Ursula K. Le Guin quote: "When you light a candle, you also cast a shadow."
When you light a candle, you also cast a shadow. Ursula K. Le Guin
Erich Segal quote: "I was afraid of being rejected, yes. I was also afraid of..."
I was afraid of being rejected, yes. I was also afraid of being accepted for the wrong reasons. Erich Segal
I can concede that the government has no knowledge of the people, but I believe the people know less of the government. There are useless officials, evil, if you like, but there are also good ones, and these are not able to accomplish anything because they encounter an inert mass, the population that takes little part in matters that concern them. Jose Rizal
Conversion can also occur among those who already have the faith. Christians will become real Christians, with less faade and more foundation. Catastrophe will divide them from the world, force them to declare their basic loyalties; it will revive shepherds who shepherd rather than administrate, reverse the proportion of saints and scholars in favor of saints, create more reapers for the harvest, more pillars of fire for the lukewarm; it will make the rich see that real wealth is in the...

If I were to draw, I would apply myself only to studying the form of inanimate objects," I said somewhat imperiously, because I wanted to change the subjects and also because a natural inclination does truly lead me to recognise my moods in the motionless suffering of things. Italo Calvino
I feel despised there, for having so little money; also for once having had so much. I never actually had it, of course. Father had it, and then Richard. But money was imputed to me, the same way crimes are imputed to those who've simply been present at them. Margaret Atwood
Even the humblest Party member is expected to be competent, industrious, and even intelligent within narrow limits, but it is also necessary that he should be a credulous and ignorant fanatic whose prevailing moods are fear, hatred, adulation, and orgiastic triumph. In other words it is necessary that he should have the mentality appropriate to a state of war. It does not matter whether the war is actually happening, and, since no decisive victory is possible, it does not matter whether the... George Orwell
Inasmuch as I am a spiritual man, I do believe in God - I think that He created anorder for the world; I believe that, in constantly bombarding Him with requests for miracles, we're also asking that He unravel the fabric of the world. A world of continuous miracleswould be a cartoon, not a world. Doug Coupland
For any writer who wants to keep a journal, be alive to everything, not just to what you're feeling, but also to your pets, to flowers, to what you're reading. May Sarton
You made me confess the fears that I have. But I will tell you also what I do not fear. I do not fear to be alone or to be spurned for another or to leave whatever I have to leave. And I am not afraid to make a mistake, even a great mistake, a lifelong mistake and perhaps as long as eternity too. James Joyce
Everything with me is either worship and passion or pity and understanding. I hate rarely, though when I hate, I hate murderously. For example now, I hate the bank and everything connected with it. I also hate Dutch paintings, penis-sucking, parties, and cold rainy weather. But I am much more preoccupied with loving. Anais Nin
Democracy is also a single ideology, and, like all such templates, it has its limits. what works in a legislature might not work in a corporation Fareed Zakaria
There was also the fact that sending a penniless writer to get $135 worth of beer was? as Khrushchev said of Nixon? 'like sending a goat to tend the cabbage'. Hunter S. Thompson
Anne Rice quote: "He bent close to me, and suddenly kissed me, in a manner that..."
He bent close to me, and suddenly kissed me, in a manner that seemed entirely childlike and also a bit European. Anne Rice
The use of reason is to justify the obscure desires that move our conduct, impulses, passions, prejudices and follies, and also our fears. Joseph Conrad
