• Una vez más, no sé muy bien hacia dónde me dirijo Steph. Parece que cada pocos años estoy recogiendo los pedazos de mi vida y volviendo a empezar de cero. No importa lo que haga o lo mucho que me esfuerce, parece que no puedo alcanzar las vertiginosas alturas de la felicidad, el éxito y la seguridad, como hace tanta gente. Y no me refiero a hacerme millonario y vivir feliz para siempre. Me refiero a alcanzar un punto en mi vida en el que pueda dejar de hacer lo que estoy haciendo, echar un vistazo a mi alrededor, respirar aliviado y pensar: "Ahora estoy donde quiero estar".

  Cecelia Ahern

• Qué tortuoso es el lenguaje "eclesiástico" que hay que hablar en la iglesia: el tono, el estilo, la costumbre. Todo es artificial; hay una ausencia total de un lenguaje humano sencillo. Con qué suspiro de alivio se abandona este mundo de sotanas, besos y cotilleos eclesiásticos. En cuanto uno sale, ve: ramas húmedas y desnudas, niebla que flota sobre los campos, los árboles, las casas. El cielo. El atardecer temprano. Y todo dice una verdad increíblemente simple.

• I think if Unchained Melody does what I think it can do, I think there is an audience out there that would heave a sigh of relief, that finally there is a melody and orchestration, production and a vocalist that is giving them a song that they can just listen to... and not be annoyed by the vocal acrobatics that vocalists seem to think is impressive.

• I came to admire this machine which could lift virtually any load strapped to its back and carry it anywhere in any weather, safely and dependably. The C-47 groaned, it protested, it rattled, it leaked oil, it ran hot, it ran cold, it ran rough, it staggered along on hot days and scared you half to death, its wings flexed and twisted in a horrifying manner, it sank back to earth with a great sigh of relief - but it flew and it flew and it flew.

• the various earth odors all have a separate tale to tell, and the leaf mold of the woods bears a wholly different fragrance from that of the soil under pasture turf, or the breath that the garden gives off in great sighs of relief when it is relaxed and refreshed by a summer shower.

• I can't believe that this world can go on beyond our generation and on down to succeeding generations with this kind of weapon on both sides poised at each other without someday some fool or some maniac or some accident triggering the kind of war that is the end of the line for all of us. And I just think of what a sigh of relief would go up from everyone on this earth if someday-and this is what I have-my hope, way in the back of my head-is that if we start down the road to reduction, maybe one day in doing that, somebody will say, 'Why not all the way? Let's get rid of all these things'.

• Inching one's way along a steep cliff in the dark: on reaching the highway, one breathes a sigh of relief. Just when one can't take any more, one sees the moonlight. Beauty that seems to infuse itself into the heart: I know about that

• I'd love to, she finally said,"on one condition." I steadied myself, hoping it wasn't something too awful. "Yes?" "You have to promise that you won't fall in love with me." I knew she was kidding me by the way she laughed, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Sometimes, I had to admit, Jamie had a pretty good sense of humor. I smiled and gave her my word.

• Ed Koch will never "rest in peace." That was not his way. He was always nervously squirming, while making others squirm as well. Comfort was not his goal. He understood that to be a proud and assertive Jew meant never being able to leave a sigh of relief and say "it's over, we are at peace, we can now put down our guard and relax."
