“Kini dunia sains dan teknologi harus dilihat sebagai sesuatu yang oleh John Kenneth Galbraith disebut technostructure, yang semakin berwilayah mondial, trans- dan multi-nasional, suatu organisme dan organisasi yang otonom dan sangat berdaulat, bertindak sistematis dengan segala prarancang, produksi kontrol dan pemodalan canggih. Struktur-techno ini akan semakin lebih kuasa daripada kekuasaan negara-negara kebangsaan, dan ikut menentukan perang atau damai dan segala dimensi kehidupan sampai di pelosok paling terpencil pun.”

“Kinky!”
“Kinky is using a feather. Perverted is using the whole chicken. Sex is more than an act of pleasure, its' the ability to be able to feel so close to a person, so connected, so comfortable that it's almost breathtaking to the point you feel you can't take it. And at this moment you're a part of them. The difference between light and hard is that you can sleep with a light on. Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a man who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that's a real treat.”
“Kinky sex involves the use of duck feathers. Perverted sex involves the whole duck.”

“Kino escuchó el leve romper de las olas de la mañana en la playa. Era estupendo...Kino volvió a cerrar los ojos y atendió a su música interior. Quiza sólo él hiciera eso, y quizá lo hiciera toda su gente. Los suyos habían sido una vez grandes creadores de canciones, hasta el punto de que todo lo que veían o pensaban o hacían u oían, se convertía en canción...”

“Kinoshita brought over several trays, placing one in front of each of them. Each had soup, a main dish, and--- orange-colored rice?
"What is this?"
"It's carrot rice! With unlimited second helpings!"
Sure enough, the rice was packed full of so many carrots, that's all you could see.
Otoha started with the soup, which was a potage with roughly mashed potatoes. Not very showy, yet the wonderful flavor spread throughout her. She let out a deep sigh. Not the type of sigh she'd let out in front of Mr. Tamura, but one of deep satisfaction nonetheless.
She next turned to the carrot rice.
"Wow... this is delicious," she said as she took a big bite. The sweetness of carrots, the aroma of soy sauce--- what a gentle, delicious flavor the rice had.”

“Kinship among nations is not determined in such measurements as proximity of size and age. Rather we should turn to those inner things - call them what you will - I mean those intangibles that are the real treasures free men possess. To preserve his freedom of worship, his equality before law, his liberty to speak and act as he sees fit, subject only to provisions that he trespass not upon similar rights of others - a Londoner will fight. So will a citizen of Abilene. When we consider these things, then the valley of the Thames draws closer to the farms of Kansas and the plains of Texas.”

“Kintsugi is a Japanese art, that takes broken pottery and delicately places it back together by sealing the cracks with gold lacquer. I found myself admiring the metaphor it represents.
It reminded me of you.
Maybe you feel like you are broken inside, maybe you’re worried that you will disappoint me. Just like this pottery, life will never be perfect, but it can be beautiful. But we have to choose to see the beauty of it, not despite it’s cracks or imperfections but because of it.
I get that you may not want to show me the side of you that’s less than perfect, but don’t you see?
I don’t want perfect. Perfect is overrated.
All I want is you.
All that you are.
Exactly as you are.
I want you to know that I will wait for you, for as long as it takes.
Take your time. (but not too long)”

To celebrate the history of the object. What it's been through. And I was just... Thinking of us like that. My heart full of gold veins, instead of cracks.”

“Kintsugi,' zei opa. 'Zo heet de techniek waarmee je een perfecte imperfectie maakt. Als je gebroken bent betekent dat niet automatisch dat je lelijk bent. Na een breuk ontstaat er ruimte. Dat is de plek voor het goud. Als je het een kans geeft maakt het je mooier dan je ooit bent geweest.”

The mortals don’t realize they are funding the Amazon kingdom. Soon, we’ll be richer than any mortal nation. Then—when the weak mortals depend on us for everything—the revolution will begin!” “What are you going to do?” Frank grumbled. “Cancel free shipping?”
“Kinzinger turned to the four of us and acknowledged that he gotten to know us a bit, and that we represented hundreds of officers who responded on January 6th.

You guys held.”

“Kioskimiehen parhain tuntomerkki on, että hän istuu kaiket päivät kioskilla, juo pilsneriä tai muita virvoitusjuomia ja venyy kaiteeseen nojaten ja liikennettä tarkkaillen aamuvarhaisesta iltamyöhään vartiopaikallaan. Tupakka lerpottaa alaspäin hänen suupielessään ja lakki on silmillä. Ystäviään hän tervehtii nostamalla etusormensa pystyyn tai huutamalla: - Minnepä nyt menet? Jos hänellä on joku työhomma, niin se on totisesti leipävirka, vastenmielinen välttämättömyys varsinaisen kutsumustehtävän ohella.”
