Ending Quotes (page 215)

I like to think of what happens to characters in good novels and stories as knots--things keep knotting up. And by the end of the story--readers see an unknotting of sorts. Not what you expect, not the easy answers you get on TV, not wash and wear philosophies, but a reproduction of believable, emotional experiences. Terry McMillan
Writing is like sausage making in my view; you'll all be happier in the end if you just eat the final product without knowing what's gone into it. George R. R. Martin
Gee-word?"Gods. What were you doin' the day they handed out brains, boy, anyway?"Someone was telling a story about stealing a tiger's balls, and I had to stop and find out how it ended. Neil Gaiman
So much for endings. Beginnings are always more fun. True connoisseurs, however, are known to favor the stretch in between, since it's the hardest to do anything with. That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what. Margaret Atwood
But what about the End of the Universe? We'll miss the big moment."I've seen it. It's rubbish," said Zaphod,"nothing but a gnab gib."A what?"Opposite of a big bang. Come on, let's get zappy. Douglas Adams
When someone leaves you, apart from missing them, apart from the fact that the whole little world you've created together collapses, and that everything you see or do reminds you of them, the worst is the thought that they tried you out and, in the end, the whole sum of parts adds up to you got stamped REJECT by the one you love. How can you not be left with the personal confidence of a passed over British Rail sandwich? Helen Fielding
Lewis Carroll quote: "Go on till you come to the end; then stop."
Go on till you come to the end; then stop. Lewis Carroll
For some time now, our whole European culture has been moving with a tortured tension that is growing from decade to decade, as toward a catastrophe: restlessly, violently, headlong, like a river that wants to reach the end, that no longer reflects, that is afraid to reflect. Friedrich Nietzsche
Where the storyteller is loyal, eternally and unswervingly loyal to the story, there, in the end, silence will speak. Where the story has been betrayed, silence is but emptiness. But we, the faithful, when we have spoken our last word, will hear the voice of silence. Isak Dinesen
Rightly tired of the pain I hear and feel, boss... where we's comin from or goin to or why; If I could it end it, I would. But I can't. Stephen King
This returning to their root is what we call the state of stillness; and that stillness may be called a reporting that they have fulfilled their appointed end. Lao Tzu
Baptists: I'm a pious guy, but even I have my limits. I draw the line right around spending 8 hours in church every Sunday. Church should be a solemn 45 minutes to sit quietly and feel guilty, with donuts at the end to make you feel better. I don't go in for a full day of singing and dancing and rejoicing, no matter how nice the hats are. I prefer my Gospel monotonously droned to me from a pulpit, thank you very much. Stephen Colbert
A philosopher/mathematician named Bertrand Russell who lived and died in the same century as Gass once wrote: “Language serves not only to express thought but to make possible thoughts which could not exist without it.” Here is the essence of mankind’s creative genius: not the edifices of civilization nor the bang-flash weapons which can end it, but the words which fertilize new concepts like spermatazoa attacking an ovum. Dan Simmons
Accepting the absurdity of everything around us is one step, a necessary experience: it should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful Albert Camus
Taylor Swift quote: "Thinking all love ever does Is break And burn ..."
Thinking all love ever does Is break And burn And end Taylor Swift
