It's no accident, I think, that tennis uses the language of life. Advantage, service, fault, break, love, the basic elements of tennis are those of everyday existence, because every match is a life in miniature. Even the structure of tennis, the way the pieces fit inside one another like Russian nesting dolls, mimics the structure of our days. Points become games become sets become tournaments, and it's all so tightly connected that any point can become the turning point. It reminds me of... Andre Agassi
I still can't believe it . . . him comin' here everyday, nobody realizin'. Still, that's life: lotta stuff happens under the waterline. Alan Moore
If humanism were right in declaring that man is born to be happy, he would not be born to die. Since his body is doomed to die, his task on earth evidently must be of a more spiritual nature. It cannot unrestrained enjoyment of everyday life. It cannot be the search for the best ways to obtain material goods and then cheerfully get the most out of them. It has to be the fulfillment of a permanent, earnest duty so that one's life journey may become an experience of moral growth, so that one... Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The truth is always an abyss. One must? as in a swimming pool? dare to dive from the quivering springboard of trivial everyday experience and sink into the depths, in order to later rise again? laughing and fighting for breath? to the now doubly illuminated surface of things. Franz Kafka
Nicholas Sparks quote: "You should be kissed everyday, every hour, every minute."
You should be kissed everyday, every hour, every minute. Nicholas Sparks
Nay, you'll be ashamed of me everyday of your life," he answered; "and the more ashamed, the more you know me; and I cannot bide it. Emily Bronte
All this emphasis on youth - I don’t buy it. Listen, I know what a misery being young can be, so don’t tell me it’s so great. All these kids who came to me with their struggles, their strife, their feelings of inadequacy, their sense that life was miserable, so bad they wanted to kill themselves... and in addition to all the miseries, the young are not wise. They have very little understanding about life. Who wants to live everyday when you don’t know what’s going on? When people are... Morrie Schwartz
This, reader, is an honest book...I want to appear in my simple, natural and everyday dress, without strain or artifice; for it is myself that I portray Michel de Montaigne
Brigham Young quote: "The men and women, who desire to obtain seats in the celestial..."
The men and women, who desire to obtain seats in the celestial kingdom, will find that they must battle everyday. Brigham Young
Nicholas Sparks quote: "I want all of you, forever, you and me, everyday"
I want all of you, forever, you and me, everyday Nicholas Sparks
In that way the long-awaited visit, for which both had prepared questions and had even anticipated answers, was once more the usual everyday conversation. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Jean-Paul Sartre quote: "what we might call everyday morality is exclusive of ethical..."
...what we might call everyday morality is exclusive of ethical anguish. Jean-Paul Sartre
I don't mean to say that I'm about to state my credo here on this page, but merely to affirm, sincerely for the first time in my life, my belief in man as an individual and independent entity. Certainly not independence in the everyday sense of the word, but pertaining to a freedom and mobility of thought that few people are able - or even have the courage - to achieve. Hunter S. Thompson
I'd write of people and places like I knew, and I'd make my characters talk everyday English; and I'd let the sun rise and set in the usual quiet way without much fuss over the fact. If I had to have villains at all, I'd give them a chance, Anne--I'd give them a chance. There are some terrible bad men the world, I suppose, but you'd have to go a long piece to find them...But most of us have got a little decency somewhere in us. Keep on writing, Anne. L. M. Montgomery
