George Orwell quote: "What happens to you here is forever."
What happens to you here is forever. George Orwell
Customs change with time, so it isn't fair to permit change only when you happen to approve of it but condemn change citing biblical authority when you don't. Deepak Chopra
Our rational minds can never understand what has happened, but our hearts.. if we can keep them open to God, will find their own intuitive way. Ram Dass
Reports that say something hasn't happened are interesting to me, because as we know, there are known unknowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns? the ones we don't know we don't know. Donald Rumsfeld
This is our goal as writers, I think; to help others have this sense of--please forgive me--wonder, of seeing things anew, things that can catch us off guard, that break in on our small, bordered worlds. When this happens, everything feels more spacious. Try walking around with a child who's going, "Wow, wow! Look at that dirty dog! Look at that burned-down house! Look at that red sky!"

Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. John C. Maxwell
Even from the simplest, the most realistic point of view, the countrieswhich we long for occupy, at any given moment, a far larger place in our actual life than the country in which we happen to be. Marcel Proust
I was stuck in Port Ticonderoga, proud bastion of the common-and-garden variety button and of lower-priced long johns for the budget-minded shoppers. I would stagnate here, nothing would ever happen to me, I would end up an old-maid like Miss Violence, pitied and derided. This at the bottom was my fear. I wanted to be elsewhere, but I saw no way to get there. Once in a while, I found myself hoping that I would be abducted by white slavers, even though I didn't believe in them. At least it... Margaret Atwood
How does it happen that a writer who's not even very good - and I can say that, I've read four or five of his books - gets to be in charge of the world's destiny? Or of the entire universe's?"If he's not very good, why didn't you stop at one?"Mrs. Tassenbaum smiled. "Touch. He is readable, I'll give him that - tells a good story... Stephen King
As for the fact that Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle apeared to be going their different ways when they were usually inseparable, these things happened as people got older--Ron and Hermione, Harry reflected sadly, were living proof. J. K. Rowling
Hilaire Belloc quote: "Whatever happens, we have got. The Maxim gun, and they have not."
Whatever happens, we have got. The Maxim gun, and they have not. Hilaire Belloc
The childish and savage taste of men and women for new patterns keeps how many shaking and squinting through kaleidoscopes that they may discover the particular figure which this generation requires to-day. The manufacturers have learned that this taste is merely whimsical. Of two patterns which differ only by a few threads more or less of a particular color, the one will be sold readily, the other lie on the shelf, though it frequently happens that after the lapse of a season the latter...
