Knowing Quotes (page 610)

If you ask me how I want to be remembered, it is as a winner. You know what a winner is? A winner is somebody who has given his best effort, who has tried the hardest they possibly can, who has utilized every ounce of energy and strength within them to accomplish something. It doesn't mean that they accomplished it or failed, it means that they've given it their best. That's a winner. Walter Payton

All we have of freedom. All we use or know. This our fathers bought for us. Long and long ago Rudyard Kipling
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know “why” I look this way. I’ve traveled a long way and some of the roads weren’t paved. Will Rogers
You know what 'FEAR' stands for? It stands for 'False Evidence Appearing Real.' It's the darkroom where Satan develops his negatives. Gary Busey
Even where the affections are not strongly moved by any superior excellence, the companions of our childhood always possess a certain power over our minds which hardly any later friend can obtain. They know our infantine dispositions, which, however they may be afterwards modified, are never eradicated; and they can judge of our actions with more certain conclusions as to the integrity of our motives. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Like everyone else, I have my black list of unfavorite authors and critics, and among intimate friends I sometimes say exactly what I think of them, but I have the feeling that to express my opinions publicly would be in bad taste, that, to people whom one does not know personally, one should speak only of the authors and critics one is fond of. I find reading savage reviews like reading pornography; though I often enjoy them, I feel a bit ashamed of myself for doing so. Still, I must admit... W. H. Auden
A. A. Milne quote: "His dress told her nothing, but his face told her things which..."
His dress told her nothing, but his face told her things which she was glad to know. A. A. Milne
In your business or in your close relationships, if you want people to perform Herculean feats on your behalf, they must know that you care about them. George Foreman
Louis-Ferdinand Celine quote: "Well, you know... experience is a muffled lantern that throws..."
Well, you know... experience is a muffled lantern that throws light only on the bearer...it's incommunicable... Louis-Ferdinand Celine
Hold on, baby you're losing it. The water's high, you're jumping into it. And letting go...and no one knows. That you cry, but you don't tell anyone. That you might not be the golden one. And you're tied together with a smile. But you're coming undone Taylor Swift
In some situations, if you say nothing, you are called dull; if you talk, you are thought impertinent and arrogant. It is hard to know what to do in this case. The question seems to be, whether your vanity or your prudence predominates. William Hazlitt
Although who knows? Maybe this will be it, Katniss."What?" I ask."The time it sticks. Maybe we are witnessing the evolution of the human race. Think about that." And then he asks me if I'd like to perform on a new singing program he's launching in a few weeks. Something upbeat would be good. He'll send the crew to my house. Suzanne Collins
Some of us know how we came by our fortune, and some of us don't, but we wear it all the same. There's only one question worth asking now: How do we aim to live with it? Barbara Kingsolver
I've apparently been the victim of growing up, which apparently happens to all of us at one point or another. It's been going on for quite some time now, without me knowing it. I've found that growing up can mean a lot of things. For me, it doesn't mean I should become somebody completely new and stop loving the things I used to love. It means I've just added more things to my list. Taylor Swift
We can start working with time, if you wish, till you can fly the past and the future. And then you will be ready to begin the most difficult, the most powerful, the most fun of all. You will be ready to BEGIN to fly up and know the meaning of kindness and of love Richard Bach
