Oneness Quotes (page 275)

This is a work of fiction. Still, given an infinite number of possible worlds, it must be true on one of them. And if a story set in an infinite number of possible worlds is true in one of them, then it must be true in all of them. So maybe, it's not as fictional as we think. Neil Gaiman
Later in life, I learnt that many things one may require have to be weighed against one's dignity, which can be an insuperable barrier against advancement in almost any direction. However, in those days, choice between dignity and unsatisfied curiosity was less clear to me as a cruel decision that had to be made. Anthony Powell
Leonard Cohen quote: "Well I am the one who loves changing from nothing to one."
Well I am the one who loves changing from nothing to one. Leonard Cohen
I suggested that one could be a ray ofsunshine in pants just as well, but Aunty said that one had to behave like asunbeam, that I was born good but had grown progressively worse every year. Harper Lee
Let them go, I tell myself. Say good-bye and forget them. I do my best, thinking of them one by one, releasing them like birds from the protective cages inside me, locking the doors against their return. Suzanne Collins
Ernest Hemingway quote: "I always like the bad ones. I know he's a bad one of some sort."
I always like the bad ones. I know he's a bad one of some sort. Ernest Hemingway
None of our men are 'experts.' We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is... Henry Ford
Stars should not be seen alone. That's why there are so many. Two people should stand together and look at them. One person alone will surely miss the good ones. Augusten Burroughs
Albert Camus quote: "Once one's up against it, the precise manner of one's death..."
Once one's up against it, the precise manner of one's death has obviously small importance. Albert Camus
Cormac McCarthy quote: "It is always one's stance upon uncertain ground that invites..."
It is always one's stance upon uncertain ground that invites the attentions of one's enemies. Or discourages it. Cormac McCarthy
Henry James quote: "Don't mind anything any one tells you about any one else...."
Don't mind anything any one tells you about any one else. Judge everyone and everything for yourself. Henry James
Though no one would want to be sold as a slave, it is perhaps even more galling to be a sort of utility slave whom no one will buy. C. S. Lewis
In his Comedy, Dante Alighieri names Virgil, with many tokens of respect, as his teacher, and yet, as Herr Meinhard remarks, makes such ill use of him: a clear proof that even in the days of Dante one praised the ancients without knowing why. This respect for poets one does not understand and yet wishes to equal is the source of the bad writing in our literature. Georg C. Lichtenberg
Oh! if, when we oppress and grind our fellow-creatures, we bestowed but one thought on the dark evidences of human error, which, like dense and heavy clouds, are rising, slowly it is true, but not less surely, to Heaven, to pour their after-vengeance on our heads; if we heard but one instant, in imagination, the deep testimony of the dead men's voices, which no power can stifle, and no pride shut out; where would be the injury and injustice: the suffering, misery, cruelty, and wrong: that... Charles Dickens
I know,' said Winter, 'but they don't know.' And he went on with a thought he had been having. 'A time-minded people,' he said, 'and the time is nearly up. They think that just because they have only one leader and one head, we are all like that. They know that ten heads lopped off will destroy them, but we are a free people; we have as many heads as we have people, and in a time of need leaders pop up among us like mushrooms. John Steinbeck
