Am Quotes (page 150)

My fine visions are all very well, but I must not forget they are absolutely unreal. I have a rosy sky and a green flowery Eden in my brain; but without, I am perfectly aware, lies at my feet a rough tract to travel, and around me gather black tempests to encounter. Charlotte Bronte

I am hungry to be interrupted. For ever and ever amen Stevie Smith
Life goes on. It doesn't go on. Yes, yes, I know, all we want in the end, we living, breathing creatures (am I still one of them?) is life.

I am so fed up and joyless that not only have I nothing to fill my soul, I cannot even conceive of anything that could possibly satisfy it - alas, not even the bliss of heaven. Soren Kierkegaard
Franz Kafka quote: "I am away from home and must always write home, even if any..."
I am away from home and must always write home, even if any home of mine has long since floated away into eternity. Franz Kafka
... and she held out a pretty gold ring. 'Put it,' she said, 'on the fourth finger of my left hand, and I am yours and you are mine; and we shall leave Earth and make our own Heaven yonder.' Charlotte Bronte
It must be that I am dreaming, and that I shall awaken in a moment to see that awful knife descending toward my heart- kiss me, dear, just once before I lose my dream forever."-Jane- Edgar Rice Burroughs
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "Such bees! Bilbo had never seen anything like them."If one..."
Such bees! Bilbo had never seen anything like them."If one were to sting me," He thought "I should swell up as big as I am! J. R. R. Tolkien
I have already thought it over,' said Rubashov. 'I reject your proposition. Logically, you may be right. But I have had enough of this kind of logic. I am tired and I don't want to play this game anymore. Be kind enough to have me taken back to my cell. Arthur Koestler
Somewhere you are holding the person I love," the boy said. "So, when I look out over your sands, I am also looking at her. I want to return to her, and I need your help so that I can turn myself into the wind. Paulo Coelho
but love is not fashionable anymore, the poets have killed it. They wrote so much about it that nobody believed them, and I am not surprised. True love suffers, and is silent. I remember myself once-but no matter now. Romance is a thing of the past. Oscar Wilde
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "The awakened and knowing say: body I am entirely, and nothing..."
The awakened and knowing say: body I am entirely, and nothing else; and soul is only a word for something about the body. Friedrich Nietzsche
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "Hammer and tongs! I am so torn between rage and joy, that if I..."
Hammer and tongs! I am so torn between rage and joy, that if I do not burst, it will be a marvel! J. R. R. Tolkien
