• Oh, hey. This looks promising. " We came to a stop before a high, barbwire fence with an enormous PRIVATE PROPERTY--NO UNAUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ALLOWED sign on it.

• Me llamaron a filas en la guerra y me enviaron a un hospital. Vendaba heridas, aplicaba yodo, hacía enemas, transfusiones de sangre. Si el médico ordenaba: "¡Brecht, amputa una pierna!", yo respondía: "¡Por supuesto, Excelencia!", y cortaba la pierna. Si me decían: "¡Realice una trepanación!". abría el cráneo del hombre y jugaba con sus sesos. Vi cómo curaban a los heridos para llevarlos al frente lo antes posible.

• The novel's not the best form for disposing ideas, though that's one thing it can do. It likely is the best form, though, for conveying the experience of us each being alone, trapped in our skulls with only these bodies and this imperfect instrument of language to convey our state and to find meaning and connection.

• Un gasto de los fines a los medios es el destino;Morganización tiranizar sobre el carácter. El menagerie, o formas y poderes de la columna vertebral, es un libro del destino: el pico del pájaro, el cráneo de la serpiente, determinan tiránicamente sus límites.

• They lay listening. Can you do it? When the time comes? When the time comes there will be no time. Now is the time. Curse God and die. What if it doesn't fire? It has to fire. What if it doesn't fire? Could you crush that beloved skull with a rock? Is there such a being within you of which you know nothing? Can there be? Hold him in your arms. Just so. The soul is quick. Pull him toward you. Kiss him. Quickly.

• Los conservadores ven al hombre como un cuerpo que vaga libremente por la tierra, construyendo montones de arena o fábricas - con un ordenador electrónico dentro de su cráneo, controlado desde Washington. Los liberales ven al hombre como un alma que vaga libremente hasta los confines del universo, pero que lleva cadenas de la nariz a los pies cuando cruza la calle para comprar una barra de pan.

• The education system is where young skulls full of mush are programmed and propagandized into the system. They are highly valuable. That's why they're subsidized. You know, universities are approaching the same circumstance we have in health care. What it costs is not related at all to market forces. Meaning what it costs is not related to what people can afford. You get right down to it, how many Americans, how many families can afford 20,000, 30,000, $50,000 a year or semester to send their kids off to college? It has to be subsidized.

• En cierto sentido, Ciudad Abierta es una especie de Wunderkammer, una de esas pequeñas habitaciones montadas con baratijas por los eruditos del Renacimiento. No lo digo como un elogio: estos gabinetes de curiosidades contenían tipos específicos de objetos -mapas, cráneos (como memento mori), obras de arte, animales disecados, muestras de historia natural y libros- y Open City contiene en realidad muchos de los mismos tipos de objetos. Así que no creo que sea tan sencillo como la inclusión literaria.

• Most people don't realize that large pieces of coral, which have been painted brown and attached to the skull by common wood screws, can make a child look like a deer. Most people spend their lives going to bed when they're not sleepy and getting up when they are!

• Los cascos de fútbol americano, que protegen muy bien contra los desgarros del cuero cabelludo y las fracturas de cráneo, no evitan las conmociones cerebrales e incluso pueden agravarlas, ya que mientras el cerebro se agita dentro del cráneo, la cabeza se agita dentro del casco.

• As the skull of the man grows broader, so do his creeds. And his gods they are shaped in his image and mirror his needs. And he clothes them with thunders and beauty, He clothes them with music and fire, Seeing not, as he bows by their altars, That he worships his own desire.

• Pretendemos ser una nación democrática de clase media, pero en realidad amamos a nuestros sangre azul. ... Nos encantan los modales de la escuela preparatoria, la calma aristocrática, el misterio de Skull and Bones, el césped moteado que se extiende ante las casas de verano de Nueva Inglaterra. ¿De qué otra forma puede explicarse el enfrentamiento entre Bush y Kerry que nos enfrenta este año?

• Next time you bump your head, try to imagine being a monkey and getting a steel plate smashed into your skull at 50 miles per hour. Then, only then should you feel compelled to tell me that I'm wrong about my opinions. For all these things have happened in the name of science. They continue in abundance till this day.

• The military is the largest polluter in the country, and so you have a lot of military waste contaminating reservations - as, for example, on the Skull Valley Goshute Reservation, where 5,000 sheep died in some kind of experimental military nerve gas test 10 years ago. Many of our communities are dealing with that kind of waste, and an absence of political will to clean them up.
