Make Quotes (page 423)

Desires to which we cling closely can easily prevent us from being what we ought to be and can be; and on the other hand, desires repeatedly mastered for the sake of present duty make us richer. Lack of desire is poverty. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Still, we will let all this be a thing of the past, though it hurts us, and beat down by constraint the anger that rises inside us. Now I am making an end of my anger. It does not become me, unrelentingly to rage on Homer
There was a smile dancing on his lips, although it was a wary smile, for the world is a bigger place than a little graveyard on a hill; and there would be dangers in it and mysteries, new friends to make, old friends to rediscover, mistakes to be made and many paths to be walked before he would, finally, return to the graveyard or ride with the Lady on the broad back of her great grey stallion. Neil Gaiman
Thomas Hughes quote: "Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends, for it..."
Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends, for it is one of God's best gifts. Thomas Hughes
Anne Rice quote: "A perfectly evil Devil makes even less sense than a perfect God."
A perfectly evil Devil makes even less sense than a perfect God. Anne Rice
Do you think that the things people make fools of themselves about are any less real and true than the things they behave sensibly about? They are more true: they are the only things that are true. George Bernard Shaw
James Hilton quote: "People make mistakes in life through believing too much, but..."
People make mistakes in life through believing too much, but they have a damned dull time if they believe too little. James Hilton
Night was spreading slowly around the spinning Earth. It should have been full of pinpricks of light. It was not. There were five billion people down there. What was going to happen soon would make barbarism look like a picnic - hot, nasty, and eventually given over to the ants. Neil Gaiman
Cripes, I can’t keep up on this political correct shit. I don’t even know what to call myself. One minute I’m black. Then I’m African American. Then I’m a person of color. Who the hell makes these rules up, anyhow? Janet Evanovich
Isabella Bird quote: "Truly a good horse, good ground to gallop on, and sunshine,..."
Truly a good horse, good ground to gallop on, and sunshine, make up the sum of enjoyable travelling. Isabella Bird
I think the highest forgiveness is to accept that creation is thoroughly tangled, with every possible quality given outlet for expression. People need to accept once and for all that there is only one life and each of us is free to shape it through the choices we make. Seeking can’t get anyone out of the tangle because everything is tangled up…it’s much easier to keep up the fight between good and evil, holy and profane, us and them. But as awareness grows, these opposites begin to calm... Deepak Chopra
I know it's not clothes that make women beautiful or otherwise, nor beauty care, nor expensive creams, nor the distinction of costliness of their finery. I know the problem lies elsewhere. I don't know where. I only know it isn't where women think. Marguerite Duras
For I do not exist: there exist but the thousands of mirrors that reflect me. With every acquaintance I make, the population of phantoms resembling me increases. Somewhere they live, somewhere they multiply. I alone do not exist. Vladimir Nabokov
It is wrong to keep spelling out unnecessary choices that make women unconsciously resist either commitment or motherhood--and that hold back recognition of the needed social changes. Betty Friedan
Susan Ertz quote: "Idle to pretend that we have lost paradise. We never had it;..."
Idle to pretend that we have lost paradise. We never had it; it is still to make. Susan Ertz
