Alive Quotes (page 7)

I could not bear the deep freeze settling around my bones at the thought that yet another attempt to get out of my life alive would end in disappointment. Time became palpable and viscous. Every minute, every second, every nanosecond, wrapped around my spine so that my nerves tightened and ached. I faded into abstraction. A self-generated narcosis created a painful blank where my mind used to be. Elizabeth Wurtzel
How can we be alive and not wonder about the stories we knit together this place we call the world? Without stories our universe is merely rocks and clouds and lava and blackness. It's a village scraped raw by warm waters leaving not a trace of what existed before. Doug Coupland
Gabriel Garcia Marquez quote: "I was on the verge of ruin but well-compensated by the miracle..."
I was on the verge of ruin but well-compensated by the miracle of still being alive at my age. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
You are an ocean in a drop of dew, all the universes in a thin sack of blood. What are these pleasures then, these joys, these worldsthat you keep reaching for, hoping they will make you more alive? Rumi
Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: "Man is a piece of the universe made alive"
Man is a piece of the universe made alive Ralph Waldo Emerson
By degrees during the afternoon he warmed and became alive, and only towards evening, on his good days, was he productive, active and, sometimes, aglow with joy. Herman Hesse
Anyway, if you stop tellin' people it's all sorted out afer they're dead, they might try sorting it all out while they're alive. Terry Prachett

In the morning it was morning and I was still alive. Charles Bukowski

Words are animals, alive with a will of their own Carl Jung
Not my idea of God, but God. Not my idea of H., but H. Yes, and also not my idea of my neighbour, but my neighbour. For don't we often make this mistake as regards people who are still alive -- who are with us in the same room? Talking and acting not to the man himself but to the picture -- almost the prcis -- we've made of him in our own minds? And he has to depart from it pretty widely before we even notice the fact. C. S. Lewis
Vincent Van Gogh quote: "The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting."
The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting. Vincent Van Gogh
What we see, we seeand seeing is changingthe light that shrivels a mountainand leaves a man alive. Heartbeat of the pulsarheart sweating through my body. The radio impulsepouring in from Taurus I am bombarded yet I stand. I have been standing all my life in thedirect path of a battery of signalsthe most accurately transmitted mostuntranslatable language of the universe. I am a galactic cloud so deep so invo-luted that a light wave could take 15years to travel through me And... Adrienne Rich
Until it is kindled by a spirit as flamingly alive as the onewhich gave it birth a book is dead to us. Words divested of their magic are but dead hieroglyphs. Henry Miller
Is it possible to fix love and make it stand still in time? Well, we can try, but that would turn our lives into a hell. I haven't been married for more than 20 years to the same person, because neither she nor I have remained the same. That's why our relationship is more alive than ever. I don't expect her to behave as she did when we first met. Nor does she want me to be the person I was when I found her. Love is beyond time, or, rather, love is both time and space, but all focused on... Paulo Coelho
When I looked, I knew I might never again see so much of the earth so beautiful, the beautiful being something you know added to something you see, in a whole that is different from the sum of its parts. What I saw might have been just another winter scene, although an impressive one. But what I knew was that the earth underneath was alive and that by tomorrow, certainly by the day after, it would be all green again. So what I saw because of what I knew was a kind of death with the marvellous... Norman Maclean
