Impossibility Quotes (page 27)

As my father wrote, one's courage, hope, and spirit can be severely tried by the happenstance of life. But as I learned on this Virginia mountain, so long as one never loses faith, it is impossible to ever truly be alone. David Baldacci
There is no such thing as realistic dialogue. If you [simply recorded] the real conversation of any people and played it back from the stage, it would be impossible to listen to. It would be redundant . . . . The good dialogue writer is the one who can give you the impression of real speech. Joseph L. Mankiewicz
The Byronic hero, incapable of love, or capable only of an impossible love, suffers endlessly. He is solitary, languid, his condition exhausts him. If he wants to feel alive, it must be in the terrible exaltation of a brief and destructive action. Albert Camus
Even though you try to put people under control, it is impossible. You cannot do it. The best way to control people is to encourage them to be mischievous. Then they will be in control in a wider sense. To give your sheep or cow a large spacious meadow is the way to control him. So it is with people: first let them do what they want, and watch them. This is the best policy. To ignore them is not good. That is the worst policy. The second worst is trying to control them. The best one... Shunryu Suzuki
T. S. Eliot quote: "It is impossible to say just what I mean!"
It is impossible to say just what I mean! T. S. Eliot
I was thinking of people who say that happiness is impossible on earth. Look how hard they all try to find some joy in life. Look how they struggle for it. Why should any living creature exist in pain? By what conceivable right can anyone demand that a human being exist for anything but for his own joy? Every one of them wants it. Every part of him wants it. But they never find it. I wonder why. Ayn Rand
We're going to fight this battle with everything we have, and we will probably lose. But then we will fight it again, and we will lose a little less, for this battle will win us many supporters. And then we'll lose *again*. And *again*. And we will fight on. Because as hard as it is to win by fighting, it's impossible to win by doing nothing. Cory Doctorow
It is impossible, Bible in hand, to limit Christ's Church to one's own little community. It is everywhere, in all parts of the world; and whatever its external form, frequently changing, often impure, yet the gifts wherever received increase our riches. Abraham Kuyper
Is he really so much like the monster James tracked across Siberia?"Her eyes popped wide open, and then began flickering wildly from Edward to Seth to me, around and around."Not the same?" she snarled in her little girl's soprano. "Impossible! Stephenie Meyer
It was the kind of promise a father makes easily and sincerely, knowing at the same time that it will be impossible to keep. The truth of some promises is not as important as whether or not you can believe in them, with all your heart. A game of baseball can't really make a summer day last forever. A home run can't really heal all the broken places in our world, or in a single human heart. And there was no way that Mr. Feld could keep his promise never to leave Ethan again. All parents leave... Michael Chabon
Charlotte Bronte quote: "And I am a hard woman, -impossible to put off."
And I am a hard woman, -impossible to put off. Charlotte Bronte
But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realise their Personal Legend Paulo Coelho
Margaret Mitchell quote: "And apologies, once postponed, become harder and harder to..."
And apologies, once postponed, become harder and harder to make, and finally impossible. Margaret Mitchell
Gilbert K. Chesterton quote: "It is impossible without humility to enjoy anything - even pride."
It is impossible without humility to enjoy anything - even pride. Gilbert K. Chesterton

Sometimes I've believed more than six impossible things before breakfast. Lewis Carroll
