“Me gustan los ordenadores. Me gusta saber que cuando algo no funciona puedes apagar y encender de nuevo el ordenador; es una solución mágica. Creo que no estaría mal que ocurriera lo mismo con las personas, que cuando no entendieras a alguien, cuando algo fuera realmente extrano, pudieras reiniciar a esa persona, apagarla y encenderla de nuevo”
― Albert Espinosa, The Yellow World

“A good speech is like a woman's skirt: short enough to hold your attention, long enough to cover the subject”
― Jonathan Tropper, This is Where I Leave You

“Och vet du vad jag är mest rädd för? Att det ska visa att jag har anpassat mig så mycket i livet att jag har förlorat det som är jag”
― Sara Kadefors, Borta bäst

“Hi there...Let me ask you a question...How would you find a needle in a haystack?"

The first-grader pauses, pensive, tugging on the green yarn around her neck. She's really thinking this over. Tiny gears are turning; she's twisting her fingers together, pondering. It's cute. Finally she looks up and says gravely, "I would ask the hays to find it."
...
Yes, of course. She's a genius!
...
It's so simple. Of course, of course. The first-grader is right. It's easy to find a needle in a haystack! Ask the hays to find it!”
