«Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome.»
«When he ran from a cop his transitions from accelerating walk to easy jog trot to brisk canter to headlong gallop to flogged-piston sprint were as distinct and as soberly in order as an automatic gearshift.»

«We live in a time of transition, an uneasy era which is likely to endure for the rest of this century.

«Nothing is secure but life, transition, the energizing spirit.»
«The most violent revolutions in an individual's beliefs leave most of his old order standing. Time and space, cause and effect, nature and history, and one's own biography remain untouched. New truth is always a go-between, a smoother-over of transitions. It marries old opinion to new fact so as ever to show a minimum of jolt, a maximum of continuity.»
