• ¡Me acusan de ser un asesino! ME ACUSAN de ser un maltratador!... ¡Dicen que mi idea de un día divertido es un campo oscuro y solitario y el urunj de un coche, y un palo grande y un rollo de cinta adhesiva! ¡Mi MAMÁ compra en Wal-Mart! Ahora recibe llamadas todo el tiempo; ¡está preocupada por mí! No soy el tipo emocionalmente más estable del mundo; lo admito... Tengo algunos problemas, pero Dios mío, ¡no soy un asesino!

  Al Snow

• Hace ya muchos años que los hombres recurren al bosque para obtener combustible y los materiales de las artes: el neoinglés y el neoholandés, el parisino y el celta, el granjero y Robin Hood, Goody Blake y Harry Gill; en la mayor parte del mundo, el príncipe y el campesino, el erudito y el salvaje, requieren por igual todavía unos pocos palos del bosque para calentarse y cocinar sus alimentos. Yo tampoco podría prescindir de ellos.

  Henry David Thoreau

• Leaving wasn't a personal thing where I intentionally wanted to stick it to management or anyone. This is business. I felt I should have been rewarded for helping the Indians turn around a half century of losing. It was a shame they decided to treat me that way, after all I did for them. I helped this team go from one-hundred six losses to basically one-hundred six wins and into the World Series. And what do I get for it? Nothing.

• Hay momentos en los que podemos sentir que el destino se cierra a nuestro alrededor como un puño alrededor del pomo de una puerta. Claro que podemos resistirnos. Pero un pomo que no gira, una puerta que se atasca y nunca se mueve, es una molestia para los dioses. Los dioses pueden dar una patada en la jamba. Peor aún, puede que se marchen disgustados, dejándonos colgando mudos de nuestros herméticos goznes, privados de cualquier otra oportunidad en la vida de abrirnos a un riesgo innecesario y, por tanto, al encanto.

• Reading is a stout-hearted activity, disporting courage, keenness, stick-to-it-ness. It is also, in my experience, one of the most thrilling and enduring delights of life, equal to a home run, a slam-dunk, or breaking the four-minute mile.

• It is easy to follow Christ when all things are safe. But your love to Jesus Christ would be seen more, if you must lose your lives, or deny your Jesus. It would be a trial of your love, when fire and faggot [a wooden stick] was before you, if you would rush into that, rather than fly from the truth as it is in Jesus. Though all things are calm now, the storm is gathering and by and by it will break; it is at present no bigger than a man's hand. But when it is full it will break and then you will see whether you are found Christians or not.

• Si se aplican los principios conservadores y se persevera en ellos, y se tienen dotes de liderazgo para atraer a la gente hacia la causa, se puede mover la aguja en estas cosas, rechazo la idea de que no podemos resolver los problemas, de que el bloqueo es demasiado enorme para forjar un consenso. Se requiere cierta creatividad para llegar a una victoria para todos.
