Because Of You Quotes (page 49)

You give us the pitching some of these clubs have and no one could touch us, but God has a way of not arranging that, because it's not as much fun. Sparky Anderson
You see, we find comfort in telling ourselves that the world could not exist without us, that it exists only inasmuch as we ourselves exist, inasmuch as we can represent it to ourselves. Death, infinite space, galaxies, all this is frightening, exactly because it transcends the limits of our perception. Vladimir Nabokov
Charlotte Bronte quote: "You are afraid of me, because I talk like a sphinx."
You are afraid of me, because I talk like a sphinx. Charlotte Bronte
You must understand that love never keeps a man from pursuing his Personal Legend. If he abandons that pursuit, it's because it wasn't a true love.. the love that speaks the language of the world. Paulo Coelho
Eugene O'Neill quote: "You said they had found the secret of happiness because they..."
You said they had found the secret of happiness because they had never heard that love can be a sin. Eugene O'Neill
You see, I have been at revaluing myself in the last few days. I may have some value to historians because I have destroyed a few things. The builder of your Cathedral is forgotten even now, but I, who burned it, may be remembered for a hundred years or so. And that may mean something or other about mankind. John Steinbeck
Vladimir Nabokov quote: "Because you took advantage of my disadvantage."
Because you took advantage of my disadvantage. Vladimir Nabokov
You think wars get started because some duke gets shot, or someone cuts off one’s ear, or someone’s sited their missiles in the wrong place. It’s not like that. That’s just well, just reasons, which haven’t got anything to do with it. What really causes wars is two sides that can’t stand the sight of one another and the pressure builds up and up and then anything will cause it. Anything at all. Terry Prachett
You'll often hear the phrase "science doesn't know everything." Well, of course it doesn't know everything. But just because science doesn't know everything doesn't mean that it knows nothing. Stephen Fry
Laurell K. Hamilton quote: "You did not bring down two of the royal guard in an..."
You did not bring down two of the royal guard in an unceremonious heap because the woman in the middle tripped. Laurell K. Hamilton
Nicholson Baker quote: "You can tell it's a poem because it's swimming in a little gel..."
You can tell it's a poem because it's swimming in a little gel pack of white space. That shows it's a poem. Nicholson Baker
Augusten Burroughs quote: "You must hang onto the scraps of the bucking moment as if your..."
You must hang onto the scraps of the bucking moment as if your sanity and life depended on it - because actually they do. Augusten Burroughs
You live in a deranged age - more deranged than usual, because despite great scientific and technological advances, man has not the faintest idea of who he is or what he is doing. Walker Percy
You can't eat tomatoes because they're tainted with deadly salmonella. First there was tainted lettuce. Now, tainted tomatoes. Who would have thought that the healthiest part of a B. L. T. would be the bacon? David Letterman
You see Carter, people are two things: greedy and cruel. So we have a perfect set-up here. The greed part - a kid pays a buck for a chance to win a hundred. Plus fifty boxes of chocolates. The cruel part - watching two guys hitting each other, maybe hurting each other, while they're safe in the bleachers. That's why it works, Carter, because we're all bastards. Robert Cormier
