“When, however, one reads of a witch being ducked, of a woman possessed by devils, of a wise woman selling herbs, or even of a very remarkable man who had a mother, then I think we are on the track of a lost novelist, a suppressed poet, of some mute and inglorious Jane Austen, some Emily Bronte who dashed her brains out on the moor or mopped and mowed about the highways crazed with the torture that her gift had put her to. Indeed, I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.”

“160 - Falar com cautela. Com os rivais por cautela, com os demais por decência. Sempre há tempo para enviar a palavra, mas não para voltar atrás. Há-se de falar como em testamento, que para menos palavras, menos pleitos. No que não importa se há de ensaiar para o que importa. Há algo de divino no mistério. A fala leviana perto está de ser vencida e convencia.”

“Doctor Parcival began to plead with George Willard. 'You must pay attention to me,' he urged. 'If something happens you will be able to write the book that I may never get written. The idea is very simple, so simple that if you are not careful you will forget it. It is this - that everyone in the world is Christ and they are all crucified. That's what I want to say. Don't you forget that. Whatever happens, don't you dare let yourself forget that.”
