“O Vanity Fair - Vanity Fair! This might have been, but for you, a cheery lass: - Peter Butt and Rose a happy man and wife, in a snug farm, with a hearty family; and an honest portion of pleasures, cares, hopes and struggles. But a title and a coach-and-four are toys more precious than happiness in Vanity Fair: and if Henry the Eight or Bluebeard were alive now, and wanted a tenth wife, do you suppose he could not get the prettiest girl that shall be presented this season?”

“O vazio como o lugar do haiku es-vazia tanto o Eu como o Isso. Assim, o haiku não é nem “pessoal” nem “impessoal”.
Cheiro de rochas:
Essa grama vermelha
D’água e calor
Bashō
Os haikus não apontam, além disso, para nenhum significado oculto que devesse ser encontrado. Não há metáfora da qual se deveria retirar uma interpretação. O haiku é completamente evidente. Ele é claro em si mesmo. Não é preciso primeiramente “esclarecê-lo”.
Bater do vento
Faz com que os pássaros
Fiquem mais brancos
Buson
O haiku revela inteiramente o seu “sentido”. Ele, por assim dizer, não tem nada para esconder. Ele não é voltado para dentro. Não habita nele nenhum “sentido profundo”. A ausência de “sentido profundo” constitui, justamente, a sua profundidade. Ela é correlata da ausência de interioridade da alma. A abertura clara, a amplidão desimpedida do haiku surge do coração des-interiorizado, es-vaziado, da coleção de ninguém, sem interioridade.”

“O ve ben. Br kez daha yaşamak için...uzun değil ama! Bir kez daha sevişebilmek için, bir kez daha karın ortasında kalabilmek için sessizlikle arkadaş oluruz. Dünyanın bir hücre olduğunu unutmak için inşa ettiğimiz hücrede sessizlik perdeler kadar kirlidir oysa. Hiç hikaye yaşayamaz. Şiir de okuyamaz. Sessizlik elma yiyemez.”

“O vocábulo família é pouco preciso e ambíguo, necessitando de uma desconstrução para ser reinscrito noutro paradigma, particularmente numa época de planeamento contraceptivo e de separação entre sexualidade e reprodução, de divórcios e de recomposições familiares, de multiculturalidade e casamentos mistos, de afirmação sociolaboral da mulher, de avanços científicos e tecnológicos e de uso de técnicas de reprodução medicamente assistida, da figura jurídica da união de facto abrangendo relações entre pessoas independentemente da sua orientação sexual.”
“O Voltaire! O humanity! O idiocy! There is something ticklish in "the truth," and in the SEARCH for the truth; and if man goes about it too humanely-"il ne cherche le vrai que pour faire le bien"-I wager he finds nothing!”

“O văd şi acum. Storurile erau lăsate, şi în cameră era o penumbră misterioasă, o răcoare de o cu totul altă natură decât răcoarea celorlalte camere în care pătrunsesem până atunci. Nu ştiu de ce, mi se părea că totul pluteşte acolo într-o lumină verde; poate unde perdelele erau verzi. Căci, altminteri, camera era plină de fel de fel de mobile, şi lăzi, şi coşuri cu hârtii şi jurnale vechi. Dar mie mi se părea că e verde. Şi atunci, în clipa aceea, am înţeles ce este Sambo. Am înţeles că există aici, pe pământ, lângă noi, la îndemâna noastră şi totuşi invizibil celorlalţi, inaccesibil celor neiniţiaţi — există un spaţiu privilegiat, un loc paradisiac, pe care, dacă ai avut norocul să-l cunoşti, nu-l mai poţi uita, apoi, toată viaţa. Căci în Sambo simţeam că nu mai trăiesc aşa cum trăisem până atunci; trăiam altfel, într-o continuă, inexprimabilă fericire. Nu ştiu de unde izvora beatitudinea asta fără nume. Mai târziu, amintindu-mi de Sambo, am fost sigur că acolo mă aştepta Dumnezeu, şi mă lua în braţe îndată ce-i călcam pragul. N-am mai simţit, apoi, nicăieri şi niciodată, o asemenea fericire, în nici o biserică, în nici un muzeu; nicăieri şi niciodată.”

“O was infinitely more moving when her body was covered with marks, of whatever kind, if only because these marks made it impossible for her to cheat and immediately proclaimed, the moment they were seen, that anything went as far as she was concerned. For to know this was one thing, but to see the proof of it, and to see the proof constantly renewed, was quite another.”
“O wayfarer! Yearn finds quench, not in meadows, seashores or altitude of mountain peaks; but when being and dance are one.”

“O we are wearied of this sense of guilt,
Wearied of pleasure's paramour despair,
Wearied of every temple we have built,
Wearied of every unanswered right, unanswered prayer,
For man is weak; God sleeps: and heaven is high:
One fiery-colored moment: one great love: and lo! we die.”

“O wearisome condition of humanity! Born under one law, to another bound; Vainly begot and yet forbidden vanity; Created sick, commanded to be sound.”
“O, weary angels,
don’t look at me with those eyes.
If that is your state
then what of our cries?
What can I tell you of goodness
that you don’t already know?
What can I tell you of faith,
of hope and love
that you yourselves bestow?
O, angels,
don’t pluck another feather,
this isn’t the sky,
it’s just the weather.
Please, angels, try.
We are one all together.
Look up and listen,
I’ll say it once and then put down my pen:
We are sorry for our ignorance
and even though we are worldly,
it might happen again.
We are sorry for your weariness
and even though you aren’t worldly,
we are no more than human.”

“O what a thing is age! Death without death's quiet.”
“O, what a world of unseen visions and heard silences, this insubstantial country of the mind! What ineffable essences, these touchless rememberings and unshowable reveries! And the privacy of it all! A secret theater of speechless monologue and prevenient counsel, an invisible mansion of all moods, musings, and mysteries, an infinite resort of disappointments and discoveries. A whole kingdom where each of us reigns reclusively alone, questioning what we will, commanding what we can. A hidden hermitage where we may study out the troubled book of what we have done and yet may do. An introcosm that is more myself than anything I can find in a mirror. This consciousness that is myself of selves, that is everything, and yet is nothing at all - what is it?”

“O what hardness of heart mayst thou see in every corner whither thou goest, and where thou preachest, most part being as unconcerned as the very stones of the wall; and say what thou wilt, either by setting before them alluring promises or dreadful threatenings, yet people are hardened against both, none relenting for what they have done, or concerned about it.”

“O what is it about having one's own Babe upon one's Hip that makes a Woman wish to go home to her Mother? A Desire to say: 'Look, the Circle is compleat'? A Desire to say: 'Look, I have cross'd the Divide and now am more like you'? A Desire to say: 'Look, this Babe I offer you is my most precious Gift'?”

“O what their joy and their glory must be, Those endless sabbaths the blessed ones see! crowns for the valiant, for weary ones rest: God shall be all, and in all ever blest.
