“Το νοσταλγικό τραγούδι μετατράπηκε σιγά σιγά σ΄ έναν ξέφρενο χορό που απλωνόταν μέχρι εκεί που δεν έφτανε το βλέμμα, ενώνοντας όλους τους δρόμους, όλα τα σπίτια του χωριού. Η ζεστή γη της Ερζεγοβίνης μετέδιδε ένα παράξενο ρεύμα στα πόδια των χορευτών, το αίμα άρδευε την αλυσίδα που συνέθεταν τα καυτά χέρια δεκάδων ανθρώπων οι οποίοι είχαν μεταμορφωθεί σε ένα μοναδικό ον που ζεσταίνονταν από το ίδιο αίμα, που δονούνταν από τον ίδιο ρυθμό". - Το σφιχταγκάλιασμα του ερπετού”

“It shouldn't be here. This sedge grass is decorative bullshit he imported from Northern Asia. The lab spent two years modifying it to slot into our ecosystem, all so that the mountain would literally smell of honey. Terra di latte e miele, she said, mockingly. Thank god my father went into business, not poetry. He's far too much of a romantic. I laughed, incredulous at this portrait of my stiff employer, and Aida reddened.

The promised land, Canaan, found after forty years of wandering the desert. The land of milk and honey.”

“The known is finite, the unknown infinite; intellectually we stand on an islet in the midst of an illimitable ocean of inexplicability. Our business in every generation is to reclaim a little more land, to add something to the extent and the solidity of our possessions. And even a cursory glance at the history of the biological sciences during the last quarter of a century is sufficient to justify the assertion, that the most potent instrument for the extension of the realm of natural knowledge which has come into men's hands, since the publication of Newton's ‘Principia’, is Darwin's ‘Origin of Species.”
