• La curiosidad es, en las mentes grandes y generosas, la primera pasión y la última; y tal vez predomine siempre en proporción a la fuerza de las facultades contemplativas. El que comprende fácilmente todo lo que tiene ante sí, y pronto agota cualquier tema, está siempre ávido de nuevas investigaciones; y en la medida en que el ojo intelectual abarca una perspectiva más amplia, debe ser gratificado con variedad, con vuelos más rápidos y excursiones más audaces.

  Samuel Johnson

• Estaba destinada a salir con el capitán del equipo de fútbol, iba a estar de excursión romántica todos los sábados por la noche, estaba destinada a estar recogiendo ramilletes de todos los chicos de la ciudad antes del baile de graduación, aceptando tales ofrendas florales como sacrificios competidores a una diosa de Delfos.

• Home is a blueprint of memory...Finding home is crucial to the act of writing. Begin here. With what you know. With the tales you've told dozens of times...with the map you've already made in your heart. That's where the real home is: inside. If we carry that home with us all the time, we'll be able to take more risks. We can leave on wild excursions, knowing we'll return home.

• Fresh beauty opens one's eyes wherever it is really seen, but the very abundance and completeness of the common beauty that besets our steps prevents its being absorbed and appreciated. It is a good thing, therefore, to make short excursions now and then to the bottom of the sea among dulse and coral, or up among the clouds on mountain-tops, or in balloons, or even to creep like worms into dark holes and caverns underground, not only to learn something of what is going on in those out-of-the-way places, but to see better what the sun sees on our return to common every-day beauty.

• Don't go outside your house to see flowers. My friend, don't bother with that excursion. Inside your body there are flowers. One flower has a thousand petals. That will do for a place to sit. Sitting there you will have a glimpse of beauty inside the body and out of it, before gardens and after gardens.

• You can make all the changes to the island of the tonal you want, you can take excursions into the nagual, but to push yourself into the reordering process is absolutely foolish.

• The businessman who assumes that his life is everything, and the mystic who asserts that it is nothing, fail, on this side and on that, to hit the truth. ‘Yes, I see, dear; it’s about half-way between,’ Aunt Juley had hazarded in earlier years. No; truth, being alive, was not halfway between anything. It was only to be found by continuous excursions into either realm, and though proportion is the final secret, to espouse it at the outset is to ensure sterility.
