Natural Gas Quotes

1. "—Eso es todo. Ese día mi abuelo me explicó que nosotros somos distintos de los animales, que solo hacen lo que su naturaleza les dicta. En cambio, nosotros somos libres. Es el mayor don que hemos recibido. Gracias a la libertad podemos convertirnos en algo distinto de lo que somos. La libertad nos permite soñar y los sueños son la sangre de nuestra vida, aunque a veces cuestan algún azote y un largo viaje. «Jamás renuncies a tus sueños. Nunca tengas miedo de soñar, por mucho que los demás se rían de ti», eso me dijo mi abuelo, «pues si lo haces renunciarías a ser tú mismo». Aún recuerdo los ojos brillantes con que subrayó sus palabras."

5. "La competencia, considerada como lo más importante de la vida, es algo demasiado triste, demasiado duro, demasiado cuestión de músculos tensos y voluntad firme, para servir como base de la vida durante más de una o dos generaciones, como máximo. Después de ese plazo tiene que provocar fatiga nerviosa, diversos fenómenos de escape, una búsqueda de placeres tan tensa y tan difícil como el trabajo (porque relajarse resulta ya imposible), y al final la desaparición de la estirpe por esterilidad. No es solo el trabajo lo que ha quedado envenenado por la filosofía de la competencia; igualmente envenenado ha quedado el ocio. El tipo de ocio tranquilo y restaurador de los nervios se considera aburrido. Tiene que haber una continua aceleración, cuyo desenlace natural serán las drogas y el colapso. El remedio consiste en reconocer la importancia del disfrute sano y tranquilo en un ideal de vida equilibrado."
Author: Bertrand Russell

"Y, sin embargo, cuando cae la noche y el espectáculo ha terminado, él y yo nos quedamos de nuevo solos con el silencio, solos con una infinita escasez de palabras; nunca imaginé que éstas pudieran ser tan parcas. Pero a mí todo me parece bien. ¿O acaso me engaño a mí misma? ¿Existe la pornografía sin porno? Mejor dicho, ¿existe la pornografía únicamente como concepto, sin representación gráfica alguna? Pura pornografía del espíritu, un estado en que la mentira transforma la naturaleza de cada acto -caricia, beso, orgasmo- en algo obsceno y perverso. Reflexiono sobre todas estas cosas, aquí, tendida en el suelo mientras espero que él pronuncie alguna de sus escasas palabras, a que vuelva a tocarme y yo a olvidarme de mis pensamientos."
Author: Cees Nooteboom

10. "Now Vegas, while you were asleep your classmates and I were discussing time manipulation. What are your thoughts on the subject?""Well," Vegas turned to the class, his captive audience and smiled, "if you can manipulate time so this bell would hurry up and ring, I'd think it's fabuloso." The class snickered again, but not everyone since someone else had made a similar joke just several minutes prior. Naturally, Vegas hadn't been able to hear it over the sound of his own snoring."
Author: Charlie Fey

11. "-Quieres ser feliz -dijo Nandita-. Es lo que quiere todo el mundo. Solo que no sabes qué cosa te hará feliz.-¿Y eso es raro?-La felicidad es lo más natural del mundo cuando la tienes, y cuando no, es lo más lento, extraño e imposible. Es como aprender un idioma extranjero: puedes pensar en todas las palabras, pero no podrás hablar hasta que te armes de valor y las digas en voz alta.-¿Y si las dices mal?-Pues entonces simplemente le habrás pedido al camarero un tazón de elefantes de biblioteca..."

So even reading about the Devil tips him off, he knows instantly he's being read about and that you're somebody he may have to deal with. And I'm thinking what you did in Vegas went way, way beyond that.""What 'I' did? What about us? We were both there.""Yeah but I cut my hair since then. They probably think that was a different guy."
