“A mental image came to her of a good submarine--painted white, perhaps, with a crew that eschewed swearing (at sea) and hard liquor (when ashore), engaged in heroic acts, never used, as most submarines were, to intimidate others. But there were no such submarines--not in the world we knew. There were only dark prowlers bristling with weapons. One nuclear submarine, armed with its Trident missiles, could destroy our planet as we knew it. One submarine, she thought; one. In such a world, what chance did a good submarine have?”

“Hell, if someome wrote a book about you, well, it'd sell a million copies the day it was released. And if someone else was clever enough to write a parody - you know, to privide som comic relief during these extremely difficult economic times - that would probably be an even bigger seller, or at least it shoud be. So, just come clean with me, Ed. Your secret's safe with me, and whoever reads my internet blog. You...are...a...vampire!”

“In un mondo sempre più fitto di nessi comunicativi e di processi di globalizzazione non vi sono molte proposte alternative: o si continua a credere pervicacemente nelle proprie forme identitarie (costi quel che costi) o si procede quanto meno ad alleggerirle, così da renderle più disponibili alla comunicazione e agli scambi, alle intese e ai suggerimenti, alle ibridazioni e ai mescolamenti. Non è detto che tale maggiore disponibilità sia la via che ci salva; ma è abbastanza certo che l'atteggiamento opposto (l'ossessione della purezza e dell'identità) è quello che ha prodotto, qui come altrove, le maggiori rovine.”
