• It is the swimmer who first leaps into the frozen stream who is cut sharpest by the ice; those who follow him find it broken, and the last find it gone. It is the men or women who first tread down the path which the bulk of humanity will ultimately follow, who must find themselves at last in solitudes where the silence is deadly.

• it is only by expressing all that is inside that purer and purer streams come. ... Pour out the dull things on paper too-you can tear them up afterward-for only then do the bright ones come.

• It was a feature peculiar to the colonial wars of North America, that the toils and dangers of the wilderness were to be encountered, before the adverse hosts could meet. A wide, and, apparently, an impervious boundary of forests, severed the possessions of the hostile provinces of France and England. The hardy colonist, and the trained European who fought at his side, frequently expended months in struggling against the rapids of the streams, or in effecting the rugged passes of the mountains, in quest of an opportunity to exhibit their courage in a more martial conflict.

• The only men who can turn my blood stream into a condition resembling heavy surf are good-looking heels with characters as intricately unpleasant as the sewers of Paris. With decent and honorable gents, I come all over Platonic. Was ever a woman so perverse and wrongheaded?

• We humans are herd animals of the monkey tribe, not natural individuals as lions are. Our individuality is partial and restless; the stream of consciousness that we call 'I' is made of shifting elements that flow from our group and back to our group again. Always we seek to be ourselves and the herd together, not One against the herd.

• The body remembers, the bones remember, the joints remember, even the little finger remembers. Memory is lodged in pictures and feelings in the cells themselves. Like a sponge filled with water, anywhere the flesh is pressed, wrung, even touched lightly, a memory may flow out in a stream.

• There is so much information that our ability to focus on any piece of it is interrupted by other information, so that we bathe in information but hardly absorb or analyse it. Data are interrupted by other data before we've thought about the first round, and contemplating three streams of data at once may be a way to think about none of them.

• ¿Qué eres, vida, que debemos cortejar tu estancia?
  Un aliento que un solo suspiro debe soplar.
  Una flor efímera, que con el día debe marchitarse.
  Un vapor fugaz y una sombra vacía.
  Una corriente que silenciosa pero velozmente se desliza
  al encuentro de las inmensas mareas de la eternidad.
  ¿Un ser perdido por el dolor o la alegría?
  Una mosca puede matarlo, o un gusano destruirlo.
  Deteriorado por el trabajo, y por la facilidad deshecho,
  Comenzó llorando y terminó gimiendo.

  Alexander Brome

• ¡Qué dulces las armonías de la tarde!
  El mirlo canta a lo largo de la brisa soleada
  Su antigua canción de hojas, y la bendición del verano;
  El rico aliento de los campos de heno fluye a través del susurro de los árboles;
  Y los pájaros de la mañana recortan sus alas bulliciosas,
  y escuchan con cariño... mientras canta el mirlo.

• Sandy was particularly destructive because it was prevented from moving back out to sea by a "blocking pattern" associated with the jet stream. There's debate about this, but one recent study suggested that melting sea ice in the Arctic may lead to such blocking.

• La tragedia del periodismo reside en su impermanencia; la misma actualidad que le da brillo lo condena a una muerte prematura. Con demasiada frecuencia se trata de lanzar globos brillantes al paso del huracán, de arrojar pétalos de valor incalculable sobre la superficie caudalosa de un arroyo.

• And when, in the evening of life, the golden clouds rest sweetly and invitingly upon the golden mountains, and the light of heaven streams down through the gathering mists of death, I wish you a peaceful and abundant entrance into that world of blessedness, where the great riddle of life will be unfolded to you in the quick consciousness of a soul redeemed and purified.

• las calabazas -¡ay! - están llegando en un flujo constante a la puerta de atrás. ... Curiosamente, la mayoría de los que las cultivan en Fairacre dicen, al entregarlas: "¡Qué curioso! A mí tampoco me gustan. De hecho, no le gustan a nadie de la familia". Pero aun así las plantan. Debe ser la fascinación de ver un rendimiento tan maravilloso por una pequeña semilla, lo que mantiene a los cultivadores de médula en su dudosa tarea.

• All the earth is seamed with roads, and all the sea is furrowed with the tracks of ships, and over all the roads and all the waters a continuous stream of people passes up and down - traveling, as they say, for their pleasure. What is it, I wonder, that they go out to see?
