• ¿Sabes lo que es una perla y lo que es un ópalo? Mi alma, cuando llegaste a mí paseando por aquellas dulces tardes de verano, era hermosa, pero con la pálida belleza sin pasión de una perla. Tu amor ha pasado a través de mí y ahora siento mi mente algo así como un ópalo, es decir, llena de extraños matices y colores inciertos, de luces cálidas y sombras rápidas y de música rota.

• People look down on stuff like geography and meteorology, and not only because they're standing on one and being soaked by the other. They don't look quite like real science. But geography is only physics slowed down and with a few trees stuck on it, and meteorology is full of excitingly fashionable chaos and complexity. And summer isn't a time. It's a place as well. Summer is a moving creature and likes to go south for the winter.

• And there, row upon row, with the soft gleam of flowers opened at morning, with the light of this June sun glowing through a faint skin of dust, would stand the dandelion wine. Peer through it at the wintry day - the snow melted to grass, the trees were reinhabitated with bird, leaf, and blossoms like a continent of butterflies breathing on the wind. And peering through, color sky from iron to blue. Hold summer in your hand, pour summer in a glass, a tiny glass of course, the smallest tingling sip for children; change the season in your veins by raising glass to lip and tilting summer in

  Nada habrá por venir, y nada pasado,
  Pero un eterno ahora durará para siempre.

• Así es la vida humana. Somos soplados en el mundo; flotamos flotantemente en el aire del verano por un rato, mostrando complacientemente nuestra gracia de forma y nuestros delicados colores iridiscentes; luego nos desvanecemos con un pequeño soplo, sin dejar nada detrás más que un recuerdo - y a veces ni siquiera eso. Supongo que en esos momentos solemnes en que nos despertamos en las profundidades de la noche y reflexionamos, no hay ninguno de nosotros que no esté dispuesto a confesar que en realidad no es más que una pompa de jabón, y que no vale la pena fabricarla.

• From the moment of my birth, the angels of anxiety, worry, and death stood at my side, followed me out when I played, followed me in the sun of springtime and in the glories of summer.
