Sonar Quotes

1. "Qué lindo es sonar despierto, he says. How lovely it is to dream while you are awake. Dream while you are awake, Andre. Anybody can dream while they're asleep, but you need to dream all the time, and say your dreams out loud, and believe in them.In other words, when in the final of a slam, I must dream. I must play to win."
Author: Andre Agassi

2. "Si al mecer las azules campanillas de tu balcón, crees que suspirando pasa el viento murmurador, sabe que, oculto entre las verdes hojas, suspiro yo. Si al resonar confuso a tus espaldas vago rumor, crees que por tu nombre te ha llamado lejana voz, sabe que, entre las sombras que te cercan, te llamo yo. Si se turba medroso en la alta noche tu corazón, al sentir en tus labios un aliento abrasador, sabe que, aunque invisible, al lado tuyo, respiro yo."
Author: Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer

3. "No tiene usted por qué compararse con los demás, y si la Naturaleza le ha creado para murciélago, no debe usted aspirar a ser avestruz. A veces se tiene usted por demasiado raro y se reprocha seguir caminos distintos a los que sigue la mayoría. Deje usted eso. Contemple el fuego, contemple las nubes, y en cuanto surjan los presagios y comiencen a sonar en su alma las voces, abandónese a ellas sin preguntarse antes si le conviene o le parece bien al señor profesor, a papá o a un buen dios cualquiera."
Author: Hermann Hesse

4. "The Prayer of the Middle-Aged ManAmid the doctors in the Temple at twelve, between mother & host at Cana implored too soon, in the middle of disciples, the midst of the mob, between High-Priest and Procurator, among the occupiers,between the malefactors, and 'stetit in medio, et dixit, pax vobis' and 'ascensit ad mediam Personarum et caelorum,' dear my Lord,mercy a sinner nailed dead-centre too, pray not to late,-for also Ezra stood between the seven & the six, restoring the new Law."
Author: John Berryman

5. "What about little microphones? What if everyone swallowed them, and they played the sounds of our hearts through little speakers, which could be in the pouches of our overalls? When you skateboarded down the street at night you could hear everyone's heartbeat, and they could hear yours, sort of like sonar. One weird thing is, I wonder if everyone's hearts would start to beat at the same time, like how women who live together have their menstrual periods at the same time, which I know about, but don't really want to know about. That would be so weird, except that the place in the hospital where babies are born would sound like a crystal chandelier in a houseboat, because the babies wouldn't have had time to match up their heartbeats yet. And at the finish line at the end of the New York City Marathon it would sound like war."
Author: Jonathan Safran Foer

6. "La guitarra en el roperopara siempre está colgada,nadie en ella toca nadani hace sus cuerdas sonar."
Author: Julio Cortázar

7. "Pero yo te miro de frente porque no te juzgo. No te mato a ti sino a tus actos, al eco de tus actos, su resonar lejano en las costas griegas. Se habla ya tanto de ti que eres como una vasta nube de palabras, un juego de espejos, una reiteración de fábula inasible. Tal es al menos el lenguaje de mis retóricos."
Author: Julio Cortázar

8. "People can't anticipate how much they'll miss the natural world until they are deprived of it. I have read about submarine crewmen who haunt the sonar room, listening to whale songs and colonies of snapping shrimp. Submarine captains dispense 'periscope liberty'- a chance to gaze at clouds and birds and coastlines and remind themselves that the natural world still exists. I once met a man who told me that after landing in Christchurch, New Zealand, after a winter at the South Pole research station, he and his companions spent a couple days just wandering around staring in awe at flowers and trees. At one point, one of them spotted a woman pushing a stroller. 'A baby!' he shouted, and they all rushed across the street to see. The woman turned the stroller and ran."
Author: Mary Roach

9. "No corrimos de la mano por prados llenos de flores, ni empezó a sonar una suave música de fondo cuando nos besábamos. A mi madre no le cayó ninguna casa encima. Yo no me liberé de todo de golpe, no me convertí en un ejemplo radiante que demostraba que sólo hacía falta que llegara un caballero de brillante armadura con un martillo para romper la torre de cristal. La vida no funciona así. Pero lo intentamos, seguimos intentando día a día que esto funcione, ser honestos el uno con el otro, sernos fieles, escuchar. Mirar hacia delante, hacia lo que nos espera, en vez de mirar hacia atrás, hacia lo que hemos dejado atrás."

10. "Clarissa will be bereaved, deeply lonely, but she will not die. She will be too much in love with life, with London. Virginia imagines someone else, yes, someone strong of body but frail-minded; someone with a touch of genius, of poetry, ground under by the wheels of the world, by war and government, by doctors; a someone who is, technically speaking insane, because that person sees meaning everywhere, knows that trees are sentient beings and sparrows sing in Greek. Yes, someone like that. Clarissa, sane Clarissa -exultant, ordinary Clarissa - will go on, loving London, loving her life of ordinary pleasures, and someone else, a deranged poet, a visonary, will be the one to die."
Author: Michael Cunningham

11. "En ese momento empezó a sonar If I had a gun de Noel Gallagher y él me tomó en sus brazos, me inclinó para besarme hasta dejarme sin aliento como en esas películas de Hollywood. Una pena que eso también pasó en mi mente"
Author: Miriam Meza

12. "So, great. This is Camp…what do you call it? Camp Fish-Blood?"Aphros frowned. "I hope that was a joke. This is Camp __________." He made a sound that was a series of sonar pings and hisses."
Author: Rick Riordan
