente y apasionada y tan jodidamente viva como él, y por un instante quiero tocar con él. Quiero molestar a los pájaros. Más tarde, mientras toca y toca y la niebla se disipa, pienso que tiene razón. Eso es exactamente, estoy muy triste y en el fondo lo único que quiero es volar.
