Back Again Quotes (page 3)

When you have lived as long as I, you will see that every human being has his shell, and that you must take the shell into acount. By the shell I mean the whole envelope of circumstances. There is no such thing as an isolated man or woman; we are each of us made up of a cluster of apurtenances. What do you call one's self? Where does it begin? Where does it end? It overflows into everythng tht belongs to us - and then flows back again. (...) One's self - for other people - is one's expression... Henry James
My inner chemistry had been hijacked by a mad scientist, who poured the fizzy, volatile contents of my heart from a test tube marked SOBER REALITY into another labeled SUNNY DELUSION, and back again, faster and faster, until the floor of my life was slick with spillage. Jonathan Lethem
Agatha Christie quote: "She's a gipsy really. That's why she can't stay in houses. She..."
She's a gipsy really. That's why she can't stay in houses. She wanders away and comes back again. Agatha Christie
Haruki Murakami quote: "The gears of life had moved ahead a notch with a loud..."
The gears of life had moved ahead a notch with a loud ker-chunk, and Junpei knew that they would never turn back again. Haruki Murakami
Charlotte Bronte quote: "I am strangely glad to get back again to you: and wherever you..."
I am strangely glad to get back again to you: and wherever you are is my home--my only home. Charlotte Bronte
The real alchemy consists in being able to turn gold back again into something else; and that's the secret that most of your friends have lost. Edith Wharton
There were now and then, though rarely, the hours that brought the welcome shock, pulled down the walls and brought me back again from my wanderings to the living heart of the world. Sadly and yet deeply moved, I set myself to recall the last of these experiences. It was at a concert of lovely old music. After two of three notes of the piano the door was opened of a sudden to the other world. I sped through heaven and saw God at work. I suffered holy pains. I dropped all my defenses and was... Herman Hesse
You should think about your character. Know where you are changing, how you will be changed, what cannot be changed back again. Amy Tan
Virgil quote: "It is easy to go down into Hell...; but to climb back again,..."
It is easy to go down into Hell...; but to climb back again, to retrace one's steps to the upper air---there's the rub... Virgil
Thomas Wolfe quote: "O lost, And by the wind grieved, Ghost, Come back again."
O lost, And by the wind grieved, Ghost, Come back again. Thomas Wolfe
Most of us love a non-self, or something extrinsic and apart from our inner life; but a mother's love during the time she is a flesh-and-blood ciborium is not for a non-self but for one that is her very self, a perfect example of charity and love which hardly perceives a separation. Motherhood then becomes a kind of priesthood. She brings God to man by preparing the flesh in which the soul will be implanted; she brings man to God in offering the child back again to the Creator. Fulton J. Sheen
The higher that the monkey can climb, the more he shows his tail. Call no man happy till he dies, there's no milk at the bottom of the pail. God builds a church and the devil builds a chapel, like the thistles that are growing 'round the trunk of a tree. All the good in the world you could put inside a thimble, and still have room for you and me. If there's one thing you can say about mankind, there's nothing kind about man. You can drive out nature with a pitchfork, but it always coming... Tom Waits
When I dance, I dance; when I sleep, I sleep; yes, and when I walk alone in a beautiful orchard, if my thoughts drift to far-off matters for some part of the time for some other part I lead them back again to the walk, the orchard, to the sweetness of this solitude, to myself. Michel de Montaigne
I do not find that I grow any older. Being arrived at seventy, and considering that by traveling further in the same road I should probably be led to the grave, I stopped short, turned about, and walked back again; which having done these four years, you may now call me sixty-six. Advise those old friends of ours to follow my example; keep up your spirits, and that will keep up your bodies. Benjamin Franklin
Richard Bach quote: "Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts..."
Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight - how to get from shore to food and back again Richard Bach
