Happen Quotes (page 161)

But indefinite visions of ambition are weak against the ease of doing what is habitual or beguilingly agreeable; and we all know the difficulty of carrying out a resolve when we secretly long that it may turn out to be unnecessary. In such states of mind the most incredulous person has a private leaning towards miracle: impossible to conceive how our wish could be fulfilled, still - very wonderful things have happened! George Eliot
Bob Dylan sang about a hard rain that was going to fall, and Shadow wondered if that rain had fallen yet, or if it was something that was still going to happen. Neil Gaiman
Nelson Mandela quote: "One cannot be prepared for something while secretly believing..."
One cannot be prepared for something while secretly believing it will not happen. Nelson Mandela
Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a self-starter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail. Og Mandino
Michael Chabon quote: "The leaves of this enormous tree, those are the million places..."
The leaves of this enormous tree, those are the million places where life lives and things happen and creatures come and go. Michael Chabon
Leopards break into the temple and drink all the sacrificial vessels dry; it keeps happening; in the end, it can be calculated in advance and is incorporated into the ritual. Franz Kafka
R. L. Stine quote: "I've had a very sheltered life. What can happen to you if you..."
I've had a very sheltered life. What can happen to you if you stay home writing all day? R. L. Stine
Don't you think it's strange that life, described as so rich and full, a camel-trail of adventure, should shrink to this coin-sized world? A head on one side, a story on the other. Someone you loved and what happened. That's all there is when you dig in your pockets. The most significant thing is someone else's face. What else is embossed on your hands but her? Jeanette Winterson
He wondered reflectively what would happen if you asked a nun where the. Gents was. Probably the Pope sent you a sharp note or something. Neil Gaiman
Everything will happen as was written by the Lord," replied the prophet. "There are moments when tribulations occur in our lives, and we cannot avoid them. But they are there for some reason."What reason?"That is a question we cannot answer before, or even during the trials. Only when we have overcome them do we understand why they were there. Paulo Coelho
And that is enough to raise your thoughts to what may happen when the redeemed soul, beyond all hope and nearly beyond belief, learns at last that she has pleased Him whom she was created to please. There will be no room for vanity then. She will be free from the miserable illusion that it is her doing. With no taint of what we should now call self-approval she will most innocently rejoice in the thing that God has made her to be, and the moment which heals her old inferiority complex forever... C. S. Lewis
Most people who offer their help do it to make themselves feel better, not us. To be honest, I don't blame them. It's superstition: If you give assistance to the family in need... if you throw salt over your shoulder... if you don't step on the cracks, then maybe you'll be immune. Maybe you'll be able to convince yourself that this could never happen to you. Jodi Picoult
But there are things that happen between a man and a woman in the dark -- that sort of make everything else seem -- unimportant. Tennessee Williams
David Lynch quote: "I like to remember things my own way. How I remembered them,..."
I like to remember things my own way. How I remembered them, not necessarily the way they happened. David Lynch
And something happened in Katie's heart, and she realized it wasn't just two people being joined together, not even two families. She felt as if she were joining hands with everyone who'd done this before her, just as she'd done after giving birth to Jacob, a feeling that she finally belonged, that she was part of the whole enterprise, a brick in that great arch which rose out of the dark behind you and swung over your head and curved into the future, and she was helping to keep it strong and...
