• My family dumplings are sleek and seductive, yet stout and masculine. They taste of meat, yet of flour. They are wet, yet they are dry. They have weight, but they are light. Airy, yet substantial. Earth, air, fire, water; velvet and elastic! Meat, wheat and magic! They are our family glory!

• Rex Stout's narrative and dialogue could not be improved, and he passes the supreme test of being rereadable. I don't know how many times I have reread the Wolfe stories, but plenty. I know exactly what is coming and how it is all going to end, but it doesn't matter. That's writing.

• El comandante Richard Bong fue un ejemplo del trágico y terrible precio que debemos pagar por mantener los principios de los derechos humanos, de mayor valor que la propia vida. Este valiente héroe de las Fuerzas Aéreas será recordado porque hizo su última contribución a la aviación en el peligroso papel de piloto de pruebas de un avión experimental no probado, una hazaña que le sitúa entre los pioneros de corazón robusto que dieron su vida en la conquista del cielo y el espacio.

• When I was young I spoke like a child I saw with a child's eyes And an open door was to a girl Like the stars are to the sky It's funny how the world lives up to All your expectations With adventures for the stout of heart And the lure of the open spaces There's two lanes running down this road And whichever side you're on Accounts for where you want to go Or what you're running from Back when darkness overtook me On a blind man's curve I relied upon the moon and Saint Christopher

  Mary Chapin Carpenter

• A man must have a stout digestion to feed upon some men's theology; no sap, no sweetness, no life, but all stern accuracy, and fleshless definition. Proclaimed without tenderness, and argued without affection, the gospel from such men rather resembles a missile from a catapult than bread from a Father's hand.

  Charles Spurgeon

• Los comentarios exegéticos sobre los libros de la Biblia tienen muchas formas y tamaños. El nuevo volumen de Harold Hoehner sobre Efesios tiene tanto una forma distintiva como un tamaño monumental. Su valor radica en la atención que presta a los detalles y en la completa discusión de todos los puntos relevantes y controvertidos. El volumen será un recurso inestimable para eruditos y estudiantes. No todas las conclusiones de Hoehner suscitarán aprobación, pero ha producido un volumen robusto y legible al que todos acudirán en busca de orientación y ayuda.

• Sure as the most certain sure .... plumb in the uprights, well entreated, braced in the beams, Stout as a horse, affectionate, haughty, electrical, I and this mystery we stand. Clear and sweet is my soul .... and clear and sweet is all that is not my soul, Lack one lacks both .... and the unseen is proved by the seen Till that becomes unseen and receives proof in its turn. To elaborate is no avail .... Learned and unlearned feel that it is so.

• The most perfect steersman that you can have, and the best helm, lies in the triumphal gateway of copying from nature. And this outdoes all other models; and always rely on this with a stout heart, especially as you begin to gain some judgment in draftsmanship.

• Trees have from time immemorial been closely associated with magic. These stout members of the vegetable kingdom may stand for as long as a thousand years, and tower far above our mortal heads. As such they are symbols and keepers of unlimited power, longevity, and timelessness. An untouched forest, studded with trees of all ages, sizes and types, is more than a mysterious, magical place - it is one of the energy reservoirs of nature. Within its boundaries stand ancient and new sentinels, guardians of the universal force which has manifested on the the Earth. . . .

• Es un gran chiste histórico que cuando los españoles conocieron a los aztecas, fue una cita a ciegas hecha en el paraíso del saque. En aquella época, eran las dos culturas más desagradables del mundo y se lo merecían. Sin embargo, la historia de cómo el corpulento Cortés se abrió camino a golpes, porrazos e intimidación hasta derrumbar todo un imperio con un puñado de matones contagiosos es asombrosa.
