• Los hombres que llegan tarde nunca están seguros. Son todo lo que los libros de educación cívica nos dicen que debe ser un buen ciudadano: partidarios pero nunca fanáticos, respetuosos con los hechos que rodean a cada situación pero nunca inflexibles con esos hechos, incómodos en posiciones de liderazgo pero raramente incapaces de rechazar una responsabilidad una vez que se les ha ofrecido... o se les ha impuesto. Son los mejores líderes de una democracia porque es poco probable que se enamoren del poder.

• Physically it's kind of lassitude, the apathy and tiredness that precedes the flu or some other illness, or death. My legs ache and feel heavy, my skin has become more sensitive to cold and to heat, to the hardness or rigidity of things. Nothing interests me, I feel uncomfortable being still but would feel even more uncomfortable if I moved. I don't know whether speaking is painful or just boring. I sit here, staring straight ahead, with no desires, no needs, hollow. I'm not even sad. I feel only passivity and indifference.

• It is difficult to hate an idea. That requires a certain intellectual discipline and a slightly obsessive, sick mind. There aren’t too many of those. It’s much easier to hate someone with a recognizable face whom we can blame for everything that makes us feel uncomfortable. It doesn’t have to be an individual character. It could be a nation, a race, a group. . .anything.

• Soy de la firme opinión de que, después de los veintiún años, un hombre no debería estar fuera de la cama y despierto a las cuatro de la mañana. La hora engendra pensamiento. A los veintiún años, la vida es todo futuro, puede ser examinada con impunidad. Pero a los treinta, convertida en una incómoda mezcla de futuro y pasado, es algo que sólo debe mirarse cuando el sol está alto y el mundo lleno de calor y optimismo.
