Above Quotes (page 15)

More than a catbird hates a cat, Or a criminal hates a clue, Or the Axis hates the United States, That's how much I love you. I love you more than a duck can swim, And more than a grapefruit squirts, I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore, And more than a toothache hurts. As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea, Or a juggler hates a shove, As a hostess detests unexpected guests, That's how much you I love. I love you more than a wasp can sting, And more than the subway jerks, I love you as... Ogden Nash
Edith Hamilton quote: "It is by our power to suffer, above all, that we are of more..."
It is by our power to suffer, above all, that we are of more value than the sparrows. Edith Hamilton
Do you think its possible to live without wanting to put your name on your paintings? To belong to a group so securely you don't need to rise above it? Barbara Kingsolver
There is more in you of good than you know, child of the kindly West. Some courage and some wisdom, blended in measure. If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. J. R. R. Tolkien
I refuse to turn to theology to justify the life or redeem it. There is a question always of the connection to the eternal. I say to myself above all, keep alive your conviction that there are sacred elements in the life in the practice of the life that must be respected. But the conviction in the existence of the sacred does not necessarily imply that you need to believe in a creator, because we are the ones that made the sacred. Stanley Kunitz
Elizabeth Barrett Browning quote: "The little cares that fretted me, I lost them yesterday. Among..."
The little cares that fretted me, I lost them yesterday. Among the fields above the sea, Among the winds at play. Elizabeth Barrett Browning
J. K. Rowling quote: "Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all..."
Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love. J. K. Rowling
Voltaire quote: "Every man is a creature of the age in which he lives and few..."
Every man is a creature of the age in which he lives and few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of the time. Voltaire
I was born in 1927, the only child of middle-class parents, both English, and themselves born in the grotesquely elongated shadow, which they never rose sufficiently above history to leave, of that monstrous dwarf Queen Victoria. John Fowles
An evil man is a saint of the future. See good in everything. Destroy the evil-finding quality. Develop the good-finding quality. Rise above good and evil. Sivananda
I settled into a contented routine of working, spending my free time with Veronica and, back in my student room, wanking explosively to fantasies of her splayed beneath me or arched above me. Daily intimacy made me proud of knowing about make-up, clothes policy, the feminine razor, and the mystery and consequences of a woman’s periods. I found myself envying this regular reminder of something so wholly female and defining, so connected to the great cycle of nature. Julian Barnes
William Shakespeare quote: "Knowing I lov'd my books, he furnish'd me From mine own..."
Knowing I lov'd my books, he furnish'd me From mine own library with volumes that I prize above my dukedom. William Shakespeare
I...have always known that my destiny was, above all, a literary destiny? that bad things and some good things would happen to me, but that, in the long run, all of it would be convertedinto words. Particularly the bad things, since happiness does not need to be transformed: happiness is its own end. Jorge Luis Borges
Jacques Derrida quote: "What cannot be said above all must not be silenced but written."
What cannot be said above all must not be silenced but written. Jacques Derrida
Max, you're acting like a child, the Voice said. You're above rebelling against your fate just to rebel. You've got a date with destiny. Don't be late."I brushed some hair out of my eyes. Is that a movie quote? Or is it an actual date? I don't remember destiny asking me. I never even gave destiny my phone number. James Patterson
