Disappoint Quotes (page 20)

Matthew and Lucinda felt at the exact edge of their lives, feeling them close, closer, as near at hand as yet elusive as the wind that whistled in their hair: the true complete lives in which they would at last drown, the oceanic voyage into their thirties and beyond, through which their inchoate yearnings would either be soothed or disappointed, or both. Jonathan Lethem
But Aomame could never smile easily, or casually, in front of people. When she forced it, she ended up with a tight sneer, which made others even more tense and uncomfortable. Tamaki was different: she had a natural, cheerful smile. People meeting her for the first time immediately felt friendly toward her. In the end, though, disappointment and despair drove Tamaki to take her own life, leaving Aomame – who couldn’t manage a decent smile – behind. Haruki Murakami
Sylvia Plath quote: "If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed."
If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed. Sylvia Plath
I suppose that by this time they had finished their dressing. Roger Scurvilegs tells us nothing on such important matters; no doubt from modesty. "Next morning they rose," he says, and disappoints us of a picture of Udo brushing his hair. A. A. Milne
The pictures of me on the Internet were silly, inappropriate shots. I appreciate all the support of my fans, and hope they understand that along the way I am going to make mistakes and I am not perfect. I never intended for any of this to happen, and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone. Most of all, I have let myself down. I will learn from my mistakes and trust my support team. Miley Cyrus
I'm always disappointed when I see the word 'Puritan' tossed around as shorthand for a bunch of generic, boring, stupid, judgmental killjoys. Because to me, they are very specific, fascinating, sometimes brilliant, judgmental killjoys who rarely agreed on anything except that Catholics are going to Hell. Sarah Vowell
All over the world major museums have bowed to the influence of Disney and become theme parks in their own right. The past, whether Renaissance Italy or Ancient Egypt, is re-assimilated and homogenized into its most digestible form. Desperate for the new, but disappointed with anything but the familiar, we recolonize past and future. The same trend can be seen in personal relationships, in the way people are expected to package themselves, their emotions and sexuality, in attractive and... J. G. Ballard
Oscar Wilde quote: "Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired,..."
Never marry at all, Dorian. Men marry because they are tired, women, because they are curious: both are disappointed. Oscar Wilde
In the center lay the exploded carcass of a lonely sperm whale that hadn't lived long enough to be disappointed with its lot. Douglas Adams
To live greatly, we must develop the capacity to face trouble with courage, disappointment with cheerfulness, and triumph with humility. Thomas S. Monson
Haruki Murakami quote: "Nobody likes being alone that much. I don't go out of my way..."
Nobody likes being alone that much. I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all. It just leads to disappointment. Haruki Murakami
She kept to herself. Most afternoons I caught a glimpse of her in the shadows of B deck, in a deck chair. She always had in her possession a copy of The Magic Mountain, but no one ever saw her reading it. Miss Lasqueti consumed mostly crime thrillers, which constantly seemed to disappoint her. I suspect that for her the world was more accidental than any book's plot. Twice I saw her so irritated by a mystery that she half rose from the shadow of her chair and flung the paperback over the... Michael Ondaatje
It takes away a lot of the thrill of killing yourself when people are looking for you and you're disappointing them, because it is a lot of fun when you're out there killing yourself. Anthony Kiedis
Michael Chabon quote: "He looked so profoundly disappointed in me that I wondered..."
He looked so profoundly disappointed in me that I wondered for a moment if he was someone I knew. Michael Chabon
Chuck Klosterman quote: "Every time I learn the truth about something, I’m disappointed"
Every time I learn the truth about something, I’m disappointed Chuck Klosterman
