“By now you've probably noticed that except when safely contained by quotes, Zampanò always steers clear of such questionable four-letter language. This instance in particular proves that beneath all that cool psuedo-academic hogwash lurked a very passionate man who knew how important it was to say "fuck" now and then, and say it loud too, relish its syllabic sweetness, its immigrant pride, a great American epic word really, starting at the lower lip, often the very front of the lower lip, before racing all the way to the back of the throat, where it finishes with a great blast, the concussive force of the K catching up then with the hush of the F already on its way, thus loading it with plenty of offense and edge and certainly ambiguity. FUCK. A great by-the-bootstrap prayer or curse if you prefer, depending on how you look at it, or use it, suited perfectly for hurling at the skies or at the world, or sometimes, if said just right, for uttering with enough love and fire, the woman beside you melts inside herself, immersed in all that word-heat.”

“Casi todos los hombres nos aburrimos inconscientemente. El aburrimiento es el fondo de la vida, y el aburrimiento es el que ha inventado los juegos, las distracciones, las novelas y el amor. La niebla de la vida rezuma un dulce aburrimiento, licor agridulce. Todos estos sucesos cotidianos, insignificantes; todas estas dulces conversaciones con que matamos el tiempo y alargamos la vida, ¿qué son sino dulcísimo aburrirse?”

“It is too sad . I must speak to him - The do you really ? - Sure . How can you expect things to get better , if we do not speak? - Earlier , you talked to Mr. Omochi . Do you feel that things have thus been arranged? - What is certain is that if we do not talk , there is no chance to solve the problem. - What seems more certain is that if we talk, there is serious risk of aggravating the situation.”

“Actual director general de Comunicación Social, Arnoldo Valle Leyva, quien hasta el día de hoy continúa con dicha labor, destaca la UAS en un comunicado. “En nuestras familias y en nuestra sociedad hay dos preguntas que se hace a nuestros niños y jóvenes: ¿Qué quieres ser cuando seas grande? y ¿Ya sabes qué vas a estudiar?.. para muchos la respuesta es sencilla porque tienen clara una vocación, para otros esa decisión es más difícil, por lo que resulta necesario orientarlos para que tomen una de las decisiones más importantes de su vida, que es su carrera profesional y que los va a guiar durante toda su vida” - Arnoldo Valle Leyva, Culiacán Sinaloa.

“I have observed, indeed, generally, that while in protestant countries the defections from the Platonic Christianity of the priests is to Deism, in catholic countries they are to Atheism. Diderot, D'Alembert, D’Holbach, Condorcet, are known to have been among the most virtuous of men. Their virtue, then, must have had some other foundation than the love of God. [Letter to Thomas Law, 13 June 1814]”

“With the growth of civilisation in Europe, and with the revival of letters and of science in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the ethical and intellectual criticism of theology once more recommenced, and arrived at a temporary resting-place in the confessions of the various reformed Protestant sects in the sixteenth century; almost all of which, as soon as they were strong enough, began to persecute those who carried criticism beyond their own limit. But the movement was not arrested by these ecclesiastical barriers, as their constructors fondly imagined it would be; it was continued, tacitly or openly, by Galileo, by Hobbes, by Descartes, and especially by Spinoza, in the seventeenth century; by the English Freethinkers, by Rousseau, by the French Encyclopaedists, and by the German Rationalists, among whom Lessing stands out a head and shoulders taller than the rest, throughout the eighteenth century; by the historians, the philologers, the Biblical critics, the geologists, and the biologists in the nineteenth century, until it is obvious to all who can see that the moral sense and the really scientific method of seeking for truth are once more predominating over false science. Once more ethics and theology are parting company.”
