Dated Quotes (page 11)

It happened, as many things do, imperceptibly, in many ways at once. I date it - the slow crumbling of my faith, the pulverization of my fortress - from the time, about a year after I had begun to preach, when I began to read again. I justified this desire by the fact that I was still in school, and I began, fatally, with Dostoyevsky. James Baldwin
It is the perfect wrong time for Jeremy to do to Mirabelle what she had done to him - call him up for a quick fix - because;, in a sense, she is now betrothed. Her first date with someone who treated her well obligates her to faithfulness, at least until the relationship is explored. Steve Martin
Love, love, love? all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness. Germaine Greer
Sharon Stone quote: "Always carry a book on a date so that when you get bored you..."
Always carry a book on a date so that when you get bored you can slip into the Ladies for a read. Sharon Stone
Yes, I am of old family, and not illiterate. I am a fossil."? "A which?"? "Fossil. The first horses were fossils. They date back two million years. Mark Twain
Gideon: We've established some talking points: we have an intense sexual attraction and neither of us wants to date. So what do you want – exactly? Seduction, Eva? Do you want to be seduced? Eva: Sex that’s planned like a business transaction is a turnoff for me. Gideon: Establishing parameters in a merger makes it less likely that there’ll be exaggerated expectations and disappointment. Eva: Why even call it a fuck? Why not be clear and call it seminal emission in a pre-approved orifice? Sylvia Day
But now isn’t simply now. Now is also a cold reminder: one whole day later than yesterday, one year later than last year. Every now is labeled with its date, rendering all past nows obsolete, until — later of sooner — perhaps — no, not perhaps — quite certainly: it will come. Christopher Isherwood
Alison Bechdel quote: "On our second date, she kissed me in a bar. I invited her..."
On our second date, she kissed me in a bar. I invited her home. We just caught the F train, which seemed like a good omen. Alison Bechdel
You’ve got to get cold to get warm,” Phoebe said. Now that is the truth. That is so true about so many things. You learn it first with sheets and blankets: that the initial touch of the smooth sheets will send you shivering, but their warming works fast, and you must experience the discomfort to find the later contentment. It’s true with money and love, too. You’ve got to save to have something to spend. Think of how hard it is to ask out a person you like. In my case, Claire asked me to go... Nicholson Baker
Franklin D. Roosevelt quote: "December 7th, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy"
December 7th, 1941 -- a date which will live in infamy Franklin D. Roosevelt
George R. R. Martin quote: "Past a certain point, all the dates grow hazy and confused,..."
Past a certain point, all the dates grow hazy and confused, and the clarity of history becomes the fog of legend. George R. R. Martin
What? We feel aesthetic pleasure at a sonata by Beethoven and not at one with the same style and charm if it comes from one of our own contemporaries? Isn't that the height of hypocrisy? So then the sensation of beauty is not spontaneous, spurred by our sensibility, but instead is cerebral, conditioned by our knowing a date? No way around it: historical consciousness is so thoroughly inherent in our perception of art that this anachronism (a Beethoven piece written today) would be... Milan Kundera
It is photography itself that creates the illusion of innocence. Its ironies of frozen narrative lend to its subjects an apparent unawareness that they will change or die. It is the future they are innocent of. Fifty years on we look at them with the godly knowledge of how they turne dout after all - who they married, the date of their death - with no thought for who will one day be holding photographs of us. Ian Mcewan
Christmas ought to be brought up to date? Maria said.?It ought to have gangsters, and aeroplanes and a lot of automatic pistols. John Masefield
Men don't settle down because of the right woman. They settle down because they are finally ready for it. Whatever woman they're dating when they get ready is the one they settle down with, not necessarily the best one or the prettiest, just the one who happened to be on hand when the time got to be right. Unromantic, but still true. Laurell K. Hamilton
