“Smrt nije najveća nedaća u našem životu, več je najveća nedaća da u nama umre strah od Allaha, a još smo živi.”
“SMRT: Oho-ho!
Otkud vi u sektoru?
Što se zadržavate,
Apolone Febe, tu?
Zar opet omalovažavate
ingerencije donjih službi?
Nije li dovoljan presedan
bilo Admetovo izuzeće,
odjel sudbine grubo izmanipuliran?
Zar se sada, je li, okreće
vaša oružana sila
i u obranu predmetne žene
koja je sama odlučila
provesti značajne izmjene
u planu umiranja supruga?”

“Smug respectability, like the poor, we've had with us always. Today, however, ... such obtuseness is an indulgence we can no longer afford.

“Smuggle out the truth, pass it through all the obstacles that its enemies fabricate; multiply, spread by all means possible her message so that she may triumph; through zeal and civic action counterbalance the influence of money and the machinations lavished on the propagation of deception. That, in my opinion, is the most useful activity and the most sacred duty of pure patriotism.”

You should, if you are going to run a smugglers' hotel, get a big account book and assume that whatever you write in it, the reality is, you're going to get paid in fountain pen cartridges. If you're lucky. You could just as easily get paid with something even more useless.”

“Snacking is important. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are a great example of a perfect snack. They can go a long way.”
“Snad to bylo i tím, co všechno jsem slyšel od pana profesora, který se překonával v nadávání, žádný kočí nedovedl tak nadávat ani koním, ani lidem tak, jako pan profesor francouzské literatury a estetiky..., a přitom nám vykládal o všem, co zajímalo i jej, vykládal každý večer, ještě jsem otvíral dveře, a on než usnul, než jsme usnuli, tak do poslední chvíle vykládal taky, co je estetika a co je etika a o filozofii a filozofech, vždycky o těch filozofech vykládal tak, Krista Pána nevyjímaje, že to je banda raubířů a syčáků a vrahounů a darebáků, že kdyby nebyli, bylo by lidstvu líp, ale lidstvo že je potomstvo zlé a blbé a zločinné, a tak snad ten profesor mě utvrdil v tom, že je třeba být sám, že večer jsou vidět hvězdy a v poledne jen hluboké studny...”

“Snake says to me, "You only have me as a reference point and I am your own energy!"
I suddenly see that as I was growing up I was taught to take everything else as a reference point but never my own energy! Everything else had some value but never me!
. . .
Snake says "All the reference points you have learned in your life have now disappeared! Feel my energy as a part of the Universe. This part is always in contact with all the other parts of the universe, there is no separation!"
I see that I have always been in touch with this part but that my awareness was glued to everything else but this. That was the separation! I ask snake what it needs from me and he replies he needs for me to love him.
I immediately feel fear. I realize there was always fear of loving the snake, sometimes overwhelming fear. I see an inmense history of people being taught to fear the snake. I see the bible: there is a tremendous fear of loving the snake. But then I see that you can never love another person fully until you have loved your own snake, for everyone has a snake!
"That is the separation. Your inability to love me!"
I become fully aware that the snake that I had so feared had always been in the right side of my body!
. . .
Snake says, "Because people fear the snake instead of loving it, it get loose and is very destructive!"
I then experience that there are in fact two snakes: one in my left side that is very fearful and the one in my right side that is very powerful. I realize that I have always identified with the snake on the left side and that I have been terrified of the snake on the right side. I then realize that the fear on the left side is also love! When it pulls back and retreats it is fear, but when it goes forward it is love.
Both snakes rise up in me and meet deliberately face to face in the middle of my forehead.
This powerful meeting vibrates throughout my body and it comes to full focus right in the center of my forehead. I recognize this animal! It is the Sisiutl from Mexican simbology: the single snake with two heads.
It embraces the universe and comes back to meet itself face to face. I realize Sisiutl is both the symbol and the energy of wholeness...

“Snakes shed their skin, cats their fur, manta rays their teeth.
