- aristóteles y dante descubren los secretos del universo
- "and it seemed to me that dante's face was a map of the world. a world without any darkness, wow, a world without darkness. how beautiful was that?"
- "all this time i had been trying to figure out the secrets of the universe, the secrets of my own body, of my own heart. all of the answers had always been so close and yet i had always fought them without even knowing it. from the minute i'd met dante, i had fallen in love with him, i just didn't let myself know it, think it, feel it. we all fight our own private wars. as dante and i lay on our backs in the bed of my pickup and gazed out at the summer stars, i was free. imagine that. aristotle mendonza, a free man. i wasn't afraid anymore. i took dante's hand and held it. how could i have ever been ashamed of loving dante quintana?"
- turtles all the way down
- "we were looking at the same sky together, which is maybe more intimate than eye contact, anyway. i mean, anybody can look at you... it's quite rare to find somebody who can see the same world you see."
- "spirals grow infinitely small if the farther you follow them inward, but they also grow infinitely large the farther you follow them out."
