Antlers Quotes

• El padre de una hija no es más que un rehén de lujo. Un padre pone cara de piedra a sus hijos, los reprende, sacude la cornamenta, da zarpazos en el suelo, resopla, los corre hacia la maleza, pero cuando su hija le pasa el brazo por encima del hombro y le dice: "Papá, tengo que preguntarte algo", es como un trozo de mantequilla en una sartén caliente.

• Treasured Pagan Deities were misrepresented and distorted by the Christians for political and religious gain. Dressing their own Satan, who has remained one of the most opressive symbols of evil in our time, in the horned antlers of Cernunnos, a revered Celtic God, was one of the more recognizable ways Christians robbed Pagans of their way of life.

• Did you know that I almost called the magazine Stag Party and the symbol was originally going to be a stag? I changed my mind just before we went to press, thank God. Somehow, it wouldn't have been the same. Can you imagine a chain of key clubs staffed by beautiful girls wearing antlers?

• Donde antes se alzaban los pinos firmes, grandes, hermosos, dulces, mi mano tocó tocones crudos y húmedos. A mi alrededor había ramas rotas, como las astas de un ciervo herido. El fragante serrín amontonado se arremolinaba y revoloteaba a mi alrededor. Me invadió un resentimiento irracional por la destrucción despiadada de la belleza que amo.

• Las cabezas de ciervo disecadas en las paredes ya son bastante malas, pero es peor cuando las ves con gafas oscuras, serpentinas alrededor del cuello y un sombrero en la cornamenta. Porque entonces sabes que estaban disfrutando en una fiesta cuando les dispararon.

• Nadie podría argumentar con cara seria que las parejas que se casan hoy son mucho más felices sólo porque sus celebraciones nupciales cuesten tres veces más que las de 1980. Las mansiones más grandes y las fiestas más costosas son un despilfarro en el mismo sentido en que lo son las cornamentas más grandes de todos los alces toros. La buena noticia es que unos simples cambios en el sistema fiscal pueden eliminar gran parte de este despilfarro sin tener que negar a la gente el derecho a decidir por sí misma cómo gastar mejor su dinero.

• The tragedy of a species becoming unfit for life by over-evolving one ability is not confined to humankind. Thus it is thought, for instance, that certain deer in paleontological times succumbed as they acquired overly-heavy horns. The mutations must be considered blind, they work, are thrown forth, without any contact of interest with their environment. In depressive states, the mind may be seen in the image of such an antler, in all its fantastic splendour pinning its bearer to the ground.

• When we put the antlers on the model and then draped over it the lace embroidery that we had made, we had to poke them through a £2,000 piece of work. But then it worked because it looks like she's rammed the piece of lace with her antlers. There's always spontaneity. You've got to allow for that in my shows.

• Don't order any of the faerie food," said Jace, looking at her over the top of his menu. "It tends to make humans a little crazy. One minute you're munching a faerie plum, the next minute you're running naked down Madison Avenue with antlers on your head. Not," he added hastily, "that this has ever happened to me.

• We could see the children's toys here and there, and we saw a game that the children had made themselves out of dirt, deer antlers and abalone shells, but the game was so strange that only children could tell what it was. Perhaps it wasn't a game at all, only the grave of a game.

• Los estadounidenses de a pie, y especialmente la pequeña minoría activa en las primarias demócratas y republicanas, deben aprender más de lo que la gente de todo el mundo piensa y dice sobre Estados Unidos. Porque si siguen eso, se darán cuenta de que la erosión del poder estadounidense se está produciendo más rápidamente de lo que la mayoría de nosotros predijimos - mientras los políticos de Washington se comportan como ciervos en celo con la cornamenta bloqueada.

• I’m beginning to sense a theme,” Mircea said, tossing his suit coat over a buckskin-covered chair. A moose head with huge, outspread antlers loomed over it, its bright glass eyes looking oddly lifelike in the low light. Mircea took in the room, his expression slightly repulsed yet fascinated. “I believe there is only one thing to say at this point.” What’s that?” Yee haw,” he said gravely, and took me down like a rodeo calf.
