• The greatest blunders, like the thickest ropes, are often compounded of a multitude of strands. Take the rope apart, separate it into the small threads that compose it, and you can break them one by one. You think, That is all there was! But twist them all together and you have something tremendous.

• [Sacrifice of Isaac] is a major theme of the so-called Elohist [one authorial strand in the Pentateuch]. It is marked by all of his linguistic characteristics, and so on. We cannot determine what is historical and what isn't. As literary critics, we would understand the importance of this for understanding life, destiny. But the historical question must be left with a question mark.

• Duérmete", me dice suavemente. Su mano me aparta los mechones sueltos de la frente. A diferencia de los besos y caricias escenificados hasta ahora, este gesto parece natural y reconfortante. No quiero que pare y no lo hace. Sigue acariciándome el pelo cuando me duermo.

• Her hair was a damp mass of curls at the back of her neck, and Will looked away from her before he could remember what it felt like to put his hands through that hair and feel the strands wind about his fingers. It was easier at the Institute, with Jem and the others to distract him, to remember that Tessa was not his to recall that way. Here, feeling as if he were facing the world with her by his side--feeling that she was here for him instead of, quite sensibly, for the health of her own fiance--it was nearly impossible.

• ¿De dónde viene esta pasión por el conformismo? - diversidad es la palabra. Dejad que el hombre conserve sus múltiples partes y no tendréis estados tiranos . Porque, si siguen con este asunto de la conformidad acabarán obligándome a mí, un hombre invisible, a convertirme en blanco, que no es un color sino la falta de uno. ¿Debo esforzarme por ser incoloro? Pero en serio, y sin esnobismos, piensen en lo que perdería el mundo si eso ocurriera. América está tejida con muchas hebras. Yo las reconocería y dejaría que siguiera siendo así.

  Ralph Ellison

• Her hands flew to her mouth. 'Are we even twins?' Josh rested his hand on her shoulder and brought his forehead to rest against hers, strands of their blond hair mingling. 'I will always be your brother, Sophie. I will always look after you.

• With a gentle pressure, our lips met. His hands slipped more firmly about me, and I held myself back, not afraid, but wanting to feel everything slowly as I leaned in, tasting the wine on him, feeling the warmth of his body pressing into mine, breathing in our scents that were mingling and changing with the warmth. My hands rose to find his hair, and I relaxed into him as the silky strands brushed through my fingers. I wanted more, and I leaned into him as our lips moved against each other.

• Your humor is your compass and your shield. You can hone it into a weapon or you can pull its strands out to make your very own cotton-candy blanket. You can’t exist on a diet of humor alone, but you can’t exist on a diet without it, either.

• Tu pelo", repitió Dimitri. Tenía los ojos muy abiertos, casi asombrados. "Tu pelo es precioso". No lo creía, no en su estado actual. Claro que, teniendo en cuenta que estábamos en un callejón oscuro lleno de cadáveres, las opciones eran algo limitadas. "¿Lo ves? Tú no eres uno de ellos. Los Strigoi no ven la belleza. Sólo la muerte. Encontraste algo hermoso. Una cosa que es hermosa". Vacilante, nervioso, pasó sus dedos por las hebras que yo había tocado antes. "¿Pero es suficiente?" "Por ahora sí. Le di un beso en la frente y le ayudé a levantarse. "Lo es por ahora.

• Time overlaps itself. A breath breathed from a passing breeze is not the whole wind, neither is it just the last of what has passed and the first of what will come, but is more--let me see--more like a single point plucked on a single strand of a vast spider web of winds, setting the whole scene atingle. That way; it overlaps ... as prehistoric ferns grow from bathtub planters.

• London opens to you like a novel itself. [...] It is divided into chapters, the chapters into scenes, the scenes into sentences; it opens to you like a series of rooms, door, passsage, door. Mayfair to Piccadilly to Soho to the Strand.

• I felt as if there were invisible threads connecting us - I felt the invisible strands of her hair still winding around me - and thus as she disappeared completely beyond the sea - I still felt it, felt the pain where my heart was bleeding - because the threads could not be severed.

• Yeah, I must have been really bad in a past life or something." He smiled, his eyes still in pain. Reaching up, he touched a strand of mt hair. " Don't leave, OK?" "Shhh. I'm not going anywhere." I kept stroking his forehead, trailing my fingers across it. His muscular shoulders gradually relaxed, his eyes closing again. His breathing slowed, became more regular. I could hear the TV on in the other room, the sound of voices. None of it mattered to me. I stayed there until long after Alex had fallen asleep-- gently caressing the vbrow of the boy I loved, trying to keep his pain at bay.

• Te echo de menos, Emma". No estoy seguro, pero parece que se le llenan los ojos de lágrimas. "Estuve bien durante meses sin ti", dice, las palabras en voz baja y desolada. "¿Por qué me duele ahora?" Suspiro y me paso una mano por el pelo, lo cual sé por experiencia que deja mechones que salen en numerosas direcciones, desafiantes y con aspecto de locos. Quizá me sienta exactamente como una loca. "Porque ahora tenemos la esperanza de algo más.

• I don’t think I’m making myself very clear Low,” he’d lowered his voice and the effect made goose bumps break out over my body. “I was only interested in one person at that bar last night. I only came to see one person,” he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and softly caressed my earlobe before tracing the line of my jaw. “I was there for you.
