Parasites Quotes - Page 6

• Y ésta es la última lección que nos ha enseñado nuestro conocimiento del modo de transmisión del tifus: El hombre lleva en su piel un parásito, el piojo. La civilización lo libra de él. Si el hombre retrocede, si se permite parecerse a una bestia primitiva, el piojo comienza a multiplicarse de nuevo y trata al hombre como se merece, como una bestia bruta. Esta conclusión habría agradado al cálido corazón de Alfred Nobel. Mi contribución a ella me hace sentir menos indigno del honor que me ha conferido en su nombre.

• La suciedad es un atributo tan propio de los funcionarios que casi podríamos considerarlos enormes parásitos... Del mismo modo, los padres de las extrañas familias de Kafka se ceban en sus hijos, echándose sobre ellos como parásitos gigantes. No sólo se aprovechan de su fuerza, sino que roen el derecho de los hijos a existir. Los padres castigan, pero al mismo tiempo son los acusadores. El pecado del que acusan a sus hijos parece ser una especie de pecado original.

• El nacionalsocialismo es simplemente esto: una propuesta para que el pueblo alemán se deshaga de los judíos parásitos. El anfitrión gentil se atrevió a protestar contra la presencia continuada del parásito e intentó deshacerse de él.

• Ser madre te hace más consciente de lo corta que es la vida y de lo importante que es disfrutar de cada minuto, porque tienes menos tiempo para ti. Un día ya no tiene 24 horas, sólo dura 10, u ocho. Así que aprendes a deshacerte de todos los parásitos. No hablo de personas, sino de cosas que pueden ser tóxicas para la felicidad.

• A lawyer’s either a social engineer or … a parasite on society … A social engineer [is] a highly skilled, perceptive, sensitive lawyer who [understands] the Constitution of the United States and [knows] how to explore its uses in the solving of problems of local communities and in bettering conditions of the underprivileged citizens.

• Rule by the statist elite is not benign or simply a matter of who happens to be in office: it is rule by a growing army of leeches and parasites battening off the income and wealth of hard-working Americans, destroying their property, corrupting their customs and institutions, sneering at their religion.

• The parasite that causes malaria edges through the cells of the stomach wall of the mosquito and forms a cyst which grows and eventually bursts to release hundreds of sporozoites into the body cavity of the mosquito ... As far as we can tell, the parasite does not harm the mosquito ... It has always seemed to me, though, that these growing cysts ... must at least give the mosquito something corresponding to a stomach-ache.

• The instructor can scarcely give sensibility where it is essentially wanting, nor talent to the unpercipient block. But he can cultivate and direct the affections of the pupil, who puts forth, as a parasite, tendrils by which to cling, not knowing to what - to a supporter or a destroyer.

• Muchas enfermedades, como la malaria, el dengue, la meningitis -sólo algunos ejemplos-, son lo que llamamos enfermedades sensibles al clima, porque esas dimensiones climáticas para las precipitaciones, la humedad y la temperatura influirían en las epidemias, en los brotes, ya sea influyendo directamente en los parásitos o en los mosquitos que los transmiten.

• I try to make art which celebrates doubt and uncertainty. Which provokes answers but doesn't give them. Which withholds absolute meaning by incorporating parasite meanings. Which suspends meaning while perpetually dispatching you toward interpretation, urging you beyond dogmatism, beyond doctrine, beyond ideology, beyond authority.

• The total amount of suffering per year in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. During the minute that it takes me to compose this sentence, thousands of animals are being eaten alive, many others are running for their lives, whimpering with fear, others are slowly being devoured from within by rasping parasites, thousands of all species are dying of starvation, thirst, and disease. The universe that we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but pitiless indifference.

• There is an intrinsic law: thoughts don't have their own life. They are parasites; they live on your identifying with them. When you say, 'I am angry,' you are pouring life energy into anger, because you are getting identified with anger. But when you say, 'I am watching anger flashing on the screen of the mind within me,' you are not anymore giving any life, any energy to anger.

• The text moves like a small crustacean with compound eye and complex nervous system; throbbing, involuted, it becomes a parasite on a different body, animal, using ‘filiform protrusions through which it sucks the vital juices of its host.’ Parasite or creature in mutation on the shore, torrid / delirium: mordant mortality, systematic competition the narrator against the I, leaking gas, a lapse of memory against a promise, an inset in a book. A muscular, involuntary bulging in the breast, circling all its inner surface: mesoblast: visceral.

• Every building you come out of, there is a parasite there exercising his constitutional right to make money out of being a parasite, trying to take your photo. Frankly, folks, I go to work, I do my job. I really concentrate, and if you go to the cinema, pay your money and have a good time. That's the end of it, as far as I'm concerned.

• Este día, Dios indulgente
  Ha puesto en mi mano
  Una cosa maravillosa; y Dios
  Sea alabado. A Su orden,
  Buscando Sus hechos secretos
  Con lágrimas y aliento fatigoso,
  encuentro tus astutas semillas,
  Oh Muerte asesina de millones.
  Sé que esta pequeña cosa
  Una miríada de hombres salvará.
  Oh Muerte, ¿dónde está tu aguijón?
  ¿Tu victoria, oh Tumba?
  Poema que escribió tras el descubrimiento de que el parásito de la malaria era transportado por el mosquito amopheline.

• If a man is after money, he's money mad; if he keeps it, he's a capitalist; if he spends it, he's a playboy; if he doesn't get it, he's a never-do-well; if he doesn't try to get it, he lacks ambition. If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life.
