“No solo somos lo que hacemos, sino también lo que no hacemos. Somos lo que decimos, casi tanto como lo que callamos. Somos las preguntas que no nos atrevemos a pronunciar, en la misma medida que esas respuestas que nunca llegarán y permanecerán eternamente flotando entre remolinos de miedo e incertidumbre. Somos la sutilidad de una mirada, la intimidad de una caricia suave, la curva de una sonrisa sincera. Somos momentos bonitos, instantes agridulces, noches tristes. Somos detalles. Somos reales.
Pero, por encima de todo lo demás, somo las decisiones que tomamos. En toda su dimensión. Por cada elección, damos un paso al frente y abandonamos algo en el camino. O damos un paso atrás y abandonamos algo que estaba por llegar. Avanzamos entre alternativas, seleccionando unas, rechazando otras, marcando nuestro destino.”

“No son ever develops into manhood without, in some way, being disloyal to his mother. If he remains with her, to comfort her and console her, then he never gets out of his mother complex. Often a mother will do all she can to keep her son with her. One of the most subtle ways is to encourage him the idea of being loyal to her; but if he gives in to her completely then she often finds herself with a son severely injured in his masculinity.
The son must ride off and leave his mother, even if it appears to mean disloyalty, and the mother must bear this pain. Later, like Parsifal, the son may come back to the mother and they may find a new relationship, on a new level; but this can only be done after the son has first achieved his independence and transferred his affection to a woman, either in an interior way with his own inner feminine side or in an exterior way with a real female companion of his own age.
In our myth, Parsifal's mother died when he left. Perhaps she represents the kind of woman who can only exist as a mother, who dies when this role is taken from her because she does not understand how to be an individual woman, but only a "mother.”

“No son of mine, Lord.
No son of mine!
Beat beat beat
You try to beat it out of me
Belt it out of me
Heartless heart
Beat beating
You think you can bruise me
Out of being
Bruise it out of me
When you belt it beat it
Try to break it-
Try to break the thing you cannot break
Because I carry it so deep inside
No beat of yours no belt of yours
Will ever come close.
You try to beat it out of me
Belt it out of me
Belt me into buckling
Beat me into heartstopping
Stophurting
Trying so hard
You say you'll kill me to save me
Kill the me inside of me
Beat it belt it but it
Just won't budge.
Not for you.
I know
You can't stay in this room forever
I know
We can't stay in this room forever
You beat me belt me to get to me
But you'll never get to me
Not the me me heartbeat me.
I am saving it.
I am saving it for tonight
I am saving it for you right there
And you over there.
I am saving it for
Every you with a me deep inside.
Now that I've left that room
Out into the world as big
As a billion rooms
I have saved me
Yes, I have saved me
Constructed of words and hurt
And the glass self I've protected
All this time
To get to this one of a billion rooms
This room tonight.
Beat beat beat
I have found my own beat
My own pitter-patter
My own sis-boom-bah!
Beat beat beat
I belt it out
Song sung strong
Stung song
Tongue song
Back from being
Bitten back
Some songs sung
beg to be carried home.
This song sings
To be carried far and wide.
Beat beat beat-
The sound it brings
Is the sound of wings.”

“No sooner did the plan let them off at New Caledonia, than Barby found another friend. He was a Kanaka taxi driver, over six feet tall and muscled like a blacksmith, with sooty skin and hair turned yellow from many applications of lime, a standard native treatment for lice. He chewed betel incessantly, which Barby thought was fascinating, since it turned his tongue and lips the color of a ripe tomato. His name, he said in wonderfully bad English, was Henri. He pronounced it 'On-ree.”

“No sooner did we start than it all came to an end.”
“No sooner do we believe that God loves us than there is an impulse to believe that He does so, not because He is Love, but because we are intrinsically lovable. The Pagans obeyed this impulse unabashed; a good man was "dear to the gods" because he was good. We, being better taught, resort to subterfuge. Far be it from us to think that we have virtues for which God could love us. But then, how magnificently we have repented! As Bunyan says, describing his first and illusory conversion, "I thought there was no man in England that pleased God better than I." Beaten out of this, we next offer our own humility to God's admiration. Surely He'll like that? Or if not that, our clear-sighted and humble recognition that we still lack humility. Thus, depth beneath depth and subtlety within subtelty, there remains some lingering idea of our own, our very own attractiveness. It is easy to acknowledge, but almost impossible to realize for long, that we are mirrors whose brightness, if we are bright, is wholly derived from the sun that shines upon us. Surely we must have a little--however little--native luminosity? Surely we can't be quite creatures? - The Four Loves”

“No sooner does a great man depart, and leave his character as public property, than a crowd of little men rushes towards it. There they are gathered together, blinking up to it with such vision as they have, scanning it from afar, hovering round it this way and that, each cunningly endeavoring, by all arts, to catch some reflex of it in the little mirror of himself.”

“No sooner had he thought this than he realized what was anchoring his happiness. It was purpose. He knew what he wanted to do. He knew the way he thought things should be, and Mr. Harinton was proving that other people--even adults--could feel the same way. Nicholas had something to aim for now. He might not know what he wanted to be when he grew up, but he knew with absolute certainty how he wanted to be.”

“No sooner had the warm liquid mixed with the crumbs touched my palate than a shudder ran through me and I stopped, intent upon the extraordinary thing that was happening to me. An exquisite pleasure had invaded my senses, something isolated, detached, with no suggestion of its origin. And at once the vicissitudes of life had become indifferent to me, its disasters innocuous, its brevity illusory – this new sensation having had on me the effect which love has of filling me with a precious essence; or rather this essence was not in me it was me. ... Whence did it come? What did it mean? How could I seize and apprehend it? ... And suddenly the memory revealed itself. The taste was that of the little piece of madeleine which on Sunday mornings at Combray (because on those mornings I did not go out before mass), when I went to say good morning to her in her bedroom, my aunt Léonie used to give me, dipping it first in her own cup of tea or tisane. The sight of the little madeleine had recalled nothing to my mind before I tasted it. And all from my cup of tea.”

“No sooner have you achieved literacy and all other resources that cities require, then there again, after the usual numbers of years, comes the heavenly flood. It sweeps upon you like a plague and leaves only your illiterate and uncultured people behind.
