“Life is a train ride, and at the many stations along the route, people important to us debark, never to get aboard again, until by the end of our journey, we sit in a passenger car where most of the seats are empty. This truth saddens the doctor no less than it does other men and women who are given to reflection — although his sorrow is undeniably of a quality different from theirs.”

“Metaphor: «Barbado y entre sábanas de dislocado espectro, osa ahuyentar las olas, cual mal comediante la patraña del despropósito, pues antes que fraile barbero fue la mar, loada de pocos lobos y burla de los muchos necios» Answer: La cita es una descripción irónica o sarcástica de alguien que pretende dominar o escapar de una situación que le supera, como el mar o la vida. El hablante le compara con un hombre barbudo y envuelto en sábanas blancas, que parece un fantasma o un loco, y que intenta espantar las olas con gestos ridículos, como un mal actor que representa una farsa o una mentira. El hablante le recuerda que el mar es más antiguo y poderoso que él, y que solo merece el respeto de unos pocos valientes y el desprecio de muchos necios.”

“A poem-shaped space, I thought. A poem-shaped space. I tried to hold a poem-shaped space in my mind. Sometimes the work of life is like preparing a bedroom for a guest: sweeping the floor, emptying the ash-tray, watering the sloping aloe plant. Opening the window wide to let new air in. I did all this inside my head, behind my eyes, while my fingers made words appear and waited for that guest to arrive.”

“Metaphor: «Oh, Diablo mío, ignoran los cuerdos que es preciso enloquecer para saborear los epicúreos placeres de la vida, de etéreas razones y austeridad a cebar las mentes tienden nuestros días» Answer: Sugiere que aquellos que se adhieren estrictamente a las normas de la cordura pueden estar perdiéndose de los verdaderos placeres de la vida.”
