• Wave after wave has brought to our shores beautiful and mysterious treasures from unknown worlds: figurines, animals, fetishes, masks, ceremonial or useful objects. They are called Primitive for want of a better name...What could never have been written is there, all the dreams and anguishes of man. The hunger for food and sex and security, the terrors of night and death, the thirst for life and the hope for survival.

  Dominique de Menil

• Saying Good-bye to the God of Disease (2) Thousands of willow branches in a spring wind. Six hundred million of China, land of the gods, and exemplary like the emperors Shun and Yao. A scarlet rain of peach blossoms turned into waves and emerald mountains into bridges. Summits touch the sky. We dig with silver shovels and iron arms shake the earth and the Three Rivers. God of plagues, where are you going? We burn paper boats and bright candles to light his way to heaven.

• Movement is my medium and my metaphor. I know that if a wave of energy is allowed to complete itself, it yields a whole new wave, and in fact that is all I really know. Riding these waves means joining the cosmic dance that, as Dante says, 'moves the sun and the other stars.'

• Change is like to surfing. You can't just paddle into life, stand still and expect to stay on top of your board. The waves of change will knock you off and drag you under.

• El calor es abrasador y soberbio. Los prados que rodean la ciudad están blanqueados de rubio. Los lejanos eucaliptos de corteza anillada, kilómetro tras kilómetro, se retuercen bajo las olas de calor y parecen derretirse como las cerdas de un cepillo para el pelo. Las colinas se vuelven de un azul empolvado y borroso. En los extremos de las calles y carreteras aparecen espejismos que parecen charcos de mica y bajíos de agua cristalina. Puntualmente a las once de cada ardiente mañana, las cigarras comienzan a taladrar el aire, a taladrarse a sí mismas también, incesante e implacablemente, hasta morir en un corto día tras siete largos años bajo tierra.

  Hal Porter

• There is a scene in the movie where Astrid and Hiccup fly on Toothless's back toward the island of Berk. The animation is intensely real, from the waves on the sea to wisps of wind blowing in the characters' hair. The feeling I get watching that scene is why I fly - just for that feeling.
