“Roma me mostró las sorprendentes hazañas que pueden llevar a cabo los hombres de fe. Orar ante las tumbas de los santos y mártires, y estar en un lugar donde tanta gente ha vivido y ha muerto antes de mí, me hizo reflexionar sobre los constantes avisos de Nuestra Señora respecto a la brevedad de la vida en la tierra. Cuando llegas a conocer el Cielo, miras el mundo de un modo diferente. Entiendes que la vida en la tierra es sólo temporal y que la muerte no es un final. «Liberáos de todo lo que os ata solamente a las cosas terrenas y permitid que lo que es de Dios modele vuestra vida a través de la oración y el sacrificio».”

“Roma’s eyes flared. “You’re saying Einstein was even more wrong?”
Retina shook his head. “Einstein was acting within physical bounds. I’m talking invisible, not visible light. Can we factor in the speed of invisible light?”
Roma shook his head. “What are you saying?”
“We’re always limited by the scope of our senses, our perceptions and its scientific perfections. But in this parallel we call universe there are scopes beyond our perceptive realities or possible realities. Einstein was not wrong but was limited in scope. There is a realm beyond our visible spectrum where time is imperceptible because space is without measure. And in that realm, matter and energy are not intricately related. Matter has no form and is ill recognizable as essence or existence. Energy is all there is.”
Roma held a frown. “Who’s been feeding you that Spiritualist crap?”

“Roma è sovrastata da un cielo livido di temporale, che lascia qua e là dei varchi per far passare enormi fasci luminosi creando una luce artificiale che pennella i palazzi di oro sgargiante. Una vecchia baldracca imbellettata, ecco quello che è questa città: una puttana a fine carriera, ancora bellissima se la guardi di sera alla luce fioca delle candele, ma rivoltante se te la trovi di fianco al mattino, senza trucco e senza voglia. Ma proprio per questo si prende il lusso di sbatterti fuori a calci, per piangere da sola davanti allo specchio.
[Emilia Bianchetti, Tramonti d'occidente, p.12]”

“Roman Catholics have always been able to appeal to the traditions of holy Mother the Church. But the Church of England, as such, has nothing to appeal to. How can we [Anglicans] pretend to appeal to Church traditions, when we have cut ourselves off from the main stream of it and any exposition of it must needs be a raking up of old dead documents, instead of obedience to a living voice? And how can we pretend to appeal to the Bible, when the Bible is for everyman's private interpretation, and not expounded by authority?”

And he said, "When my head is in my hands, I'm closing my eyes and trying to remember what I saw in my head, before any of the stuff."”

overcoming shells that totally fake are,
thinking of how the opposing force feels,

from nothing to love getting, not for the show,
you need just experience, patience, soft calm,
just sometimes to nonchalant be with your palms…”
