Mornings Quotes (page 29)

I remember one morning getting up at dawn. There was such a sense of possibility. You know, that feeling. And I...I remember thinking to myself: So this is the beginning of happiness, this is where it starts. And of course there will always be more...never occurred to me it wasn't the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment, right then." (Clarissa in THE HOURS) Michael Cunningham
And any small moments of intense, flaring beauty such as this morning's will be utterly forgotten, dissolved by time like a super-8 film left out in the rain, without sound, and quickly replaced by thousands of silently growing trees. Doug Coupland
Samuel Taylor Coleridge quote: "He went like one that hath been stunn'd, And is of sense..."
He went like one that hath been stunn'd, And is of sense forlorn: A sadder and a wiser man. He rose the morrow morn. Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Even the sun-clouds this morning cannot manage such skirts Nor the woman in the ambulance Whore red heart blooms through her coat so astoundingly....Oh my God, what am IThat these late mouths should cry open. In a forest of frost, in a dawn of cornflowers Sylvia Plath
However many years she lived, Mary always felt that 'she should never forget that first morning when her garden began to grow'. Frances Hodgson Burnett
[Raymond Roussel] said that after his first book he expected that the next morning there would be a kind of aura around his person and that everyone in the street would be able to see that he had written a book. This is the obscure desire harboured by everyone who writes. It is true that the first text one writes is neither written for others, nor because one is what one is: one writes to become other than what one is. One tries to modify one's way of being through the act of writing. Michel Foucault
I will make you brooches and toys for your delight. Of bird-song at morning and star-shine at night. I will make a palace fit for you and me. Of green days in forests and blue days at sea. Robert Louis Stevenson
There’s no use saying anything in the schoolyard because there’s always someone with an answer and there’s nothing you can do but punch them in the nose and if you were to punch everyone who has an answer you’d be punching morning noon and night. Frank McCourt
The things that most deserve our gratitude we just take for granted. Without air we cannot live for more than a minute or two. Everyday we are breathing in and breathing out, but do we ever feel grateful to the air? If we do not drink water, we cannot survive. Even our body is composed to a large extent of water. But do we give any value to water? Every morning when we open our eyes, we see the sun blessingfully offering us light and life-energy, which we badly need. But are we grateful to... Sri Chinmoy
If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love. Don't be surly at home, then go out in the street and start grinning 'Good morning' at total strangers. Maya Angelou
Alain de Botton quote: "The mind does most of its best thinking when we aren't there...."
The mind does most of its best thinking when we aren't there. The answers are there in the morning. Alain de Botton

She asked where he lived. Second to the right,' said Peter, 'and then straight on till morning. J. M. Barrie
Kate Chopin quote: "There was no despondency when she fell asleep that night; nor..."
There was no despondency when she fell asleep that night; nor was there hope when she awoke in the morning. Kate Chopin
I GO DOWN TO THE SHORE I go down to the shore in the morning and depending on the hour the waves are rolling in or moving out, and I say, oh, I am miserable, what shall— what should I do? And the sea says in its lovely voice: Excuse me, I have work to do. Mary Oliver
Since Jimmy Carter, religious fundamentalists play a major role in elections. He was the first president who made a point of exhibiting himself as a born again Christian. That sparked a little light in the minds of political campaign managers: Pretend to be a religious fanatic and you can pick up a third of the vote right away. Nobody asked whether Lyndon Johnson went to church every day. Bill Clinton is probably about as religious as I am, meaning zero, but his managers made a point of... Noam Chomsky
