Alan Weisman
“Las dioxinas, sin embargo, fueron involuntarias, ya que se trata de subproductos formados cuando se mezclan hidrocarburos con cloro, con resultados persistentes y desastrosos. Aparte de su papel perturbador de las hormonas en los cambios sexuales, su aplicación más infame antes de que se prohibieran fue en el denominado «agente naranja», un defoliante utilizado para despojar de vegetación selvas vietnamitas enteras a fin de que los insurgentes no tuvieran dónde ocultarse. Entre 1964 y 1971, Estados Unidos roció Vietnam con 45 millones de litros de agente naranja. Cuatro décadas después, las selvas más fuertemente afectadas todavía no han vuelto a crecer. En su lugar abunda ahora una especie herbácea, el cogón, considerada una de las peores malas hierbas de todo el mundo.”
Alan Weisman, El mundo sin nosotros

William Kely McClung
“Her hair fragrant with hints of vanilla and cinnamon, subtle enough to make him wonder if it were the spices or truly the way she smelled.”
William Kely McClung, Black Fire

Gary Chapman
“Forgiveness is not a feeling; it is a commitment. It is a choice to show mercy, not to hold the offense up against the offender. Forgiveness is an expression of love.”
Gary Chapman, The Five Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts

M.L. Stedman
“The town draws a veil over certain events. This is a small community, where everyone knows that sometimes the contract to forget is as important as any promise to remember. Children can grow up having no knowledge of the indiscretion of their father in his youth, or of the illegitimate sibling who lives fifty miles away and bears another man’s name. History is that which is agreed upon by mutual consent. That”
M.L. Stedman, The Light Between Oceans

John Gunther
“Live while you live, then die and be done with.”
John Gunther, Death Be Not Proud
