Quotes For Him (page 351)

Yes, Mo would come. Meggie could think of nothing else as Fenoglio led her away with him, his arm around her as if he could really protect her from Capricorn and Basta and all the others. But he couldn't. Would Mo be able to protect her? Of course not. He mustn't come, she thought. Please. Perhaps he won't be able to find his way in again! He mustn't come. Yet there was nothing she wanted more, nothing in the whole wide world. Cornelia Funke
Mature as he was, she might yet be able to help him to the building of the rainbow bridge that should connect the prose in us with the passion. Without it we are meaningless fragments, half monks, half beasts, unconnected arches that have never joined into a man. E. M. Forster
Aristotle quote: "Nobody will be afraid who believes nothing can happen to him."
Nobody will be afraid who believes nothing can happen to him. Aristotle
Say who you are, really say it in your life and in your work. Tell someone out there who is lost, someone not yet born, someone who won’t be born for 500 years. Your writing will be a record of your time. It can’t help but be that. But more importantly, if you’re honest about who you are, you’ll help that person be less lonely in their world because that person will recognise him or herself in you and that will give them hope. Charlie Kaufman
In the evening they went to say good-bye to Bilbo. 'Well, if you must go, you must,' he said. 'I am sorry. I shall miss you. It is nice just to know that you are about the place. But I am getting very sleepy.' Then he gave Frodo his mithril-coat and Sting, forgetting that he had already done so; and he gave him also three books of lore that he had made at various times, written in his spidery hand, and labelled on their red backs: Translations from the Elvish, by B. B. J. R. R. Tolkien
Jane Austen quote: "My dear Mr. Bennet," said his lady to him one day, "have you..."
My dear Mr. Bennet," said his lady to him one day, "have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last? Jane Austen
His bit of pencil turned up in the seat pocket of his short trousers, but as the search for the pad continued without issue a crease appeared in the boy's domed brow. He patted himself up and down until filaments of honey floss formed between his fingertips and pockets, coating him in a gossamer down. The old man watched helpless as the boy, with mounting agitation, spun threads of loss from his palms and fingertips. Michael Chabon
To Morgan, the disfigurement of his monstrous nose was the touch of God upon him, the assurance of mortality. It was the steadiest assurance he had. E. L. Doctorow
The exceptions were two men a little ahead of them, standing just outside the Three Broomsticks. One was very tall and thin; squinting through his rain-washed glasses Harry recognized the barman who worked in the other Hogsmeade pub, the Hog’s Head. As Harry, Ron, and Hermione drew closer, the barman drew his cloak more tightly around his neck and walked away, leaving the shorter man to fumble with something in his arms. They were barely feet from him when Harry realized who the man... J. K. Rowling
P. G. Wodehouse quote: "Birds, except when broiled and in the society of a cold..."
Birds, except when broiled and in the society of a cold bottle, bored him stiff. P. G. Wodehouse
Thomas Hardy quote: "Love is an utterly bygone, sorry, worn-out, miserable thing..."
Love is an utterly bygone, sorry, worn-out, miserable thing with me- for him or anyone else. Thomas Hardy
Vera Brittain quote: "[I] wondered if he was looking up at that same moon, far away,..."
[I] wondered if he was looking up at that same moon, far away, and thinking of me as I was thinking of him. Vera Brittain
I'd underestimated him. I assumed anyone who started out gut-punching you in an elevator couldn't have all that much else in his arsenal. For instance, I had no idea he could smile, let alone at such an inappropriate time. Jonathan Lethem
Let us not ask for miracles, let us not ask for concern with what is good for the country of him who comes as a stranger to make his fortune and leave afterwards. Jose Rizal
Faith is the commitment of one's consciousness to beliefs for which one has no sensory evidence or rational proof. When man rejects reason as his standard of judgement, only one alternative standard remains to him: his feelings. A mystic is a man who treats his feelings as tools of cognition. Faith is the equation of feelings with knowledge Nathaniel Branden
