• Never allow anything to divert you from your insight into Jesus Christ. It is the true test of whether you are spiritual or not. To be unspiritual means that other things have a growing fascination for you. Since mine eyes have looked on Jesus, I’ve lost sight of all beside, So enchained my spirit’s vision, Gazing on the Crucified.

  Oswald Chambers

• ¿La mejor esperanza para qué, Catman? ¿La muerte? ¿La bancarrota? Sabes, mi vida estaba yendo... bueno, bastante mal, para ser honesto, pero al menos nadie estaba tratando de matarme y nadie estaba muriendo a mi alrededor. Desde que te conocí, mi vida ha tomado el camino a Shitsville, sin rampa de salida a la vista. (Susan)

• Quería preguntarle qué sonido hacía un corazón cuando se rompía de placer, cuando la sola visión de alguien te llenaba como nunca podrían hacerlo la comida, la sangre y el aire, cuando sentías como si hubieras nacido para un solo momento y éste, por la razón que fuera, lo era.

  Dennis Lehane

• Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope’s ear, Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear. So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows. The measure done, I’ll watch her place of stand, And, touching hers, make blessèd my rude hand. Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.

  William Shakespeare

• Me he quedado estos años en mi cuchitril gracias a ti. He aprendido idiomas gracias a ti. He fortalecido mi cuerpo porque pensé que un cuerpo fuerte podría complacerte. He vivido mi vida con la única oración de que algún amanecer repentino pudieras mirar en mi dirección. No he conocido un momento en años en el que tu mirada no hiciera que mi corazón chocara contra mi caja torácica. No he conocido una noche en la que tu rostro no me acompañara a dormir. No ha habido una mañana en la que no revolotearas detrás de mis párpados al despertar.

• One glance and I knew exactly who and what he was. The classic alpha male, the kind who had spurred evolution forward about five million years ago by nailing every female in sight. They charmed, seduced, and behaved like bastards, and yet women were biologically incapable of resisting their magic DNA.

• Incluso con el espíritu quebrantado como está, nadie puede sentir más profundamente que él las bellezas de la naturaleza. El cielo estrellado, el mar y todas las vistas que ofrecen estas maravillosas regiones, parecen tener todavía el poder de elevar su alma de la tierra. Tal hombre tiene una doble existencia: puede sufrir la miseria, y ser abrumado por las decepciones; sin embargo, cuando se haya retirado a sí mismo, será como un espíritu celestial que tiene un halo a su alrededor, dentro de cuyo círculo no se aventura ninguna pena o locura.

• It was one of those strange moments that came to him rarely, but never left. A moment that stamped itself on heart and brain, instantly recallable in every detail, for all of his life. There was no telling what made these moments different from any other, though he knew them when they came. He had seen sights more gruesome and more beautiful by far, and been left with no more than a fleeting muddle of their memory. But these-- the still moments, as he called them to himself-- they came with no warning, to print a random image of the most common things inside his brain, indelible.

• I leave you free to imagine any dialogue you please. Choose whatever may charm you. Have it, if you like, that they hear the voice of the blood, or that they fall in love at first sight... Conceive the wildest improbabilities. Have it that the depths of their beings are thrilled at accosting each other in slang. Tangle them suddenly in a swift embrace or a brotherly kiss. Do whatever you like.

• You may remember the paradox of time we mentioned earlier: Whatever you do takes time, and yet it is always now. So while your inner purpose is to negate time, your outer purpose necessarily involves future and so could not exist without time. But it is always secondary. Whenever you become anxious or stressed, outer purpose has taken over, and you lost sight of your inner purpose. You have forgotten that your state of consciousness is primary, all else secondary.

  Eckhart Tolle
