Pierce Quotes - Page 7

• Madame V begins the lesson by reading aloud the first stanza of a famous French poem: Il pleure dans mon coeur Comme il pleut sur la ville; Quelle est cette langueur Qui penetre mon coeur? Then she looks up and without any warning she calls on me to translate it. I swallow hard, and try: "It's raining in my heart like it's raining in the city. What is this sadness that pierces my heart?" Saying these words out loud, right in front of the whole class, makes me feel like I'm not wearing any clothes.

• Leer como si tu vida dependiera de ello significaría dejar entrar en tu lectura tus creencias, el remolino de tu vida onírica, las sensaciones físicas de tu vida carnal ordinaria; y simultáneamente, permitir que lo que estás leyendo traspase las rutinas, seguras e impermeables, en las que la vida carnal ordinaria es rastreada, trazada, canalizada. Entonces, ¿qué hay de las respuestas correctas, la llamada hoja de examen de opción múltiple con el lápiz número 2 para marcar una opción y sólo una opción?

  Adrienne Rich

• Abandona tu implacable moralina, los continuos pinchazos que atraviesan la piel de tus semejantes. La distinción entre el bien y el mal es la enfermedad de la mente. Renunciad a vuestra moral y la gente recuperará el amor a sus semejantes.

• If a dream can tell the future it can also thwart that future. For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come. He is bound to no one that the world unfold just so upon its course and those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

• Futurity is impregnable to mortal ken: no prayer pierces through heaven's adamantine walls. Whether the birds fly right or left, whatever be the aspect of the stars, the book of nature is a maze, dreams are a lie, and every sign a falsehood.

• Una vez me preguntaste si te seguiría queriendo cuando tus labios estuvieran fruncidos por la edad y tus ojos apagados. Puedo asegurarte que te seguiré amando cuando sólo me queden las fuerzas (y los escasos dientes) para engullir esos labios fruncidos. Te amaré cuando tus huesos sean lo bastante afilados para atravesar mi frágil carne. Te amaré cuando la luz de mis ojos se apague para siempre y el tuyo sea el último rostro dulce que vea. Porque lo soy y siempre lo seré.

  Teresa Medeiros

• El ojo común sólo ve el exterior de las cosas, y juzga por eso, pero el ojo que ve penetra y lee el corazón y el alma, encontrando allí capacidades que el exterior no indicaba ni prometía, y que el otro tipo de ojo no podía detectar.

• Has nacido con la flecha del anhelo, mi Glynna, aunque aún no eres plenamente consciente de ello. No es una cosa feliz de poseer, porque nada en la tierra -ningún objetivo, ninguna persona por muy amada que sea- la responderá. Apunta al cielo y a los cielos y a las estrellas y cuando no puede alcanzarlos, debe retroceder para atravesar tu corazón.

• And over the pond are sailing Two swans all white as snow; Sweet voices mysteriously wailing Pierce through me as onward they go. They sail along, and a ringing Sweet melody rises on high; And when the swans begin singing, They presently must die.

• I really just drew off of where we are now, with reality TV. You can't help but see a lot of it. You choose to watch some, but with some, you just can't help but hear it and see it. It's just piercing in your brain. That piercing is what I was tapping into , with whatever they were doing to pierce into the minds of everybody. It takes a certain kind of person to shut your mind off to the consequences and just try to get results. That's what I was going for - results.

• What is important is that you should know reality. You should know exactly what is right and what is wrong. For that, as I told you, there is this great power of Kundalini within you. She's the one, she passes through all these centres, enlightens them first of all - so your awareness gets enlightened - and when she pierces through Sahasrara, she joins you to this all-pervading power, which is knowledge, which is love, which is truth.

• El objetivo de la gran estrategia debería ser descubrir y perforar el talón de Aquiles del poder bélico del gobierno contrario. La estrategia, a su vez, debería tratar de penetrar una articulación en el arnés de las fuerzas contrarias. Aplicar la propia fuerza donde el adversario es fuerte debilita a uno mismo de forma desproporcionada con respecto al efecto conseguido. Para golpear con un efecto fuerte, hay que golpear en la debilidad.

• Lo que está en juego no es sólo el conocimiento del mundo, sino nuestra supervivencia como individuos y como especie. Todas las tecnologías básicas que ha inventado el ser humano para alimentarse y protegerse dependen de un compromiso implacable con el empirismo más duro: no puedes dar por sentado que tus puntas de flecha atravesarán la piel de un bisonte o que tu balsa flotará sólo porque los presagios son propicios y te han dado garantías sobrenaturales de que así será. Hay que estar seguro.

• Anatole France frankly advised, "When a thing has been said and said well, have no scruple. Take it and copy it." Yes, indeed, but do more. Copy many well-said things. Pierce them together. Assimilate them. Make the process of reading them a way to form the mind and shape the soul. As anthologies can never be complete, we will never exhaust the ways quotations can enrich our lives.
