• The strange thing about the English character is that they understate everything. It's considered bad form to comment on the food, money, romance, any of those things. So you underplay it.

• Aférrate a tu sueño. No dejes que la gente te aparte de tu sueño. No dejes que la forma sea más importante que el fondo de tu corazón y tu mente. No dejes que el comercio determine lo que haces exclusivamente.

• I feel like a bit of a phony sometimes - I started acting because I didn’t know what else to do. I filled in all these university application forms and honestly didn’t want to do any of the courses.

• Surrender. That's an interesting term. We tend to see all forms of surrender as negative--war, sports, highway on-ramps. You'd never hear us describing a relationship as a type of surrender. But maybe we should. Is it wrong to cede the solo to the duet. Surrender doesn't mean you lose, only that you no longer wish to fight.

• The particular province of the shaman is the province of soul, that which feeds our embodied life, or fails to feed it. From a shamanic point of view, the relationship with animal allies, or animals that show themselves in animal forms, is a vital part of living. We're fully embodied, with full access to our natural soul energy.

• The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself. If you have a secret, you have only to whisper it to your dearest friend with the strictest injunction that it will go no further, and within half a day the story is all over town, and when you do make what would seem to be a perfectly sensible remark, you will find it reported in the most grotesque form, thus incurring no end of criticism to rebound upon you.

• El hombre "natural" siempre está ahí, bajo el cambiante hombre histórico. Le llamamos y viene, un poco adormilado, entumecido, sin su forma perdida de cazador instintivo, pero, al fin y al cabo, todavía vivo. El hombre natural es primero el hombre prehistórico, el cazador.

• Hay que desconfiar de la opinión de que estas coaliciones laxas y diversas representan una nueva forma de democracia participativa globalizada. La industria de la disidencia es en gran medida un producto de la revolución de Internet. La creación de redes baratas, sin fronteras y en tiempo real proporciona a las organizaciones no gubernamentales [ONG] de defensa economías de escala y también de alcance al vincular a grupos muy dispares con un tema común.

• I taught myself how to draw, and I soon found out it was what I really wanted to do. I didn't think I was going to create any great masterpieces like Rembrandt or Gauguin. I thought comics was a common form of art, and strictly American in my estimation, because America was the home of the common man - and show me the common man that can't do a comic. So comics is an American form of art that anyone can do with a pencil and paper.

• God extends his grace to his people (and mankind in general) when he destroys the wicked, because in destroying the wicked, he is averting their evil works that so plague God's children and mankind in general. When he maims and kills cultists and theological liberals, he prevents the spread of heretical doctrine that damns souls...God's judgment - not his favor - leads the world to righteousness. We should petition God's judgment on the wicked because judgment is a form of grace.

• We believe, and so suggested a few years ago, that the action of alcohol on these chronic alcoholics is a manifestation of an allergy; that the phenomenon of craving is limited to this class and never occurs in the average temperate drinker. These allergic types can never safely use alcohol in any form at all; and once having formed the habit and found they cannot break it, once having lost their self confidence, their reliance upon things human, their problems pile up on them and become astonishingly difficult to solve.

• Estas largas cadenas de razonamientos perfectamente simples y fáciles por medio de los cuales los geómetras acostumbran a llevar a cabo sus demostraciones más difíciles me habían llevado a imaginar que todo lo que puede caer bajo el conocimiento humano forma una secuencia similar; y que mientras evitemos aceptar como verdadero lo que no lo es, y conservemos siempre el orden correcto de deducción de una cosa de otra, no puede haber nada demasiado remoto para ser alcanzado al final, o demasiado bien escondido para ser descubierto.

• All the forces that we see in nature, such as gravitation, attraction, and repulsion, or as thought, feeling, and nervous motion - all these various forces resolve into that Prana, and the vibration of the Prana ceases. In that state it remains until the beginning of the next cycle. Prana then begins to vibrate, and that vibration acts upon the Akasha, and all these forms are thrown out in regular succession.

• Drawing is the probity of art. To draw does not mean simply to reproduce contours; drawing does not consist merely of line: drawing is also expression, the inner form, the plane, the modeling. See what remains after that.

• Because of GLHR's crusades... we're beginning to learn the awful truth about workers around the world who are slaving away their lives in sweatshops, who are denied the right to join or form a union in order to fight back and provide a better life for their families.

• Resulta irónico que el mismo año en que celebramos el 50 aniversario del descubrimiento del ADN, algunos quieran que prohibamos determinadas formas de investigación médica con ADN. Restringir la investigación médica tiene consecuencias humanas muy reales, que se miden en pérdida de vidas y tremendo sufrimiento para los pacientes y sus familias.

• Difícilmente se puede apreciar cómo el mundo académico ha pervertido sus tareas e "ideales" más elevados sin reflexionar largo y tendido sobre las implicaciones de La casa del intelecto de Jacques Barzun y su contraste hegeliano/bergsoniano entre el "intelecto" rigidificado y la "inteligencia" en constante crecimiento. Esta distinción fundamentalmente hegeliana, huelga decirlo, corta de raíz el contraste entre las formas platónica y aristotélica de la filosofía.
