• El significado del sábado es celebrar el tiempo en lugar del espacio. Seis días a la semana vivimos bajo la tiranía de las cosas del espacio; el sábado intentamos sintonizar con la santidad en el tiempo. Es un día en el que estamos llamados a compartir lo que es eterno en el tiempo, a pasar de los resultados de la creación al misterio de la creación; del mundo de la creación a la creación del mundo.

• El "Kumulipo" es un antiguo canto hawaiano que describe poéticamente la creación del mundo. La palabra significa literalmente "comienzo en la profunda oscuridad". En este caso, oscuridad no significa oscuridad y maldad. Más bien se refiere a la inescrutabilidad del estado embrionario; el oscuro caos que reina antes de la germinación.

• There is an idea in Kabbalah that the creation of the world is created through space. God is an ever present Being, and in order for anything outside of Him to exist, like this world for example, there needs to be what's called a TumTum[a], or a withdrawal of Godly-like. And that withdrawal happens not by connection but actually by separation. Conflict. And in the gap of that conflict is where the world is situated. That's where the world is created and lived.

• If you start parsing the cause-and-effect chain backward through time, eventually you land in cosmology - does the story begin with the Big Bang or the out-of-nothing creation of the world by the word of a Southern Baptist god? And that question is even more fraught than any of the others. The stakes couldn't be any higher, because not it's not just a question of life and death, but also a question of life after death or eternal torture after death.

• La risa ruidosa es la alegría de la plebe, que sólo se complace con cosas tontas; porque el verdadero ingenio o el buen sentido nunca han provocado una risa desde la creación del mundo. Por lo tanto, a menudo se ve sonreír a un hombre de posición y a la moda, pero nunca se le oye reír.

• It's the perpetually unfinished quality of housework that makes it oppressive - it never ends, like bad psychoanalysis, or a dream interrupted. It is paradoxically true that it is exactly this daily re-creation of the world that lends housekeeping its nobility and romance.

• All doctrines relating to the creation of the world, the government of man by superior beings, and his destiny after death, are conjectures which have been given out as facts, handed down with many adornments by tradition, and accepted by posterity as "revealed religion". They are theories more or less rational which uncivilised men have devised in order to explain the facts of life, and which civilised men believe that they believe.
