Finding Myself Quotes (page 4)

To wake up one morning and feel that I was a last a grown-up person, emptied of resentment, vengeful thoughts and other wasteful childish emotions. To find myself, in other words, an adult. Truman Capote Truman Capote
You see I usually find myself among strangers because I drift here and there trying to forget the sad things that happened to me. F. Scott Fitzgerald
I find myself at the extremity of a long beach. How gladly does the spirit leap forth, and suddenly enlarge its sense of being to the full extent of the broad, blue, sunny deep! A greeting and a homage to the Sea! I descend over its margin, and dip my hand into the wave that meets me, and bathe my brow. That far-resounding roar is the Ocean's voice of welcome. His salt breath brings a blessing along with it Nathaniel Hawthorne

Doug Coupland quote: "Compromise is said to be the way of the world and yet I find..."
Compromise is said to be the way of the world and yet I find myself feeling sick trying to accept what it has done to me. Doug Coupland
I shift on to my side and find myself looking directly into Gale's eyes. For an instant the world recedes and there is just his flushed face, his pulse visible at his temple, his lips slightly parted as he tries to catch his breath. Suzanne Collins
Pat Conroy quote: "I will always find myself a prisoner to the divine sublimity..."
I will always find myself a prisoner to the divine sublimity of the Eucharist itself." (201) Pat Conroy
Unused to the situations in which I find myself, and embarassed by the slightest difficulties, I seldom discover, till too late, how I ought to act. Fanny Burney
I am not a terribly physical person. Helen wasn't either. We'd never hugged or even shaken hands, so it was odd to find myself rubbing her bare shoulder and then her back. It was, I though, like stroking some sort of sea creature, the flesh slick and fatty beneath my palms. In my memory, there was something on the stove, a cauldron of tomato gravy, and the smell of it mixed with the camphor of the Tiger Balm. The windows were steamed, Tony Bennett was on the radio, and saying, 'Please,' her... David Sedaris
I have come to realize that destiny can hurt a person as much as it can bless them, and I find myself wondering why--out of all the people in all the world I could ever have loved--I had to fall in love with someone who was taken away from me. Nicholas Sparks
