ANEXO I
SELECCIN DE FRAGMENTOS DE AUTORES
"I don't know - I don't know," she said, blowing her nose, sitting down in a chair that
immediately began to rock and comfort her. "Maybe I don't have enough to do. Maybe I
have time to think too much. Why don't we shut the whole house off for a few days and
take a vacation?"
Ray Bradbury, The Veldt
The pale young gentlemans nose had stained my trousers, and I tried to wash out that
evidence of my guilt in the dead night. I had cut my knuckles against the pale young
gentlemans teeth
Great Expectations, Charles Dickens
Go ahead, Yell your goddam head off. Fine, Old Maurice said, Want your parents to know
you spent the night outside? High class kid like you?. He was pretty sharp, in his crumby
way. He really was.
The Catcher in the Rye, J. D. Salinger.
Mr. Bennet, how can you abuse your own children in such a way? You take delight in
vexing me. You have no compassion on my poor nerves.
You mistake me, my dear. I have a high respect for your nerves. They are my old friends.
I have heard you mention them with consideration these twenty years at least.
Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen
