Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4) QUOTES

1 " ¡Diversidad! ¿Puede creerlo? No podías ascender si no eras una lesbiana nigeriana con una abuela navajo. Había llegado la hora de que los listillos blancos se fueran al carajo. Es una puta vergüenza lo que le está pasando a este país. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)

2 " Few behaviors of other people are more irritating than those that display our own faults in an unattractive way. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)

3 " He was all too aware of how one's perceptions can start lining up to support a particular conclusion. Once a pattern begins to take shape, however erroneous it might be, the mind unconsciously favors any data points that support it and discounts any that don't. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)

4 " The truth was that a complex murder case attracted his attention and curiosity like nothing else on earth. He could make up reasons for it. He could say it was all about justice. About rectifying an imbalance in the scheme of things. About standing up for those who had been struck down. About a quest for truth. But there were other times when he considered it nothing but high-stakes puzzle-solving, an obsessive-compulsive drive to fit all the loose pieces together. An intellectual game, a contest of mind and will. A playing field on which he could excel. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)

5 " Carl politika için yaratılmış bir adamdı. Melek gibi gülümserdi ama ruhunu şeytana satmıştı. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)

6 " La culpa es un doloroso deseo de armonía, una necesidad de compensar por una infracción propia, de restablecer el equilibrio, la coherencia. La coherencia entre lo que se cree y cómo se actúa. Cuando mis acciones son incoherentes con mis valores, creo una brecha, una fuente de tensión. La brecha crea incomodidad. Consciente o inconscientemente, intentamos cerrar la brecha. Buscamos la paz mental que nos proporcionará cerrar esa brecha, compensar por la infracción. "

― John Verdon , Peter Pan Must Die (Dave Gurney, #4)
