For The Day Quotes (page 57)

It's like there's this wave coming toward me, but there's nothing I can do about it. And then it reaches me, crashes over me and...and I'm done for another day. I just give up. Give in to it. Because how do you stop a wave? You don't. And you're wise to recognize your powerlessness to do so. But what you can do is learn how to negotiate this wave. Work within the context of its inevitability. Wally Lamb
When we are born, when we enter this world, it is as if we signed a pact for the rest of our life, but a day may come when we will ask ourselves Who signed this on my behalf? Jose Saramago
If in this hell of a world one can bring a little joy and peace even for a day into the heart of a single person, that much alone is true; this I have learnt after suffering all my life; all else is mere moonshine. . . . Swami Vivekananda
Jorge Luis Borges quote: "It means much to have loved, to have been happy, to have laid..."
It means much to have loved, to have been happy, to have laid my hand on the living Garden, even for a day. Jorge Luis Borges
I'd stay there, or not, and I'd eat, or not, and I'd drink, or not, and go home, or not, and what I did or didn't do wouldn't matter to anyone at all. And I walked for most of the day. Do people get sad on holiday sometimes? I can imagine they do, having all that time to think. Nick Hornby
You keep waiting for the moral of your life to become obvious, but it never does. Work, work, work: No moral. No plot. No eureka! Just production schedules and days. You might as well be living inside a photocopier. Your lives are all they're ever going to be. Doug Coupland
Bob Marley quote: "Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the..."
Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the days of your life. Bob Marley
Karl Rahner quote: "In the days ahead, you will either be a mystic (one who has..."
In the days ahead, you will either be a mystic (one who has experienced God for real) or nothing at all. Karl Rahner
My tendency to make up stories and lie compulsively for the sake of my own amusement takes up a good portion of my day and provides me with a peace of mind not easily attainable in this economic climate. Chelsea Handler
Albert Camus quote: "Do not wait for the last judgment. It comes every day."
Do not wait for the last judgment. It comes every day. Albert Camus
Human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but ... life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
but all day long I would be training myself to think, to understand, to criticize, to know myself; I was seeking for the absolute truth: this preoccupation did not exactly encourage polite conversation. Simone de Beauvoir
Albert Camus quote: "I shall tell you a great secret my friend. Do not wait for the..."
I shall tell you a great secret my friend. Do not wait for the last judgment, it takes place every day. Albert Camus
Dear as remembered kisses after death, And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feign'd. On lips that are for others; deep as love, Deep as first love, and wild with all regret; O Death in Life, the days that are no more! Alfred Lord Tennyson
I've always made it a rule to have a suit for every day of the week. Perhaps you'll tell me I'm vain, but you'd be surprised if you knew what it had meant to me, at critical moments of my life, to be dressed exactly in accordance with my mood. It gives one such confidence, I think. Christopher Isherwood
