So much for endings. Beginnings are always more fun. True connoisseurs, however, are known to favor the stretch in between, since it's the hardest to do anything with. That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what. Margaret Atwood
We shouldn't live as if [other worlds] mattered more than this life in this world, because where we are is always the most important place. Philip Pullman
Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear. Thomas Jefferson
After their encounter on the approach to Jupiter, there would aways be a secret bond between them---not of love, but of tenderness, which is often more enduring. Arthur C. Clarke
You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three butterflies). Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she... Antoine de Saint-Exupery
The truth is, every son raised by a single mom is pretty much born married. I don't know, but until your mom dies it seems like all the other women in your life can never be more than just your mistress. Chuck Palahniuk
The more you discipline yourself to use your time well, the happier you will feel and the better will be the quality of your life in every area. Brian Tracy
Nathaniel Branden quote: "Of all the judgments we pass in life, none is more important..."
Of all the judgments we pass in life, none is more important than the judgment we pass on ourselves. Nathaniel Branden
As the years accumulate, we form an increasingly somber image of the future. Is this only to console ourselves for being excluded from it? Yes in appearance, no in fact, for the future has always been hideous, man being able to remedy his evils only by aggravating them, so that in each epoch existence, is much more tolerable before the solution is found to the difficulties of the moment. Emile M. Cioran
In studying the history of the human mind one is impressed again and again by the fact that the growth of the mind is the widening of the range of consciousness, and that each step forward has been a most painful and laborious achievement. One could almost say that nothing is more hateful to man than to give up even a particle of his unconsciousness. Ask those who have tried to introduce a new idea! Carl Jung
Rearden sat in his room at the Wayne-Falkland Hotel, fighting an enemy more dangerous than weariness or fear: revulsion against the thought of having to deal with human beings. Ayn Rand
Charlaine Harris quote: "Was this the second body I'd found in the closet, or the..."
Was this the second body I'd found in the closet, or the third? I wondered why I even opened closet doors any more. Charlaine Harris
Jane Austen quote: "She felt the loss of Willoughby's character yet more heavily..."
She felt the loss of Willoughby's character yet more heavily than she had felt the loss of his heart. Jane Austen
I have never sneered in my life. Sneering doesn't become either the human face or the human soul. I am expressing my righteous contempt for Commercialism. I don't and wont trade in affection. You call me a brute because you couldn't buy a claim on me by fetching my slippers and finding my spectacles. You were a fool: I think a woman fetching a man's slippers is a disgusting sight: did I ever fetch your slippers? I think a good deal more of you for throwing them in my face. No use slaving for... George Bernard Shaw
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "The truth is, immigrants tend to be more American than people..."
The truth is, immigrants tend to be more American than people born here. Chuck Palahniuk
