Buts Quotes (page 38)

But Humanity, in its desire for comfort, had over-reached itself. It had exploited the riches of nature too far. Quietly and complacently, it was sinking into decadence, and progress had come to mean the progress of the Machine. E. M. Forster
But the great fact was the land itself, which seemed to overwhelm the little beginnings of human society that struggled in its sombre wastes. It was from facing this vast hardness that the boy's mouth had become so bitter; because he felt that men were too weak to make any mark here, that the land wanted to be let alone, to preserve its own fierce strength, its peculiar, savage kind of beauty, its uninterrupted mournfulness. Willa Cather
But even she had figured out that there was no point giving up a great job and following him to the ends of the earth, when he simply refused to make any promises about, or even discuss, the future. Danielle Steel
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "But I tell you what it is; an honest and sensitive man is..."
But I tell you what it is; an honest and sensitive man is open; and a business man 'listens and goes on eating' you up. Fyodor Dostoevsky
But I am lost in flesh, whose sugared lies, Still mock me and grow bold: Sure thou didst put a mind there, if I could. Find where it lies. George Herbert
But the worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself; you lie in wait for yourself in caverns and forests. Lonely one, you are going the way to yourself! And your way goes past yourself, and past your seven devils! You will be a heretic to yourself and witch and soothsayer and fool and doubter and unholy one and villain. You must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame: how could you become new, if you had not first become ashes? Friedrich Nietzsche
Saul Bellow quote: "But she's a nut, and nuts win."
But she's a nut, and nuts win. Saul Bellow
But already my desire and my willwere being turned like a wheel, all at one speed, by the Love which moves the sun and the other stars Dante Alighieri
But the melancholy of Worlorn's dying forests had seeped into his flesh, and he saw Gwen through tainted eyes, a doll figure in a suit as faded as despair. George R. R. Martin
But the dignity of human life is unbreakably linked to the existence of the personal-infinite God. It is because there is a personal-infinite God who has made men and women in His own image that they have a unique dignity of life as human beings. Human life then is filled with dignity, and the state and humanistically oriented law have no right and no authority to take human life arbitrarily in the way it is being taken. Francis Schaeffer
But then, Cap'n Crunch in a flake form would be suicidal madness; it would last about as long, when immersed in milk, as snowflakes sifting down into a deep fryer. No, the cereal engineers at General Mills had to find a shape that would minimize surface area, and, as some sort of compromise between the sphere that is dictated by Euclidean geometry and whatever sunken treasure related shapes that the cereal aestheticians were probably clamoring for, they came up with this hard -to-pin-down... Neal Stephenson
But blasting the drummer into the river, though it would have been easy at this range, was not a good way to be inconspicuous. Neal Stephenson
But then, the sky! Blue, untainted by a single cloud (the Ancientes had such barbarous tastes given that their poets could have been inspired by such stupid, sloppy, silly-lingering clumps of vapour). I love - and i'm certain that i'm not mistaken if i say we love - skies like this, sterile and flawless! On days like these, the whole world is blown from the same shatterproof, everlasting glass as the glass of the Green Wall and of all our structures. On days like these, you can see to the... Yevgeny Zamyatin
Charles Fort quote: "But some of us have been educated by surprises out of much..."
But some of us have been educated by surprises out of much that we were 'absolutely sure' of... Charles Fort
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "But I am the real Strider, fortunately. I am Aragorn son of..."
But I am the real Strider, fortunately. I am Aragorn son of Arathorn; and if by life or death I can save you, I will. J. R. R. Tolkien
