Moving On Quotes (page 109)

It was beautiful and rare, and you have every right to despise me."She stood pressed to the wall, not moving."When you came in, I thought 'Send her away.' But I knew that if you went away, I'd run after you. I thought 'I won't say a word.' But I knew that you'd know it before you left. I love you. I know you'd think kindlier of me if I said that I hate you. Ayn Rand
The white people were as thick and numerous and aimless as grasshoppers, moving always in a hurry but never seeming to get to whatever place it was they were going to. Dee Brown
Taylor Swift quote: "I began absolutely non-stop tormenting my parents, begging..."
I began absolutely non-stop tormenting my parents, begging them on a daily basis to move there. Taylor Swift
Kurt Vonnegut quote: "Billy was guided by dread and the lack of dread. Dread told..."
Billy was guided by dread and the lack of dread. Dread told him when to stop. Lack of it told him when to move again. Kurt Vonnegut
You are saying, are you not, I said to Manuelito, that stories have more room in them than ideas? [...] He laughed. That is correct, Seor. It is as if ideas are made of blocks. Rigid and hard. And stories are made of a gauze that is elastic. You can almost see through it, so what is beyond is tantalizing. You can't quite make it out; and because the imagination is always moving forward, you yourself are constantly stretching. Stories are the way spirit is exercised. Alice Walker
People move too fast and talk too much, and before you know it, they come back to a place they don't want to be - except now they know there's nowhere left to run. Jodi Picoult
I try to congure, to raise my own spirits, from wherever they are. I need to remember what they look like. I try to hold them still behind my eyes, their faces, like pictures in an album. But they won't stay still for me, they move, there's a smile and it's gone, their features curl and bend as if the paper's burning, blackness eats them. A glimpse, a pale shimmer on the air; a glow, aurora, dance of electrons, then a face again, faces. But they fade, though I stretch out my arms towards... Margaret Atwood
Jean-Paul Sartre quote: "I exist. It is soft, so soft, so slow. And light: it seems as..."
I exist. It is soft, so soft, so slow. And light: it seems as though it suspends in the air. It moves. Jean-Paul Sartre
we've produced a generation of spiritual panhandlers, begging for coins of wisdom, banging like bums on every closed door...if an old man moves into a shack or a cave and lets his beard grow, people will flock from miles around just to read his "no trespassing" sign Tom Robbins
Till gradually he became desperate, lost his understanding, was plunged in a revolt that knew no bounds. Inarticulate, he moved with her at the Marsh in violent, gloomy, wordless passion, almost in hatred of her. David Herbert Lawrence
That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation. Inventions then cannot, in nature, be a subject of... Thomas Jefferson
Paulo Coelho quote: "And, when you can't go back, you have to worry only about the..."
And, when you can't go back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward. Paulo Coelho
Things are going downhill with you!' he said to himself, and laughed about it, and as he was saying it, he happened to glance at the river, and he also saw the river going downhill, always moving on downhill, and singing and being happy through it all. Herman Hesse
Barry Lopez quote: "real beauty is so deep you have to move into darkness to..."
real beauty is so deep you have to move into darkness to understand it. Barry Lopez
Solomon, who was one of the Deity's favorites, had a copulation cabinet composed of seven hundred wives and three hundred concubines. To save his life he could not have kept two of these young creatures satisfactorily refreshed, even if he had fifteen experts to help him. Necessarily almost the entire thousand had to go hungry for years and years on a stretch. Conceive of a man hardhearted enough to look daily upon all that suffering and not be moved to mitigate it. Mark Twain
