Del viento adquirió el valor y la persistencia: cómo adentrarse y presionar ante la adversidad.”

“Del presente recordaremos sólo aquello que la memoria quiera conservar, pero ella no es libre, se trata también de una memoria oprimida, de una memoria condicionada, tentada a olvidar, una memoria postrada y adormecida, claudicante. Aunque he tratado de mejorar su funcionamiento mediante varios ejercicios, no logré gran resultado. Estoy seguro de que si a nadie se le hubiera ocurrido inventar la escritura, gozaríamos de una memoria en mejor estado. Pero con la excusa de la palabra escrita, se ha vuelto tan perezosa que se pasa la mayor parte del tiempo durmiendo o distraída.”

“Delacorte Review Stories do not write themselves, much as writers may modestly insist they do. Stories exist because writers need to tell them—a need so deep that they will endure false starts, woeful sentences, dead-end paragraphs, two-dimensional characters, flabby prose, wrong turns, and shaky narratives. In short, they will risk all the things that, taken together, comprise the writer’s greatest fear: failure. Specifically, failing to tell the story they need to tell. Still, they persist. If the best fiction is propelled by imagination, we believe that the best narrative nonfiction is propelled by the relentless and often-lonely business of finding out things that are often maddeningly difficult to find. In a word: reporting. Nonfiction storytelling can be as compelling, riveting, and transporting as fiction—so long as you come back, as they say, with the goods. The Delacorte Review’s mission is discovery -- for readers to discover new, original works of ambitious narrative nonfiction. For writers to discover the stories they need to tell.”
“Delacroix was passionately in love with passion, but coldly determined to express passion as clearly as possible.”
“Delacroix, Wagner, Baudelaire - all great theorists, bent on dominating other minds by sensuous means. Their one dream was to create the irresistible effect - to intoxicate, or overwhelm. They looked to analysis to provide them with the keyboard on which to play, with certainty, on man's emotions, and they sought in abstract meditation they key to sure and certain action upon their subject - man's nervous and psychic being.”
“Delade är vi aska,

“Delaroche took no pleasure from killing, yet it left him with no remorse. He was trained to carry out assassinations with brutal and mechanical swiftness. The quickness with which he killed insulated him from any guilt or remorse. It was as if someone else were performing the act. He was not the murderer; the men who ordered the death were the real killers. Delaroche was just the weapon: the knife, the gun, the blunt object. If he had not carried out the contract, someone else would have”

“Delarosa was trying to save the human race," said Mkele. "Her only crime was that she was willing to go too far in order to do it. We decided, briefly, that we didn't want to go along with her, but look at us: We're hiding in a basement, letting Delarosa fight our battles, seriously considering lettering her deploy a nuclear bomb. We are long past the point where we can pick and choose our morality. We either save our species or we don't."
