Keep Quotes (page 139)

The coldest most rational scientific madness is also the most intolerable. But when a man has acquired a certain ability to subsist, even rather scantily, in a certain niche with the help of a few grimaces, he must either keep at it or resign himself to dying the death of a guinea pig. Habits are acquired more quickly than courage, especially the habit of filling one's stomach. Louis-Ferdinand Celine
My hand is very tired but I want to go on writing. I keep resting and thinking. All day I have been two people - the me imprisoned in yesterday and the me out here on the mound; and now there is a third me trying to get in - the me in what is going to happen next. Dodie Smith
What I said yesterday didn't mean anything! I love everyone in the flock! Plus, it was the Valium talking!"Uh-huh. You just keep telling yourself that. You looove me."Max: (tries to punch him)"Pick a tree. I'll go carve our initials in it."Max: (screams and runs into bathroom) James Patterson
Nicholas Sparks quote: "How's it hangin' Harry? I keep trying to die, but they won't..."
How's it hangin' Harry? I keep trying to die, but they won't let me. Well, you can't have everything. Nicholas Sparks
It is very little to me to have the right to vote, to own property, etc., if I may not keep my body, and its uses, in my absolute right Alice Stone Blackwell
Only a crisis - actual or perceived - produces real change. When that crisis occurs, the actions that are taken depend on the ideas that are lying around. That, I believe, is our basic function: to develop alternatives to existing policies, to keep them alive and available until the politically impossible becomes the politically inevitable. Milton Friedman
Benjamin Franklin quote: "Ignorance leads men into a party, and shame keeps them from..."
Ignorance leads men into a party, and shame keeps them from getting out again. Benjamin Franklin
I really would like to stop working forever–never work again, never do anything like the kind of work I’m doing now–and do nothing but write poetry and have leisure to spend the day outdoors and go to museums and see friends. And I’d like to keep living with someone — maybe even a man — and explore relationships that way. And cultivate my perceptions, cultivate the visionary thing in me. Just a literary and quiet city-hermit existence. Allen Ginsberg
Clive Barker quote: "The sun rose like a stripper, keeping its glory well covered..."
The sun rose like a stripper, keeping its glory well covered by cloud till it seemed there'd be no show at all. Clive Barker
He had just settled in his mind what sort of palace he would have and how many cars and all about his private cinema and where the principal railways would run and what laws he would make against beavers and dams and putting the finishing touches to some schemes for keeping Peter in his place, when the weather changed. C. S. Lewis
Tom Robbins quote: "The trick is this: keep your eye on the ball. Even when you..."
The trick is this: keep your eye on the ball. Even when you can't see the ball. Tom Robbins
I am speaking now of the highest duty we owe our friends, the noblest, the most sacred--that of keeping their own nobleness, goodness, pure and incorrupt...If we let our friend become cold and selfish and exacting without remonstrance, we are no true lover, no true friend. Harriet Beecher Stowe
Whether in music or in fiction, the most basic thing is rhythm. Your style needs to have good, natural, steady rhythm, or people won't keep reading your work. Haruki Murakami
It's really fine that you found a good archivist to do the basically difficult and at times harrowing work of cleaning out old papers. I hope you keep her digging into all the old boxes as long as there is ONE left. M. F. K. Fisher
The human race, to which so many of my readers belong, has been playing at children's games from the beginning, and will probably do it till the end, which is a nuisance for the few people who grow up. And one of the games to which it is most attached is called "Keep to-morrow dark," and which is also named (by the rustics in Shropshire, I have no doubt) "Cheat the Prophet." The players listen very carefully and respectfully to all that the clever men have to say about what is to happen in... Gilbert K. Chesterton
