Marking Time Quotes (page 4)

Jenny Holzer quote: "A sense of timing is the mark of a genius."
A sense of timing is the mark of a genius. Jenny Holzer
The sure mark of an unliterary man is that he considers "I've read it already" to be a conclusive argument against reading a work... Those read great works, on the other hand will read the same work ten, twenty or thirty times during the course of there life. C. S. Lewis
The flimsy little protestations that mark the front gate of every novel, the solemn statements that any resemblance to real persons living or dead is entirely coincidental, are fraudulent every time. A writer has no other material to make his people from than the people of his experience ... The only thing the writer can do is to recombine parts, suppress some characterisitics and emphasize others, put two or three people into one fictional character, and pray the real-life prototypes won't... Wallace Stegner
Janet Frame quote: "There is no past or future. Using tenses to divide time is..."

Sometimes the little times you don't think are anything while they're happening turn out to be what marks a whole period of your life. Andy Warhol
Over the green squares of the fields and the low curves of a wood there rose in the distance a grey, melancholy hill, with a strange jagged summit, dim and vague in the distance like some fantastic landscape in a dream. Baskerville sat for a long time, his gaze fixed upon it, and I read upon his eager face how much it meant to him, this first sight of that strange spot where the men of his blood had held sway so long and left their mark so deep. Arthur Conan Doyle
The 2004 Election marks the first time in modern political history that Republican voter turnout matched Democratic turnout in a presidential election year. Jeff Miller
The amount of eccentricity in a society has generally been proportional to the amount of genius, mental vigor, and moral courage it contained. That so few now dare to be eccentric marks the chief danger of the time. John Stuart Mill
John Stuart Mill quote: "That so few now dare to be eccentric, marks the chief danger..."
That so few now dare to be eccentric, marks the chief danger of the time. John Stuart Mill
Marshall McLuhan quote: "The mark of our time is its revulsion against imposed patterns."
The mark of our time is its revulsion against imposed patterns. Marshall McLuhan
Right from the start, I loved the works of Mark Twain. Every time I read about Tom Sawyer, I'd go out and do something low-level naughty, just like him. John Grisham
Lane Evans quote: "World War II was a decisive time in our history and June 6,..."
World War II was a decisive time in our history and June 6, 1944, marked the decisive moment of the war. Lane Evans
Nature gives to every time and season some beauties of its own; and from morning to night, as from the cradle to the grave, it is but a succession of changes so gentle and easy that we can scarcely mark their progress. Charles Dickens
People don't realize you're blowing over changes, time changes, harmony, different keys. I mark a point in my solo where it's got to peak at point D I go to A, B, C D then I'm home. James McBride
Isaac Pitman quote: "Well-arranged time is the surest mark of a well-arranged mind."
Well-arranged time is the surest mark of a well-arranged mind. Isaac Pitman
