• Your soul is more magnificent, beautiful, and gigantic than you can possibly imagine. A human mind can only contain a tiny fraction of what you are.

You put a tiny part of yourself into the vessel, and when you bring it back out, you've gained all the experiences it had.

  Andy Weir

  Beautiful, Glasses, Water

• You know, I think that allowing somebody, one mere person to believe that he or she is like, the vessel you know, like the font and the essence and the source of all divine, creative, unknowable, eternal mystery is just a smidge too much responsibility to put on one fragile, human psyche. It's like asking somebody to swallow the sun.

• La reliquia de antes de nacer Entra un día en el corazón de uno. Sé tan cuidadoso como si sostuvieras una vasija llena, Sé tan gentil como si acariciaras a un infante. La puerta de la tierra debe estar bien cerrada, Los portales del cielo deben abrirse primero. Limpia los brotes amarillos, Y en lo alto de la montaña el trueno sacude la tierra.

  Sun Bu'er

  Corazón, Amarillo, Meditación

• Una persona debería salir al agua en un buen día a poca distancia de una hermosa costa, si quiere ver a la Naturaleza sonreír de verdad. Nunca tiene un aspecto tan encantador como cuando el sol se refleja brillantemente en el agua, mientras las olas ondulan suavemente, y la perspectiva recibe vida y animación del tránsito de un bote de remos ocasional, y el movimiento más tranquilo de algunas embarcaciones pequeñas. Pero la tierra debe estar bien a la vista; no sólo por su propio bien, sino porque la inmensidad y lo terrible de una mera vista del mar no concordaría con las otras partes de la brillante y alegre escena.

• To be without health insurance in this country means to be without access to medical care. But health is not a luxury, nor should it be the sole possession of a privileged few. We are all created b'tzelem elohim - in the image of God - and this makes each human life as precious as the next. By 'pricing out' a portion of this country's population from health care coverage, we mock the image of God and destroy the vessels of God's work.

  Alexander Schindler

• Cada fecha límite era una crisis... Sin duda tiene algo que ver con un defecto de personalidad profundamente arraigado, o tal vez una torcedura en cualquier vaso sanguíneo que desemboque en la glándula pineal... Por otra parte, podría ser fácilmente algo tan simple y básicamente perverso como cualquier instinto que haga que una liebre espere hasta el último segundo posible para lanzarse a través de la carretera delante de un coche que va a toda velocidad.

• You know a dream is like a river
  Ever changing as it flows.
  And a dreamer's just a vessel
  That must follow where it goes.
  Trying to learn from what's behind you
  And never knowing what's in store
  Makes each day a constant battle
  Just to stay between the shores.
