I Liked You Quotes (page 28)

But when you’re a kid it’s like you’re wearing these binoculars strapped to your eyes and you can’t see anything except what’s in the dead center of the lenses Russell Banks
When she comes. She pulls you close. She breathes in short bursts. Her eyes close. Her head tilts back. Her mouth opens slightly. Her thighs turn to steel, and then melt. She is perfect. And you feel like you are everything. Henry Rollins
My teacher in first grade said that long ago people used to believe all kinds of things, because they didn't know any better. Like you shouldn't take a bath, because it could make you sick. And then someone saw germs under a microscope and started to think differently. You can believe something really hard, and still be wrong. (Faith White) Jodi Picoult
Carlo is safe because I don't really love him that much. If he stopped wanting me around one day, it wouldn't be so terrible. I wouldn't die. Hallie, I realize how that sounds. I feel small and ridiculous and hemmed in on every side by the need to be safe. All I want is to be like you, to walk into a country of chickens and land mines and call that home, and have it be home. How do you just charge ahead, always doing the right thing, even if you have to do it alone with people staring? Barbara Kingsolver
Never have your wallet with you onstage. It's bad luck. You shouldn't play the piano with money in your pocket. Play like you need the money. Tom Waits (to me, about 1986 or so) Tom Waits
It's the greatest shot of adrenaline to be doing what you have wanted to do so badly. You almost feel like you could fly without a plane. Charles Lindbergh
It was that kind of a crazy afternoon, terrifically cold, and no sun out or anything, and you felt like you were disappearing every time you crossed a road. J. D. Salinger
Mickey Spillane quote: "Guys like you can't escape the city. Hell, you a got a blood..."
Guys like you can't escape the city. Hell, you a got a blood contract with this place. You're married to the old girl. Mickey Spillane
Sara: "You are so brave," I tell her, and then I smile. "When I grow up, I want to be just like you."To my surprise, Kate shakes her head hard. Her voice is a feather, a thread. "No Mommy," she says. "You'd be sick. Jodi Picoult
And I apologize to all of you who are the same age as my grandchildren. And many of you reading this are the same age as my grandchildren. They, like you, are being royally shafted and lied to by our Baby Boomer corporations and government. Kurt Vonnegut
Tell me I'm a sinner I got news for you. I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you! Don't you try and teach me no original sin; I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in Ozzy Osbourne
One who contended that a poem was nothing but black marks on white paper would be unanswerable if he addressed an audience who couldn't read. Look at it through microscopes, analyse the printer's ink and the paper, study it (in that way) as long as you like; you will never find something over and above all the products of analysis whereof you can say "This is the poem." Those who can read, however, will continue to say the poem exists. C. S. Lewis
There was a difference between people looking at you because they wanted to be like you, and people looking at you because your misfortune brought them one rung higher. Jodi Picoult
There's an expression, deja vu, that means that you feel like you've been somewhere before, that you've somehow already dreamed it or experienced it in your mind. Neil Gaiman
Maybe I don't need a relationship after all, she thought. Maybe thinking about these conversations was just as good as having them. She could sit in her Honda in the dark and experience whatever kind of life she wanted. Sometimes you think, Hey, maybe there's something else out there. But there really isn't. This is what being alive feels like, you know? The place doesn't matter. You just live. Chuck Klosterman
