Lives Quotes (page 245)

For this is wisdom- to love and live. To take what fate or the Gods may give, To ask no question, to make no prayer, To kiss the lips and caress the hair, Speed passion's ebb as we greet its flow, To have and to hold, and, in time--let go. Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Arthur Golden quote: "We don't become geisha because we want our lives to be happy;..."
We don't become geisha because we want our lives to be happy; we become geisha because we have no choice. Arthur Golden
Have I mentioned that I expect death around every turn, that every blue sky has a safe sailing out of it, that every bus runs me over, that every low, mean syllable uttered in my direction seems to intimate the violence of murder, that every family seems like an opportunity for ruin and every marriage a ceremony into which calamity will fall and hearts will be broken and lives destroyed and people branded by the mortifications of love? Rick Moody

...gods, religions and national boundaries are absolutely imaginary. They don't tend to exist. As soon as you pull back half a mile and look down at the Earth there are no national boundaries.

I just get fascinated by people who assume that things that are imaginary have no relevance to their lives. Neil Gaiman
The practice of thrift is not outdated. We must discipline ourselves to live within our incomes even if it means going without or making do. The wise person can distinguish...between basic needs and extravagant wants. Some find budgeting extremely painful, but I promise you, it is never fatal. Marvin J. Ashton
And then he left, and came back, and our lives fell apart, like a well-loved book that you’d read and read again, until one night you picked it up to read yourself to sleep and the binding collapsed, sending dozens of pages spiraling toward the floor. Jennifer Weiner
What is to be done? There was no solution, but the universal solution which life gives to all questions, even the most complex and insoluble. The answer is: one must live in the needs of the day - that is, forget oneself. Leo Tolstoy
John Lennon quote: "Imagine all of us living in peace, it's too beautiful to just..."
Imagine all of us living in peace, it's too beautiful to just be a dream. John Lennon
Why must one talk? Often one shouldn't talk, but live in silence. The more one talks, the less the words mean. (Nana Kleinfrankenheim, Vivre Sa Vie) Jean-Luc Godard
Wilhelm Dilthey quote: "In the case of lived experience, there is no difference..."
In the case of lived experience, there is no difference between an object that is perceived and the eye that perceives it. Wilhelm Dilthey
It goes without saying that in order for me to buy a teapot at the Oneida, Ltd., outlet store at the Sherrill Shopping Plaza, the second coming of Jesus Christ had to have taken place in the year 70 A.D. To the Oneida Community, 70 A.D., the year the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed, marks the beginning of the New Jerusalem. Which means we’ve all been living in heaven on earth for nearly two thousand years. Everyone knows there is no marriage in heaven (though one suspects there’s no... Sarah Vowell
