Fallen World Quotes (page 2)

Her nerves gathered together so quickly, Gennie nearly dropped the five pounds of briquettes on the ground. When she'd finished being exasperated with herself, she laughed and poured a neat pile of charcoal into the barbecue pit. So this was the coolly sophisticated Genvieve Grandeau, she thought wryly; established member of the art world and genteel New Orleans society, about to drop five pounds of charcoal on her toes because a rude man was going to have dinner with her. How the mighty have... Nora Roberts
We have fallen in the dreams the ever-livingBreathe on the tarnished mirror of the world, And then smooth out with ivory hands and sigh. William Butler Yeats
John Gardner quote: "He was saner than anyone --had fallen out of the world of..."
He was saner than anyone --had fallen out of the world of illusion: love, interesting work, hope for the future. John Gardner
Camille Claudel quote: "I have fallen into an abyss. I live in a world so curious, so..."
I have fallen into an abyss. I live in a world so curious, so strange. Of the dream that was my life, this is my nightmare. Camille Claudel
The fallen autumn leaves were slick beneath Bod's feet, and the mists blurred the edges of the world. Nothing was as clean-cut as he had thought it, a few minutes before. Neil Gaiman
The world had ended, so why had the battle not ceased, the castle fallen silent in horror, and every combatant laid down their arms?

[L]ife is a phenomenon in need of criticism, for we are, as fallen creatures, in permanent danger of worshipping false gods, of failing to understand ourselves and misinterpreting the behaviour of others, of growing unproductively anxious or desirous, and of losing ourselves to vanity and error. Surreptitiously and beguilingly, then, with humour or gravity, works of art--novels, poems, plays, paintings or films--can function as vehicles to explain our condition to us. They may act as guides... Alain de Botton
One of the purest souls ever to live on this fallen planet was Nicholas Herman, known as Brother Lawrence. He wrote very little, but what he wrote has seemed to several generations of Christians to be so rare and so beautiful as to deserve a place near the top among the world's great books of devotion. The writings of Brother Lawrence are the ultimate in simplicity; ideas woven like costly threads to make a pattern of great beauty. Aiden Wilson Tozer
I have always loved to read, and now that I have penned 10 novels and a few magazine articles, I have fallen seriously in love with writing stories and seeing them go out into the world. It's magical, you know? Dorothea Benton Frank
In the richest country in the history of the world, this Obama economy has crushed the middle class. Family income has fallen by $4,000, but health insurance premiums are higher, food prices are higher, utility bills are higher, and gasoline prices have doubled. Today more Americans wake up in poverty than ever before. Mitt Romney
