• Bueno, Lord Debonair y Lady Letal, si nos conceden un minuto de su tiempo, tenemos que cazar a un psicópata. (Allen) (Jess miró a Allen por encima del hombro, pero antes de que pudiera hacer ningún comentario, Syra disparó otro rayo con su ballesta. Allen salió volando y aterrizó de espaldas en la nieve. Syra se acercó a él y lo miró fijamente). No me gustan los escuderos y detesto los ritos de sangre. Así que ahórrate algo de dolor y no vuelvas a dirigirme la palabra. (Syra)

• Realmente odio a Squires. (Syra) (Saca otra saeta plana, la carga y dispara a Otto. El Escudero, que se movía tan rápido que apenas se le veía, se dio la vuelta y lo cogió sin inmutarse. Se llevó la saeta a la nariz y la aspiró con cariño). Mmm. Rosa. Mi favorita. (Otto) Quizás deberíamos dejaros solos. (Sí, esto me recuerda un poco a los ritos de apareamiento de los malos y los hoscos.

• For instance, if you come at four in the afternoon, I'll begin to be happy by three. The closer it gets to four, the happier I'll feel.

• Es un hombre muy agradable y todo eso, fácil de llevar, divertido, nunca me hace llorar. ¿Pero eso es amor? Quiero decir, ¿eso es todo?

• The most important truths always appear first as blasphemies or obscenities. That's why every great innovator is persecuted. And the sacraments look obscene, too, to an outsider. The eucharist is just sublimated cannibalism, to the unawakened. When the Pope kisses the feet of the laity, he looks like an old toe-queen to some people. The rites of Pan look like a suburban orgy.

• Si tu Biblia te dice que los homosexuales no deben casarse en tu iglesia, no les digas que no pueden casarse en el ayuntamiento. El matrimonio es un rito civil, además de un derecho civil, y no podemos permitir que el fanatismo religioso cierre la puerta de la justicia a nadie.

• I can't believe it's actually happening. This is independent adulthood, this is what it feels like. Shouldn't there be some sort of ritual? In certain remote African tribes there'd be some incredible four day rites of passage ceremony involving tattooing and potent hallucinogenic drugs extracted from tree-frogs, and village elders smearing my body with monkey blood, but here,rites of passage is all about three new pairs of pants and stuffing your duvet in a bin-liner.

• I looked at Lucas with the pang that a parent feels when he knows his child will be hurt and that it's no one's fault and that to try to preempt the rites of passage is an act of contempt for the child's courage.

• Living men are bound by time... Thus, their lives have an urgency. This gives them ambition. Makes them choose those things that are most important, cling more tightly to that which they hold dear. Their lives have seasons, and rites of passage, and consequences. And ultimately, an end. But what of a life with no urgency? What then of ambition? What then of love?

  Seth Grahame-Smith

• Family members have a personal stake in honoring and mourning their dead and objecting to unwarranted public exploitation that, by intruding upon their own grief, tends to degrade the rites and respect they seek to accord to the deceased person who was once their own.

• The holy heaven yearns to wound the earth, and yearning layeth hold on the earth to join in wedlock; the rain, fallen from the amorous heaven, impregnates the earth, and it bringeth forth for mankind the food of flocks and herds and Demeter's gifts; and from that moist marriage-rite the woods put on their bloom.

• There are many reasons why the general public doesn't really understand our monetary system. In the first place, money is something that people tend to get emotional about. After all, money involves, and always has involved, something closely akin to faith-which probably explains why in many past societies the money system has been in the hands of a priesthood, the subject of magical rites, and the ceremonial services of the tribe's medicine man.

• When it can be proved that the observance of Christmas, Whitsuntide, and other Popish festivals was ever instituted by a divine statute, we also will attend to them, but not till then. It is as much our duty to reject the traditions of men, as to observe the ordinances of the Lord. We ask concerning every rite and rubric, "Is this a law of the God of Jacob?" and if it be not clearly so, it is of no authority with us, who walk in Christian liberty.

• Ni aparté a Adán de su bella esposa, ni a Eva le negué los misteriosos ritos del amor conyugal: Lo que los hipócritas austeramente hablan de pureza y lugar e inocencia, difamando como impuro lo que Dios declara puro, y ordena a algunos, deja libre a todos.
