New Quotes (page 187)

And if I may pursue this subject farther I would suggest that the whole matter of imaginative literature depends upon this faculty of seeing the universe, from the aeonian pebble of the wayside to the raw suburban street as something new, unheard of, marvellous, finally, miraculous. The good people--amongst whom I naturally class myself--feel that everything is miraculous; they are continually amazed at the strangeness of the proportion of all things. The bad people, or scientists as they are... Arthur Machen
What I notice is that every adult or child I give a new set of Crayolas to goes a little funny. The kids smile, get a glazed look on their faces, pour the crayons out, and just look at them for a while....The adults always get the most wonderful kind of sheepish smile on their faces--a mixture of delight and nostalgia and silliness. And they immediately start telling you about all their experiences with Crayolas. Robert Fulghum
Love is fragile -- she was thinking -- but perhaps the pieces are saved, the things that hovered on lips, that might have been said. The new love-words, the tenderness learned, and treasured up for the next lover. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Marianne Williamson quote: "Every ending is a new beginning. Through the grace of God, we..."
Every ending is a new beginning. Through the grace of God, we can always start again. (Page 120.) Marianne Williamson
He was going to live in New York, and be known at every restaurant and caf, wearing a dress suit from early evening to early morning, sleeping away the dull hours of the forenoon. F. Scott Fitzgerald
It was the old New York way...the way people who dreaded scandal more than disease, who placed decency above courage, and who considered that nothing was more ill-bred than "scenes", except those who gave rise to them. Edith Wharton
Steven Wright quote: "You know, the New Testament is pretty old. I think they should..."
You know, the New Testament is pretty old. I think they should call them the Old Testament and the Most Recent Testament. Steven Wright
We killed you and it was not new for us, we killed the companions of the Prophet and the friends of God. O how many Messengers did we slay? O how many imams? We killed you and you prayed the night prayer, as all of our days are struggle - and all of our days are Karbala. Nizar Qabbani
Frank McCourt quote: "I'm in New York, land of the free and home of the brave, but..."
I'm in New York, land of the free and home of the brave, but I'm supposed to behave as if I were in Limerick at all times. Frank McCourt
A new degree of anger came over him. What did it all matter? What did it matter if the mother talked Polish and cried in labour, if this child were stiff with resistance, and crying? Why take it to heart? Let the mother cry in labour, let the child cry in resistance, since they would do so. Why should he fight against it, why resist? Let it be, if it were so. Let them be as they were, if they insisted. David Herbert Lawrence
He knew something was going to happen and his entire system was waiting on it. He thought it was going to be one of the supreme moments in life but apart from that, he didn't have the vaguest notion what it might be. He pictured himself, after it was over, as an entirely new man, with an even better personality than he had now. He sat there for about fifteen minutes and nothing happened. Flannery O'Connor
My father moved through theys of we, singing each new leaf out of each tree,(and every child was sure that springdanced when she heard my father sing)... Mitch Albom
George Orwell quote: "Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them..."
Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing. George Orwell
Fuck me. I'm so tired of being me. Me beautiful. Me ugly. Blonde. Brunette. A million fucking fashion makeovers that only leave me trapped being me. Who I was before the accident is just a story now. Everything before now, before now, before now, is just a story I carry around. I guess that would apply to anybody in the world. What I need is a new story about who I am. What I need to do is fuck up so bad I can't save myself. Chuck Palahniuk
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "Whoever, at any time, has undertaken to build a new heaven has..."
Whoever, at any time, has undertaken to build a new heaven has found the strength for it in his own hell... Friedrich Nietzsche
