Altogether Quotes (page 4)

Konrad Lorenz quote: "The truth about an animal is far more exciting and altogether..."
The truth about an animal is far more exciting and altogether more beautiful than all the myths woven about it. Konrad Lorenz
Indeed, the case very often such, by the seeming calls of Providence, as made it extremely difficult for him to do more than his strength would admit of. Yea, his circumstances and the business of his mission...were such that great fatigues and hardships were altogether inevitable. Jonathan Edwards
Watch them clamber, these swift monkeys! They clamber over one another and thus drag one another into the mud and the depth. They all want to get to the throne: that is their madness? as if happiness sat on the throne. Often, mud sits on the throne? and often the throne also on mud. Mad they all appear to me, clambering monkeys and overardent. Foul smells their idol, the cold monster: foul, they smell to me altogether, these idolators. Friedrich Nietzsche
The will of God is sweet tonight, altogether ‘good and acceptable and perfect.’ The considerate love of the Lord Jesus for us seems such a kind thing now. I know it has always been so, but somehow I didn’t see how wise it was when it didn’t seem kind… Remind me of this when I cannot regard His love as considerate some time. Jim Elliot
I renounce the higher harmony altogether. It's not worth the tears of that one tortured child who... prayed.. with... unexpiated tears to 'dear, kind God! Fyodor Dostoevsky
T. S. Eliot quote: "A prose that is altogether alive demands something of the..."
A prose that is altogether alive demands something of the reader that the ordinary novel reader is not prepared to give. T. S. Eliot
Just because things happen slow doesn't mean you'll be ready for them. If they happened fast, you'd be alert for all kinds of suddenness, aware that speed was trump. "Slow" works in an altogether different principle, on the deceptive impression that there's plenty of time to prepare, which conceals the central fact, that no matter how slow things go, you'll always be slower. Richard Russo
She is convinced that when language dies, out of carelessness, disuse, indifference and absence of esteem, or killed by fiat, not only she herself, but all users and makers are accountable for its demise. In her country children have bitten their tongues off and use bullets instead to iterate the voice of speechlessness, of disabled and disabling language, of language adults have abandoned altogether as a device for grappling with meaning, providing guidance, or expressing love. Toni Morrison
Not altogether a fool," said G., "but then he's a poet, which I take to be only one remove from a fool."True," said Dupin, after a long and thoughtful whiff from his meerschaum, "although I have been guilty of certain doggerel myself. Edgar Allan Poe
Puddleglum,' they've said, 'You're altogether too full of bobance and bounce and high spirits. You've got to learn that life isn't all fricasseed frogs and ell pie. You want something to sober you down a bit. We're only saying it for your own good, Puddleglum.' That's what they say. Now a job like this --a journey up north just as winter's beginning looking for a prince that probably isn't there, by way of ruined city nobody's ever seen-- will be just the thing. If that doesn't steady a chap,... C. S. Lewis
J. M. Barrie quote: "Let no one who loves be called altogether unhappy. Even love..."
Let no one who loves be called altogether unhappy. Even love unreturned has its rainbow. J. M. Barrie
Simone de Beauvoir quote: "I was made for another planet altogether. I mistook the way."
I was made for another planet altogether. I mistook the way. Simone de Beauvoir
I always know it's Sunday because I wake up feeling apologetic. That's one of the cool things about being a Catholic . . . it's a multifaceted experience. If you lose the faith, chances are you'll keep the guilt, so it isn't as if you've been skunked altogether. Janet Evanovich
Gilbert K. Chesterton quote: "Lying in bed would be an altogether supreme experience if one..."
Lying in bed would be an altogether supreme experience if one only had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Seeing the woman as she was made them remember the envy they had stored up from other times. so they chewed up the back parts of their minds and swallowed with relish. They made burning statements with questions, and killing tools out of laughs. It was mass cruelty. A mood come alive. Words walking without masters; walking altogether like harmony in a song. (2) Zora Neale Hurston
