My Life Quotes (page 116)

I would never be part of anything. I would never really belong anywhere, and I knew it, and all my life would be the same, trying to belong, and failing. Always something would go wrong. I am a stranger and I always will be, and after all I didn’t really care. Jean Rhys
Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: "When I read a good book, I wish my life were three thousand..."

Mom and dad say I should make my life an example of the principles I believe in. But every time I do, they tell me to stop it. Bill Watterson
I cannot drug my life with the present moment; The present moment may rape--but all in vain--The future, for the future remains a virgin. Who must be tried again. Louis MacNeice
Dammit, that yodel of triumph of yours was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard in my life. I wish I had a tape recorder to take it down."Those things aren't made to be heard by the people down below," says Japhy, dead serious. Jack Kerouac
Libraries aren't in the real world, after all. They're places apart, sanctuaries of pure thought. In this way I can go on living on the moon for the rest of my life. Paul Auster
Anton Chekhov quote: "If my life can ever be of any use to you, come and take it."
If my life can ever be of any use to you, come and take it. Anton Chekhov

I'm choosing happiness over suffering, I know I am. I'm making space for the unknown future to fill up my life with yet-to-come surprises. Elizabeth Gilbert
Rainer Maria Rilke quote: "I live my life in widening circles That reach out across the..."
I live my life in widening circles That reach out across the world. Rainer Maria Rilke
If in one hundred years I am only known as the man who invented Sherlock Holmes, then I will have considered my life a failure. Arthur Conan Doyle
For the first time in my life I took to writing things on walls. The passage-ways of several smart restaurants had ' Visca P.O.U.M.!' scrawled on them as large as I could write it. All the while, though I was technically in hiding, I could not feel myself in danger. The whole thing seemed too absurd. I had the ineradicable English belief that they cannot arrest you unless you have committed a crime. It is a most dangerous belief to have during a political pogrom. George Orwell
Emily Giffin quote: "Nothing about my life is lucky - it's all about hard work, it..."
Nothing about my life is lucky - it's all about hard work, it is all an uphill struggle. Emily Giffin
In the state I was in, if someone had come and told me I could go home quietly, that they would leave me my life whole, it would have left me cold: several hours or several years of waiting is all the same when you have lost the illusion of being eternal. Jean-Paul Sartre
Nicholas Sparks quote: "The saddest people I've met in my life are the ones who don't..."
The saddest people I've met in my life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all . Nicholas Sparks
