“You can call me Anna,” she said, sternly. “Is that your real name?” “Of course not.” “Then I'll call you Louise instead. I already know somebody named Anna. It's too confusing.”
“Since it has pleased God to endue us with some capacity of reason, to the end we may not, like brutes, be servilely subject and enslaved to the laws common to both, but that we should by judgment and a voluntary liberty apply ourselves to them, we ought, indeed, something to yield to the simple authority of nature, but not suffer ourselves to be tyrannically hurried away and transported by her; reason alone should have the conduct of our inclinations. I, for my part, have a strange disgust for those propensions that are started in us without the mediation and direction of the judgment.”

“Algún día, cuando hayan pasado los años y crecido mis hijos; cuando de nuevo esta casa recobre su silencio y los libros llenen todas sus paredes sin que nos digan nada; cuando no quedemos en el mundo más que tú y yo, entonces recordaremos con nostalgia este día hecho de casi nada. Este día que olvidaremos sin duda mañana mismo, porque no fue en absoluto extraordinario, sino parecido a un día como otro. Pero lleno de una dorada luz, de unos niños pequeños que gritan e interrumpen, de la ilusión de meter nuevos libros en casa, de las tareas corrientes como prepararles los baños o leerles un cuento. Lleno de ti y de mí, que nos pensamos aún llenos de tanta vida.”
