“Las viejas como la Peta Ponce tienen el poder de plegar y confundir el tiempo, lo multiplican y lo dividen, los acontecimientos se refractan en sus manos verrugosas como en el prisma más brillante, cortan el suceder consecutivo en trozos que disponen en forma paralela, curvan esos trozos y los enroscan organizando estructuras que les sirven para que se cumplan sus designios.”

“Las virtudes que más se honran en los magistrados , la imparcialidad, la resistencia a todas las seducciones del sentimiento, y esa serena indiferencia casi sacerdotal que purifica y recompone bajo la rígida fórmula de la ley los casos más turbios de la vida, no brillarían tanto si a su lado, dándoles mayor realce, no pudieran afirmarse en contraste las opuestas virtudes de los abogados, que son la pasión de la lucha generosa por lo justo, la rebelión contra toda supercheria, y la tendencia a ablandar bajo la llama del sentimiento el duro metal de las leyes para formarlas mejor sobre la viva realidad humana.”

“Las últimas palabras me gustan tanto como las primeras, aunque no exactamente en el mismo sentido que a Miles Halter. Me encantan las últimas palabras que pronuncian los criminales antes de ser ejecutados, cuando intentan ser ingeniosos recordándole al pelotón de ejecución que no tienen todo el día; o cuando insisten en su inocencia, lo cual lleva a uno a comprender lo irreversible que es la pena de muerte. ¿Cuántas veces se ha demostrado que el asesino era otro después de la muerte de un inocente atrapado en una situación terrible? Me encantan las últimas palabras de los poetas, escritores y dramaturgos que dejan bellas notas de suicidio o cantan al amor en su lecho de muerte. Y también las de las personas que son fieles a la profesión hasta el último aliento, como los gramáticos o esos bichos raros obsesionados con los tecnicismos de las palabras, que antes de dejar esta vida exclaman algo similar a: «"Me estoy muriendo" o "Estoy a punto de morirme", ambas son correctas.”

“Lasciarti in pace! Non è difficile, ma come potrò io lasciare in pace me stesso? A noi occorre non essere lasciati in pace! Abbiamo bisogno d'essere veramente tormentati una volta ogni tanto!

“Lasciatemelo ripetere: non dovete affrontare alla leggera la pagina bianca.
Non vi chiedo di affrontarla con timore riverenziale o senza dubbi; non vi chiedo di essere politicamente corretti o accantonare il vostro senso dell'umorismo (pregate Iddio di averne uno)”

“LASER spotters were employed to visually monitor air traffic in the vicinity of the high powered LASER beam. The were typically young students and aged people that would take these temporary very high altitude jobs for some extra money. Some would become irritable as the night progressed. As far as I know, there has never been any long term monitoring of these people for health issues stemming from nighttime industrial LASER exposure or oxygen starvation.”
“Laser technology has fulfilled our people's ancient dream of a blade so fine that the person it cuts remains standing and alive until he moves and cleaves. Until we move, none of us can be sure that we have not already been cut in half, or in many pieces, by a blade of light. It is safest to assume that our throats have already been slit, that the slightest alteration in our postures will cause the painless severance of our heads.”

Mögen alle Wesen frei sein.
Mögen alle Wesen frei sein.”

“Lass dir Alles geschehn: Schönheit und Schrecken.
Man muss nur gehn: Kein Gefühl ist das fernste.”
“Lass dir’s gesagt sein, dass Freundlichkeit gegen jedermann die erste Lebensregel ist, die uns manchen Kummer sparen kann, und dass du selbst gegen die, welche dir nicht gefallen, verbindlich sein kannst, ohne falsch und unwahr zu werden. Die wahre Höflichkeit und der feinste Weltton ist die angeborene Freundlichkeit eines wohlwollenden Herzens. Wirkliche Bescheidenheit und Anspruchslosigkeit sind der wahre Schutz gegen die Kränkungen und die Zurücksetzungen dieser Welt. Wenn wir nichts anderes scheinen wollen als wir eigentlich sind, so kann weder Rang noch Geburt, noch Menge und Glanz uns wesentlich aus der Fassung bringen.”
“Lass ihn ein Held sein. Du bist etwas anderes. - Und was soll das sein? -

“Lass.' Saga turned away to hide her smile. How like a fairy tale, that word. Rapunzel. A tall tower by a deep emerald lake. A dark green word, 'lass.'
As she turned, she saw the bookcase beside the armchair- right out there in the garden! It was filled with with paperback books that looked as if they'd been read about a hundred times each. She saw Pride and Prejudice, she saw Middlemarch and The Quiet American. Titles she had seen forever on the shelves in Uncle Marsden's house.
"What if it rains when you're not looking?"
"These are the books everyone likes to read again and again, books you can lose because they'll reappear the minute you turn your back. They replace themselves," he said. Saga pictured this man with the dashing accent as the rescuer of Rapunzel. It was't outrageous in the least. He was handsome enough, though neither tall nor dark. His skin and hair were faintly golden, or they had been once upon a time, and his hands were long and slim like the hands of a prince. Piano hands, Aunt Liz would have said.”

“Lassiter skidded in from the billiards room, the fallen angel glowing from his black-and-blond hair and white eyes, all the way down to his shitkickers. Then again, maybe the illumination wasn’t his nature, but that gold he insisted on wearing.
He looked like a living, breathing jewelry tree.
“I’m here. Where’s my chauffeur hat?”
“Here, use mine,” Butch said, outing a B Sox cap and throwing it over. “It’ll help that hair of yours.”
The angel caught the thing on the fly and stared at the red S. “I’m sorry, I can’t.”
“Do not tell me you’re a Yankees fan,” V drawled. “I’ll have to kill you, and frankly, tonight we need all the wingmen we’ve got.”
Lassiter tossed the cap back. Whistled. Looked casual.
“Are you serious?” Butch said. Like the guy had maybe volunteered for a lobotomy. Or a limb amputation. Or a pedicure.
“No fucking way,” V echoed. “When and where did you become a friend of the enemy—”
The angel held up his palms. “It’s not my fault you guys suck—”
Tohr actually stepped in front of Lassiter, like he was worried that something a lot more than smack talk was going to start flying. And the sad thing was, he was right to be concerned. Apart from their shellans, V and Butch loved the Sox above almost everything else—including sanity.”

Straight-faced, Nick popped Jeremy in the arm with a fist.
"Dude," Jeremy said, rubbing his arm. "Maybe you aren't doing it right 'cause sex is supposed to chill your ass out."
Easy managed a smile. "I really like your brother, Rix," Easy said, looking at Nick.”

“Last but not least my family. My brother Tony, I love you. Thank you for beating me up when I was a kid. I always wanted to follow in your footsteps. I pray for you every night. You’ve taught me to feel confident in myself, believe in myself that I can do it when I didn’t think I could do it.
Dad, it’s been an up-and-down road for all of us, but you’ve always been there supporting from afar, texting me Bible verses every single day, telling me you love me every single day. That builds me up and I thank you so much. I love you. I’m just glad you’re part of this journey with us.”
“Last but not least, I would say you should have big dreams, full dreams, not half dreams. You know, it's very simple. You can't put a large box in a small box. Well, you cannot put a full life in a small dream box.”
“Last but not least, she put on a pair of black-framed reading glasses she’d found on Mr. Mercer’s bedside table. If it worked for Clark Kent, it’d work for her.”
“Last but not least, the happiest people do have their share of stresses, crises, and even tragedies. They may become just as distressed and emotional in such circumstances as you or I, but their secret weapon is the poise and strength they show in coping in the face of challenge.”

“Last call. It was about that time. He’d probably been drinking liquid courage all night, waiting for his chance to hit on her. I had little choice in assuming he was a three-time loser with a wad-of-cash to wave around and a bozo smile to boot. About to prate his many accomplishments as a man of the world and his travels among the world’s top markets.”

“Last century, when the beams needed replacing, carpenters used oak trees that had been planted in 1386 when the dining hall was first built. The 14th-century builder had planted the trees in anticipation of the time, hundreds of years in the future, when the beams would need replacing. Did the carpenters plant new trees to replace the beams again a few hundred years from now?”
“Last Christmas Daphne hadn't been born yet; nor had Fanny. Now here sat Daphne chewing a wad of blue tissue while Franny stirred her fists through Agatha's jigsaw puzzle.
