• I've remembered that most of life is about small, essential connections, so unobtrusive, so elastic, that you scarcely realize they're actually holding you together. The big ones-the great, grand emotional bonds-those are the ones that break, the ones that fail you, the ones that give way and send you careening toward the foot of the bleak and jagged canyon. It's the tough, gnarled, unadorned ties that really do bind, that never let you fall all the way down into darkness.

• It is very easy to shun someone who is deliberately cruel, and everyone loathes a man who is brutal and vicious. Such people have a hard time winning followers. But an individual who is gracious, who is attractive, who smiles and flatters and praises - that is a person who can lead whole nations to disaster. Who would not want to follow such a man or woman? Everyone is drawn to beauty and wit.

Even if he left her, she would be camped in his heart, an insistent and willful presence. She would match her strides to his on any journey he ever took; she would lie beside him on any bed. Amalie, he said, "that's the easiest promise I've ever had to make.

And if there is no god to watch over me, chastise me, grieve for me, rejoice for me, make me fear, and make me wonder, what am I but a collection of metals and liquids with nothing to celebrate about my daily living?

• Entonces, ¿me gustaría ser rey? No es una pregunta que me haga a mí mismo. Me pregunto: ¿Sería un buen rey? ¿Sería ingenioso y generoso de espíritu y estaría lleno de esa energía ilimitada? ¿O sería torpe y estúpido y estaría embotado por mis propios prejuicios? Trato de ser un buen hombre, ya que estoy vivo, y espero que eso me enseñe lo que necesitaría saber si alguna vez me enfrentara a un reto mayor.
