• There was something about Beyoncé that felt like a vessel, I guess, that I could kind of impose all of these feelings and thoughts onto.

• Scientists can have their judgment clouded by their professional aspirations.

• Even if the hermits do not appear to benefit other beings with their presence or teachings, still they are enormously inspiring to many.

• So much of what a pet is about for us is that it becomes a vessel for yearnings, dreams, illusions, hopes and so forth. It's a projection of the ultimate innocence and purity. That's why it's hard to see a dog in its dogness. That's why, when some harm comes to a dog, it's much harder for an audience to deal with that, more so than dealing with harm that comes to a child or anything human.

• El Tribunal Supremo no dijo nada acerca de la estupidez, pero sospecho que puede desempeñar un papel más importante de lo que cabría suponer. La gente es, en todo caso, más susceptible de ser considerada tonta que de ser considerada injusta... Es probable que el primer barco negrero, con negros encadenados en su cubierta, pareciera lógico a los propietarios que lo manejaban y a los plantadores que lo patrocinaban. Pero un barco así no entraría hoy en el ámbito del sentido común. El único sentido común, a la larga, es el sentido del cambio.

• Many of the artifacts of my house had become potential devices for my own destruction: the attic rafters (and an outside maple or two) a means to hang myself, the garage a place to inhale carbon monoxide, the bathtub a vessel to receive the flow from my opened arteries. The kitchen knives in their drawers had but one purpose for me.

• There is no place in the kingdom of heaven for a divided heart. It is in the division that love is lost; and to lose My love, My child, is to lose what cannot be regained. For a loving heart is a vessel of light and mercy. It is a receptacle into which I pour My grace. It is untarnished by avarice and indifferent to the call of worldly ambition.
