Comforted Quotes (page 35)

Wild creatures' eyes, the colonel said,Are innocent and fathomlessAnd when I look at them I seeThat they are not aware of meAnd oh I find and oh I blessA comfort in this emptinessThey only see me when they wantTo pounce upon me at the hunt;But in the tame varietyThere couches an anxietyAs if they yearned, yet knew not whatThey yearned for, nor they yearned for not.And so my dog would look at meAnd it was pitiful to seeSuch love and such dependency.The human heart is not at easeWith animals... Stevie Smith

Or is it this: To be sick and send away the comforters, and to make friends of the deaf, who never hear your requests? Friedrich Nietzsche
Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?' 'Supposing it didn't,' said Pooh after careful thought. Piglet was comforted by this. A. A. Milne
Stephen King quote: "women are better at keeping secrets, but men are more..."
...women are better at keeping secrets, but men are more comfortable with them. Stephen King
The divine reproach Jesus felt so exquisitely, because of His meekly standing in for us, fulfilled yet another prophecy: ‘Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none’ (Ps. 69:20). His heart was broken, as He did ‘suffer both body and spirit’ (D& C 19:18). He trembled because of pain, and yet He, amidst profound aloneness, finished His preparations, bringing to pass the ... Neal A. Maxwell
Nothing in life is unfair. It's just life. To the extent that I had any inner turmoil, I had only myself to blame. I also thought of my two boys and what kind of example I hoped to be. I would always want them to take charge of their own futures and not be paralyzed by the comfort and certainty of the status quo or be cowed by the judgment of those on the outside looking in. Rob Lowe
There is still, I think, not enough recognition by teachers of the fact that the desire to think--which is fundamentally a moral problem--must be induced before the power is developed. Most people, whether men or women, wish above all else to be comfortable, and thought is a pre-eminently uncomfortable process. Vera Brittain
That's when you know you've found somebody really special. When you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortably share silence. Quentin Tarantino
Mark Twain quote: "Ours is a terrible religion. The fleets of the world could..."
Ours is a terrible religion. The fleets of the world could swim in spacious comfort in the innocent blood it has spilt. Mark Twain
Lew Wallace quote: "Riches take wings, comforts vanish, hope withers away, but..."
Riches take wings, comforts vanish, hope withers away, but love stays with us. Love is God. Lew Wallace
This was my only and my constant comfort. When I think of it, the picture always rises in my mind, of a summer evening, the boys at play in the churchyard, and I sitting on my bed, reading as if for life. Charles Dickens
So Matilda’s strong young mind continued to grow, nurtured by the voices of all those authors who had sent their books out into the world like ships on the sea. These books gave Matilda a hopeful and comforting message: You are not alone. Roald Dahl
It is simple to follow the easy and familiar path of personal ambition and private gain. It is more comfortable to sit content in the easy approval of friends and of neighbours than to risk the friction and the controversy that comes with public affairs. It is easier to fall in step with the slogans of others than to march to the beat of the internal drummer - to make and stand on judgements of your own. And it far easier to accept and to stand on the past, than to fight for the answers of... Daniel Webster
Anne Lamott quote: "For some of us, good books and beautiful writing are our..."
For some of us, good books and beautiful writing are our ultimate solace, even more comforting than exquisite food. Anne Lamott
Most people would never admit it, but they'd been bitching since they were born. As soon as their head popped out into that bright delivery-room light, nothing had been right. Nothing had been as comfortable or felt so good. Just the effort it took to keep your stupid physical body alive, just finding food and cooking it and dishwashing, the keeping warm and bathing and sleeping, the walking and bowel movements and ingrown hairs, it was all getting to be too much work. Chuck Palahniuk
