• En la medida en que nos hiperseparamos de la naturaleza y la reducimos conceptualmente para justificar la dominación, no sólo perdemos la capacidad de empatizar y de ver la esfera no humana en términos éticos, sino que también adquirimos un falso sentido de nuestro propio carácter y ubicación que incluye una ilusoria sensación de autonomía. La incapacidad de ver el ámbito no humano en los términos más ricos propios de la ética autoriza relaciones supuestamente "puramente instrumentales" que distorsionan nuestras percepciones y encuadres, empobrecen nuestras relaciones y nos hacen insensibles a las dependencias e interconexiones

• Researchers have known for some time now that the cornerstone of all degenerative conditions, including brain disorders, is inflammation. But what they didn’t have documented until now are the instigators of that inflammation—the first missteps that prompt this deadly reaction. And what they are finding is that gluten, and a high-carbohydrate diet for that matter, are among the most prominent stimulators of inflammatory pathways that reach the brain.

• Con el debido respeto a Mick Jagger, que es uno de mis ídolos, creo que es un error dar saltos y cantar a los 53 años. Cuando empecé, no había ninguna mujer a la que admirara. Era Mick. Nunca vi a nadie subir a un escenario y tener esa actitud irónica. Todo era directo, incluidos los Beatles. Me encanta su actitud, las manos en las caderas y los labios fuera.

• If we maintain the open-mindedness of children, we challenge fixed ideas and established structures, including our own. We listen to people in other denominations and religions. We don't find demons in those with whom we disagree. We don't cozy up to people who mouth our jargon. If we are open, we rarely resort to either-or: either creation or evolution, liberty or law, sacred or secular, Beethoven or Madonna. We focus on both-and, fully aware that God's truth cannot be imprisoned in a small definition.

• You see, gentlemen, reason is an excellent thing, there’s no disputing that, but reason is nothing but reason and satisfies only the rational side of man’s nature, while will is a manifestation of the whole life, that is, of the whole human life including reason and all the impulses. And although our life, in this manifestation of it, is often worthless, yet it is life and not simply extracting square roots.

• Cuando y dondequiera que los hombres se han dedicado a la matanza sin sentido de animales (incluidos otros hombres), a menudo han intentado justificar sus actos atribuyendo las cualidades más viciosas o repugnantes a aquellos a los que querían destruir; y cuanto menos razones hay para la matanza, mayor es la campaña de vilipendio.

• Vivimos en una época en la que el adversario insiste por doquier en la filosofía de la gratificación instantánea. Parece que exigimos que todo sea instantáneo, incluidas las soluciones instantáneas a nuestros problemas. Estaba previsto que la vida fuera un desafío.
