• Desde un edificio justo enfrente de mis ventanas, puedo observar la velocidad de los amaneceres y los atardeceres. Las voces de los niños que juegan, ríen, gritan y lloran en el patio suben hasta el octavo piso, donde escribo. Sus voces suenan tan inocentes desde la distancia.

• We are a nation that worships speed and power. And for good reason. Without power we would still be part of England and everybody would be out of work... Bicycles are too slow and impuissant for a nation like ours. They belong in Czechoslovakia.

• A pesar de que las velocidades de los ordenadores se miden en nanosegundos y picosegundos -una milmillonésima y una billonésima de segundo, respectivamente-, el intervalo de tiempo más pequeño conocido por el hombre es el que transcurre en Manhattan entre que el semáforo se pone en verde y el taxista que viene detrás toca el claxon.

• Stopgaps do belong to the internal economy of the form, since the Whole requires them, even if only in a subordinate position ... The stopgap Luigi Paryson's 'zeppa' accepts its own banality, because without the speed that the banal allows up, it would slow up a passage that is crucial for the outcome of the work and its interpretation.

• FM signals and those of broadcast television...travel out to space at the speed of light. Any eavesdropping alien civilization will know all about our TV programs (probably a bad thing), will hear all our FM music (probably a good thing), and know nothing of the politics of AM talk-show hosts (probably a safe thing).

Se trata de crear una visión, capacitar e inspirar a las personas para que quieran alcanzarla y permitirles hacerlo con energía y rapidez mediante una estrategia eficaz. En su sentido más básico, el liderazgo consiste en movilizar a un grupo de personas para que se lancen hacia un futuro mejor.

• On this tenth day of June, nineteen hundred and forty, the hand that held the dagger has struck it into the back of its neighbor.... In our unity, in our American unity we will pursue two obvious and simultaneous courses; we will extend to the opponents of force the material resources of this nation, and at the same time we will harness and speed up the use of those resources in order that we ourselves in the Americas may have equipment and training equal to the task of any emergency and every defense.

• What worries me, especially, is that public opinion over here is patting itself on the back every morning and thanking God for theAtlantic Ocean (and the Pacific Ocean). We greatly underestimate the serious implications to our own future.... Things move with such terrific speed these days, that it is really essential to us to think in broader terms and, in effect, to warn the American people that they, too, should think of possible ultimate results in Europe and the Far East.

• The whole material world. It doesn't actually exist. Matter is not material. It's made up of atoms that are moving at lightning speeds around huge empty spaces. So as you go beyond the appearance of molecules, you end up with a subatomic world, and if you go beyond that you end up with nothing. Nothing is the source of everything.

• El mal denota la falta de bien. No toda ausencia de bien es un mal, pues la ausencia puede tomarse en sentido puramente negativo o en sentido aprivativo. La mera negación no muestra el carácter del mal, pues de lo contrario lo inexistente sería malo y, además, una cosa sería mala por no poseer la bondad de otra cosa, lo que significaría que el hombre es malo por no tener la fuerza de un león o la velocidad de una cabra salvaje. Pero lo malo es la privación; en este sentido la ceguera significa la privación de la vista.
