“When Adam accepted the fruit of that tree, he succumbed to the temptation to live without limit - and so the person who offered him that fruit is called "Life".
Ishmael nodded. "Whenever a Taker couple talk about how wonderful it would be to have a big family, they're reenacting this scene beside the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. They're saying to themselves, 'Of course it's our right to apportion life on this planes as we please. Why stop at four kids or six? We can have fifteen if we like. All we have to do is plow under another few hundred acres of rain forest - and who cares if a dozen other species disappear as a result?”

“Oricum, dacă încetezi să spui oamenilor că totul o să fie pus în ordine după ce or să fie morți, poate încearcă să facă ordine cât încă sunt în viață. Dacă eu aș conduce, aș încerca să-i fac pe oameni să trăiască mult mai mult, ca bătrânul Matusalem. Ar fi mult mai interesant și ar putea să se gândească la lucrurile pe care le fac mediului și ecologiei, pentru că ar fi acolo și după o sută de ani.”

“Tu vois, je crois que... Cette lutte de tous les jours, elle repose sur l'amour. Pas sur l'ambition, le besoin d'avoir, de posséder, mais sur l'amour... Pas l'amour de sois non plus. Ça c'est le malheur, c'est ce qui nous fait tourner en rond. Non ! Sur l'amour des autres, l'amour de la vie. Quand tu aimes, tu es sauvée.”
― Katherine Pancol, The Yellow Eyes of Crocodiles

“I've had that kind of experience myself: I'm looking at a map and I see someplace that makes me think, 'I absolutely have to go to this place, no matter what'. And most of the time, for some reason, the place is far away and hard to get to. I feel this overwhelming desire to know what kind of scenerybthe place has, or what people are doing there. It's like measles - you can't show other people exactly where the passion comes from. It's curiosity in the purest sense. An inexplicable inspiration.”
― Haruki Murakami, 1Q84
