Doing Quotes (page 626)

I can no longer take war or promotion or big income or a large house seriously. I reject empire and Vietnam and placing a man on the moon. I deny time payments and looking like the girl next door and church weddings and a great deal more. If you want to blame such rejection on grass, you can do so. I charge it to awakening. James A. Michener

Love fills everything. It cannot be desired because it is an end in itself. It cannot betray because it has nothing to do with possession.

You don't know how paralyzing that is, that stare of a blank canvas is, which says to the painter, ‘You can't do a thing’. The canvas has an idiotic stare and mesmerizes some painters so much that they turn into idiots themselves. Many painters are afraid in front of the blank canvas, but the blank canvas is afraid of the real, passionate painter who dares and who has broken the spell of `you can't'... Vincent Van Gogh
Why do people give each other flowers? To celebrate various important occasions, they’re killing living creatures? Why restrict it to plants? 'Sweetheart, let’s make up. Have this deceased squirrel. Jerry Seinfeld
Today I'm out wandering, turning my skullinto a cup for others to drink wine from. In this town somewhere there sits a calm, intelligent man, who doesn't know what he's about to do! Rumi
A lot of what we experience as strength comes from knowing what to do with weakness. Nickel and Dimed On (Not) Getting By in America Barbara Ehrenreich
As and general rule,'he had once said,'people ask for advice only in order not to follow it; or, if they do follow it, in order to have someone to blame for giving it.'-Athos Alexander Dumas
Look at them. There are your true philosophers. I think that Mack and the boys know everything that has ever happened in the world and possibly everything that will happen. I think they survive in this particular world better than other people. In a time when people tear themselves to pieces with ambition and nervousness and covetousness, they are relaxed. All of our so-called successful men are sick men, with bad stomachs, and bad souls, but Mack and the boys are healthy and curiously... John Steinbeck
Stephen Crane quote: "Mother, whose heart hung humble as a button the bright..."
Mother, whose heart hung humble as a button the bright splendid shroud of your son, Do not weep. War is kind. Stephen Crane
Alas," said Aslan, shaking his head. "It will. Things always work according to their nature. She has won her heart's desire; she has unwearying strength and endless days like a goddess. But length of days with an evil heart is only length of misery and already she begins to know it. All get what they want; they do not always like it. C. S. Lewis
Thomas Beecham quote: "Madam, you have between your legs an instrument capable of..."
Madam, you have between your legs an instrument capable of giving pleasure to thousands? and all you can do is scratch it. Thomas Beecham
College football: I do not see the relationship of those highly industrialized affairs on Saturday afternoons to higher learning in America. Robert M. Hutchins
I think it's relatively easy for people to accept something like telepathy or precognition or teleplasm because their willingness to believe doesn't cost them anything. It doesn't keep them awake nights. But the idea that the evil that men do lives after them is unsettling. Stephen King
