Beast Quotes - Page 15

• Hay oscuridad en ti. En todos nosotros, probablemente. Bestias que mantenemos encadenadas. Los hombres corrientes tienen que mantener las cadenas fuertes, porque si dejamos que la bestia se suelte, la sociedad se volverá contra nosotros con una venganza ardiente. Los reyes, sin embargo... bueno, ¿quién está ahí para volverse contra ellos? Así que las cadenas son de paja. La maldición de los reyes, Helikaon, es que pueden convertirse en monstruos. E invariablemente lo hacen.

• En lo alto, más allá del velo de cielo azul que los ocultaba, las estrellas volvieron a cantar; una música pura, fría y difícil. Luego vino un relámpago veloz como el fuego (pero no quemó a nadie), ya fuera del cielo o del propio León, y cada gota de sangre hormigueó en los cuerpos de los niños, y la voz más profunda y salvaje que habían oído nunca decía: "Narnia, Narnia, Narnia, despierta. Ama. Piensa. Habla. Sé árboles andantes. Sean bestias parlantes. Ser aguas divinas.

• He oído decir que hay una cosita llamada amanecer, en la que el sol invierte el proceso que todos vimos la noche anterior. Se podría suponer que tal cosa es tan mítica como esas bestias que guardan los rincones de la tierra, pero yo lo sé de buena tinta y, de hecho, de vez en cuando lo he visto con mis propios ojos.

• Have you ever asked yourself,do monsters make war, or does war make monsters? I've seen things, angel. There are guerrilla armies that make little boys kill thier own families.

• It's dark out, Jack, the stations out there don't identify themselves, we're in it raw-blind like burned rats, it's running out all around us, the footprints of the beast, one nobody has any notion of. The white and vacant eyes of something above there, something that doesn't know we exist. I smell heartbreak up there, Jack, a heartbreak at the center of things, and in which we don't figure at all.

• Kate, perhaps you need to explain to your significant other that he is in no position to give me orders. Last time I checked, his title was Beast Lord, which is a gentle euphemism for a man who strips nude at night and runs around through the woods hunting small woodland creatures. I'm a premier Master of the Dead. I will go where I please.

• I have often wished myself a beast. I preferred the condition of the meanest reptile to my own. Any thing, no matter what, to get rid of thinking!

• If the people of God were to transform the world through fascination, these amazing teachings had to work at the center of these peculiar people. Then we can look into the eyes of a centurion and see not a beast but a child of God, and then walk with that child a couple of miles. Look into the eys of tax collectors as they sue you in court; see their poverty and give them your coat. Look in to the eys of the ones who are hardest for you to like, and see the One you love. For God loves good and bad people.
