Much Quotes (page 220)

Jane Austen quote: "But people themselves alter so much, that there is something..."
But people themselves alter so much, that there is something new to be observed in them for ever. Jane Austen
Of course, the laws of science contain no matter and have no energy either and therefore do not exist except in people's minds. It's best to be completely scientific about the whole thing and refuse to believe in either ghosts or the laws of science. That way you're safe. That doesn't leave you very much to believe in, but that's scientific too. Robert M. Pirsig
Rick Warren quote: "It’s not what you do, but how much love you put into it that..."
It’s not what you do, but how much love you put into it that matters. Rick Warren
Personal humiliation was painful. Humiliation of one's family was much worse. Humiliation of one's social status was agony to bear. But humiliation of one's nation was the most excruciating of human miseries. Orson Scott Card
Frank O'Hara quote: "There should be so much more, not of orange, of words, of how..."
There should be so much more, not of orange, of words, of how terrible orange is and life. Frank O'Hara

When you're alone you don't do much laughing. P. G. Wodehouse
This light-shouldered boy could jitterbug, old style, and would; he was more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold. We jitterbugged...Only the strenth in our fingertips kept us alive. If they weakened or slipped, his fingertips or mine, we'd fall spinning backward across the length of the room and out through the glass French doors to the snowy terrace, and if we were any good we'd make sure we fell on the downbeat, snow or no snow. Annie Dillard
Jorge Luis Borges quote: "It means much to have loved, to have been happy, to have laid..."
It means much to have loved, to have been happy, to have laid my hand on the living Garden, even for a day. Jorge Luis Borges
My hands are out of practice, my eyes disused. Most of what I do is drawing, because the preparation of the surface, the laborious underpainting and detailed concentration... are too much for me. I have lost confidence: perhaps all I will ever be is what I am now. Margaret Atwood
Confound you handsome young fellows! You think of having it all your own way in the world. You don't understand women. They don't admire you half so much as you admire yourselves. George Eliot
True opinions are a fine thing and do all sorts of good so long as they stay in their place; but they will not stay long. They run away from a man's mind, so they are not worth much until you tether them by working out the reason. Once they are tied down, they become knowledge, and are stable. Plato
Samuel Johnson quote: "Nature has given woman so much power that the law cannot..."
Nature has given woman so much power that the law cannot afford to give her more. Samuel Johnson
works of art feel towards human beings exactly as we do towards ghosts. The transparency of spectres, the diffuseness in space which lets them drift through doors and walls, and their smell of death, disgust us not more than we disgust works of art by our meaninglessness, our diffuseness in time which lets us drift through three score years and ten without a quarter as much significance as a picture establishes instantaneously. Rebecca West
The law of causality, I believe, like much that passes muster among philosophers, is a relic of a bygone age, surviving, like the monarchy, only because it is erroneously supposed to do no harm. Bertrand Russell
