Examining Quotes - Page 3

• Superficial people are those who simply go along without a question in the world-asking nothing, troubled by nothing, examining nothing. Whatever people around them do, they do, too. That's a sad and plastic life-routine and comfortable, maybe, but still sad.

• Writers who think THEY are being criticized when only that writing is being criticized are beyond a teacher's reach. Writing can only be learned when a writer coldly separates himself from what he has written and looks at it with the objectivity of a plumber examining a newly piped bathroom to see if he got all the joints tight.

• Remus Lupin was supposed to be on the H.I.V. metaphor. It was someone who had been infected young, who suffered stigma, who had a fear of infecting others, who was terrified he would pass on his condition to his son. And it was a way of examining prejudice, unwarranted prejudice towards a group of people. And also, examining why people might become embittered when they're treated that unfairly.

• During my practice sessions, I had walked all around the rink examining each corner. I make a habit of doing this before every major competition, to become familiar with the angles. Then I can envision what it will look and feel like when I am the only one on the ice going into a combination jump, skating backwards or getting ready for my triple Lutz. I know exactly where I will be, and so when it comes time to actually perform my routine, ever step and element will be like deja vu.

• Una parábola: Un hombre estaba examinando la construcción de una catedral. Preguntó a un cantero qué hacía picando las piedras, y el cantero respondió: "Estoy haciendo piedras". Preguntó a un tallador de piedra qué estaba haciendo. "Estoy tallando una gárgola". Y así sucesivamente, cada uno contaba con detalle lo que hacía. Finalmente llegó a una anciana que estaba barriendo el suelo. Ella dijo. "Estoy ayudando a construir una catedral." ...La mayoría de las veces, cada persona está inmersa en los detalles de una parte especial del conjunto y no piensa en cómo lo que está haciendo se relaciona con el panorama general.

• It is good to renew ourselves, from time to time, by closely examining the state of our souls, as if we had never done it before; for nothing tends more to the full assurance of faith, than to keep ourselves by this means in humility, and the exercise of all good works.

• Realize that your physical experience and environment is the materialization of your beliefs. If you find great exuberance, health, effective work, abundance, smiles on the faces of those who you meet, then take it for granted that your beliefs are beneficial. If you see a world that is good, people like you, take it for granted again, that your beliefs are beneficial. But if you find poor health, a lack of meaningful work, a lack of abundance, a world of sorrow and evil, then assume your beliefs are faulty and begin examining them.

• Pasé mucho tiempo con una detective de verdad, una inspectora que era la única mujer inspectora en todo el este de Londres. Ella y yo salíamos mucho. Me enseñó lo que hacía y pasé tiempo con ella. Así que [ella fue] una gran inspiración para mi forma de vestir y, a veces, para el diálogo en esas escenas de interrogatorio en las que interrogamos a los jóvenes y tratamos de sacarles una confesión.

• Cuando la troceabas, te metías los trozos en la boca y los tragabas, la hamburguesa británica se amoldaba al fondo de tu estómago como un lastre, al tiempo que interactuaba con tus jugos gástricos para formar un incipiente eructo de enorme potencial, un dirigible que se hubiera inflado en un garaje. Este eructo, cuando se liberaba silenciosamente, hacía que la gente que se encontraba a veinte metros de distancia empezara a examinarse las suelas de los zapatos. La versión vocalizada sonaba como una bolsa de herramientas arrojada a un pantano.

• La disposición a creer lo malo de otros, antes de haberlo examinado debidamente, es el efecto de la pereza y el orgullo. Estamos ansiosos por encontrar al culpable, y reacios a tomarnos la molestia de examinar el crimen.

• To know that no one before you has seen an organ you are examining, to trace relationships that have occurred to no one before, to immerse yourself in the wondrous crystalline world of the microscope, where silence reigns, circumscribed by its own horizon, a blindingly white arena - all this is so enticing that I cannot describe it.
