Companies Quotes (page 28)

Besides, in this random miscellaneous company we may rub against some complete stranger who will, with luck, turn into the best friend we have in the world. Virginia Woolf
If you have never wept bitter tears because a wonderful story has come to an end and you must take your leave of the characters with whom you have shared so many adventures, whom you have loved and admired, for whom you have hoped and feared, and without whose company life seems empty and meaningless. If such things have not been part of your own experience, you probably won't understand what Bastian did next. Michael Ende
There must be transients in the bird world too, rumple-feathered outcasts that naturally seek out each other’s company in inferior and dying trees. Barbara Kingsolver
He's a rum dog. Don't he look fierce at any strange cove that laughs or sings when he's in company!' pursued the Dodger. 'Won't he growl at all, when he hears a fiddle playing! And don't he hate other dogs as ain't of his breed! Oh, no!''He's an out-and-out Christian,' said Charley. Charles Dickens
Even the solitude, I've actually grown to quite like... I do like the feeling of getting into my little car, knowing for the next couple of hours I'll have only the roads, the big gray sky and my daydreams for company. Kazuo Ishiguro
In the afternoon the ship's company assembled aft, on deck, under the awnings; the flute, the asthmatic meodeon, and the consumptive clarinet crippled the Star Spangled Banner, the choir chased it to cover, and George came in with a peculiarly lacerating screech on the final note and slaughtered it. Nobody mourned. We carried out the corpse on three cheers (that joke was not intentional and I do not endorse it). Mark Twain
Louisa May Alcott quote: "Tired of my own company, I suppose, now I've seen so much better."
Tired of my own company, I suppose, now I've seen so much better. Louisa May Alcott
Every season is likeable, and wet days and fine, red wine and white, company and solitude. Even sleep, that deplorable curtailment of the joy of life, can be full of dreams; and the most common actionsa walk, a talk, solitude in one’s own orchardcan be enhanced and lit up by the association of the mind. Beauty is everywhere, and beauty is only two finger’s-breadth from goodness. Virginia Woolf
Some people read for instruction, which is praiseworthy, and some for pleasure, which is innocent, but not a few read from habit, and I suppose that this is neither innocent or praiseworthy. Of that lamentable company am I. Conversation after a time bores me, games tire me and my own thoughts, which we are told are the unfailing resource of a sensible man, have a tendency to run dry. Then I fly to my book as the opium-smoker to his pipe. W. Somerset Maugham
John Locke quote: "Education begins the humman, but reading good company and..."
Education begins the humman, but reading good company and reflection must finish him. John Locke
James Thurber quote: "Two is company, four is a party, three is a crowd. One is a..."
Two is company, four is a party, three is a crowd. One is a wanderer. James Thurber
Andy Warhol quote: "But I always say, one's company, two's a crowd, and three's a..."
But I always say, one's company, two's a crowd, and three's a party Andy Warhol
Hugh Hefner quote: "If a beautiful women expressed interest in me and my company,..."
If a beautiful women expressed interest in me and my company, I don't really probe their motivations. Call me shallow. Hugh Hefner
You call me a misanthrope because I avoid society. You err; I love society. Yet in order not to hate people, I must avoid their company. Caspar David Friedrich
Satan must have been pretty simple, even according to the New Testament, or he wouldn't have led Christ up on a high mountain and offered him the world if he would fall down and worship him. That was a manifestly absurd proposition, because Christ, as the Son of God, already owned the world; and besides, what Satan showed him was only a few rocky acres of Palestine. It is just as if some one should try to buy Rockefeller, the owner of all the Standard Oil Company, with a gallon of kerosene. Mark Twain
