Buts Quotes (page 579)

Facing death calmly is praiseworthy only if one faces it alone. Death together is no longer death, even for unbelievers. The source of sorrows lies not in leaving life, but in leaving that which gives it meaning. When love is our whole life, what difference is there between living together and dying together ? Raymond Radiguet
Isabel Allende quote: "Silence before being born, silence after death: life is..."
Silence before being born, silence after death: life is nothing but noise between two unfathomable silences. Isabel Allende
No truth can cure the sorrow we feel from losing a loved one. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness can cure that sorrow. All we can do is see it through to the end and learn something from it, but what we learn will be no help in facing the next sorrow that comes to us without warning. Haruki Murakami
Stephen King quote: "Some part of me knew from the first that what I wanted was not..."
Some part of me knew from the first that what I wanted was not reality but myth. Stephen King
I'll probably never produce a masterpiece, but so what? I feel I have a Sound aborning, which is my own, and that Sound if erratic is still my greatest pride, because I would rather write like a dancer shaking my ass to boogaloo inside my head, and perhaps reach only readers who like to use books to shake their asses, than to be or write for the man cloistered in a closet somewhere reading Aeschylus while this stupefying world careens crazily past his waxy windows toward its last raving sooty... Lester Bangs
Mark Twain quote: "Which is him?" The grammar was faulty, maybe, but we could not..."
Which is him?" The grammar was faulty, maybe, but we could not know, then, that it would go in a book someday. Mark Twain
And it was about then, about that time, that I began to find life unsatisfactory as an explanation of itself and was forced to adopt the method of the artist of not explaining but putting the blocks together in some other way that seems more significant to him. Which is a rather fancy way of saying I started writing. Tennessee Williams
Ernest Hemingway quote: "It's harder to write in the third person but the advantage is..."
It's harder to write in the third person but the advantage is you move around better. Ernest Hemingway
It took me fifteen years to discover that I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that time I was too famous. Robert Benchley
In spite of all the sparring that went on between us, I sort of liked Morelli. Good judgment told me to stand clear of him, but then I've never been a slave to good judgment. Janet Evanovich
Her voice was now so shrill only bats would be able to hear it soon, but she had reached a level of indignation that rendered her temporarily speechless.. J. K. Rowling
Oprah Winfrey quote: "Mr. Right is coming, but he's in Africa and he's walking."
Mr. Right is coming, but he's in Africa and he's walking. Oprah Winfrey
What can we see, read, acquire, but ourselves. Take the book, my friend, and read your eyes out, you will never find there what I find. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you're keeping all of them in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls...are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. James Patterson
It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving, but like morning light it scattered the night and made the day worth living. F. Scott Fitzgerald
