Little Quotes (page 269)

He liked to feel the soft little hand clasping his own fingers, so big and coarse in comparison, and happily so strong. For in the child's weakness he felt an infinite pathos; a being so entirely helpless, so utterly dependent upon others' love, standing there amid a world of cruelties, smiling and trustful. George Gissing
Suzanne Collins quote: "Anyway, even if she's sugarcoating my good points, I..."
Anyway, even if she's sugarcoating my good points, I appreciate it. Frankly, I could use a little sugarcoating. Suzanne Collins
Dogs don't like me. It is a simple law of the universe, like gravity. I am not exaggerating when I say that I have never passed a dog that didn't act as if it thought I was about to take its Alpo. Dogs that have not moved from the sofa in years will, at the sniff of me passing outside, rise in fury and hurl themselves at shut windows. I have seen tiny dogs, no bigger than a fluffy slipper, jerk little old ladies off their feet and drag them over open ground in a quest to get at my blood and... Bill Bryson
Behind it was that vast suspension bridge which always troubles me because it reminds me that in this mechanized age I am as little able to understand my environment as any primitive woman who thinks that a waterfall is inhabited by a spirit, and indeed less so, for her opinion might from a poetical point of view be correct. Rebecca West
Millions call themselves by His name, it is true, and pay some token homage to Him, but a simple test will show how little He is really honored among them. Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who or what is ABOVE, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time. Those other things will be... Aiden Wilson Tozer
Think not of the amount to be accomplished, the difficulties to be overcome, or the end to be attained, but set earnestly, at the little task at your elbow, letting that be sufficient for the day. William Osler
Life itself is too great a miracle for us to make so much fuss about potty little reversals of what we pompously assume to be the natural order. Robertson Davies
Michel de Montaigne quote: "One must be a little foolish if one does not want to be even..."
One must be a little foolish if one does not want to be even more stupid. Michel de Montaigne
Erich Segal quote: "Her handwriting was curious small sharp little letters with..."
Her handwriting was curious small sharp little letters with no capitals (who did she think she was, e. e. cummings?). Erich Segal
William Shakespeare quote: "Cut him out in little stars."
Cut him out in little stars. William Shakespeare
My little beast, my eyes, my favorite stolen egg. Listen. To live is to be marked. To live is to change, to acquire the words of a story, and that is the only celebration we mortals really know. In perfect stillness, frankly, I’ve only found sorrow. Barbara Kingsolver
Mason Cooley quote: "Children pay little attention to their parents' teachings, but..."
Children pay little attention to their parents' teachings, but reproduce their characters faithfully Mason Cooley
One must be just a little crazy to write a great novel. One must be capable of allowing the darkest, most ancient and shrewd parts of one’s being to take over the work from time to time. John Gardner
William Shakespeare quote: "So farewell to the little good you bear me. Farewell! a long..."
So farewell to the little good you bear me. Farewell! a long farewell, to all my greatness! William Shakespeare
but it wasn't just about my feelings. The more I got to know you, the more I was certain that you'd do whatever it took to provide for your family. That was important to me. You have to understand that back then, a lot of people our age wanted to change the world. Even though it's a noble idea, I knew I wanted something more traditional. I wanted a family like my parents had, and I wanted to concentrate on my little corner of the world. I wanted someone who wanted to marry a wife and a... Nicholas Sparks
