Far Quotes (page 123)

I would assume that you were going to offer me refreshment, but the evidence so far suggests that that would be optimistic to the point of foolishness. J. K. Rowling
In this world, headwinds are far more prevalent than winds from astern (that is, if you never violate the Pythagorean maxim). Herman Melville
E. M. Forster quote: "I'd far rather leave a thought behind me than a child. Other..."
I'd far rather leave a thought behind me than a child. Other people can have children. E. M. Forster
The primitive thinking of the supernaturally inclined amounts to what his psychiatric colleagues call a problem, or an idea, of reference. An excess of the subjective, the ordering of the world in line with your needs, an inability to contemplate your own unimportance. In Henry’s view such reasoning belongs on a spectrum at whose far end, rearing like an abandoned temple, lies psychosis. Ian Mcewan
Haruki Murakami quote: "Distance might not solve anything, no matter how far you run."
Distance might not solve anything, no matter how far you run. Haruki Murakami
Sometimes you get tired of riding in taxicabs the same way you get tired riding in elevators. All of a sudden, you have to walk, no matter how far or how high up. J. D. Salinger
Fred Rogers quote: "Peace means far more than the opposite of war."
Peace means far more than the opposite of war. Fred Rogers
And sweet and far as from a star, replied a voice which shall not cease, till drowning all the noise of war, it sings the blessed song of peace John Greenleaf Whittier
As far as I can see there is no conquering or exorcising the past with words - words born either of imagination or forthrightness. Philip Roth
As far as we know, we are the only species on the planet who have been given the gift-or curse, perhaps-of awareness about our own mortality. Everything here eventually dies; we're just the lucky ones who get to think about this fact every day. Elizabeth Gilbert
Everything that's happened so far has been some kind of especially vivid dream. All we have to believe with is our senses, the tools we use to perceive the world: our sight, our touch, our memory. If they lie to us, then nothing can be trusted. And even if we do not believe, then still we cannot travel in any other way than the road our senses show us; we must walk that road to the end. Neil Gaiman
Arthur C. Clarke quote: "But please remember: this is only a work of fiction. The..."
But please remember: this is only a work of fiction. The truth, as always, will be far stranger. Arthur C. Clarke
Philosophers say a great deal about what is absolutely necessary for science, and it is always, so far as one can see, rather naive, and probably wrong. Richard P. Feynman
We live our lives, do whatever we do, and then we sleep. It's as simple and ordinary as that. A few jump out windows, or drown themselves, or take pills; more die by accident; and most of us are slowly devoured by some disease, or, if we're very fortunate, by time itself. There's just this for consolation: an hour here or there when our lives seem, against all odds & expectations, to burst open & give us everything we've ever imagined, though everyone but children (and perhaps even they) know... Virginia Woolf
Sally, or rather Sarah (for what young lady of common gentility will reach the age of sixteen without altering her name as far as she can?) must from situation be at this time the intimatre friend and confidante of her sister. Jane Austen
