Bad Things Quotes (page 8)

Pain, loss and separation are inevitable on the path of love, and the only way of avoiding them is by deciding not to take that path at all. In order not to suffer, you have to renounce love. It was like putting out your own eyes in order not to see the bad things in life. Paulo Coelho
You know the bad thing about being a survivor... You keep having to get into difficult situations in order to show off your gift. Carrie Fisher
It is impossible that a town will not play a part in your life, it does not even make much difference whether you have more good or bad things to say of it, it draws your mind to it, by a mental law of gravitation. Isak Dinesen
One of the really bad things you can do to your writing is to dress up the vocabulary, looking for long words because you're maybe a little bit ashamed of your short ones. This is like dressing up a household pet in evening clothes. The pet is embarrassed and the person who committed this act of premeditated cuteness should be even more embarrassed. Stephen King
We'd sit with a big bowl of popcorn, wrapped together in a queen-size blanket, and would escape to a place where magic was ours for the taking, where men rescued the people they loved instead of abandoning them. A place where, no matter how bad things looked at that moment, there would always be a happy ending. Jodi Picoult
Sholom Aleichem quote: "No matter how bad things get, you've got to go on living, even..."
No matter how bad things get, you've got to go on living, even if it kills you. Sholom Aleichem
It is not a bad thing to settle for the Little Way, not the big search for the big happiness but the sad little happiness of drinks and kisses, a good little car and a warm deep thigh. Walker Percy
To represent a bad thing in its least offensive light is, doubtless, the most agreeable course for a writer of fiction to pursue; but is it the most honest, or the safest? Is it better to reveal the snares and pitfalls of like to the young and thoughtless traveller, or to cover them with branches and flowers? Oh, reader! if there were less of this delicate concealment of facts--this whispering "Peace, peace," when there is no peace, there would be less of sin and misery to the young of both... Anne Bronte
We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinner-time; keep back the tears and look a little pale about the lips, and in answer to inquiries say, "Oh, nothing!" Pride helps; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our hurts -- not to hurt others. George Eliot
Time talks behind our back. To our face it's friendly and logical, never hesitating to give more of itself. But when we're not looking, it steals our lives and says bad things about us to the parts of us it's stolen Jonathan Carroll
I say thank God for government waste. If government is doing bad things, it's only the waste that prevents the harm from being greater. Milton Friedman
Electronic books are a bad thing because they cannot be accumulated on shelves to remind you of your past, to impress your neighbors and colleagues, and to help prevent divorces thanks to the sheer bother of arguing over who owns what. J. P. Donleavy
L. M. Montgomery quote: "I have really done so few bad things that they have to keep..."
I have really done so few bad things that they have to keep harping on the old ones [.] L. M. Montgomery
...She said whenever you looked forward to anything pleasant you were sure to be more or less disappointed... that perhaps nothing ever came up to your expectations. Well perhaps that is true. But there is a good side to it too. The bad things don't always come up to your expectations either... they nearly always turn out ever so much better than you think. L. M. Montgomery

No matter how bad things get, you can still walk away. Chuck Palahniuk
