Never Quotes (page 613)

The woman who first gives life, light, and form to our shadowy conceptions of beauty, fills a void in our spiritual nature that has remained unknown to us till she appeared. Sympathies that lie too deep for words, too deep almost for thoughts, are touched, at such times, by other charms than those which the senses feel and which the resources of expression can realise. The mystery which underlies the beauty of women is never raised above the reach of all expression until it has claimed... Wilkie Collins
Let us here observe, that a religion that does not require the sacrifice of all things, never has power sufficient to produce the faith necessary unto life and salvation. Joseph Smith, Jr.
John Wilmot quote: "God bless our good and gracious King, Whose promise none..."
God bless our good and gracious King, Whose promise none relies on; Who never said a foolish thing, Nor ever did a wise one. John Wilmot
Virginia Woolf quote: "Indeed there has never been any explanation of the ebb and..."
Indeed there has never been any explanation of the ebb and flow in our veins--of happiness and unhappiness. Virginia Woolf
And when I was young, did I ever tell you, I always wanted to get insidea book and never come out again? I loved reading so much I wantedto be a part of it, and there were some books I could have stayed infor ever. Peter Ackroyd
Books are the most wonderful friends in the world. When you meet them and pick them up, they are always ready to give you a few ideas. When you put them down, they never get mad; when you take them up again, they seem to enrich you all the more. Fulton J. Sheen
What do people mean when they say, 'I am not afraid of God because I know He is good'? Have they never even been to a dentist? C. S. Lewis
I never said a word against eminent men of science. What I complain of is a vague popular philosophy which supposes itself to be scientific when it it really nothing but a sort of new religion and an uncommonly nasty one. Gilbert K. Chesterton
you shall be told what pleased me to-day in the writings of. Hecato; it is these words: "What progress, you ask, have I made? I have begun to be a friend to myself." That wasindeed a great benefit; such a person can never be alone. You may be sure that such a man is a friend to all mankind. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Reinhold Niebuhr quote: "Frantic orthodoxy is never rooted in faith but in doubt. It is..."
Frantic orthodoxy is never rooted in faith but in doubt. It is when we are unsure that we are doubly sure. Reinhold Niebuhr
I tended to be hard on the egos of a certain kind of men. The ones who normally swept women off their feet had never moved me much, because I'd always felt that if they swept me off my feet they'd practiced on a lot of women before me, and would practice more with women after me. I'd rarely been wrong on that. ~Anita Blake Laurell K. Hamilton
The misfortune is that although everyone must come to [death], each experiences the adventure in solitude. We never left Maman during those last days... and yet we were profoundly separated from her. Simone de Beauvoir
William Shakespeare quote: "And will 'a not come again? And will 'a not come again? No,..."
And will 'a not come again? And will 'a not come again? No, no, he is dead, Go to thy death bed: He will never come again. William Shakespeare
You start into it, inflamed by an idea, full of hope, full indeed of confidence. If you are properly modest, you will never write it at all, so there has to be one delicious moment when you have thought of something, know just how you are going to write it, rush for a pencil, and start buoyed up with exaltation. You then get into difficulties, don’t see your way out, and finally manage to accomplish more or less what you first meant to accomplish, though losing confidence all the time. Having... Agatha Christie
I don't mind nothing happening in a book, but nothing happening in a phony way--characters saying things people never say, doing jobs that don't fit, the whole works--is simply asking too much of a reader. Something happening in a phony way must beat nothing happening in a phony way every time, right? I mean, you could prove that, mathematically, in an equation, and you can't often apply science to literature. Nick Hornby
