Met Quotes (page 3)

Are you, Are you, Coming to the tree, Where they strung up a man they said murdered three? Strange things did happen here, No stranger would it be, If we met up at midnight In the hanging tree. Suzanne Collins
The best moments in reading are when you come across something? a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things? that you'd thought special, particular to you. And here it is, set down by someone else, a person you've never met Alan Bennett
George R. R. Martin quote: "You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that...."
You are an honest and honorable man...Ofttimes I forget that. I have met so few of them in my life. George R. R. Martin
As I see it, you are living with something that you keep hidden deep inside. Something heavy. I felt it from the first time I met you. You have a strong gaze, as if you have made up your mind about something. To tell you the truth, I myself carry such things around inside. Heavy things. That is how I can see it in you. Haruki Murakami
It was clear to the one speaking that each of his words was being allowed to enter into his listener, who sat there quietly, openly, waiting' not a single word was disregarded or met with impatience; Vasudeva attached neither praise nor blame to what he heard but merely listened. Herman Hesse
Ever since her conversion [Barbara] had met sophisticated women who, on the subject of Catholicism, sneered like French village atheists, and expected to be excused from normal good manners, let alone intelligence, on this one subject. Muriel Spark
[...] under the guise of caring only for intrinsic values Osmond lived exclusively for the world. Far from being its master as he pretended to be, he was its very humble servant, and the degree of its attention was his only measure of success. He lived with his eye on it from morning till night, and the world was so stupid it never suspected the trick. Everything he did was pose—pose so subtly considered that if one were not on the lookout one mistook it for impulse. Ralph had never met a man... Henry James
I realized that Joyce had gone as far as one could in the direction of knowing more, in control of one's material. He was always adding to it; you only have to look at his proofs to see that. I realised that my own way was impoverishment, in lack of knowledge and in taking away, subtracting rather than adding. When I first met Joyce, I didn't intend to be a writer. That only came later when I found out that I was no good at all at teaching. When I found I simply couldn't teach. But I do... Samuel Beckett
We're all lonely for something we don't know we're lonely for. How else to explain the curious feeling that goes around feeling like missing somebody we've never even met? David Foster Wallace
Wally Lamb quote: "I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet."
I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet. Wally Lamb
Will Rogers quote: "I joked about every prominent man in my lifetime, but I never..."
I joked about every prominent man in my lifetime, but I never met one I didn't like. Will Rogers
Long after her death I felt her thoughts floating through mine. Long before we met we had had the same dreams. We compared notes. We found strange affinities. The same June of the same year (1919) a stray canary had fluttered into her house and mine, in two widely separated countries. Oh, Lolita, had you love me thus! Vladimir Nabokov
You have to remember. . .that for this little boy whom you have met, his life is just as important to him, as your life is to you. No matter how insufficient or how shabby it may seem to some, it is the only one he has. Jonathan Kozol
Runny's Nicpic One day Runny Babbit Met little Franny Fog. He said, "Let's have a nicpic Down by the lollow hog." He brought some cutter bookies, Some teanuts and some pea. And what did Franny Fog bring? Her whole fog framily. Shel Silverstein
What is this gypsy passion for separation, this readiness to rush off when we've just met? My head rests in my hands as I realize, looking into the night that no one turning over our letters has yet understood how completely and how deeply faithless we are, which is to say: how true we are to ourselves. Marina Tsvetaeva
