“—¿O sea que prefieres un libro que a mí? —Leonardo fingía indignación. —Nunca mi amor, sabes que no, pero quiero escribir nuestra historia, algo nuestro, sólo tuyo y mío. —Lo sé cariño, sólo bromeaba, escribe todo lo que quieras, quiero ser el mejor protagonista, pero primero te voy a inspirar y luego te pones a escribir pero mañana, hoy quiero hacerte el amor y luego, volver a hacerlo y después volver a hacerlo… —Eres insaciable. —Minerva se acaloró, la plática con su prometido la estaba excitando.”

“…चलिए ये भी ठीके है, भेज दीजिये लिंक। लिंके अब कलजुग का बरह्मा-बिसनु-महेस आ सरसती है। सबे समस्या आ काम के लिए, जिससे भी पूछिए - एक ठो लिंक दे देता है। महाभारत के टाइम में ऐसा होता त यक्ष के सब प्रश्न के जवाब में जुद्दिष्ठिर भी दू चार ठो लिंके दे दिए होते।”

“As regards the modern liberal democrat who represents the class of victors in this process of emancipation, despite his loud bragging about transgressions, too much of his language and presuppositions sound discordant with the idea of freedom -- too much necessity, inevitability, irreversible change, and too many natural God-given drives. His language holds too many references to the tides of history and refers to excessive adapting, yielding, giving in, and indulging. There is also too much easiness in pursuing freedom, too much self-absolution, and too much nonchalance in dismissing all the caveats and counterarguments accumulated over the centuries. He appears more like an actor who takes part in a performance in which he has been ordered to play the role of a free man. He duly obeys the author's and director's orders but is utterly unaware that, by listening to those orders, he has already lost his chance to be his own master.”

“She laughed. ‘I hope he will enjoy good sport– though my small experience informs me that catching fish is not necessary for your true angler’s enjoyment.’ ‘Oh, no! But to lose a fish is quite another matter!’ ‘Certainly! One cannot wonder that it should cast even the most cheerful person into gloom, for it is always such an enormous one that escapes!’ ‘I begin to think you are yourself an angler, ma’am: you are so exactly right!”
