• Así fue como acabaste en la Inquisición. Cuando dejaste de ver la diferencia entre los de la Luz y los de la Oscuridad. Cuando para ti las personas ni siquiera eran un rebaño de ovejas, sino un puñado de arañas en un tarro de cristal. Cuando dejaste de creer en el futuro, y lo único que querías era preservar el statu quo. Por ti mismo. Para aquellos pocos individuos que aún te eran queridos.

• ¡Que Dios misericordioso me preserve de una Iglesia cristiana en la que todos son santos! Quiero estar y permanecer en la Iglesia y en el pequeño rebaño de los pusilánimes, los débiles y los enfermos, que sienten y reconocen la miseria de sus pecados, que suspiran y claman a Dios incesantemente pidiendo consuelo y ayuda, que creen en el perdón de los pecados.

• It is often said that in prosperity we have many friends, but that we are usually neglected when things go badly. I disagree. Not only do malicious people flock about us in order to witness our ruin, but other unfortunates as well, who have been kept away by our happiness, and now feel close to us on account of our troubles.

• You panic button collector. You clock of beautiful ticks. You run out the door if you need to. You flock to the front row of your own class. You feather everything until you know you can always, always shake like a leaf on my family tree and know you belong here. You belong here and everything you feel is okay. Everything you feel is okay.

• When winter stern, his gloomy front uprears,
  A sable void the barren earth appears;
  The meads no more their former verdure boast,
  Fast-bound their streams, and all their beauty lost;
  The herds, the flocks, in icy garments mourn, and wildly murmur for the Spring's return;
  From snow-topp'd hills the whirlwinds keenly blow,
  Howl through the woods, and pierce the vales below,
  Through the sharp air a flaky torrent flies,
  Mocks the slow sight, and hides the gloomy skies.

• Voltaire señaló que es posible matar a un rebaño de ovejas por brujería si se les da mucho arsénico al mismo tiempo. Las ovejas, en esta figura, bien podrían representar a los complacientes apologistas del capitalismo; la penetrante perspicacia de Marx y su amargo odio a la opresión suministran el arsénico, mientras que la teoría del trabajo del valor proporciona los conjuros.

• October's bellowing anger breakes and cleavesThe bronzed battalions of the stricken woodIn whose lament I hear a voice that grievesFor battle's fruitless harvest, and the feudOf outrage men. Their lives are like the leavesScattered in flocks of ruin, tossed and blownAlong the westering furnace flaring red.O martyred youth and manhood overthrown,The burden of your wrongs is on my head.

• Persecution has come upon us, right honorable brethren, and persecution in the severest form. Shepherds are persecuted that their flocks may be scattered. And the worst of all is that those who are being treated ill cannot accept their sufferings in proof of their testimony, nor can the people reverence the athletes as in the army of martyrs, because the name of Christians is applied to the persecutors. The one charge which is now sure to secure severe punishment is the careful keeping of the traditions of the Fathers.

• The holy heaven yearns to wound the earth, and yearning layeth hold on the earth to join in wedlock; the rain, fallen from the amorous heaven, impregnates the earth, and it bringeth forth for mankind the food of flocks and herds and Demeter's gifts; and from that moist marriage-rite the woods put on their bloom.
