“McWorld is a product of popular culture driven by expansionist commerce. Its template is American, its form style. Its goods are as much images as matériel, an aesthetic as well as a product line. It is about culture as commodity, apparel as ideology. Its symbols are Harley-Davidson motorcycles and Cadillac motorcars hoisted from the roadways, where they once represented a mode of transportation, to the marquees of global market cafés like Harley-Davidson's and the Hard Rock where they become icons of lifestyle.”

“ME, a neurological disease[20,21], has been described in the medical literature since 1934 under various names[22], e.g., epidemic neuromyasthenia and atypical poliomyelitis, often on account of outbreaks[23-25]. Characteristic symptoms of ME, classified as a disease of the nervous system by the WHO since 1969[26], are: muscle weakness, neurological dysfunction, especially of cognitive, autonomic and neurosensory functions; variable involvement of the cardiac and other systems; a prolonged relapsing course; but above all general or local muscular fatigue after minimal exertion with prolonged recovery times (post-exertional “malaise”)[20].”

“Me abalancé sobre él sin miedo de ningún tipo, ni siquiera a caernos. Y, si caía, sabía que no habría forma más bonita de... La campana sonó, dando permiso a que las cientos de personas que allí nos hallábamos, dejásemos volar al aire nuestros farolillos y, con ello, nuestros sueños.”

“Me acerco y observo la palomilla de san Juan. Su tamaño y su forma son los de una polilla común y corriente, pero sus alas son rojas como polvo de sindoor, como sangre seca. Algo, tal vez su fragilidad, me incita a aplastarla. Acerco la mano. Va a volar cuando sienta mi tacto, pienso, pero no se mueve. El polvo de sus alas es impalpable de tan ligero. Hago una pinza con el índice y el pulgar, y oprimo su cuerpo de migaja sobre la cabeza de la llave. Estrujo con la yema el esqueleto. Ella agita las alas con un leve estertor, lo rojo se impregna entre las ranuras del metal, en los relieves de la palabra Yale, penetra en las partículas de estaño y cobre, escurre por el vástago dentado.”

“Me acerqué más aún y le dije susurrando —Hoy brindé por una noche sin conciencia ni culpas, el universo no me pudo enviar una mejor señal que un diseñador, esto debe significar algo. Ian levantó su ceja. Sostenía mi mirada a cinco centímetros de distancia de mi rostro, le preguntó a Johannes que nos observaba anonadado con las cejas arqueadas. —Amigo ¿Por qué brindamos hoy cuando nos servimos nuestro primer trago? —Por una noche creativa —respondió Johannes entre risas. —Y el universo me envió a una diseñadora… definitivamente esto debe significar algo.”

“Me and a mate picked up two darling birds and they took us back to their flat. I went into the bedroom with my bird and she started getting undressed. I was that drunk I was standing there wondering how to get undressed without letting go of the award. I went to sit on the bed, missed it by four feet and ended up lying on the floor. I remember the bird looking down at me, and saying, ‘Some player of the year.’ Then I fell asleep. I woke up still clutching my award and staggered out of the flat. I hadn’t a bloody clue where I was.”

“Me and Conan O'Brien and Robert Smigel and Dana Carvey wrote a script called 'Hans and Franz: The Girlyman Dilemma,' and it was going to be co-produced with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and he was going to co-star in it. We had a deal with Sony, we got paid to write it, and it was a musical, but it never got made because...I think Arnold kind of backed out at the last minute because he was getting cold feet because ;The Last Action Hero' had come out, where he was parodying himself. But it was a really funny script, and I wish it could've seen the light, because I think it would've done really well.”
