Hurrying Quotes (page 5)

Leo hurried up to bed and hid under the covers. Under the covers he thought his life through. Although he soon fell asleep he could not sleep her out of his mind. He woke, beating his breast. Though he prayed to be rid of her, his prayers went unanswered. Through days of torment he endlessly struggled not to love her; fearing success, he escaped it. He then concluded to convert her to goodness, himself to God. The idea alternately nauseated and exalted him. Bernard Malamud

Herman Hesse quote: "In fear I hurried this way and that. I had the taste of blood..."
In fear I hurried this way and that. I had the taste of blood and chocolate in my mouth, the one as hateful as the other. Herman Hesse
Psychoanalysis provides truth in an infantile, that is, a schoolboy fashion: we learn from it, roughly and hurriedly, things that scandalize us and thereby command our attention. It sometimes happens, and such is the case here, that a simplification touching upon the truth, but cheaply, is of no more value than a lie. Once again we are shown the demon and the angel, the beast and the god locked in Manichean embrace, and once again man has been pronounced, by himself, not culpable. Stanislaw Lem

We find real joy when we make the Savior the focus of the season. We can keep Him in our thoughts and in our lives as we go about the work He would have us perform here on earth. At this time, particularly, let us follow His example as we love and serve our fellowman. Thomas S. Monson
If you are in love — that’s a good thing — that’s about the best thing that can happen to anyone. Don’t let anyone make it small or light to you. […] If it is right, it happens — The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away. John Steinbeck

Why are you always in such a hurry, Mr. Lipwig? Terry Prachett
