I Liked You Quotes (page 86)

You need to grab your dream out of the sky like it's a kite and pinch the string through your fingers until you reach the spool. Augusten Burroughs
You are like a chestnut burr, prickly outside, but silky-soft within, and a sweet kernel, if one can only get at it. Love will make you show your heart some day, and then the rough burr will fall off. Louisa May Alcott
You're sad because you're sad. It's psychic. It's the age. It's chemical. Go see a shrink or take a pill, or hug your sadness like an eyeless dollyou need to sleep. Well, all children are sadbut some get over it. Count your blessings. Better than that, buy a hat. Buy a coat or a pet. Take up dancing to forget. Margaret Atwood

You see it is likely that, when my brother told the story, that night when we got home and my mother and sister sat listening, I did not think he got the point. He was too young and so was I. A thing so complete has its own beauty. I shall not try to emphasize the point. I am only explaining why I was dissatisfied then and have been ever since. I speak of that only that you may understand why I have been impelled to try to tell the simple story over again. Sherwood Anderson
You're not aloneTogether we standI'll be by your side, you know I'll take your handWhen it gets coldAnd it feels like the endThere's no place to goYou know I won't give in Avril Lavigne
You ordinary people who read and do not write, who 'like to read' and know nothing of the sufferings of writers, how fortunate you are! Joyce Carol Oates
You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers."Why are you looking at me like a madman?"I have lost a friend. Please forgive me. Rumi
" You think I am attacking them for talking nonsense? Not a bit! I like them to talk nonsense. That's man's one privilege over all creation. Through error you come to the truth." --Crime and punishment, F. Dostoevsky Fyodor Dostoevsky
You got to knock a man down and put your knife at his throat before he'll hear you, like I did to that trooper. The truth seems hateful to most everybody. Thomas Berger
You all watched a sketch about feminism and you didn't even know it because of all the jokes. It's like when Jessica Seinfeld puts spinach in kids' brownies. Suckers! Tina Fey
