“It is possible that John Major... will be able to suspend the battle for Scotland with an armistice on Unionist terms. But my guess is that he will not be able to bring about permanent political peace. To do that would require an unpredicted and irreversible shift in Scottish feeling - a shrugging off of real history and a retreat from real politics altogether... A Scotland genuinely at ease with itself would be an argumentative, grown-up Scotland with a lively parliament as well as a strong economy - a conscience and a tongue, as well as limbs and a body. And when it does speak, its voice will be sharp and fresh. And its views will perhaps surprise us.”

“Desde quando eu era uma garotinha, eu organizava meus planos para o futuro, que envolviam me graduar na universidade de Oxford e andar só de blusa e calcinha pelo meu apartamento em New York City, segurando uma caneca com café expresso. Eu teria um gato e trabalharia em casa, usando saltos e vestidos e maquiagem e joias quando fosse sair. E claro, eu continuaria assistindo mais e mais filmes de comédia romântica. Eu teria uma vida tranquila e independente. A única coisa diferente na minha vida agora é que eu decidi ter um cachorro.”

“Mentorships, similar to other important relationships, usually end. Ideological differences and a need to chart a personal path might preclude parties from maintaining the original balance that stabilized a mentoring relationship. Conflict between an apprentice and his master is not always bad; in fact, it is almost inevitable, if the apprentice’s destiny is to exceed the accomplishments of the master.”
