Moving On Quotes (page 26)

Is Ahab, Ahab? Is it I, God, or who, that lifts this arm? But if the great sun move not of himself; but is an errand-boy in heaven; nor one single star can revolve, but by some invisible power; how then can this one small heart beat; this one small brain think thoughts; unless God does that beating, does that thinking, does that living, and not I. Herman Melville
I am trying now to re-create in my mind the picture of the man as I saw him in 1939- he, the revered author of Sinister Barriers, I the novice. I think I can rely on my near-photographic memory for the purpose. (I call it "near-photographic" because I can only remember things that happen to be lying around near photographs.)Let's see, as I recall, he is six-feet seven-inches tall (when he is sitting down, that is) with a long and majestic English face. Then, too, I distinctly remember, there... Isaac Asimov
One fast move or I'm gone,' I realize, gone the way of the last three years of drunken hopelessness which is a physical and spiritual and metaphysical hopelessness you can't learn in school no matter how many books on existentialism or pessimisn you read, or how many jugs of vision-producing Ayahuasca drink, or Mescaline take, or Peyote goop up with - Jack Kerouac
Edward Walker quote: "The world moves for love; it kneels before it in awe."
The world moves for love; it kneels before it in awe. Edward Walker
I felt emptied-out and singing with echoes, unrecognizable to myself: that particular feeling like your own house on the day you move out. Barbara Kingsolver
Because no windows were open and the air was so still and cold that the trees dared not move for fear of encountering more of it than they had to, Christiana thought that she had entered a city of the dead. Mark Helprin
Nobody talked much as the expedition crossed the moon. There was nothing appropriate to say. One thing was clear: Absolutely everybody in the city was supposed to be dead, regardless of what they were, and that anybody that moved in it represented a flaw in the design. There were to be no moon men at all. Kurt Vonnegut
Archer reddened to the temples but dared not move or speak: it was as if her words had been some rare butterfly that the least motion might drive off on startled wings, but that might gather a flock if it were left undisturbed. Edith Wharton
I seem fated to pass through the world without colliding with it or moving it? and I'm sure I can't tell you whether the fate's good or evil. I don't die? I don't fall in love. And if other people die or fall in love they always do it when I'm just not there. E. M. Forster
She was darkness and he was darkness and there had never been anything before this time, only darkness and his lips upon her. She tried to speak and his mouth was over hers again. Suddenly she had a wild thrill such as she had never known; joy, fear, madness, excitement, surrender to arms that were too strong, lips too bruising, fate that moved too fast. Margaret Mitchell
When a sense of dissatisfaction persists, that means it was placed there by God for one purpose only: you need to change everything and move forward. Paulo Coelho
There was not a moving up into vacated places; there was simply an anachronistic staying on between a vanishing past and an incalculable future. F. Scott Fitzgerald
We’ve lost something vital, I tell you. When we lost it, we lost the ability to make good decisions. We fall upon decisions these days the way we fall upon an enemy—or wait and wait, which is a form of giving up, and we allow the decisions of others to move us. Have we forgotten that we were the ones who set this current flowing? Frank Herbert
Everything in the world is beautiful, but Man only recognizes beauty if he sees it either seldom or from afar. Listen, today we are gods! Our blue shadows are enormous! We move in a gigantic, joyful world! Vladimir Nabokov
In the Land of Memory the time is always Now. In the Kingdom of Ago, the clocks tick... but their hands never move. There is an Unfound Door(O lost)and memory is the key which opens it. Stephen King
