• High Frontier places a bullet-proof vest on our bare chest. High Frontier is as non-aggressive as a bullet-proof vest. There is no way to kill anyone with High Frontier - all that High Frontier can do is to keep others from killing us.

• The quotes are often poignant or funny (one man before the firing squad requests a bulletproof vest) and often don't register as much more than interesting historical documents from centuries past. But read in aggregate, all that pain piles up. Essentially, Elder has amassed a collection of what people say when they know they are going to die, the final product of what could be seen as psychological torture.

• Can anybody tell me why reporters, in making mention of lady speakers, always consider it to be necessary to report, fully and firstly, the dresses worn by them? When John Jones or Senator Rouser frees his mind in public, we are left in painful ignorance of the color and fit of his pants, coat, necktie and vest - and worse still, the shape of his boots. This seems to me a great omission.

• Yes, I actually have a portable fly-tying kit in my vest. I spent hours putting it all together, with a special emphasis on midge materials as well as enough fur and feathers to whip out a half dozen of virtually every conceivable dry pattern nature can throw at me. I have used it once, in 1993.

• The first thing I bought that was really stylish was in 1969 when I was eleven. I saved up for a black, grey and white tie-dye grandad vest. It was too big - they weren't catering for kids my age - and hung off me, but I loved it.

• Hay un dicho que dice que ningún hombre ha probado todo el sabor de la vida hasta que ha conocido la pobreza, el amor y la guerra. La justeza de esta reflexión la recomienda al amante de la filosofía condensada. Las tres condiciones abarcan casi todo lo que hay en la vida que vale la pena conocer. Un pensador superficial podría considerar que la riqueza debería añadirse a la lista. Pero no es así. Cuando un hombre pobre encuentra un cuarto de dólar escondido desde hace mucho tiempo que se ha deslizado a través de una rasgadura en el forro de su chaleco, hace sonar el placer de la vida con una caída en picado más profunda que la que cualquier millonario puede aspirar a lanzar.

• Now, I’m not saying that we don’t need rules in society. But the question of who makes the rules and on what basis becomes supremely important. Will the rule-making flow from the matrix of voluntary exchange based on the ethic of serving others through private enterprise? Or will the rules be made and enforced by people wearing guns and bulletproof vests with a license to shock or kill based on minor annoyances?

• While I was the mayor of Bogotá, I received occasional death threats. Therefore, I had to use a bullet-proof vest. I made a hole right where my heart is. The hole was in the shape of a heart. I believe this kind of gesture, gave me indeed more protection.

• The bulletproof vest--'bullet resistant,' technically--is made of two double panels of a synthetic material called Kevlar, inside a cloth carrier that holds it around your torso like a lead X-ray smock. One cop wrote phrases from the Bible on his, 'Yea, though I walk in the valley of the Shadow of Death...' Other cops wrote their blood type.

• To vest a few fallible men — prosecutors, judges, jurors — with vast powers of literary or artistic censorship, to convert them into what J. S. Mill called a "moral police," is to make them despotic arbiters of literary products. If one day they ban mediocre books as obscene, another day they may do likewise to a work of genius.

  Yes I can

• Pero la persona que salió por la puerta principal era alta y delgada, con el pelo corto y oscuro de punta. Llevaba un chaleco de malla dorada y unos pantalones de pijama de seda. Miró a Clary con leve interés, mientras daba suaves caladas a una pipa fantásticamente grande. Aunque no se parecía en nada a un vikingo, le resultó instantánea y totalmente familiar. Magnus Bane
