His Quotes (page 7)

His submissive death was the surest proof that he wholly believed the faith he had lived. He had no regrets or misgivings. "One world at a time," he said to Channing, who was speculating on the hereafter. When someone else inquired whether he had made his peace with God, he answered, "We have never quarreled. Brooks Atkinson
His hand closed automatically around the fake Horcrux but in spite of everything, in spite of the dark and twisting path he saw stretching ahead for himself, in spite of the final meeting with Voldemort he knew must come whether in a month in a year or in ten, he felt his heart lift at the thought that there was still one last golden day of peace left to enjoy with Ron and Hermione. J. K. Rowling
His [George MacDonald]lungs were diseased and his poverty was very great. Literal starvation was sometimes averted only by those last minute deliverances which agnostics attribute to chance and Christians to providence. C. S. Lewis in INTRODUCTION to George MacDonald's LILITH. C. S. Lewis
John Keats quote: "His old right hand lay nerveless, listless, dead,Unsceptred;..."
His old right hand lay nerveless, listless, dead,Unsceptred; and his realmless eyes were closed; John Keats
His eyes did not track when they were talking, and when he blinked, which wasn't often, she could count to three before his eyelids touched. Daniel Waters
His question reminded me of how easy he had been to deceive, so easy that he seemed to me almost a conniver at his wife's unfaithfulness, as the man who leaves loose banknotes in a hotel bedroom connives at theft, and I hated him for the very quality which had once helped my love. Graham Greene
His universal compassion was due less to natural instinct, than to a profound conviction, a sum of thoughts that in the course of living had filtered through to his heart: for in the nature of man, as in rock, there may be channels hollowed by the dropping of water, and these can never be destroyed. Victor Hugo
A. A. Milne quote: "His dress told her nothing, but his face told her things which..."
His dress told her nothing, but his face told her things which she was glad to know. A. A. Milne
His face was sad and stern because of the doom that was laid on him, and yet hope dwelt ever in the depths of his heart, from which mirth would arise at times like a spring from a rock. J. R. R. Tolkien
His failure hurt too badly for that. It was a bad equation. Best erase it and try a new one. If adults could put aside their obsessions with such firmness, the world would undoubtedly be a better place. Robertson Davies does not say that in his Deptford Trilogy ... but he strongly hints at it. Stephen King
His chest heaved once, as if his large heart, weary of despotic constriction, had expanded, despite the will, and made a vigorous bound for the attainment of liberty. Charlotte Bronte
George R. R. Martin quote: "His time was past, her handmaid Irri declared. No man should..."
His time was past, her handmaid Irri declared. No man should live longer than his teeth. George R. R. Martin
His mother is dead, yet she has never not been, in theory, at his shoulder. He wants her not to have known and suffered or even witnessed all the things that followed her death. Including all this now. But that would be like wishing her dead. Merely dead. Graham Swift
George Orwell quote: "His answer to every problem, every setback, was "I will work..."
His answer to every problem, every setback, was "I will work harder!"-which he had adopted as his personal motto. George Orwell
His management philosophy, tempered in his rain-dancing days, was always to give the project to whoever had the most to gain from success--or the most to lose from failure. Michael Crichton
