Matters Quotes (page 102)

What matters school? We can go to school to-morrow. Whether we have a lesson more or a lesson less, we shall always remain the same donkeys. Carlo Collodi
Jack Kerouac quote: "But the mountains were mighty solemn, and so was Japhy, and..."
But the mountains were mighty solemn, and so was Japhy, and for that matter so was I, and in fact laugher is solemn. Jack Kerouac
Henry David Thoreau quote: "No face which we can give to a matter will stead us so well at..."
No face which we can give to a matter will stead us so well at last as the truth. Henry David Thoreau
Then the anguish increased to unendurable massivity and nightmare dimensions, making her scream and vomit. She wanted...to have her dark curls shaved to an aquamarine prickle, because they grew into her porous skull and curled inside. Jigsaw pieces of sky or wall came apart, no matter how delicately put together, but a careless jolt or a nurse's elbow can disturb so easily those lightweight fragments which became incomprehensible blancs of anonymous objects, or the blank backs of 'Scrabble'... Vladimir Nabokov
[M]y religious belief teaches me to feel as safe in battle as in bed. God has fixed the time for my death. I do not concern myself about that, but to be always ready, no matter when it may overtake me. That is the way all men should live, and then all would be equally brave. Stonewall Jackson
Let us again pretend that life is a solid substance, shaped like a globe, which we turn about in our fingers. Let us pretend that we can make out a plain and logical story, so that when one matter is despatched—love for instance—we go on, in an orderly manner, to the next. Virginia Woolf
Victor Hugo quote: "What matters deafness of the ear, when the mind hears? The..."
What matters deafness of the ear, when the mind hears? The one true deafness, the incurable deafness, is that of the mind. Victor Hugo
I'd stay there, or not, and I'd eat, or not, and I'd drink, or not, and go home, or not, and what I did or didn't do wouldn't matter to anyone at all. And I walked for most of the day. Do people get sad on holiday sometimes? I can imagine they do, having all that time to think. Nick Hornby
There are occasions when a woman, no matter how weak and impotent in character she may be in comparison with a man, will yet suddenly become not only harder than any man, but even harder than anything and everything in the world. Nikolai Gogol
What matters most:"What he had yearned to embrace was not the flesh but a downy spirit, a spark, the impalpable angel that inhabits the flesh."Wind, Sand and Stars. Richard Bach
Without you, without your onslaughts, without your uprootings of us, we should remain all our lives inert, stagnant, puerile, ignorant both of ourselves and of God. You who batter us and then dress our wounds, you who resist us and yield to us, you who wreck and build, you who shackle and liberate, the sap of our souls, the hand of God, the flesh of Christ: it is you, matter, that I bless. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
Roger Zelazny quote: "No word matters. But man forgets reality and remembers words."
No word matters. But man forgets reality and remembers words. Roger Zelazny
You are a divine being. You matter, you count. You come from realms of unimaginable power and light, and you will return to those realms. Terence McKenna
As long as a self is driven by an id to a Thou, it is not a matter of love, either. In love the self is not driven by the id, but rather the self chooses the Thou. Viktor E. Frankl
To [the government] it didn't matter what happened to the American people as long as america in the abstract was kept strong. Isaac Asimov
