“Εσφαλμένη κρίση! Οι ταπεινώσεις για τα παλιά μας λάθη ήταν έργο της περηφάνειας. Ο φόβος για το μέλλον ήταν κι αυτός αλαζονεία. Πίσω, ολέθρια περηφάνεια της νεότητας! Είναι τόσο όμορφο να ξαναβρίσκεις την γαλήνη της ψυχής σου, όταν δεν πλάθεις πια ένα Θεό βίας αλλά αγάπης.”

“Hero was touched by the small gesture of courtesy, at first only minutely, and then, for no reason at all, deeply and wholly. It was possible she was about to cry, here in this kitchen, for the first time since she'd arrived in America. To prevent that from happening, she stuffed her mouth with an entire quarter of the pizza, then huffed and gasped as the molten bite burned her tongue.”

“Do you know the difference between pain and suffering? Pain is about feeling real, appropriate, and valid hurt when something bad happens. Suffering is when you add extra dollops to that pain. You're feeling bad about feeling bad. So getting rid of suffering means you're not adding to the pain. You appropriately felt awkward and uncomfortable and regretful that that dinner party didn't go well. You appropriately feel annoyed and angry at one of your friends who is being prissy. You're just accepting of it all. And if the feeling stays, you ask, okay, why is this feeling still in me? And then, assume that there's incredible wisdom in your intuitions and just start listening to them. What is this? What is this thing in my body right now? What are you trying to teach me?”
