Muscles Quotes - Page 25

• This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle - broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would ... ... but I'm a man of thirty - of twenty again. The rain on my chest is a baptism - I'm born again.

  Frank Miller

• Funny thing, your brain, how it always functions on one level or another. How, even stuck in some sort of subconcious limbo, it works your lungs, your muscle twitches, your heart, in fact, in symphony with your heart, allowing it to feel love. Pain. Jealousy. Guilt. I wonder if it’s the same for people, lost in comas. Is there really such a thing

• ...men, groping in the Arctic darkness, had found a yellow metal, and because steamship and transportation companies were booming the find, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted dogs, and the dogs they wanted were heavy dogs, with strong muscles by which to toil, and furry coats to protect them from the frost.

• Se hizo más rápido de movimientos que los demás perros, más veloz de pies, más astuto, más letal, más ágil, más delgado, con músculos y tendones férreos, más resistente, más cruel, más feroz y más inteligente. Tuvo que convertirse en todas estas cosas, de lo contrario no habría resistido ni sobrevivido al entorno hostil en el que se encontraba.

• Se me ocurre que la peculiaridad de la mayoría de las cosas que consideramos frágiles es lo resistentes que son en realidad. Cuando éramos niños, hacíamos trucos con los huevos para demostrar que, en realidad, eran pequeñas salas de mármol que soportaban cargas; mientras que el batir de las alas de una mariposa en el lugar adecuado, nos dicen, puede crear un huracán a través de un océano. Los corazones pueden romperse, pero los corazones son los músculos más duros, capaces de bombear durante toda una vida, setenta veces por minuto, y apenas flaquear por el camino. Incluso los sueños, las cosas más delicadas e intangibles, pueden resultar extraordinariamente difíciles de matar.

• He looked back at her, and when she saw the look on his face, she saw his eyes at Renwick’s, when he had watched the Portal that separated him from his home shatter into a thousand irretrievable pieces. He held her gaze for a split second, then looked away from her, the muscles in his throat working.

• Su visión, por los barrotes que pasan constantemente, se ha cansado tanto que no puede retener nada más. Le parece que hay mil barrotes, y detrás de los barrotes, ningún mundo. Mientras camina en círculos estrechos, una y otra vez, el movimiento de sus poderosas y suaves zancadas es como una danza ritual alrededor de un centro en el que una poderosa voluntad permanece paralizada. Sólo a veces, el telón de las pupilas se levanta, silenciosamente. Una imagen entra, se precipita a través de los músculos tensos y detenidos, se hunde en el corazón y desaparece.

• I cannot draw a human figure if I don't know the order of his bones, muscles or tendons. Same is that I cannot draw a human face if I don't know what's going on his mind and heart. In order to paint life one must understand not only anatomy, but what people feel and think about the world they live in. The painter who knows his own craft and nothing else will turn out to be a very superficial artist.

• Ejercite el músculo de la escritura todos los días, aunque sólo sea una carta, unas notas, una lista de títulos, un esbozo de personaje, una entrada en el diario. Los escritores son como bailarines, como atletas. Sin ese ejercicio, los músculos se agarrotan.

• Ahora que estoy solo, no tengo que ocultarlo; ya no tengo que esconder nada. Puedo soltar la cara porque nadie puede verme; porque hay veintiún mil pies entre ellos y yo... No, no tengo que apretar los dientes ni tensar los músculos de la mandíbula.

• Loneliness is a drug, a narcotic; it grows through veins, through nerves and muscles; it assumes some right of possession over your body and mind; it feeds itself, and creates its own requirement. Loneliness and solitude are walls.

• Me gusta mi cuerpo cuando está con tu cuerpo. Es una cosa tan nueva. Me gusta sentir la columna vertebral de su cuerpo y sus huesos, y el temblor -firm-smooth ness y que una y otra vez y otra vez beso, me gusta besar esto y que de ti, me gusta, acariciando lentamente el, pelusa chocante de su piel eléctrica, y lo que-es-que viene sobre la carne de separación ... Y los ojos grandes miga de amor, y, posiblemente, me gusta la emoción de debajo de mí que tan bastante nuevo.

• Un moretón, azul en el músculo, te clavas en mí. Como el hueso abraza el dolor a casa, así me vejo para amarte, tu cuerpo la forma de retornos, tu pelo un torso de luz, tu calor debo tener, tu abertura comería, cada momento de esa fruta de aleta blanda, fuente invertida en la que no me veo.

• But don't forget who you really are. And I'm not talking about your so-called real name. All names are made up by someone else, even the one your parents gave you. You know who you really are. When you're alone at night, looking up at the stars, or maybe lying in your bed in total darkness, you know that nameless person inside you...Your muscles will toughen. So will your heart and soul. That's necessary for survival. But don't lose touch with that person deep inside you, or else you won't really have survived at all.

• This wasn't the way I had imagined my adventures, but reality ignored my wishes from the get-go, giving me a body best suited for stacking books in the library, injecting so much fear into my veins that I could only cower in the stairwell when the violence came. Maybe someday my arms and legs would thicken with muscle and the fear would drain away like dirty bathwater. I wish I believed these things would happen, but I didn't.

• When we relate to our bodies as having soul, we attend to their beauty, their poetry and their expressiveness. Our very habit of treating the body as a machine, whose muscles are like pulleys and its organs engines, forces its poetry underground, so that we experience the body as an instrument and see its poetics only in illness.
