Goes On Quotes (page 5)

Does the giraffe know what he's for? Or care? Or even think about his place in things? A giraffe has a black tongue twenty-seven inches long and no vocal cords. A giraffe has nothing to say. He just goes on giraffing. Robert Fulghum
The sun of that chilishness goes on shining even when the larger bodies of hotter stars have risen to smelt you and cover you with their influence. The recenter stars may be more critical, more in the eye, but that earlier sun still remains a long time. Saul Bellow
I remember laughing with relief that the same old adolescent boredom goes on from generation to generation. ...the words took me back to my own years of stagnancy, and that terrible waiting for life to begin. [p. 68] Julian Barnes
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "But I tell you what it is; an honest and sensitive man is..."
But I tell you what it is; an honest and sensitive man is open; and a business man 'listens and goes on eating' you up. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Sonny Bono quote: "And the beat goes on..."
And the beat goes on... Sonny Bono
Patience is more than endurance. A saint's life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, and He stretches and strains, and every now and again the saint says--'I cannot stand anymore.' God does not heed, He goes on stretching till His purpose is in sight, then He lets fly. Trust yourself in God's hands. Maintain your relationship to Jesus Christ by the patience of faith. 'Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him. Oswald Chambers
Stephen King quote: "Ninety-eight percent of what goes on in people's heads is none..."

The swan who goes on living in its parents' tree will die; this is why those who are beautiful and talented bear the burden of finding their own way in the world. Arthur Golden
What you don't know don't hurt you, for it ain't real. They called that Idealism in my book I had when I was in college, and after I got hold of that principle I became an Idealist. I was a brass-bound Idealist in those days. If you are an Idealist it does not matter what you do or what goes on around you because it isn't real anyway. Robert Penn Warren
As life goes on it becomes tiring to keep up the character you invented for yourself, and so you relapse into individuality and become more like yourself everyday. Agatha Christie
Evelyn Waugh quote: "Never get mixed up in a Welsh wrangle. It doesn't end in blows..."
Never get mixed up in a Welsh wrangle. It doesn't end in blows like an Irish one, but goes on forever. Evelyn Waugh
when a person is lucky enough to live inside a story, to live inside an imaginary world, the pains of this world disappear. For as long as the story goes on, reality no longer exists. Paul Auster
Ursula K. Le Guin quote: "Other people's stories may become part of your own, the..."
Other people's stories may become part of your own, the foundation of it, the ground it goes on. Ursula K. Le Guin
...of all things this was the saddest, that life goes on: if one leaves one's lover, life should stop for him, and if one disappears from the world, then the world should stop, too: and it never did. And that was the real reason for most people getting up in the morning: not because it would matter but because it wouldn't. Truman Capote
It's a strange thing, how you can love somebody, how you can be all eaten up inside with needing them--and they simply don't need you. That's all there is to it, and neither of you can do anything about it. And they'll be the same way with someone else, and someone else will be the same way about you and it goes on and on--this desperate need--and only once in a rare million do the same two people need each other. Madeleine L'Engle
