• Y le dije: 'Oye, Lama, oye, ¿qué tal un poco de algo, ya sabes, por el esfuerzo, ya sabes.' Y él dice, 'Oh, uh, no habrá dinero. Pero cuando mueras, en tu lecho de muerte, recibirás la conciencia total'. Así que tengo eso a mi favor, lo cual es bueno.

• The most pernicious aspect of procrastination is that it can become a habit. We don't just put off our lives today; we put them off till our deathbed. Never forget: This very moment, we can change our lives. There never was a moment, and never will be, when we are without the power to alter our destiny. This second we can turn the tables on Resistance. This second, we can sit down and do our work.

• It seemed to Scobie that life was immeasurably long. Couldn’t the test of man have been carried out in fewer years? Couldn’t we have committed our first major sin at seven, have ruined ourselves for love or hate at ten, have clutched at redemption on a fifteen-year-old deathbed?

• A new kind of award has been added -- the deathbed award. It is not an award of any kind. Either the recipient has not acted at all, or was not nominated, or did not win the award the last few times around. It is intended to relieve the guilty conscience of the Academy members and save face in front of the public. The Academy has the horrible taste to have a star, choking with emotion, present this deathbed award so that there can be no doubt in anybody's mind why the award is so hurriedly given. Lucky is the actor who is too sick to watch the proceedings on television.

• Así que, por mucho que dijéramos palabras cerca el uno del otro, esto nunca podía convertirse en algo que pudiera llamarse una conversación. Era como si habláramos en idiomas diferentes.
