• I gazed around the room and my eyes stopped dead on a little boy standing in the corner. This was a particularly eerie doll. Life-sized and blond-haired and blue-eyed. I saw a little Nazi boy, pockets probably stuffed with scissors and retractable blades. My grandfather on my mother's side was rumored to be half Jewish, which practically makes me Jerry Seinfeld's brother, and thus wary of blond German boys with their hands out of sight.

• Si de verdad quieres espacio en el transporte público, deberías llevar algo de pornografía de los años 70 y unas tijeras de seguridad para niños, y luego recortar con delicadeza todos los ojos de las modelos glamurosas mientras silbas. De vez en cuando murmura: "¿Por qué las mujeres son más bellas cuando no tienen ojos?". Podrás estirarte, aunque esto puede tener ramificaciones como acabar en una lista de la policía o ser expulsado de la ciudad.

• I love all things, not because they are passionate or sweet-smelling but because, I don't know, because this ocean is yours, and mine: these buttons and wheels and little forgotten treasures, fans upon whose feathers love has scattered its blossoms, glasses, knives and scissors -- all bear the trace of someone's fingers on their handle or surface, the trace of a distant hand lost in the depths of forgetfulness.

  Pablo Neruda

• A lot of my songs, they're like puzzle pieces, and there's just one way to put them together. You could, if you needed to, get the scissors out and cut up things to make them work. But I don't want to do that.

• After all, wedlock is the natural state of man. A bachelor is not a complete human being. He is like the odd half of a pair of scissors, which has not yet found its fellow, and therefore is not even half so useful as they might be together.

• I like "Rock, Paper, Scissors Two-Thirds." You know. "Rock breaks scissors." "These scissors are bent. They're destroyed. I can't cut stuff. So I lose." "Scissors cuts paper." "These are strips. This is not even paper. It's gonna take me forever to put this back together." "Paper covers rock." "Rock is fine. No structural damage to rock. Rock can break through paper at any point. Just say the word. Paper sucks." There should be "Rock, Dynamite with a Cutable Wick, Scissors."

• Le lancé una bola de fuego mientras buscaba un tesoro después de acabar con una banda de orcos, jugando a piedra, papel o tijera con cada orco para determinar quién prevalecería en combate. Esto es mucho más emocionante de lo que parece. Es bastante civilizado, y un poco raro. Vas corriendo detrás de alguien por el bosque, lo alcanzas, le enseñas los dientes y te sientas a jugar un poco al roshambo.

• Algo se está desarrollando, se me está revelando. Veo que hay todo un mundo de chicas y sus acciones que desconocía y del que puedo formar parte sin ningún esfuerzo. No tengo que seguir el ritmo de nadie, correr tan rápido, apuntar tan bien, hacer ruidos explosivos, descifrar mensajes, morir en el momento justo. No tengo que pensar si hago estas cosas bien, tan bien como un chico. Sólo tengo que sentarme en el suelo y recortar sartenes del Catálogo de Eaton con unas tijeras de bordar, y decir que lo he hecho mal.

  Margaret Atwood

• One of the things that adds tension to our lives is small frustrations. Losing car keys can give you a panic attack. Not being able to find a comb when you get out of the shower, losing scissors and nail clippers, can make you fight with your roommate. The problem is that we think that these things are not supposed to happen to us. And that's what makes us tense. We think we can avoid these frustrations by making ourselves and others be more careful. I like to take the opposite tack-to assume that these things are a part of life and that they will happen no matter what.

• A beautiful eyelash is an important adjunct to the eye. The lashes may be lengthened by trimming them occasionally in childhood. Care should be taken that this trimming is done neatly and evenly, and especially that the points of the scissors do not penetrate the eye.

• Tres días después de que mi novio me dejara, descubrí un armario lleno de su ropa. Pensé en lo que había hecho en el pasado (empaquetarla y enviarla, contra reembolso: distribuirla entre mis amigas) incluso cuando ya tenía las tijeras en la mano y estaba cortando sus camisas y un par de pantalones en trocitos diminutos. Cuando ya no quedaba nada de su fantasma, salvo un gran montón de tela, decidí aprender a acolchar.
