Life Quotes (page 609)

I'm simply interested in what is going to happen next. I don't think I can control my life or my writing. Every other writer I know feels he is steering himself, and I don't have that feeling. I don't have that sort of control. I'm simply becoming. I'm startled that I became a writer. Kurt Vonnegut
Tobias Wolff quote: "a true piece of writing is a dangerous thing. It can change..."

Henri Nouwen quote: "People who read your ideas tend to think that your writings..."
People who read your ideas tend to think that your writings reflect your life. Henri Nouwen
I was starting to wonder if I was ready to be a writer, not someone who won prizes, got published and was given the time and space to work, but someone who wrote as a course of life. Maybe writing wouldn't have any rewards. Maybe the salvation I would gain through work would only be emotional and intellectual. Wouldn't that be enough, to be a waitress who found an hour or two hidden in every day to write? Ann Patchett
Deepak Chopra quote: "The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness."
The purpose of life is the expansion of happiness. Deepak Chopra
He drew the dagger and laid it on the table between them; a length of dragonbone and Valyrian steel, as sharp as the difference between right and wrong, between true and false, between life and death. George R. R. Martin
The ties that bind us to life are tougher than you imagine, or than any one can who has not felt how roughly they may be pulled without breaking. Anne Bronte
Jimmy Buffett quote: "One of the inescapable encumbrances of leading an interesting..."
One of the inescapable encumbrances of leading an interesting life is that there have to be moments when you almost lose it. Jimmy Buffett
People come, people go – they’ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past. Nicholas Sparks
Tyler Perry quote: "You can't build your life around hurts from the past" -Tyler..."
You can't build your life around hurts from the past" -Tyler Perry The Family That Preys Tyler Perry
Our great human adventure is the evolution of consciousness. We are in this life to enlarge the soul, liberate the spirit, and light up the brain. Tom Robbins
We have all forgotten what we really are. All that we call common sense and rationality and practicality and positivism only means that for certain dead levels of our life we forget that we have forgotten. All that we call spirit and art and ecstasy only means that for one awful instant we remember that we forget. Gilbert K. Chesterton
…when writing, always hook the reader with your first sentence…in love, never settle…value yourself first and this will help you to value others…life is short, so enjoy it to the fullest…everyone in the world is different, and that’s ok… Spider Robinson
I’ve met a man and fallen in love with him. I allowed myself to fall in love for one simple reason: I’m not expecting anything to come of it. I know that, in three months’ time, I’ll be far away and he’ll be just a memory, but I couldn’t stand living without love any longer; I had reached my limit… Generally speaking, these meetings occur when we reach a limit, when we need to die and be reborn emotionally. These meeting are waiting for us, but more often than not, we avoid them happening.... Paulo Coelho
