Ten Quotes - Page 16

• Se tarda unos diez años en llegar a ser un bailarín maduro. El entrenamiento tiene dos vertientes. Está el estudio y la práctica del oficio para fortalecer la estructura muscular del cuerpo. El cuerpo se forma, se disciplina, se honra y, con el tiempo, se confía en él. El movimiento se vuelve limpio, preciso, elocuente, veraz. El movimiento nunca miente. Es un barómetro que indica el estado del tiempo del alma a todos los que pueden leerlo. Esto podría llamarse la ley de la vida del bailarín, la ley que rige sus aspectos externos

• Me acordé de una vez en que mi abuela me pidió que le explicara la televisión: las tripas, no las imágenes graciosas. Hay cosas que no se pueden enseñar en diez lecciones fáciles, ni popularizar para las masas; requieren años de sudor de cráneo. Esto sería una traición en una época en la que la ignorancia se ha impuesto y la opinión de un hombre es tan buena como la de otro. Pero ahí está. Como dice Star, el mundo es como es y no perdona la ignorancia.

• Es un hecho curioso de la evolución que seamos la única especie en la Tierra capaz de crear ciencia y filosofía. Podría haber existido fácilmente otra especie con cierto talento científico, por ejemplo el de un niño de diez años, pero no tanto como el de los humanos adultos; o una que fuera mejor que nosotros en física pero peor en biología; o una que fuera mejor que nosotros en todo. Si hubiera criaturas así a nuestro alrededor, creo que estaríamos más dispuestos a admitir que la inteligencia científica humana podría ser limitada en ciertos aspectos.

• Wherever possible, home is by far the best nest until at least eight, ten or twelve. Psychologists and psychiatrists who understand child development would prefer an even later age. In a reasonably warm home, parent-child responses, the true ABC's of sound education, are likely to be a hundred times more frequent than the average teacher-child responses in a classroom.

• It hurt the economic historians, the Marxists and the fabians, to admit that the Ten Hour Bill, the basic piece of 19th century legislation, came down from the top, out of aa nobleman's private feelings about the Gospel, or that the abolition of the slave trade was achieved, not through the operation of some "law" of profit and loss, but peurlet as the result of tyhe new humanitarianism of the Evangelicals.

• I think we should all live the moment. But you also have to think ahead. You have to think, 'Am I going to be happy with this five, ten years from now? Is it going to let me evolve and grow, or am I going to grow to one day wish I had never done it?' Sometimes you just have to think a little bit ahead.

• La vida moderna... ya no cambia siglo a siglo, sino año a año, diez veces más deprisa de lo que lo ha hecho nunca antes: las poblaciones se duplican, las civilizaciones se unifican más estrechamente con otras civilizaciones, la interdependencia económica, las cuestiones raciales y... estamos perdiendo el tiempo. Mi idea es que tenemos que ir mucho más rápido.

• I'm restless. My whole generation is restless. I'm sick of a system where the richest man gets the most beautiful girl if he wants her, where the artist without an income has to sell his talents to a button manufacturer. Even if I had no talents I'd not be content to work ten years, condemned either to celibacy or a furtive indulgence, to give some man's son an automobile.
