• I can see her clearly, standing on the rock beside Peg Gratton, unflinching before Eaton and the rest of the race committee. I can't remember when I've been that brave, and it shames me. The truth is, I feel myself being fascinated and repelled by her; She's both a mirror of myself and a door to part of the island that i'm not. It's like when the mare goddess looked into my eye; I felt that there was a part of myself that I didn't know.

• Those horses must have been Spanish jennets, born of mares mated with a zephyr; for they went as swiftly as the wind, and the moon, which had risen at our departure to give us light, rolled through the sky like a wheel detached from its carriage.

• Cuando llega la muerte, nos quitamos la ropa y recogemos todo lo que dejamos atrás: lo oscuro, lo roto, lo tocado por la vergüenza. Cuando la Muerte nos pide cuentas, desnudos presentamos nuestras vidas en fardos. Mira cuánto pesan, le decimos, negándonos a negar lo que hemos vivido. Todo lo que es tocado por la luz ama la luz. Nosotros, los tercos como la hierba, los que nos tambaleamos ante el sabor de la savia y queremos que nos limpien el espíritu, no traicionaremos a la mala hierba, ni a la serpiente, ni a la yegua lisiada. Nunca dejaremos atrás aquello sobre lo que brilló la luz.

De las laderas de la Colina 142; de la Granja de las Yeguas; del Bois de Belleau y del pueblo de Bouresches manchados con su sangre, y no sólo arrebatados a los alemanes en pleno avance contra los franceses, sino mantenidos por mis muchachos contra los contraataques día tras día y noche tras noche. No puedo escribir sobre su espléndida valentía sin que se me salten las lágrimas.

When I first see her and her dun mare from my vantage point on the cliff road, I am struck first not by the fact that she is a girl, but by the fact that she's in the ocean. it's the dreaded second day, the day people start to die, and no one will get close to the surf. But there she is, trotting up to the knee in the water. Fearless.
