Becoming Quotes (page 220)

Eric Hoffer quote: "Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business,..."
Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket. Eric Hoffer
Well, the way of paradoxes is the way of truth. To test reality we must see it on the tight rope. When the verities become acrobats, we can judge them. Oscar Wilde
Chelsea Handler quote: "ONE OF MY girlfriends was getting married. This was becoming..."
ONE OF MY girlfriends was getting married. This was becoming an annoying pattern. Chelsea Handler
She needs a new journal. The one she has is problematic. To get to the present, she needs to page through the past, and when she does, she remembers things, and her new journal entries become, for the most part, reactions to the days she regrets, wants to correct, rewrite. Dave Eggers
Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted. Sylvia Plath
It is a sad day when one looks back and sees that his largest regrets have become some of the most integral elements of his dreams. John Knowles
Nobody sees anybody truly but all through the flaws of their own egos. That is the way we all see ...each other in life. Vanity, fear, desire, competition-- all such distortions within our own egos-- condition our vision of those in relation to us. Add to those distortions to our own egos the corresponding distortions in the egos of others, and you see how cloudy the glass must become through which we look at each other. That's how it is in all living relationships except when there is that... Tennessee Williams
That it is at least as difficult to stay a moral infection as a physical one; that such a disease will spread with the malignity and rapidity of the Plague; that the contagion, when it has once made head, will spare no pursuit or condition, but will lay hold on people in the soundest health, and become developed in the most unlikely constitutions; is a fact as firmly established by experience Charles Dickens
Nature does not often say 'See?' to her poor creature at a time when seeing can lead to happy doing; or reply 'Here!' to a body's cry of 'Where?' till the hide-and-seek has become an irksome, outworn game. Thomas Hardy
He dreamed big but understood that dreams become reality only when their champions are strong enough and wily enough to bend history to their purposes. Jon Meacham
August Strindberg quote: "I, too, am beginning to feel an immense need to become a..."
I, too, am beginning to feel an immense need to become a savage and create a new world. August Strindberg
I have never sneered in my life. Sneering doesn't become either the human face or the human soul. I am expressing my righteous contempt for Commercialism. I don't and wont trade in affection. You call me a brute because you couldn't buy a claim on me by fetching my slippers and finding my spectacles. You were a fool: I think a woman fetching a man's slippers is a disgusting sight: did I ever fetch your slippers? I think a good deal more of you for throwing them in my face. No use slaving for... George Bernard Shaw
...I suddenly realized what small towns are. They are places where you grow up with the peculiar-you live next to the strange and the unlikely for so long that everything and everyone become commonplace. John Irving
I love you because all the loves in the world are like different rivers flowing into the same lake where they meet and are transformed into a single love that becomes rain and blesses the earth. Paulo Coelho
