• Enviar seres humanos de vuelta a la Luna no sería avanzar. Pasarían más de 50 años desde el primer alunizaje cuando llegáramos allí, y probablemente seríamos bien recibidos por los chinos. Pero deberíamos volver a la Luna sin astronautas y construir, con robots, una base lunar internacional, para saber cómo construir robóticamente una base en Marte.

• If a man, before he passed from one stage to another, could know his future life in full detail, he would have nothing to live for. It is the same with the life of humanity. If it had a programme of the life which awaited it before entering a new stage, it would be the surest sign that it was not living, nor advancing, but simply rotating in the same place.

• Debes considerar que cierta melancolía y a menudo cierta irascibilidad acompañan a la edad avanzada: de hecho, podría decirse que la edad avanzada es igual al mal humor. Al llegar a la edad madura, un hombre percibe que ya no es capaz de hacer ciertas cosas, que la apariencia que pudo haber tenido le abandona, que tiene una barriga pesada y grande, y que por mucho que arda ya no es atractivo para las mujeres; y se rebela. La fortaleza, la resignación y la filosofía valen más que cualquier pastilla, roja, blanca o azul.

• The rate of progress is so rapid that what one learns at school or university is always a bit out of date. Only a few people can keep up with the rapidly advancing frontier of knowledge, and they have to devote their whole time to it and specialize in a small area. The rest of the population has little idea of the advances that are being made or the excitement they are generating.

• Liar! Liar!" shrieked suddenly from the now open trap door. Miracle Max whirled. "Back, Witch--" he commanded. "I'm not a witch, I'm your wife--" she was advancing on him now, an ancient tiny fury--"and after what you've just done I don't think I want to be that any more--

• Marriage, which has been the bourne of so many narratives, is still a great beginning, as it was to Adam and Eve, who kept their honey-moon in Eden, but had their first little one among the thorns and thistles of the wilderness. It is still the beginning of the home epic - the gradual conquest or irremediable loss of that complete union which make the advancing years a climax, and age the harvest of sweet memories in common.

• Parecía cuestión de minutos cuando empezamos a rodar por las estribaciones antes de Oakland y, de repente, alcanzamos una altura y vimos extendida ante nosotros la fabulosa ciudad blanca de San Francisco sobre sus once colinas místicas, con el Pacífico azul y su muro de niebla de patatas avanzando más allá, y el humo y el dorado en el atardecer del tiempo.

• No matter what the belief, if it had modestly said, 'This is our best thought, go on, think farther!' then we could have smoothly outgrown our early errors and long since have developed a religion such as would have kept pace with an advancing world. But we were made to believe and not allowed to think. We were told to obey, rather than to experiment and investigate.

• There learned arts do flourish in great honour
  And poets's wits are had in peerless price;
  Religion hath lay power, to rest upon her,
  Advancing virtue, and suppressing vice.
  For end all good, all grace there freely grows,
  Had people grace it gratefully to use:
  For God His gifts there plenteously bestows,
  But graceless men them greatly do abuse.

• Muchos libros condenan la cultura "secular", al igual que muchos libros abogan (consciente o inconscientemente) por acomodarnos a la cultura. Brett ha escrito algo muy diferente: un enfoque bíblicamente informado y culturalmente inteligente para consumir la cultura de una manera que honre a Dios, construya comunidad y promueva la misión.

• It will often be a question when a man is or is not wise in advancing unpalatable opinions, or in preaching heresies; but it can never be a question that a man should be silent if unprepared to speak the truth as he conceives it.

• Hay que tener mucho cuidado al presentar la verdad al negro, que nunca antes ha oído la verdad sobre sí mismo. El hermano negro tiene el cerebro tan lavado que puede rechazar la verdad cuando la oye por primera vez. Hay que soltarle un poco cada vez, y esperar un tiempo para que asimile la verdad antes de pasar al siguiente paso.

  Malcolm X
