A word after a word after a word is power. Margaret Atwood
Of course after the fight you want to make sure that you're okay and so is the other guy, it's a brotherhood in there, so you want to make sure everyone is okay after the war is over. Alexis Arguello
The question is the morning after. What sort of Iraq do we wake up to after the bombing? What happens in the region? What impact could it have? These are questions leaders I have spoken to have posed. Kofi Annan
M. H. Abrams quote: "It's amazing how, age after age, in country after country, and..."
It's amazing how, age after age, in country after country, and in all languages, Shakespeare emerges as incomparable. M. H. Abrams
How long your closet held a whiff of you, Long after hangers hung austere and bare. I would walk in and suddenly the true. Sharp sweet sweat scent controlled the air. And life was in that small still living breath. Where are you? since so much of you is here, Your unique odour quite ignoring death. My hands reach out to touch, to hold what's dear. And vital in my longing empty arms. But other clothes fill up the space, your space, And scent on scent send out strange false alarms. Not of your... Madeleine L'Engle
P. D. James quote: "People were excited by violence. What, after all, was the..."
People were excited by violence. What, after all, was the sexual act but a voluntarily endured assault, a momentary death? P. D. James
Isabel Allende quote: "Silence before being born, silence after death: life is..."
Silence before being born, silence after death: life is nothing but noise between two unfathomable silences. Isabel Allende

I'm against the picture of the artist as a starry-eyed visionary not really in control or knowing what he does. I'd almost prefer the word 'craftsman'. He's like one of those old-fashioned ship builders who conceived the build of the boat in their mind and after that touched every single piece that went into the boat. William Golding
He saw very clearly how all his life led only to this moment and all after led to nowhere at all. He felt something cold and soulless enter him like another being and he imagined that it smiled malignly and he had no reason to believe that it would ever leave. Cormac McCarthy
Nicholas Sparks quote: "That's good. And speaking of spelling, tell me -- do you wrap..."
That's good. And speaking of spelling, tell me -- do you wrap your head in a towel after you shower? Nicholas Sparks
We fall back into silence. I look around XO Cafe and notice that chatter happens mostly at tables where the diners are young and hip. The older couples, the ones sporting wedding bands that wink with their silverware, eat without the pepper of conversation. Is it because they are so comfortable, they already know what the other is thinking? Or is it because after a certain point, there is simply nothing left to say? Jodi Picoult
In general, one's memories of any period must necessarily weaken as one moves away from it. One is constantly learning new facts, and old ones have to drop out to make way for them. At twenty I could have written the history of my schooldays with an accuracy which would be quite impossible now. But it can also happen that one's memories grow sharper after a long lapse of time, because one is looking at the past with fresh eyes and can isolate and, as it were, notice facts which previously... George Orwell
A woman can only become a man’s friend in three stages: first she’s an agreeable acquaintance, then a mistress and only after that a friend. Anton Chekhov
We are not living in a world where all roads are radii if a circle and where all, if followed long enough, will therefore draw gradually nearer and finally meet at the centre: rather in a world where every road, after a few miles, forks into two, and each of those into two again, and at each fork you must make a decision. C. S. Lewis
