Always Quotes (page 459)

There is always the temptation in life to diddle around making itsy-bitsy friends and meals and journeys for years on end. It is all so self conscience, so apparently moral...But I won't have it. The world is wilder than that in all directions, more dangerous...more extravagant and bright. We are...raising tomatoes when we should be raising Cain, or Lazarus. Annie Dillard
I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain. One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night-filled mountain, in itself, forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy. Albert Camus
Graham Greene quote: "So it always is: when you escape to a desert the silence..."
So it always is: when you escape to a desert the silence shouts in your ear. Graham Greene
John Locke quote: "New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed,..."
New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not common. John Locke
David Lynch quote: "There's always fear of the unknown where there's mystery"
There's always fear of the unknown where there's mystery David Lynch
One cannot always know what children are thinking. Children are hard to understand, especially when careful training has accustomed them to obedience, and experience has made them cautious in their conversation with their teachers. Will you not draw from this the fine maxim that one should not scold children too much, but should make them trustful, so that they will not conceal their stupidities from us? Catherine II
Harper Lee quote: "Things are always better in the morning."
Things are always better in the morning. Harper Lee
Live! Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new sensations. Be afraid of nothing. Oscar Wilde
The need to be right all the time is the biggest bar to new ideas. It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong than to be always right by having no ideas at all. Edward de Bono
I was cured in my new infamy of all the tired wisdom of age. I would never weary into that tired state again---I swore to myself, I would always be this raw, wet child hereafter... Clive Barker
All the repetitions in the pattern were superficial; the moment was always new. It had to be lived, and then the next moment embraced as it arrived. Kim Stanley Robinson
Arthur Schopenhauer quote: "The life of every individual is really always a tragedy, but..."
The life of every individual is really always a tragedy, but gone through in detail, it has the character of a comedy. Arthur Schopenhauer
…Weren’t you always distracted by expectation, as if every event announced a beloved? (Where can you find a place to keep her, with all the huge strange thoughts inside you going and coming and often staying all night.)… Rainer Maria Rilke
When it came to hiding, even Gwin had nothing to teach Dustfinger. A strange sense of curiosity had always driven him to explore the hidden, forgotten corners of this and any other place, and all that knowledge had now come in useful. Cornelia Funke
Apparently Brooklyn needn't always push itself to be something else, something conscious and anxious, something pointed toward Manhattan.... Brooklyn might sometimes also be pleased, as here on Flatbush, to be its grubby, enduring self. Jonathan Lethem
