Yes, but not my style of woman: I like a woman who lays herself out a little more to please us. There should be a little filigree about a woman--something of the coquette. A man likes a sort of challenge. The more of a dead set she makes at you the better. George Eliot
Stephen King quote: "Beans, beans, the musical fruit, The more you eat, the more..."
Beans, beans, the musical fruit, The more you eat, the more you toot. Stephen King
Nothing would bother me more than if they found me strange at the office. I like to revel in the irony that they don't find me at all strange. I like the hair shirt of being regarded by them as their equal. I like the crucifixion of being considered no different. THere are martyrdoms more subtle than those recorded for the saints and hermits. There are torments of our mental awareness as there are of the body and of desire. And in the former, as in the latter, there's a certain sensuality..... Fernando Pessoa
The more severe the pain or illness, the more severe will be the necessary changes. These may involve breaking bad habits, or acquiring some new and better ones. Peter McWilliams
Thinking of you is pretty, hopeful, It is like listening to the most beautiful song From the most beautiful voice on earth... But hope is not enough for me any more, I don't want to listen to songs any more, I want to sing. Nazim Hikmet
The more I anoint the more my mind adheres physically to the mysterious fabric of love.I am decutie. Worn thin. You know that word? Helene Cixous
I think there should be more black characters, and more of all kinds of characters, in fiction. Almost all of the main characters in my novel Anansi Boys are black. And there are black characters in featured roles in all the other novels except Stardust and Coraline. (Something I was happy to see was not the case in Henry Selick’s film.) Neil Gaiman
He yearned to know nothing more about himself, to find peace, to be dead. If only lightning could come and kill him. If only a tiger could come and devour him. If only there were a wine, a poison that could bring him a stupor, bring him sleep and oblivion and no more awakening. Was there any filth with which he had not soiled himself, any sin or folly he had not committed, any spiritual bleakness with which he had not burdened himself? Was it still possible to go on living? Was it possible to... Herman Hesse
John Adair quote: "The more that people share decisions affecting their working..."
The more that people share decisions affecting their working life, the more they are motivated to carry them out John Adair
There is this difference between the growth of some human beings and that of others: in the one case it is a continuous dying, in the other a continuous resurrection. One of the latter sort comes at length to know at once whether a thing is true the moment it comes before him; one of the former class grows more and more afraid of being taken in, so afraid that he takes himself in altogether, and comes at length to believe in nothing but his dinner: to be sure of a thing is to have it between... George MacDonald
Ozzy Osbourne quote: "The worse I got, the more I worried that Sharon would leave..."
The worse I got, the more I worried that Sharon would leave me. And the more I worried, the worse I got. Ozzy Osbourne
If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel' Benjamin Netanyahu
Jane Austen quote: "The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it."
The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it. Jane Austen
She's afraid to tell me anything important, knowing I'll only turn around and write about it. In my mind, I'm like a friendly junkman, building things from the little pieces of scrap I find here and there, but my family's started to see things differently. Their personal lives are the so-called pieces of scrap I so casually pick up, and they're sick of it. More and more often their stories begin with the line "You have to swear you'll never repeat this." I always promise, but it's generally... David Sedaris
But fierce as my attraction was, I also knew that it was more than just a physical attraction [...], more than just a momentenry surge of animal desire. I understood that she wasn't a terribly articulate person and nothing she said that afternoon was particularly brilliant or memorable. And yet there I was in a state of maximum torment - burning and longing and pining, a man trapped in the spines of love. Paul Auster
