Richards recordaba el día (aquel glorioso y terrible día) en que vio los aviones estrellarse contra las torres, la imagen repetida en interminables bucles. Las bolas de fuego, los cuerpos que caían, la licuefacción de miles de millones de toneladas de acero y hormigón, las nubes de polvo gigantescas. La inyección de dinero del nuevo milenio, el reality show definitivo, las veinticuatro horas del día, los siete días de la semana. Richards estaba en Yakarta cuando sucedió, ni siquiera podía recordar por qué. Había pensado en aquel mismo momento..., no, lo había sentido en los huesos. Había sido una certeza pura, inquebrantable. Había que dar a los militares algo con lo que entretenerse, o empezarían a dispararse entre ellos. Pero a partir de aquel día, la antigua forma de hacer las cosas terminó. La guerra (la guerra real, la que se libraba desde hacía miles de años y seguiría durante otros miles de años más), la guerra entre Nosotros y Ellos, entre los Poseedores y los Desposeídos, entre mis Dioses y tus Dioses, fueran quienes fueran, la librarían hombres como Richards, hombres en cuyos rostros no te fijabas y de quienes luego te olvidabas, vestidos de camareros, taxistas o carteros, con silenciadores ocultos en la manga. La librarían madres jóvenes empujando cinco kilos de C-4 en cochecitos de bebé y colegialas que subirían al metro con frascos de gas sarín ocultos en sus mochilas de Hello Kitty. Se libraría desde el suelo de camionetas de reparto, habitaciones de hoteles anónimos cercanos a aeropuertos, y desde cuevas de las montañas en medio de ninguna parte. Se libraría en andenes de tren y cruceros, en centros comerciales, cines y mezquitas, en el campo y en la urbe, en la oscuridad y a plena luz del día. Se libraría en nombre de Alá, o del nacionalismo kurdo o los judíos, por Jesucristo o por los Yankees de Nueva York. (Los motivos no habían cambiado, y nunca cambiarían, pues todo se reducía, una vez eliminabas las chorradas, a los beneficios trimestrales de alguien y a quién debía sentarse dónde.) Pero ahora la guerra estaba por todas partes, hacía metástasis como un millón de células maníacas que corrían como locas por todo el planeta, y todo el mundo participaba en ella.

The Passage Quotes

Pasaule ir citāda. Pīters zināja ka tā ir; tomēr tā nelikās. Drīzāk pasaule šķita vēl vairāk tāda pati kā agrāk. Priekšā kā plaša, rāma jūra pletās sasalušie lauki; tepat bija neizmērojamais, zvaigžņotās debesis un mēness ar savu dzeltenīgo, smagu plakstu segto skatienu kā atbilde uz neviena neuzdotu jautājumu. Viss bija tāpat kā agrāk un būs tāpat ilgi pēc tam, kad viņu vairs nebūs, kad vairs nebūs ne viņu vārdu, ne atmiņu un viņi būs samalti laika pīšļos un aizpūsti vējā.

The Passage Quotes

They always come home.

Nothing lasts forever.” “Some things do.” “What kind of things?” “The things we like to remember. The love we’ve felt for people.

The Twelve Quotes

A thousand recollected lives were passing through her, a thousand thousand stories—of love and work, of parents and children, of duty and joy and grief. Beds slept in and meals eaten, and the bliss and pain of the body, and a view of summer leaves from a window on a morning it had rained; the nights of loneliness and the nights of love, the soul in its body’s keeping always longing to be known. She

The Passage Quotes

I should be exhausted, but I'm not. I'm much too keyed up to sleep. Probably it's myour imagination, but when I close my eyes and sit very still, I swear I can feel the baby inside me. Not moving, nothing like that, it's far too early. Just a kind of warm and hopeful presence, this new soul my body carries, waiting to be born into the world. I feel ... what's the word?Happy. I feel happy.Shots outside. I am going to look.*****END OF DOCUMENT*****Recovered at Roswell Site ("Roswell Massacre")

Holy cliffhanger batman Quotes The Passage Quotes

Al principio, intentó entablar conversación con los hombres que le llevaban la comida, y un pijama limpio y unas zapatillas cada dos días. Les preguntó cómo se llamaban. Pero nadie se había dignado en decir ni una palabra. Sus movimientos eran pesados, torpes e imprecisos, su expresión aturdida y falta de curiosidad, como los muertos vivientes de una película antigua. Cadáveres que se congregaban ante una granja, gimiendo y trastabillando, con los uniformes andrajosos de sus vidas olvidadas. Le gustaban esas películas cuando era adolescente, sin darse cuenta de lo mucho que reflejaban la realidad. ¿Qué eran los muertos vivientes, pensó Wolgast, sino una metáfora del descabellado desfile de la madurez?

So, at the last, a story.

Story Quotes The City of Mirrors Quotes

We got close enough that we could see the train, down below us. We were on a bridge, the rails running under it. I tried to follow its length with my eyes but I couldn't, that's how long it was. It seemed to stretch forever, a hundred cars long. [...] The thing was, the train didn't stop. Not for anything. Time to time we'd hear a great big boom and the car would shake like a leaf in the wind but still we kept right on. One day the woman left the car and went back to help with some of the other children and came back all crying. I heard her tell the man that the other cars behind us were gone. They'd built the train so that if the jumps got into a car, they could leave it behind, and those were the booms we'd heard, one car after another falling away. I didn't want to think about those cars and the children inside them, and to this day I don't. [...] it was a lucky thing he hadn't been in one of the cars at the back, because by the time we arrived there weren't more than three, and two mostly empty.

Wolgast recalled when he’d come down here with his friends to buy candy and comic books. Back then, a spinning wire rack had stood by the front door: Tales from the Crypt, Fantastic Four, the Dark Knight series, Wolgast’s favorite.

The Passage Quotes

She thought she’d hate it, this huge, faceless city far from home, but the opposite was true: she felt nothing but relief. The heedless sprawl of Denver, its chaotic snarl of subdivisions and freeways; the openness of the high plains and the indifferent mountains; the way people talked to each other, easily, without pretense, and the fact that nearly everyone was from somewhere else: exiles, like her.

The Passage Quotes

A baby wasn’t an idea, as love was an idea. A baby was a fact. It was a being with a mind and a nature, and you could feel about it any way you liked, but a baby wouldn’t care. Just by existing, it demanded that you believe in a future: the future it would crawl in, walk in, live in. A baby was a piece of time; it was a promise you made that the world made back to you. A baby was the oldest deal there was, to go on living.

The Twelve Quotes

Peter gazed at the destruction. It was the cities that always turned his thoughts to what the world had once been. The buildings and houses, the cars and streets: all had once teemed with people who had gone about their lives knowing nothing of the future, that one day history would stop.

To know and be known: that was the final desire, the heart of love.

Love Quotes / The City of Mirrors Quotes

If you are writing any book about the end of the world, what you are really writing about is what’s worth saving about it.

The war—the real war, the one that had been going on for a thousand years and would go on for a thousand thousand more—the war between Us and Them, between the Haves and the Have-Nots, between my gods and your gods, whoever you are—would be fought by men like Richards: men with faces you didn’t notice and couldn’t remember, dressed as busboys or cab drivers or mailmen, with silencers tucked up their sleeves. It would be fought by young mothers pushing ten pounds of C-4 in baby strollers and schoolgirls boarding subways with vials of sarin hidden in their Hello Kitty backpacks. It would be fought out of the beds of pickup trucks and blandly anonymous hotel rooms near airports and mountain caves near nothing at all; it would be waged on train platforms and cruise ships, in malls and movie theaters and mosques, in country and in city, in darkness and by day. It would be fought in the name of Allah or Kurdish nationalism or Jews for Jesus or the New York Yankees—the subjects hadn’t changed, they never would, all coming down, after you’d boiled away the bullshit, to somebody’s quarterly earnings report and who got to sit where—but now the war was everywhere, metastasizing like a million maniac cells run amok across the planet, and everyone was in it.

The Passage Quotes

Everything got blended together. A sensation like pain--only worse, because it wasn't a pain in your body; the pain was in your mind and your mind was you. You were pain itself.
