Marianne Williamson Quotes

Marianne Williamson

What a good-for-nothing-fellow Charles is to bespeak the stockings - I hope he will be too hot all the rest of his life for it! - Jane Austen
After a sleepless night the body gets weaker, It becomes dear and not yours - and nobody's. Just like a seraph you smile to people. And arrows moan in the slow arteries. After a sleepless night the arms get weaker. And deeply equal to you are the friend and foe. Smells like Florence in the frost, and in each. Sudden sound is the whole rainbow. Tenderly light the lips, and the shadow's golden. Near the sunken eyes. Here the night has sparked. This brilliant likeness - and from the dark night.... Marina Tsvetaeva
I told him that if we doubted that we are demons in Hell, he should read The Mysterious Stranger, which Mark Twain wrote in 1898, long before the First World War (1914-1918). In the title story he proves to his own grim satisfaction, and to mine as well, that Satan and not God created the planet earth and "the damned human race." If you doubt that, read your morning paper. Never mind what paper. Never mind the date. Kurt Vonnegut
For years I had my hair parted down the middle in a ponytail, tucked down around the sides... Well, I went and cut the bangs, and I've been wearing them ever since. They say it's my trademark. Bettie Page

My prose is turgid, it just hasn't got any energy. Carol Ann Duffy
Just as one spoils the stomach by overfeeding and thereby impairs the whole body, so can one overload and choke the mind by giving it too much nourishment. For the more one reads the fewer are the traces left of what one has read; the mind is like a tablet that has been written over and over. Hence it is impossible to reflect; and it is only by reflection that one can assimilate what one has read. If one reads straight ahead without pondering over it later, what has been read does not take... Arthur Schopenhauer
Like the winds that we come we know not whence and blow whither soever they list, the forces of society are derived from an obscure and distant origin. They arise before the date of philosophy, from the instincts, not the speculations of men. Adam Ferguson
Margaret Atwood quote: "You're dead, Cordelia.'No I'm not.'Yes you are. You're dead...."
You're dead, Cordelia.'No I'm not.'Yes you are. You're dead. Lie down. Margaret Atwood
Samuel Butler quote: "To himself everyone is immortal; he may know that he is going..."
To himself everyone is immortal; he may know that he is going to die, but he can never know he is dead. Samuel Butler
Jean-Paul Sartre quote: "kutsal bir sektr laikletirildike, tanr yeniden ge ykselmeye..."

If you want to use a cliche you must take full responsibility for it yourself and not try to fob it off on anon., or on society. Lewis Thomas
Bo Jackson quote: "I am a firm believer in if you can't get it the old fashioned..."
I am a firm believer in if you can't get it the old fashioned way, you don't need it. Bo Jackson
He has the memory of a convict, the balls of a fireman, and the eyesight of a housebreaker. When there is crime to fight, Landsman tears around Sitka like a man with his pant leg caught on a rocket. It's like there's a film score playing behind him, heavy on the castanets. The problem comes in the hours when he isn't working, when his thoughts start blowing out the open window of his brain like pages from the blotter. Sometimes it takes a heavy paperweight to pin them down. Michael Chabon
Of course I do not regret the Bond days, I regret that sadly heroes in general are depicted with guns in their hands, and to tell the truth I have always hated guns and what they represent. Roger Moore
Bob Dylan quote: "Well, the future for me is already a thing of the past."
