Quotes Myself (page 88)

Gene, on the desire to be Finny: "I lost part of myself to him then, and a soaring sense of freedom revealed that this must have been my purpose from the first: to become a part of Phineas. John Knowles
... maybe a damned good night's sleep will bring me back to a gentle sanity. But at the moment, I look about this room and, like myself, it's all in disarray: things fallen out of place, cluttered, jumbled, lost, knocked over and I can't put it straight, don'twant to. Perhaps living through these petty days will get us ready for the dangerous ones. Charles Bukowski

A critical assumption is sometimes made that [Grisham, Clancey, Crichton & myself] have access to some mystical vulgate that other (and often better) writers cannot find or will not deign to use. I doubt if this is true. Nor do I believe the contention of some popular novelists... that thier success is based on literary merit -- that the public understands true greatness in ways the tight-a**ed, consumed-by-jealousy literary establishment cannot. This idea is ridiculous, a product of vanity... Stephen King
I made this resolution today. I will try to excel in all things yet if I am excelled, without fault of mine, I will not be mortified. I will not withhold from any one the praise which I think his due; nor will I allow myself to envy another's praise or to feel jealousy when I hear him praised. May God help me to keep it. Salmon P. Chase
This town must learn, even against its will, how much it coststo scorn a God's mysteries and to be purged. So shall I vindicate my virgin motherand reveal myself to mortals as a God, the son of God. Euripides
That’s one of the reasons I never wanted to get married. The last thing I wanted was infinite security and to be the place an arrow shoots off from. I wanted change and excitement and to shoot off in all directions myself, like the colored arrows from a Fourth of July rocket. Sylvia Plath
Edward Albee quote: "I said I was impressed, Martha. I'm beside myself with..."
I said I was impressed, Martha. I'm beside myself with jealousy. What do you want me to do, throw up? Edward Albee

I'm too old to recover, too narrow to forgive myself. Lillian Hellman
I knew that somewhere God was laughing. He had taken the other half of my heart, the one person who knew me better than I knew myself, and He had done what nothing else could do. By bringing us together, He had set into motion the one thing that could tear us apart. Jodi Picoult
Anne Frank quote: "Sometimes I'm so deeply buried under self-reproaches that I..."
Sometimes I'm so deeply buried under self-reproaches that I long for a word of comfort to help me dig myself out again. Anne Frank
