Oneness Quotes (page 631)

A writer always wears glasses and never combs his hair. Half the time he feels angry about everything and the other half depressed. He spends most of his life in bars, arguing with other dishevelled, bespectacled writers. He says very 'deep' things. He always has amazing ideas for the plot of his next novel, and hates the one he has just published. Paulo Coelho
No one can hurry me down to Hades before my time, but if a man's hour is come, be he brave or be he coward, there is no escape for him when he has once been born. Homer
Evelyn Waugh quote: "Never get mixed up in a Welsh wrangle. It doesn't end in blows..."
Never get mixed up in a Welsh wrangle. It doesn't end in blows like an Irish one, but goes on forever. Evelyn Waugh
Actually, however, life begins less by reaching upward, than by turning upon itself. But what a marvelously insidious, subtle image of life a coiling vital principle would be! And how many dreams the leftward oriented shell, or one that did not conform to the rotation of its species, would inspire! Gaston Bachelard
Because he had not done what she, with her heart in her mouth, had hoped he would do, which was to be a man: deny everything, and swear on his life it was not true, and grow indignant at the false accusation, and shout curses at this ill-begotten society that did not hesitate to trample on one's honor, and remain imperturbable even when forced with crushing proofs of his disloyalty. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Meg Cabot quote: "Me: “Ngh” Cal: “Well put.” ...... Every Boy's Got One"
Me: “Ngh” Cal: “Well put.” ...... Every Boy's Got One Meg Cabot

The one's who were mean to me are now nice to me. Susan Boyle
If we’re going to solve the problems of the world, we have to learn how to talk to one another. Poetry is the language at its essence. It’s the bones and the skeleton of the language. It teaches you, if nothing else, how to choose your words. Rita Dove
Woody Allen quote: "I'm giving [my analyst] one more year--then I'm going to Lourdes."
I'm giving [my analyst] one more year--then I'm going to Lourdes. Woody Allen
You guys just wait and see. We'll stand taller than these mountains. We'll bare open our hearts for the world to grab. We'll see lights where there was dimness. We'll testify together to what we have seen and felt. Life will go on--all of us--crawling; stumbling, falling perhaps. But we will be the strong ones. Our hearts will shine brightly. Doug Coupland
Frances Hodgson Burnett quote: "I don't like it, papa," she said. "But then I dare say..."
I don't like it, papa," she said. "But then I dare say soldiers - even brave ones - don't really like going into battle. Frances Hodgson Burnett
If you added it up, without her there was nothing--but with her even the simplest of gestures of walking a bird dog in the desert, or selecting the ingredients for a meal for two rather than one took on an ineffable charm.(from the novella, Revenge) Jim Harrison
Let the jerks of the world serve as the perfect example of what you don't want to be. You'll be a heck of a lot happier, and in the long run, there's a chance that other person at work will end up asking what your secret is. Why are you the happy one? In other words, don't let your thoughts think you. Besides, if you're really gonna get pissed, don't waste it on your family, friends, or coworkers, save it for something that really matters. Willie Nelson
Mr. Greer timed all our speeches with an oven timer. Things were nothing at Tribeca Alternative, considered one of Manhattan's finest prep schools, if not high tech. Meg Cabot
A good novel is one that shows the complexity of individuals, and creates enough space for all these characters to have a voice; in this way a novel is called democratic - not that it advocates democracy but that by nature it is so. Empathy lies at the heart of Gatsby, like so many other great novels - the biggest sin is to be blind to others' problems and pains. Not seeing them means denying their existence. Azar Nafisi
