Torn Quotes - Page 5

• Para un psicoanalista, una mujer piloto, sobre todo casada y con hijos, debe resultar un tema tan interesante como inagotable. Desgarrada entre dos amores, emocionalmente confusa, el deseo de volar una enfermedad incurable que devora su vida en la lenta tortura de la frustración, no puede ser una personalidad simple y natural.

• I'm torn about late parenting. I believe people should spend their twenties living and having fun and not having any regrets later. I also think people in their thirties generally make better parents but so many of my friends are having trouble - myself included - as fathers get older.

• Somos uno... solo... y únicamente... y te amamos a ti que eres uno... solo... y únicamente. Nos miramos a los ojos y supimos que el aliento de un milagro nos había tocado, y huido, y nos había dejado tanteando en vano. Y nos sentimos desgarrados, desgarrados por alguna palabra que no podíamos encontrar.

• We must in imagination sweep off the drifted matter that clogs the surface of the ground; we must suppose all the covering of moss and heath and wood to be torn away from the sides of the mountains, and the green mantle that lies near their feet to be lifted up; we may then see the muscular integuments, and sinews, and bones of our mother Earth, and so judge of the part played by each of them during those old convulsive movements whereby her limbs were contorted and drawn up into their present posture.

• In the City of God there will be a great thunder,
  Two brothers torn apart by Chaos,
  while the fortress endures,

  The third big war will begin when the big city is burning

• Las buenas noticias no son noticias. Las malas noticias venden. La confrontación vende. Y eso es lo que siempre busca la prensa. No estoy presumiendo, pero tengo el más alto índice de aprobación de trabajo de cualquier funcionario público en la ciudad. Y lo he tenido constantemente. El índice de aprobación del departamento de policía es del 70%. Esta noción de que detener y cachear ha desgarrado a la comunidad es falsa.

• Those first few weeks are an unearthly season. From the outside you remain so ordinary, no one can tell from looking that you have experienced an earthquake of the soul. You've been torn asunder, invested with an ancient, incomprehensible magic. It's the one thing that we never quite get over: that we contain our own future.

• Si Allah hubiera levantado el velo para su siervo y le hubiera mostrado cómo Él maneja sus asuntos por él, y cómo Allah está más interesado en el beneficio del siervo que en su propio yo, su corazón se habría derretido por el amor a Allah y se habría hecho pedazos por el agradecimiento a Allah. Por eso, si las penas de este mundo te cansan, no te aflijas. Porque puede ser que Allah desee oír tu voz por medio de la Dua'a. Así que derrama tus deseos en la postración y olvídate de ello y sabe; que ciertamente Allah no lo olvida.

• Mourning has become unfashionable in the United States. The bereaved are supposed to pull themselves together as quickly as possible and to reweave the torn fabric of life. ... we do not allow ... for the weeks and months during which a loss is realized - a beautiful word that suggests the transmutation of the strange into something that is one's own.

• Animals are murdered to produce meat; vegetables are torn up, peeled, and chopped; most of what we eat is treated with fire; and chewing is designed remorselessly to finish what killing and cooking began. People naturally prefer that none of this should happen to them. Behind every rule of table etiquette lurks the determination of each person present to be a diner, not a dish.
