Else Quotes (page 53)

First she said we were to keep clear of the Sirens, who sit and sing most beautifully in a field of flowers; but she said I might hear them myself so long as no one else did. Therefore, take me and bind me to the crosspiece half way up the mast; bind me as I stand upright, with a bond so fast that I cannot possibly break away, and lash the rope's ends to the mast itself. If I beg and pray you to set me free, then bind me more tightly still. Homer
Jack Welch quote: "Control your own Destiny or somebody else will"
Control your own Destiny or somebody else will Jack Welch
But love wasn't about sacrifice, and it wasn't about falling short of someone's expectations. By definition, love made you better than good enough; it redefined perfection to include your traits, instead of excluding them. All any of us wanted, really, was to know that we counted. That someone else's life would not have been as rich without us here. Jodi Picoult
Consider cotton prices," Malcolm said. "There are good records of cotton prices going back more than a hundred years. When you study fluctuations in cotton prices, you find that the graph of price fluctuations in the course of a day looks basically like the graph for a week, which looks basically like the graph for a year, or for ten years. And that's how things are. A day is like a whole life. You start out doing one thing, but end up doing something else, plan to run an errand, but never... Michael Crichton
My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be.... Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure.... but as my own being. Emily Bronte
Gore Vidal quote: "Heroes must see to their own fame. No one else will."
Heroes must see to their own fame. No one else will. Gore Vidal
Love can't be pinned down by a definition, and it certainly can't be proved, any more than anything else important in life can be proved. Madeleine L'Engle
We're all out of black hellebore," Frike said. "Would toadswort or anything else do?"I thought I told you to keep the stock up."I'm sorry master. I developed a taste for it. Roger Zelazny
I'd Begin to imagine my life in a foreign country, some faraway land where, if things went wrong, i could always blame somebody else, saying I'd never wanted to live there in the first place. David Sedaris
I want - I want somehow to get away with you into a world where words like that -categories like that- won't exist. Where we shall be simply two human beings who love each other, who are the whole of life to each other; and nothing else on earth will matter. Edith Wharton
That sensation of a void within which never left us, that irrational longing to hark back to the past or else to speed up the march of time, and those keen shafts of memory that stung like fire. Albert Camus
The Lord is not serious. In fact, it is a little hard to know just what else He is except loving. And love has to do with humor, doesn't it? For you cannot love someone unless you put up with him, can you? And you cannot put up with someone constantly unless you can laugh at him. Isn't that true? And certainly we are rediculous little animals wallowing in the fudge bowl, and God must love us all the more because we appeal to his humor. Ray Bradbury
Nicholas Sparks quote: "You're still alive. And that means you'll love and be..."
You're still alive. And that means you'll love and be loved...and in the end, nothing else really matters. Nicholas Sparks
Being a teenager isn't all that different from being part of someone else's story. There's always someone who thinks they know better than you do Jodi Picoult
Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: The requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world -- "No, YOU... J. Michael Straczynski
