Always Quotes (page 141)

We all nourish truth with our tongues not in sour-batter words that never take shape nor line-driven stories bent to skirt the edgeof our great exhaustion, desire, and doubt.

An impractical man--which he not only seems to be, but really is--will always be unreliable and unpredictable in his dealings with others.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld quote: "We are almost always bored by just those whom we must not find..."

I have friends whose society is delightful to me; they are persons of all countries and of all ages; distinguished in war, in council, and in letters; easy to live with, always at my command. Petrarch
There are moments when people love crime," Alyosha said pensively."Yes, yes! You've spoken my own thought, they love it, they all love it, and love it always, not just at 'moments.' You know, it's as if at some point they all agreed to lie about it, and have been lying about it ever since. They all say they hate what's bad, but secretly they all love it. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Age has given me the gift of me, it just gave me what I was always longing for, which was to get to be the woman I've already dreamt of being. Which is somebody who can do rest and do hard work and be a really constant companion, a constant tender-hearted wife to myself. Anne Lamott
George Orwell quote: "Since that time, war had literally been continuous, though..."
Since that time, war had literally been continuous, though strictly speaking it had not always been the same war. George Orwell
He'd always known that the world was an interesting place, and his imagination had peopled it with pirates and bandits and spies and astronauts and similar. But he'd also had a nagging suspicion that, when you seriously got right down to it, they were all just things in books and didn't properly exist anymore. Terry Prachett
Victor Hugo quote: "Love each other dearly always. There is scarcely anything else..."
Love each other dearly always. There is scarcely anything else in the world but that: to love one another. Victor Hugo

There was no evidence. But that week I had become a full-fledged bleeder and was still absorbed by this first change in myself that I had ever noticed. The click and buzz of my synapses kept making the same connection. If you can change, you can also end. Death had always been a theory to me. Now I... Katherine Dunn
