• A veces, entre nuestros intelectuales más sofisticados y autoproclamados -y digo autoproclamados intencionadamente; no estoy seguro de que el verdadero intelectual piense así-, algunos se preocupan más por la apariencia que por los logros. Les preocupa más el estilo que la argamasa, el ladrillo y el hormigón. Les preocupan más las trivialidades y lo superficial que las cosas que realmente han construido América.

  Lyndon B. Johnson

• There are ancient and modern poems which breathe, in their entirety and in every detail, the divine breath of irony. In such poemsthere lives a real transcendental buffoonery. Their interior is permeated by the mood which surveys everything and rises infinitely above everything limited, even above the poet's own art, virtue, and genius; and their exterior form by the histrionic style of an ordinary good Italian buffo.

  Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

• The love of solitude, when cultivated in the morn of life, elevates the mind to a noble independence, but to acquire the advantages which solitude is capable of affording, the mind must not be impelled to it by melancholy and discontent, but by a real distaste to the idle pleasures of the world, a rational contempt for the deceitful joys of life, and just apprehensions of being corrupted and seduced by its insinuating and destructive gayeties.

  Johann Georg Ritter von Zimmermann

  Joy, Solitude, Independence

• There is always a certain glamour about the idea of a nation rising up to crush an evil simply because it is wrong. Unfortunately, this can seldom be realized in real life; for the very existence of the evil usually argues a moral weakness in the very place where extraordinary moral strength is called for.

• La cuestión de una paz mundial real y duradera concierne a los seres humanos, por lo que los sentimientos humanos básicos también están en sus raíces. A través de la paz interior puede alcanzarse una auténtica paz mundial. En esto, la importancia de la responsabilidad individual es bastante clara; primero hay que crear una atmósfera de paz dentro de nosotros mismos, y luego ampliarla gradualmente para incluir a nuestras familias, nuestras comunidades y, en última instancia, a todo el planeta.

• If it is asserted that civilization is a real advance in the condition of man,--and I think that it is, though only the wise improve their advantages,--it must be shown that it has produced better dwellings without making them more costly; and the cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.

• Falling in love is very real, but I used to shake my head when people talked about soul mates, poor deluded individuals grasping at some supernatural ideal not intended for mortals but sounded pretty in a poetry book.
