My numbers are off the charts." The skeleton has a much more limited vocabulary and says only one thing:... David Sedaris
Graham Greene quote: "He knew now that at the end there was only one thing that..."

There is only one thing a writer can write about: what is in front of his senses at the moment of writing... I am a recording instrument... I do not presume to impose “story” “plot” “continuity”...

Paulo Coelho quote: "There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to..."

And when the hourglass has run out, the hourglass of temporality, when the noise of secular life has grown silent and its restless or ineffectual activism has come to an end, when everything around you is still, as it is in eternity, then eternity asks you and every individual in these millions and millions about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. Soren Kierkegaard
