[Literature is] the best way of telling the truth; it’s a process of producing grand, beautiful, well-ordered lies that tell more truth than any assemblage of facts. Julian Barnes
From my locker I collected my sneakers, jock strap, and gym pants and then turned away, leaving the door ajar for the first time, forlornly open and abandoned, the locker unlocked. This was more final than the moment when the Headmaster handed me my diploma. My schooling was over now. John Knowles
John Donne quote: "One short sleep past, we wake eternally, and Death shall be no..."
One short sleep past, we wake eternally, and Death shall be no more: Death, thou shalt die. John Donne
Some things come with their own punishments. Like bedrooms with built-in cupboards. They would all learn more about punishments soon. That they came in different sizes. That some were so big they were like cupboards with built-in bedrooms. You could spend your whole life in them, wandering through dark shelving. Arundhati Roy
Haruki Murakami quote: "You know what it’s like when you’re trying to fall asleep and..."
You know what it’s like when you’re trying to fall asleep and it only makes you more wide awake? Haruki Murakami
And of course these days I feel like there is a nation of us - displaced southerners and children of the working class. We listen to Steve Earle, Mary J. Blige, and k. d. lang. We devour paperback novels and tell evil mean stories, value stubbornness above patience and a sense of humor more than a college education. We claim our heritage with a full appreciation of how often it has been disdained. And let me promise you, you do not want to make us angry. Dorothy Allison
Then he called him Maeglin, which is Sharp Glance, for he perceived that the eyes of his son were more piercing than his own, and his thought could read the secrets of hearts beyond the mist of words. J. R. R. Tolkien
Dean Koontz quote: "I love you more than life."
I love you more than life. Dean Koontz
Is there any instinct more deeply implanted in the heart of man than the pride of protection, a protection which is constantly exerted for a fragile and defenceless creature? Honore de Balzac
Farewell,' she said. 'I hope you hear many more songs' - which was the best way she could think of to say good-bye to a butterfly. Peter S. Beagle
Stephen King quote: "Artistic talent is far more common than the talent to nurture..."
Artistic talent is far more common than the talent to nurture artistic talent. Stephen King
A man is never such an egotist as at moments of spiritual ecstasy. At such times it seems to him that there is nothing on earth more splendid and interesting than himself. Leo Tolstoy
A political society does not live to conduct foreign policy; it would be more correct to say that it conducts foreign policy in order to live. George F. Kennan
Albert Einstein quote: "Imagination is more imortant than Knowledge"
Imagination is more imortant than Knowledge Albert Einstein
No one can become a new man except by entering the Church, and becoming a member of the body of Christ. It is impossible to become a new man as a solitary individual. The new man means more than the individual believer after he has been justified and sanctified. It means the Church, the Body of Christ, in fact it means Christ himself. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
