Awake Quotes (page 10)

To feel forever its soft fall and swell, Awake for ever in a sweet unrest, Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath, And so live ever-or else swoon in death. John Keats
Many nights he lay there dreaming awake of secret cafs in Mont Marte, where ivory women delved in romantic mysteries with diplomats and soldiers of fortune, while orchestras played Hungarian waltzes and the air was thick and exotic with intrigue and moonlight and adventure. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Cormac McCarthy quote: "What he could bear in the waking world he could not by night..."
What he could bear in the waking world he could not by night and he sat awake for fear the dream would return. Cormac McCarthy
Dream or nightmare, we have to live our experience as it is, and we have to live it awake. We live in a world which is penetrated through and through by science and which is both whole and real. We cannot turn it into a game simple by taking sides. Jacob Bronowski
We should not sleep to recover the energy expended when awake but rather wake occasionally to defecate the unwanted energy that sleep engenders. Flann O'Brien
E. B. White quote: "Once in everyone's life there is apt to be a period when he is..."
Once in everyone's life there is apt to be a period when he is fully awake, instead of half-asleep. E. B. White
Big Brother isn't watching. He's singing and dancing. He's pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother's busy holding your attention every moment you're awake. He's making sure you're always distracted. He's making sure you're fully absorbed. He's making sure your imagination withers. Until it's as useful as your appendix. He's making sure your attention is always filled. And this being fed, it's worse than being watched. With the world always filling you, no one has to worry about what's in... Chuck Palahniuk
Emma was no asleep, she was pretending to be asleep; and, while he was dozing off at her side, she lay awake, dreaming other dreams. Gustave Flaubert
There have been times recently, since the begining of our troubles, when the site of David awake active, conscious, walking and talking has made me want to retch, so acute is my loathing of him. Nick Hornby
Gerard Way quote: "I see you lying next to me, with words I thought i'd never..."
I see you lying next to me, with words I thought i'd never speak, awake and unafraid, asleep or dead? Gerard Way
Men speak of dreaming as if it were a phenomenon of night and sleep. They should know better. All results achieved by us are self-promised, and all self-promises are made in dreams awake. Dreaming is the relief of labor, the wine that sustains us in act. We learn to love labor, not for itself, but for the opportunity it furnishes for dreaming, which is the great under-monotone of real life, unheard, unnoticed, because of its constancy. Living is dreaming. Only in the graves are there no dreams. Lew Wallace
Henry David Thoreau quote: "Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day..."
Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star. Henry David Thoreau
Take out another notebook, pick up another pen, and just write, just write, just write. In the middle of the world, make one positive step. In the center of chaos, make one definitive act. Just write. Say yes, stay alive, be awake. Just write. Just write. Just write. Natalie Goldberg
James Joyce quote: "History, Stephen said, is a nightmare from which I am trying..."
History, Stephen said, is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake. James Joyce
One day at a time. You rise, you eat, you bathe, and you talk to the few people you can tolerate while feeling so wretched. Over time, it hurts a little less. Then a little less. And so on...Until one morning, you will awake and realize the pain is only a memory. It will always be with you, but it will eventually lack the power to cripple you. Sylvia Day
