Tubs Quotes - Page 2

• Cuando tenía 14 años, un monitor de campamento me explicó lo que era "comer fuera" y juré que nunca me lo harían. Me parecía caníbal y antihigiénico. También recuerdo que ella afirmó -delante de toda una cabaña de chicas- haber sido "devorada" por uno de los hombres de mantenimiento en una bañera de hidromasaje. Bajo el agua caliente. O algo falla en mi memoria de esta conversación o ella encontró al hombre con más talento del planeta y toda esperanza está perdida para el resto de nosotros.

• Darwin seems to lose out with the public primarily when his supporters force him into a mano-a-mano Thunderdome death match against the Almighty. Most people seem willing to accept Darwinism as long as they don't have to believe in nothing but Darwinism. Thus, the strident tub-thumping for absolute atheism by evolutionary biologists like Richard Dawkins, whom the new issue of Discover Magazine rightly criticizes as "Darwin's Rottweiler," is self-defeating.

Me and Sam and another guy in our hall took turns reading "Paradise Lost" through the locked door. I think it made him more paranoid, though." "That's not true," he says.

"I know I said I won't leave you again, but I also know that's not enough, and that the only way you're going to trust that I won't leave is if I don't". He slid the cloth over her arms.
