“Wes wants to be with Macy. And Macy, whether she'll admit it or not, wants to be with Wes. And yet they're not together, which is not only unjust, but when you think about it, tragical!”

“I said, somewhat confused, “What’s the problem?”
[Kristy] rolled her eyes. Beside her, Monica said, “Donneven.”
“Kristy.” Delia shook her head. “This isn’t the time or the place, okay?”
“The time or the place for what?” Caroline asked.
“There is never,” Kristy said adamantly, “a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.”
“Throbbing?” my mother said, leaning forward and looking at me. “Who’s throbbing?”
“Macy and Wes,” Kristy told her.
“We are not,” I said indignantly.
“Kristy,” Delia said helplessly. “Please God I’m begging you, not now.”
“Wait a second, wait a second.” Caroline held her hands up. “Kristy. Explain.”
“Yes, Kristy,” my mother said, but she was looking at me. Not really mad as much as confused. Join the club, I thought. “Explain.”
Bert said, “This ought to be good.”
Kristy ignored him, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear. “Wes wants to be with Macy. And Macy, whether she’ll admit it or not, wants to be with Wes. And yet they’re not together, which is not only unjust, but really, when you think about it, tragical.”
“That’s not a word,” Bert pointed out.
“It is now,” she said. “How else can you explain a situation where Wes, a truly extraordinary boy, would be sent packing in favor of some brainiac loser…”
“Why,” I said, feeling embarrassed, “do we have to keep talking about this?”
“Because it’s tragical!” Kristy said….”I’ll tell you what it is. It’s wrong. You should be with Wes, Macy. The whole time you guys were hanging out, talking about how you were both with other people, it was so obvious to everyone. It was even obvious to Wes. You were the only one who couldn’t see it, just like you can’t see it now.”
“Mmm-hmm,” Monica said aloud.”

“يحظى معتنقو الإسلام بقدر عال من الاحترام في مجتمعاتهم, بيد أن معتنقات الإسلام غالباً ما يجدن أنفسهن أقل تقديراً. و على الرغم من أنهن أكثر عدداً من الرجال و أكثر تمسكاً بدينهن كما رأيت بنفسي, و يبذلن جهوداً أكبر للمساهمة في الأنشطة الإسلامية, إلا أن كثيراً منهن يندبن مصيرهن الذي يؤول إلى التهميش و الإهمال, أو حتى الازدراء في مجتمعاتهن.”

“Ojalá cobraran voz mis brazos, y mis manos, y mi pelo, y mis pies, por el arte de Dédalo o de algún dios, para agarrarse todos de tus rodillas, conjurándote con llanto y con palabras de todas las clases.”

“Elles ont le corps pulpeux là où le regard mâle cherche du rebondi, quelque chose de ferme, doux et chaud pour remplir une paume rêche, rarement propre à cause des travaux manuels qui ne sont pas le lot des maîtres au village. Le type usé cherche un corps jeune pour essuyer ses mains crottées d'homme vaillant, un corps-torchon qui sent bon la vanille importée, la mauvaise gousse taillée, puis frottée entre les seins et à l'attache des bras qui n'a pas connu le fil du couteau sur la veine la plus apparente, celle qui pisserait rouge si on la tranchait dans le sens de la mort.”

“Mes juk visi užaugom šaly, kur vabščie nieka gera nebuva, jau nekalbant, ka būtų kas originalaus. Pobeda nuo amerikonų. Volga nuknista nuo amerikonų. Žiags nuo italų. Apie maskaradą su Zapu vien pagalvojus silpna, be i tie lygtais irgi nuo tų pačių italų - i nuo kada italai geriausias mašinas dara? Senis Šaltis nuo Santa Klaua nuimts. Nu, pogodi, geriausias multiks, nuo Toma i Džeria. Čipolins čia virta Buratinu, o daktars Dolitlis - daktaru Aibolitu. O jūs bandien palygint motorolerius Vitka i Vespa ? Atskiriat? Aš tai ne. Nu tai va. Jaučiu, net Sibira lageriai nuo Hitlerio nuimti.”

“—Sus soldados abusan de nuestras mujeres —estruja su sombrero y pierde la voz el alcalde Paiva Runhuí—. Me perjudicaron a una cuñadita hace pocos meses y la semana pasada casi me perjudican a mi propia esposa.
—Mis soldados no, los de la Nación —hace gestos apaciguadores el general Victoria—. Calma, calma señor alcalde. El Ejército lamenta muchísimo el percance de su cuñada y hará cuanto pueda para resarcirla.
—¿Ahora le llaman percance al estupro? —se desconcierta el padre Beltrán—. Porque eso es lo que fue.
—A Florcita la agarraron dos uniformados viniendo de la chacra y se la montaron en plena trocha —se come las uñas y brinca en el sitio el alcalde Teófilo Morey—. Con tan buena puntería que ahora está encinta, general.”
