Easily Quotes (page 14)

Lao Tzu quote: "He who stands on his tiptoes does not stand firm; he who..."
He who stands on his tiptoes does not stand firm; he who stretches his legs does not walk (easily). Lao Tzu
It was the kind of promise a father makes easily and sincerely, knowing at the same time that it will be impossible to keep. The truth of some promises is not as important as whether or not you can believe in them, with all your heart. A game of baseball can't really make a summer day last forever. A home run can't really heal all the broken places in our world, or in a single human heart. And there was no way that Mr. Feld could keep his promise never to leave Ethan again. All parents leave... Michael Chabon

William S. Burroughs
It's just harder out there in the world of the living, and we cannot protect you out there as easily. I wanted to keep you perfectly safe...But there is only one perfectly safe place for your kind, and you will not reach it until all your adventures are over and none of them matter any longer. Neil Gaiman
Todd McFarlane quote: "Batman is easily my most favorite character beside Spawn."
Batman is easily my most favorite character beside Spawn. Todd McFarlane
Jane Austen quote: "I wish I might take this for a compliment; but to be so easily..."
I wish I might take this for a compliment; but to be so easily seen through I am afraid is pitiful. Jane Austen
Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. In the first stage of life the mind is frivolous and easily distracted; it misses progress by failing in consecutiveness and persistence. This is the condition of children and... George Santayana
But, later, coming back and reading what I have produced, I am unable to detect the difference between what came easily and when I had to sit down and say, "Well, now it's writing time and now I'll write. Frank Herbert
You solve it as you get older, when you reach the point where you've tasted so much that you can somehow sacrifice certain things more easily, and you have a more tolerant view of things like possessiveness (your own) and a broader acceptance of the pains and the losses. Ted Hughes
Jean de La Fontaine quote: "Everyone believes very easily whatever he fears or desires."
Everyone believes very easily whatever he fears or desires. Jean de La Fontaine
The past was like a bad dream; the future was all happy holiday as I moved Southwards week by week, easily, lazily, lingering as long as I dared, but always heeding the call! Kenneth Grahame
Plato quote: "We can easily forget a child who is afraid of the dark. The..."
We can easily forget a child who is afraid of the dark. The real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light. Plato
Children do live in fantasy and reality; they move back and forth very easily in a way we no longer remember how to do. As quoted in Questions to an Artist Who Is Also an Author : A Conversation between Maurice Sendak and Virginia Haviland (1972) by Virginia Haviland Maurice Sendak
