Anything Quotes (page 86)

We did meet forty years ago. At that time we were both influenced by Whitman and I said, jokingly in part, 'I don't think anything can be done in Spanish, do you?' Neruda agreed, but we decided it was too late for us to write our verse in English. We'd have to make the best of a second-rate literature. Jorge Luis Borges

So I crossed to the left side of the highway and checked the feeling, and the feeling was good. It was a pleasant diaphragmal melting, with elements of diffused tactility, all this enhanced by the thought that nothing could be nearer... Vladimir Nabokov
Charles Spurgeon quote: "The only reason why anything virtuous or lively survives in us..."
The only reason why anything virtuous or lively survives in us is this, 'the LORD is there'" (Ez. 35:10) Charles Spurgeon

A perverse nature can be stimulated by anything. Any book can be used as a pornographic instrument, even a great work of literature if the mind that so uses it is off-balance. I once found a small boy masturbating in the presence of the Victorian steel-engraving in a family Bible. Anthony Burgess
Telling me I can do anything I want is like pulling the plug out of the bath and then telling the water it can go anywhere it wants. Try it, and see what happens. Nick Hornby
I've never had any intentions about anything. That's why I am where I am today, which is neither here nor there, in a literal sense. Edward Gorey
