• We can conceive a thinking being to have either many or few perceptions. Suppose the mind to be reduced even below the life of anoyster. Suppose it to have only one perception, as of thirst or hunger. Consider it in that situation. Do you conceive any thing but merely that perception? Have you any notion of self or substance? If not, the addition of other perceptions can never give you that notion.

• It is only luxury and avarice that make poverty grievous to us; for it is a very small matter that does our business, and when we have provided against cold, hunger, and thirst, all the rest is but vanity and excess.

• Nature satisfies my thirst; it feeds my hunger; it finds me clothing; it affords me shelter; it wraps me around when I sleep with beneficent and watchful care; and it takes me at last to its great bosom, where my ashes mingle with their kindred dust.

• Every new generation in its hour of dawn, filled with the dreams of youth, its thirsts, intoxications and enthusiasms, thinks itself called upon to impel humanity towards heights unmeasured, believes itself an appointed pathfinder, a thinker of thoughts, a doer of deeds greater than any of those which came before. Every new generation desires beauty, but a beauty all its own.

• En nuestras grandes ciudades, la población es impía, materializada,--sin lazos, sin sentimientos de compañerismo, sin entusiasmo. No son hombres, sino hambres, sedes, fiebres y apetitos andantes. ¿Cómo es que la gente se las arregla para vivir, tan sin rumbo como son? Una vez conseguidos sus objetivos, parece como si sólo la cal de sus huesos los mantuviera unidos, y no ningún propósito digno.

• La búsqueda de Dios no es un ejercicio a tiempo parcial, de fin de semana. Si lo es, lo más probable es que experimentes una libertad de fin de semana a tiempo parcial. Permanecer requiere una especie de poder de permanencia. La búsqueda es implacable. Tiene hambre y sed. Arremete como el ciervo tras el arroyo de la montaña. La búsqueda de Dios es una búsqueda apasionada. La indiferencia no sirve. Permanecer en la Palabra es aferrarse tenazmente. Un agarre débil pronto se desvanecerá. El discipulado requiere perseverancia. Nos inscribimos para durar. No nos graduamos hasta el cielo.

• I have drawn people's attention to the fact that art is a mirage. A mirage, just like the oasis that appears in the desert. It is very beautiful, until the moment when you die of thirst, obviously. But we do not die of thirst in the field of art. The mirage has substance.

  Marcel Duchamp

• No hay una diferencia tan grande como algunos hombres imaginan entre los pobres y los ricos; en pompa, espectáculo y opinión, hay mucho, pero poco en cuanto a los placeres y satisfacciones de la vida. Disfrutan de la misma tierra, del mismo aire y del mismo cielo; el hambre y la sed hacen que la carne y la bebida del pobre sean tan agradables y sabrosas como todas las variedades que cubren la mesa del rico; y el trabajo del pobre es más saludable, y también muchas veces más agradable, que la facilidad y la suavidad del rico.

• All things are connected, like the blood that runs in your family "The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father." 1854 The rivers are our brothers. They quench our thirst. They carry our canoes and feed our children. You must give to the rivers the kindness you would give to any brother.
