Little Quotes (page 165)

People think of life as being so sacred and they feel like this is their only chance and they have to do something with their life and make an impact As far as I'm concerned, it's just a pitstop for the afterlife. It's just a little test to see how you can handle reality. Kurt Cobain
When you love someone you do not love them, all the time, in the exact same way, from moment to moment. It is an impossibility. It is a lie to pretend to. And yet this is exactly what most of us demand. We have so little faith in the ebb and flow of life, of love, of relationships. Anne Morrow Lindbergh
I had no desire to have either dreams or adventures like Alice, and the amount of them merely amused me. I had very little desire to look for buried treasure or fight pirates, and Treasure Island left me cool. Red Indians were better: there were bows and arrows (I had and have a wholly unsatisfied desire to shoot well with a bow), and strange languages, and glimpses of an archaic mode of life, and, above all, forests in such stories. But the land of Merlin and Arthur was better than these,... J. R. R. Tolkien
It just wasn't for me, and anyway, those people were a lot more far gone than I was. More in my father's league than mine. I just cut back a little. Less beer and liquor, more jogging. I was fine. Wally Lamb
Students and scholars of all kinds and of every age aim, as a rule, only at information, not insight. They make it a point of honour to have information about everything, every stone, plant, battle, or experiment and about all books, collectively and individually. It never occurs to them that information is merely a means to insight, but in itself is of little or no value. Arthur Schopenhauer
Because of something she heard in school, Corrie asked her father what "sex sin" was while the two of them were riding on a train together. The father asked the little girl to carry his bag off the train. When she admitted that she could not do so, he said he would not be much of a father to expect this of her. The load was too heavy. This was the case, he said, with some knowledge. She needed to trust her father to give her knowledge at the right time. Corrie Ten Boom
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little..."
You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little bit. And then it turns out some other way. Chuck Palahniuk
Jane Austen quote: "His temper might perhaps be a little soured [...]'Mr. Palmer..."
His temper might perhaps be a little soured [...]'Mr. Palmer is just the kind of man I like, Jane Austen
I dare not always touch her, lest the kiss leave my lips charred. Yea, Lord, a little bliss, brief bitter bliss, one hath for a great sin; Nathless thou knowest how sweet a thing it is. Algernon Charles Swinburne
M. Myriel had to undergo the fate of every newcomer in a little town, where there are many mouths which talk, and very few heads which think. Victor Hugo
Soren Kierkegaard quote: "People understand me so little that they do not even..."
People understand me so little that they do not even understand when I complain of being misunderstood. Soren Kierkegaard
Jose Saramago quote: "Forgive me if what has seemed little to you, to me is all."
Forgive me if what has seemed little to you, to me is all. Jose Saramago
F. Franklin the Fourth has a job with a firm rich in heritage, money and pretentiousness, a firm vastly superior to Brodnax and Speer. His sidekicks at the moment are W. Harper Whittenson, an arrogant little snot who will, thankfully, leave Memphis and practice with a mega-firm in Dallas; J. Townsend Gross, who has accepted a position with another huge firm; and James Straybeck, a sometimes friendly sort who's suffered three years of law school without an initial to place before his name or ... John Grisham
Martin Luther quote: "Jerome has merited hell rather than heaven for it-so little..."
Jerome has merited hell rather than heaven for it-so little would I dare to recognize or call him a saint. Martin Luther
George R. R. Martin quote: "The little man gave the big one a look. One of his eyes was..."
The little man gave the big one a look. One of his eyes was green, one was black, and both were cool. George R. R. Martin
