Nicely Quotes (page 23)

Great pals we've always been. In fact there was a time when I had an idea I was in love with Cynthia. However, it blew over. A dashed pretty and lively and attractive girl, mind you, but full of ideals and all that. I may be wronging her, but I have an idea that she's the sort of girl who would want a fellow to carve out a career and what not. I know I've heard her speak favourably of Napoleon. So what with one thing and another the jolly old frenzy sort of petered out, and now we're just... P. G. Wodehouse
David Baldacci quote: "Why can't people just sit and read books and be nice to each..."
Why can't people just sit and read books and be nice to each other? David Baldacci
You're never confident. You go in fear and trembling every day. It would be awfully nice to think that you know how to write a novel. But what you know is the novel you just wrote. You don't have the slightest notion how to write the one you're going to do next. Wallace Stegner
[Justice] demands seclusion, it permits sorrow rather than anger, and it prescribes the most careful abstention from all the nice pleasures of putting oneself in the limelight. Hannah Arendt
I had to ride slow because I was taking my guerrilla route, the one I follow when I assume that everyone in a car is out to get me. My nighttime attitude is, anyone can run you down and get away with it. Why give some drunk the chance to plaster me against a car? That's why I don't even own a bike light, or one of those godawful reflective suits. Because if you've put yourself in a position where someone has to see you in order for you to be safe--to see you, and to give a fuck--you've... Neal Stephenson
If you're going to go to war against thr System, just do your shooting like a nice, intelligent girl because the enemy's there, and not because you don't like his hairdo or his goddamn necktie. J. D. Salinger

It would be nice and fairly nearly true, to say that 'from that time forth, Eustace was a different boy.' To be strictly accurate, he began to be a different boy. He had relapses. There were still many days when he could be very tiresome. But most of those I shall not notice. The cure had begun. C. S. Lewis
Charles M. Schulz quote: "Dear Santa Claus, just a last note before you take off. I hope..."
Dear Santa Claus, just a last note before you take off. I hope you have a nice trip. Don't forget to fasten your seat belt. Charles M. Schulz
Roddy Doyle quote: "Dreaming was only nice while it lasted."
Dreaming was only nice while it lasted. Roddy Doyle
It always smelled like it was raining outside, even if it wasn't, and you were in the only nice, dry, cosy place in the world. J. D. Salinger
She's quite skinny, like me, but nice skinny. Roller-skate skinny. I watched her once from the window when she was crossing over Fifth Avenue to go to the park, and that's what she is, roller-skate skinny. You'd like her. J. D. Salinger
Crowds, Scott said. People trudging along wide streets, pushing carts or riding bikes, crowd after crowd in the long lens of the camera so they seem even closer together than they really are, totally jampacked, and I think of how they merge with the future, how the future makes room for the non-achiever, the trudger, the nonagressor, the nonindividual. Totally calm in the long lens, crowd on top of crowd, pedaling, trudging, faceless, sort of surviving nicely. Don DeLillo
Laurell K. Hamilton quote: "I looked at Micah, who shrugged. I looked at Rafael, who shook..."
I looked at Micah, who shrugged. I looked at Rafael, who shook his head. Nice that none of us knew why he was undressing. Laurell K. Hamilton
Mitch Albom quote: "It's nice that you spend a day with your mother,' she said...."
It's nice that you spend a day with your mother,' she said. "Children should do it more often. Mitch Albom
