“I also remembered that you were beautiful."
"Memory does play tricks on us."
"No. Your face is the same, but I don't remember what beautiful means anymore.”
― Orson Scott Card, Ender’s Game

“Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be brilliant on its behalf.”
― Orson Scott Card, Ender’s Game

“Never love a wild thing, Mr. Bell,' Holly advised him. 'That was Doc's mistake. He was always lugging home wild things. A hawk with a hurt wing. One time it was a full-grown bobcat with a broken leg. But you can't give your heart to a wild thing: the more you do, the stronger they get. Until they're strong enough to run into the woods. Or fly into a tree. Then a taller tree. Then the sky. That's how you'll end up, Mr. Bell. If you let yourself love a wild thing. You'll end up looking at the sky."
"She's drunk," Joe Bell informed me.
"Moderately," Holly confessed....Holly lifted her martini. "Let's wish the Doc luck, too," she said, touching her glass against mine. "Good luck: and believe me, dearest Doc -- it's better to look at the sky than live there. Such an empty place; so vague. Just a country where the thunder goes and things disappear.”

“На какво всъщност ме бе научил? Какво бях извлякъл от тези единадесет месеца от учението на отсъстващия Лама?
Бях разбрал, че да повтаряш заклинанията, не служи за нищо, само усилието създава благоденствие. Бях разбрал, че доброто изисква повече усилия, отколкото злото. Бях разбрал и че тялото ми е несигурна лодка , ако го натоваря с престъпления, потъва, а ако я олекотя, като практикувам отделяне от света, щедрост и забрава на себе си, тя ме отвежда до вярното пристанище.
