Being Me Quotes (page 230)

No,' said Gould, with an unusual and convincing gravity; 'I do not believe that being perfectly good in all respects would make a man merry.' 'Well,' said Michael quietly, 'will you tell me one thing? Which of us has ever tried it? Gilbert K. Chesterton
Oscar Wilde quote: "And if life be, as it surely is, a problem to me, I am no less..."
And if life be, as it surely is, a problem to me, I am no less a problem to life. Oscar Wilde
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley quote: "Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is..."
Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
I have little left in myself -- I must have you. The world may laugh -- may call me absurd, selfish -- but it does not signify. My very soul demands you: it will be satisfied, or it will take deadly vengeance on its frame. Charlotte Bronte
Just be ordinary and nothing special. Eat your food, move your bowels, pass water, and when you're tired, go and lie down. The ignorant will laugh at me, but the wise will understand. Bruce Lee
I will leap into my grave laughing because the feeling that I have five million human beings on my conscience is for me a source of extraordinary satisfaction. Adolf Eichmann
Ernest Hemingway quote: "Oh, darling, you will be good to me, won’t you? Because we’re..."
Oh, darling, you will be good to me, won’t you? Because we’re going to have a strange life. Ernest Hemingway
I was yours once 'till death if you'd cared to keep me, but I'm someone else's now - I can't hang about whining forever - and he's mine in a way that shocks you, but why don't you stop being shocked, and attend to your own happiness? E. M. Forster
Our men have been real Frenchmen, and their wives--I may say it--have been worthy of them. You may see all their portraits at our house in Auvergne; every one of them an "injured" beauty, but not one of them hanging her head. Not one of them had the bad taste to be jealous... These are great traditions, and it doesn't seem to me fair that a little American bourgeoise should come in and pretend to alter them, and should hang her photograph, with her obstinate little "air penche Henry James
My shoulders sagged. Really, is it too much to ask that I be able to come home from a long day of work and relax? Oh, no. I have to come home and read a bunch of letters written to the love of my life by his fiance, who, if I am correct, had him killed a hundred and fifty years ago. Then, as if that is not bad enough, he wants me to explain the Vietnam War. Meg Cabot
The berries. I realize the answer to who I am lies in that handful of poisonous fruit. If I held them out to save Peeta because I knew I would be shunned if I came back without him, then I am despicable. If I held them out because I loved him, I am still self-centered, although forgivable. But if I held them out to defy the capitol, I am someone of worth. The trouble is, I don't know exactly what was going on inside me at that moment. Suzanne Collins
Robert Frost quote: "For dear me, why abandon a belief. Merely because it ceases to..."
For dear me, why abandon a belief. Merely because it ceases to be true Robert Frost
People say, "What’s it like to be a minority of one, or a kick-bag for the Internet?" It washes off me like jizz off a porn star’s face. Christopher Hitchens
Time had not faded my memories (as I had prayed to God it might), nor had it healed my wounds as it is said always to do. I began each day with the hope that the next day would be better, my recollections a little less pointed, but I would awake to the same pain, as if a black lamp were burning eternally inside me, radiating darkness. Orhan Pamuk
Jerzy Kosinski quote: "I have always suspected everyone who likes me of having poor..."
I have always suspected everyone who likes me of having poor judgment. I despise them for being so easily taken in. Jerzy Kosinski
