• I love listening to Radio Head's 'Everything in its Right Place' because it's all major chords, it makes you feel really good. It's soothing, it's got a beautiful voice, crazy textures. When I'm down I listen to that song and it really makes me feel good.

• Any good broadcast, not just an Olympic broadcast, should have texture to it. It should have information, should have some history, should have something that's offbeat, quirky, humorous, and where called for it, should have journalism, and judiciously it should also have commentary. That's my ideal.

  Bob Costas

• Ah, hermano mío, es algo mucho más difícil, y es una prueba mucho mayor de un principio cristiano cabal y persistente entretejido en la textura misma de mi alma, seguir adelante con esfuerzo y paciencia, sin ser sorprendido por ninguna pequeña tentación, que reunir en mí mismo la fuerza que Dios me ha dado, y, esperando que una gran tormenta se abata sobre mí, permanecer firme y dejar que arrecie. Es mucho más fácil morir una vez por Cristo que vivir siempre para Él.

• Los hombres y las mujeres no se someten fácilmente a un poder que no se entreteje en la textura de su existencia cotidiana, una de las razones por las que la cultura sigue siendo tan vital desde el punto de vista político.

• Animals come from nature. They were not designed. All my inspiration comes from nature, whether it's an animal or the layout of bark or of a leaf. Sometimes my patterns are very bold, and you can barely see where they come from, but all the textures and all the prints come out of nature.

• Symbolic of life, hair bolts from our head[s]. Like the earth, it can be harvested, but it will rise again. We can change its color and texture when the mood strikes us, but in time it will return to its original form, just as Nature will in time turn our precisely laid-out cities into a weed-way.

  Diane Ackerman

• In spite of all the talk and study about our next years, all the silent ponderings about what lies within them...it seems plain to us that many things are wrong in the present ones that can be, must be, changed. Our texture of belief has great holes in it. Our pattern lacks pieces.

• El negro es la ausencia de todo color. El blanco es la presencia de todos los colores. Supongo que la vida debe ser una cosa o la otra. En general, creo que prefiero el color a su ausencia. Pero el negro añade profundidad y textura al color. Quizá ciertos tonos de gris sean necesarios para una paleta completa. Incluso el negro sin relieve. Ah, una pregunta filosófica profunda. ¿Es el negro necesario para la vida, incluso para una vida feliz? ¿Podríamos ser felices si no experimentáramos al menos ocasionalmente la miseria?
