De "Thinks..." (David Lodge)

"I might subonsciously censor my thoughts for the typist. (...)

The decision to record one's thoughts inevitably determines or at least affects the thoughts one has. (...)

Qualia... the specific quality of our subjective experiences of the world. Like the smell of coffee, or the taste of pineapple. They're unmistakable, but very difficult to describe. (...)

Whose body was a testoterone power station constantly on the edge of melt-down... and his mind... a pornographic theatre that never closed. "


Schmedling

"Debido a nuestra resistencia al cambio, sólo nos atrevemos a cuestionar nuestra manera de entender la vida cuando llegamos a una saturación de malestar. El sufrimiento es la forma más común de aprendizaje entre los seres humanos".

Henry Porter

"Being brushed by the tentacles of mildly stinging jellyfish"

Azar

"En la lengua hebraica no existe la palabra AZAR
Cada cosa que te ocurre te ocurre porque tiene un sentido".


Better alone

"I've gone out with some of those guys- the ones who are short, fat, and ugly- and it doesn't make any difference. They're just as unappreciative and self-centered as the good-looking ones. (...)

Why terrific women are often alone, and not happy about it, but not exactly desperate about it either. (...)

Better alone than badly accompanied (...) and frankly, couldn't have cared less. (...)

Love them for their beauty and hate them for everything else."

Life

"Life is all about making choices"

The trickiest number: 3

"There it is. Sitting on the table like a puddle of vomit. (...)
Of all the fantasies, it's the only one that exceeds all expectations.(...)
It's a sexual variant as opposed to sexually deviant (...)
A 'ménage a trois' involves that trickiest of all relationships members: Three. (...)
No matter how sophisticated you think you are. Can you really handle it?
Women phisically represent more sensuality and more beauty. So it's easier for a man to fantasize about two women together."




Saben...

"Nuestros críos saben hoy menos que nunca, 
y lo que es peor, nunca se han sentido menos cómodos en su ignorancia. 
¿Cuánto tiempo puede aguantar nuestro sistema 
este bienestar inmediatista, pero con escasa proyección de futuro?"


Whatever a man's...

"Whatever a man's social origin, once he has been elected he is looked upon as an equal by his fellow members"

Hello Love...

I noticed a letter that sat on your desk. It said:
"Hello, love. I love you so, love. Meet me at midnight."
And no, it wasn't my writing ,I'd better go soon.
It wasn't my writing
So forgive me love If I cry in your shower
So forgive me love for the salt in your bed
So forgive me love If I cry all afternoon...
(Alanis M. Your house)
