Feelings Quotes (page 404)

I am a Christian - but sometimes I feel very removed from Christianity. The Jesus Christ that I believe in was the man who turned over the tables in the temple and threw the money-changers out - substitute T.V. evangelists if you like…why in the West, do we spend so much money on extending the arms race instead of wiping out malaria, which could be eradicated given ten minutes worth of the world's arm budget? To me, we are living in the most un-Christian times. When I see these racketeers,... Bono
She entered the story knowing she would emerge from it feeling she had been immersed in the lives of others, in plots that stretched back twenty years, her body full of sentences and moments, as if awaking from sleep with a heaviness caused by unremembered dreams. Michael Ondaatje
Things somehow seem more real and vivid when one can apply somebody else's ready-made phrase about them (...) you bring them out triumphantly, and feel you've clinched the argument with the mere magical sound of them. That's what comes of the higher education. Aldous Huxley
Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter. J. R. R. Tolkien
I had a funny feeling as I saw the house disappear, as though I had written a poem and it was very good and I had lost it and would never remember it again. Raymond Chandler
Robert Green Ingersoll quote: "Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was..."
Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words. Robert Green Ingersoll
A. A. Milne quote: "I don’t feel very much like Pooh today," said Pooh. "There..."
I don’t feel very much like Pooh today," said Pooh. "There there," said Piglet. "I’ll bring you tea and honey until you do. A. A. Milne
In the last days before the attack a strange feeling, not so much of confidence as of fatalism, pervaded the German tank forces- if this strength, this enormous agglomeration that surrounded them on every side, could not break the Russians, then nothing would. Alan Clark
Alexis de Tocqueville quote: "everybody feels the evil, but no one has courage or energy..."
everybody feels the evil, but no one has courage or energy enough to seek the cure Alexis de Tocqueville
...with a rush of feeling he felt that this must be happiness. As soon as the thought came to him, he fought it back, blaming the whiskey. The very idea was as dangerous as presumptive speech: happiness could not be sought or worried into being, or even fully grasped; it should be allowed its own slow pace so that it passes unnoticed, if it ever comes at all. John McGahern
Plato quote: "For this feeling of wonder shows that you are a philosopher,..."
For this feeling of wonder shows that you are a philosopher, since wonder is the only beginning of philosophy. Plato
Nor do we merely feel these essences for one short hour no, even as these trees that whisper round a temple become soon dear as the temples self, so does the moon, the passion posey, glories infinite, Haunt us till they become a cheering light unto our souls and bound to us so fast, that wheather there be shine, or gloom o'er cast, They always must be with us, or we die. John Keats
Mr. Langdon, I did not ask if you believe what man says about God. I asked if you believed in God. There is a difference. Holy scripture is stories...legends and history of man's quest to understand his own need for meaning. I am not asking you to pass judgment on literature. I am asking if you believe in God.

The hole, and the box, and the rock on the grass? And we glamorize this process, feel it fitting and dramatic, austerely beautiful, standing there by the hole as we lower the box. It's... Dave Eggers
David Thewlis quote: "I want that. I want that awful intense and serious..."
I want that. I want that awful intense and serious unhappiness, cos then I might feel better, and then I might be happy. David Thewlis
