Fever Quotes - Page 7

• Small groups have always been the locus of change. What they do, in a sometimes offhand way, is constellate new cultural forms and give birth to the unexpected. Sometimes the talk is the thing, sometimes the feeling. When we risk talking about something we really care about it's infectious. Like any good infection, such talk can produce heat, a fever of intellectual excitement.

• The Aedes aegypti mosquito, which spreads dengue fever and yellow fever, has traditionally been unable to survive at altitudes higher than 1,000 meters because of colder temperatures there. But with recent warming trends, those mosquitoes have now been reported at 1,240 meters in Costa Rica and at 2,200 meters in Columbia. Malaria-bearing mosquitoes, too, have moved to higher elevations in central Africa, Asia, and parts of Latin America, triggering new outbreaks of the disease.

• ¡Ah, bebe de nuevo este río que es el que quita el dolor, y el que devuelve la belleza! En estas frescas olas, ¿qué se puede perder? Sólo el triste coste de la cosa hermosa, ¡ah, nunca la cosa misma! La inundación que baña la frente caliente y el hombro rígido está en nuestras sienes ahora. Se ha ido la fiebre, pero no en el río; derretido el orgullo congelado, pero la marea tranquila nunca corre más cálida por esto, nunca más fría. Sumerge el sueño. Empapa el beso. Sumerge la canción en la corriente.

• We are such docile creatures, normally, that it takes a virus to jolt us out of life's routine. A couple of days in a fever bed are, in a sense, health-giving; the change in body temperature, the change in pulse , and the change of scene have a restorative effect on the system equal to the hell they raise.

• Y el silencio. Lo que más le gustaba era el silencio. El silencio en el que el cuerpo, los sentidos, los instintos, están más alerta, más potentes, más sensibilizados, viven una vida más ricamente perfumada y embriagadora, en lugar de transmutarse en pensamientos, en palabras, en exquisitas abstracciones, matemáticas de la emoción en lugar de violentos impactos, las erupciones volcánicas de la fiebre, la lujuria y el deleite.

  Anais Nin

• They sat quietly together for a few minutes, Joe holding Fiona's hand, Fiona sniffling. No flowery words, no platitudes passed between them. Joe would have done anything to ease her suffering, but he knew nothing he might do, or say, could. Her grief would run its course, like a fever, and release her when it was spent. He would not shush her or tell her it was God's will and that her da was better off. That was rubbish and they both knew it. When something hurt as bad as this, you had to let it hurt. There were no shortcuts.

• Si fueras, y espero que algún día lo hagas, verías un montón de cuadros de gente muerta. Verías a Jesús en la cruz, y verías a un tipo apuñalado en el cuello, y verías gente muriendo en el mar y en batalla y un desfile de mártires. Pero no. Ni. Cáncer. Cáncer. Niño. Nadie mordiéndolo por la peste o la viruela o la fiebre amarilla o lo que sea, porque no hay gloria en la enfermedad. No tiene sentido. No hay honor en morir de.

• When a man is overcome by anger, he has a poisoned fever. He loses his strength, he loses his power over himself and over others. He throws away time in which he might have gained the end he desires. The is no time for anger in the world. - The Ancient One

• Don't bother Me with promises. Vows are cheaply manufactured, come with no guarantees. Don't bother to say you love me. The word is indefinable. Joy to some, heartbreak to others, depending on circumstance. There is evidence that the emotion can make a person live longer, evidence it can kill you early. I think it's akin to a deadly disease. Or at least some exotic fever. Catch it, and you'd better, quick, swallow some medication to use as a weapon against the fire ravaging body and soul.

• I have at this moment so many fundamental thoughts, so many truly metaphysical things to say, that I suddenly get tired and decide not to write any more, not to think any more, but to allow the fever of speaking to make me sleepy, and with my eyes closed, like a cat, I play with everything I could have said.

• While the nature of Texas fever is by no means made clear as yet, we are able to affirm that ticks can produce it. Whether the disease can be transmitted by any other agency must be decided by future investigations. Meanwhile the evidence accumulated thus far seems to favor very strongly the dictum: No ticks, no Texas fever.

• But the fevers are on me now, the virus mad to ravage my last fifty T cells. It's hard to keep the memory at full dazzle, with so much loss to mock it. Roger gone, Craig gone, Cesar gone, Stevie gone. And this feeling that I'm the last one left, in a world where only the ghosts still laugh. But at least they're the ghosts of full-grown men, proof that all of us got that far, free of the traps and the lies. And from that moment on the brink of summer's end, no one would ever tell me again that men like me couldn't love.

• Pero las perlas son para llorar, dice la vieja leyenda", había objetado Gilbert. "Eso no me da miedo. Y las lágrimas pueden ser tanto alegres como tristes. Mis momentos más felices han sido cuando tenía lágrimas en los ojos: cuando Marilla me dijo que podía quedarme en Tejas Verdes; cuando Matthew me regaló el primer vestido bonito que tuve; cuando me enteré de que te ibas a recuperar de la fiebre. Así que dame perlas para nuestro anillo de trofeo, Gilbert, y aceptaré de buen grado la pena de la vida con su alegría." -Anne

• You could make a poultice out of mud to cool a fever. You could plant seeds in mud and grow a crop to feed your children. Mud would nourish you, where fire would only consume you, but fools and children and young girls would choose fire every time.
