Gives Quotes (page 253)

She did not come to him, however. She has never come to me, he tough. She has always waited, letting me come to her. She gives, but I must ask. George R. R. Martin
Seems to me it ain't the world that's so bad but what we're doing to it, and all I'm saying is: see what a wonderful world it would be if only we'd give it a chance. Love, baby - love. That's the secret. Louis Armstrong
Don't give anybody up. . . or leave anybody out. . . . There's room for everything, and time for everybody, if you take your day the way it comes along and try not to be much later than you can help."--Spoken by Jack to Gloria Eudora Welty
Jane Austen quote: "She knew that when she played she was giving pleasure only to..."
She knew that when she played she was giving pleasure only to herself; but this was no new sensation Jane Austen
Have you at any time been detained in a mental home or similar institution? If so, give particulars.''I was at Scone College, Oxford, for two years,' said Paul. Evelyn Waugh
Life is fury, he'd thought. Fury? sexual, Oedipal, political, magical, brutal? drives us to our finest heights and coarsest depths. Out of furia comes creation, inspiration, originality, passion, but also violence, pain, pure unafraid destruction, the giving and receiving of blows from which we never recover. The Furies pursue us; Shiva dances his furious dance to create and also to destroy. But never mind about gods! Sara ranting at him represented the human spirit in its purest, least... Salman Rushdie
That's five friends, one each for Jesu's wounds, and Godric bears their mark still on what's left of him as in their time they all bore his on them. What's friendship, when all's done, but the giving and taking of wounds? Frederick Buechner
And death shall have no dominion. Under the windings of the sea. They lying long shall not die windily; Twisting on racks when sinews give way, Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break; Faith in their hands shall snap in two, And the unicorn evils run them through; Split all ends up they shan't crack; And death shall have no dominion. Dylan Thomas
Don't talk about it. The rose doesn't have to propagate its perfume. It just gives it forth, and people are drawn to it. Live it, and people will come to see the source of your power. Mahatma Gandhi
The corporations that profit from permanent war need us to be afraid. Fear stops us from objecting to government spending on a bloated military. Fear means we will not ask unpleasant questions of those in power. Fear permits the government to operate in secret. Fear means we are willing to give up our rights and liberties for promises of security. The imposition of fear ensures that the corporations that wrecked the country cannot be challenged. Fear keeps us penned in like livestock. Chris Hedges
Charles Dickens quote: "The happiness he gives is quite as great, as if it cost a..."
The happiness he gives is quite as great, as if it cost a fortune. Charles Dickens
We give violent movies a pass but come down hard on a rapper like Scarface, who is ultimately a storyteller just like Brian de Palma. And neither of them is responsible for the poverty and violence that really do shape people's lives--not to mention their individual choices. Jay-Z
Voltaire quote: "Come! you presence will either give me life or kill me with..."
Come! you presence will either give me life or kill me with pleasure. Voltaire
Billy Graham quote: "A real Christian is the one who can give his pet parrot to the..."
A real Christian is the one who can give his pet parrot to the town gossip. Billy Graham
I had to persuade a dog to swallow a pill. I twittered for advice and I got suggestion after suggestion. Most of them didn't work. 'Put the pill in the sausage.' No - that doesn't work. 'Cheese.' No. Then someone said: 'You wrap it in butter and it will slide down.'I tried it and it worked! And I'd learnt how to give a pill to a dog through the magic of Twitter. Neil Gaiman
