Lasting Quotes (page 165)

At last he stood staring at the old Reuben Golding he thought he knew so well, and neither had a word for the other that mattered. Anne Rice
Jeff Foxworthy quote: "If you think the last four words to the national anthem are "..."
If you think the last four words to the national anthem are " gentleman, start your engines", You might be a redneck. Jeff Foxworthy
Sarah Vowell quote: "Why is America the last best hope of Earth? What if it's..."
Why is America the last best hope of Earth? What if it's Liechtenstein? Or, worse, Canada? Sarah Vowell
What are we all looking for? Happiness? One knows that doesn't last. Distraction, perhaps distraction from the ugly facts: that there is death, there is disease, there is impotence and senility ahead David Lodge
I'm about to fuck up, he thought clearly, and his next thought was, but I don't have to. This was followed closely by a third thought, the last of this familiar sequence, which was, but I'm going to anyway. Richard Russo
Paulo Coelho quote: "Don't live every day as if it were your last. Live every day..."
Don't live every day as if it were your last. Live every day as if it were your first. Paulo Coelho
It goes on, he thought. The internecine hate. Perhaps the seeds are there, in that. They will eat one another at last, and leave the rest of us here and there in the world, still alive. Still enough of us once more to build and hope and make a few simple plans. Philip K. Dick
Well, that dog was all Diamond had. When you love something, you can’t just sit by and not do anything.’ ‘I suppose it may be God’s way of telling us to love people while they’re here, because tomorrow they may be gone. I guess that’s a pretty sorry answer, but I’m afraid it’s the only one I’ve got.’ ‘You’re wise beyond your years. And what you say makes perfect sense. But I think when it comes to matters of the heart, perfect sense may be last thing you want to listen to.’ - Cotton... David Baldacci
I agree, it is a pity I never saw the pfifltriggi at home. I know nearly enough about them to "fake" a visit to them as an episode in the story, but I don't think we ought to introduce any mere fiction. "True in substance" sounds all very well on earth, but I can't imagine myself explaining it to Oyarsa, and I have a shrewd suspicion (see my last letter) that I have not heard the end of him. Anyway, why should our "readers" (you seem to know the devil of a lot about them!) who are so... C. S. Lewis
After all, when we were children, when things went wrong, there wasn’t much we could do to help put it right. But now we’re adults, now we can. That’s the thing, you see? Look at us, Akira. After all this time, we can finally put things right. Remember, old chap, how we used to play those games? Over and over? How we used to pretend we were detectives searching for my father? Now we’re grown, we can at last put things right. Kazuo Ishiguro
Defeat is a momentary thing. A defeat doesn't last. We were defeated and now we attack. Defeat means nothing. Can't you understand that? Do you know what they are whispering behind doors? John Steinbeck
Jeanette Winterson quote: "Didn't they like you? Didn't they, like you, need a heart that..."
Didn't they like you? Didn't they, like you, need a heart that was a book with no last page? Turn the leaves. Jeanette Winterson
Pain fades,” I said slowly. “But being a nutcase seems to stick around. Guess who got the better deal here?” The last thing I remember is Mr. Chu’s face blazing with fury. James Patterson
Okay, yeah, he staggered back and fell into the condiments. Big deal. There wasn't any blood. I didn't even get him in the face. He saw my fist coming, and at the last minute he ducked, so instead of punching him in the nose, like I intended, I ended up punching him in the neck. I highly doubt it even left a bruise. Meg Cabot
Jean Rhys quote: "Now at last I know why I was brought here and what I have to do."
Now at last I know why I was brought here and what I have to do. Jean Rhys
