• Nos hemos convertido en una cultura basada en el miedo, especialmente después del 11 de septiembre. En mi opinión, el miedo es lo contrario del amor. Creo que habría más amor en el mundo. No hablo de arco iris y unicornios ni de anuncios de Coca-Cola de los años 70. Hablo de amor descarnado, peligroso y salvaje. Hablo de amor descarnado, peligroso, de ojos salvajes. Aceptación radical de las personas. Pertenencia. Un tipo de amor bueno y absurdo.

• Los niños necesitan saber algo más que unicornios, zombis y vampiros. La retórica que está surgiendo es anti-negra, anti-México, anti-diversidad. [Los adultos] tienen que ponerlo en contexto. He hablado con personas que literalmente no pueden dormir porque están ansiosas. Los niños lo captan. Habla con tu hijo. Dígale: "Esto es lo que me preocupa". Explícale que lo que está pasando es inaceptable.

• The children were overwhelmingly morbid. Not a single adult asked me where butterflies go when they die, but this question was more popular than pixie sticks with the under-four-foot set. I cursed parents for not preparing their children. When I was five, my mother and sister sat me up on the kitchen counter and explained the facts of life: the Easter Bunny didn't exist, Elijah was God's invisible friend, with any luck Nana would die soon, and if I ever saw a unicorn, I should kill it or catch it for cash. I turned out okay.

• The unicorn halted in her slow, desperate round of the cage, realizing for the first time that the magician understood her speech. He smiled, and she saw that his face was frighteningly young for a grown man-untraveled by time, unvisited by grief or wisdom. "I know you," he said.

• The stock market has gone up and if you are stock picking, that's fine, you may do a bit better than the market. But if you want to play in another game where you can get rapid increases of value and so on and so forth, this apparently has become the new parlour game, to invest in these companies and many their cases, the private equity that has been piling in onto of the venture capital is creating the unicorn, in other words the company with the $1 billion valuation.
