• Nos enfrentamos al pensamiento convencional que dice que la capacidad de liderazgo como presidente viene dada por la longevidad en Washington o la proximidad a la Casa Blanca.

• Partisanship should be kept out of the pulpit... The blindest of partisans are preachers. All politicians expect and find more candor, fairness, and truth in politicians than in partisan preachers. They are not replied to - no chance to reply to them.... The balance wheel of free institutions is free discussion. The pulpit allows no free discussion.

• Every effort is made to control information. Secrecy is just one of the toggles on their control board. The mindset is in place, and they've done a lot of hiring over eight years, not just political appointees. And they've done a lot of firing or driving people out who might have countermanded or resisted. So, institutionally, it's not going to be simply a matter of flipping the switch to undo it. You're going have to bring in people dedicated to transparency, and you have to demonstrate that there are rewards for candor.

• It would not have suprised Emilio Sandoz that his sex life was discussed with such candor and affectionate concern by his friends.  The single craziest thing about being a priest, he'd found, was that celibacy was simultaneously the most private and most public aspect of his life.

• Psychobabble is... a set of repetitive verbal formalities that kills off the very spontaneity, candor, and understanding it pretends to promote. It's an idiom that reduces psychological insight to a collection of standardized observations, that provides a frozen lexicon to deal with an infinite variety of problems.

• Del cielo caigo, aunque de la tierra empiezo.
  Ninguna dama viva puede mostrar semejante piel.
  Soy brillante como un ángel, y ligera como una pluma,
  Pero pesada y oscura, cuando me aprietas.
  Aunque candor y verdad en mi aspecto llevo,
  pero ayudo a engañar a muchas pobres criaturas.
  Aunque mucho del Cielo aparece en mi apariencia,
  Las impresiones más sucias las tomo fácilmente.
  Mi padre y yo nos producimos mutuamente,
  La madre a la hija, la hija a la madre.

• Las deliciosas memorias de Clyde Phillip Wachsberger sobre el cuidado de los parterres de flores para compensar la soledad de la mediana edad y encontrar un romance inesperado en el camino son un dulce recordatorio de que, como él dice, "en un jardín puede pasar cualquier cosa". Con una prosa que equilibra la franqueza con la cortesía perfecta, nos encanta con el mensaje de que mantener un jardín con un compañero querido, la más efímera de todas las artes, puede proporcionarnos las alegrías y los placeres más duraderos.

• Some frauds succeed from the apparent candor, the open confidence, and the full blaze of ingenuousness that is thrown around them. The slightest mystery would excite suspicion and ruin all. Such stratagems may be compared to the stars; they are discoverable by darkness and hidden only by light.

• It's the artist's duty to have an artist's life, somehow to obtain time and freedom and then to muster the desire and discipline to make good work out of the life, whether that goodness is in the world's aesthetics, its radicalism, its candor, its singularity, or its universality.
