• Salve, alto Exceso especialmente en el vino,
  A ti en adoración doblo la rodilla
  Que me predicas la abstinencia
  Mi cráneo tu púlpito, como mi barriga tu santuario.
  Precepto sobre precepto, sí, y línea sobre línea,
  Nunca podría persuadir tan dulcemente a estar de acuerdo
  con la razón como tu toque, exacto y libre,
  sobre mi frente y a lo largo de mi columna vertebral.
  A tu orden, renunciando a la copa del placer,
  con la uva caliente no caliento más mi ingenio;
  Cuando me siento en tu taburete de penitencia
  me convierto del todo, pues no puedo levantarme.
  Ingrato el que después vacile
  a hacer nuevos sacrificios en tu altar.

  Ambrose Bierce

• Her kitsch was the image of home, all peace, quiet, and harmony, and ruled by a loving mother and a wise father. It was an image that took shape in her after the death of her parents. The less her life resembled the sweetest of dreams, the more sensitive she was to its magic, and more than once she shed tears when the ungrateful daughter in a sentimental film embraced the neglected father as the windows of the happy family's house shone out into the dying day.

• The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world. When all other friends desert, he remains.

• Music isn't just a pleasure, a transient satisfaction. It's a need, a deep hunger; and when the music is right, it's joy. Love. A foretaste of heaven. A comfort in grief. Is it too much to think that perhaps God speaks to us sometimes through music? How, then, could I be so ungrateful as to refuse the message?

  Orson Scott Card

  Grief, Thinking, Joy

• Las personas a las que has idolatrado nunca pueden, al final, ser ingratas, y, probablemente, en el momento de la retirada todavía hacen justicia a tu corazón. Pero, mientras tengas que acercarte demasiado a esas personas, es seguro que se producirá un retroceso temporal. Es el carácter que se esfuerza por defenderse de una acción que lo calienta y sofoca.

• La respuesta es que uno debe ser tanto temido como amado, pero como es difícil que ambos vayan juntos, es mucho más seguro ser temido que amado, si uno de los dos tiene que faltar. Porque puede decirse de los hombres en general que son ingratos, volubles, disimuladores, ansiosos de evitar el peligro y codiciosos de ganancias; mientras les beneficies, son enteramente tuyos; te ofrecen su sangre, sus bienes, su vida y sus hijos, como he dicho antes, cuando la necesidad es remota; pero cuando se acerca, se rebelan.
