  Can never be recalled. The gods implore not,
  Plead not, solicit not; they only offer
  Choice and occasion, which once being passed
  Return no more. Dost thou accept the gift?

• Las palabras de la Declaración de Independencia, tal como Washington las hizo efectivas... deben ser aceptadas como reales y no como frases vacías... que en verdad éste es un gobierno del pueblo mismo, que la Constitución es suya, que los tribunales son suyos, que todos los agentes y agencias del gobierno son suyos.... Corresponde al propio pueblo decidir finalmente todas las cuestiones de política pública y hacer efectiva su decisión... Aquí, en América, tenemos en nuestras manos la esperanza del mundo.

• A los desertores norcoreanos les suele costar asentarse. No es fácil para alguien que ha escapado de un país totalitario vivir en el mundo libre. Los desertores tienen que redescubrir quiénes son en un mundo que ofrece infinitas posibilidades. Elegir dónde vivir, qué hacer, incluso qué ropa ponerse por las mañanas, ya es bastante difícil para quienes estamos acostumbrados a tomar decisiones; puede ser totalmente paralizante para quienes el Estado ha tomado las decisiones por ellos durante toda su vida.

• I think, for the good of the country and the fact that you don't want a question coming up every time there's a decision made, [Donald Trump] should basically take himself out of it and just be a passive participant in the sense that he has no decision-making, no involvement and no decisions get made separate from him. Which is the way the way it's done for more Cabinet offices. Or I think all Cabinet offices.

• We're going to go to the moon. We're going to go on to Mars. We're going to set up a base on the moon. OK, but no money to pay for it, nothing in the budget for it. And so the decision made at that time was to cancel the whole shuttle program to save money, which I think was very, very short sighted.

• Pictures are written, acted, directed, photo­graphed, edited, scored and all that. The screenwriter determines what scenes are in and what scenes are out; decides whether that bit of information is dramatized or just referred to; whether it takes place on or off screen. There are millions of decisions made by the screenwriter.

• To play chess on a truly high level requires a constant stream of exact, informed decisions, made in real time and under pressure from your opponent. What's more, it requires a synthesis of some very different virtues, all of which are necessary to good decisions: calculatioñ, creativity and a desire for results. If you ask a Grandmaster, an artist and a computer scientist what makes a good chess player, you'll get a glimpse of these different strengths in action.

• I have not said your values are wrong. But neither are they right. They are simply judgments. Assessments. Decisions. For the most part, they are decisions made not by you, but by someone else. Your parents, perhaps. Your religion. Your teachers, historians, politicians.

• Every day, there are 770 million Cokes consumed, which means that there are 770 million purchasing decisions made each day regarding the product. To support those decisions, the company must constantly reinvest in its marketing links to its customers. As a result, a high level of creativity must go into everything the company does, from cause-related campaigns - Coca-Cola and its sponsorship of the Olympic Village in Atlanta, for example - to new catch phrases, commercials, marketing slogans, advertising campaigns and promotional tie-ins.

• Stories, as much as we like to talk about them, retrospectively, as emanations of theme or worldview or intention, occur primarily as technical objects when they're being written. Or at least they do for me. They're the result of thousands of decisions made at speed during revision.

• When we don't pay close attention to the decisions made by our leaders, when we fail to educate ourselves about the major issues of the day, when we choose not to make our voices and opinions heard, that's when democracy breaks down. That's when power is abused. That's when the most extreme voices in our society fill the void that we leave. That's when powerful interests and their lobbyists are most able to buy access and influence in the corridors of power - because none of us are there to speak up and stop them.

• Actually, I can't take credit for any of my decisions. I noticed one day that all my decisions were making themselves, and always at the right time. I haven't had to make one decision since then. They are always made for me, and they come from the wisdom that is in us all. I trust that wisdom completely. That trust itself was a decision made for me as inquiry cleared my mind. No decision, no fear.

• Eso es absolutamente cierto, pero un problema de la revolución digital, que puede enlazar con lo que he dicho antes, es que puede haber un colapso de la calidad. Puede que no te gustasen las decisiones tomadas por los editores en el pasado, puede que no te gustasen las decisiones tomadas por los editores de revistas o periódicos en el pasado. Al menos había cierto control de calidad.
