Opening Quotes (page 24)

The past does not haunt us. We haunt the past. We allow our minds to focus in that direction. We open memories and examine them. We reexperience emotions we felt during the painful events we experienced because we are recalling them in as much detail as we can. Augusten Burroughs
In public affairs men are often better pleased that the truth, though known to everybody, should be wrapped up under a decent cover than if it were exposed in open daylight to the eyes of all the world. David Hume
Herman Melville quote: "...the great floodgates of the wonder-world swung open..."
...the great floodgates of the wonder-world swung open... Herman Melville
Richard P. Feynman quote: "To every man is given the key to the gates of heaven. The same..."
To every man is given the key to the gates of heaven. The same key opens the gates of hell. And so it is with science. Richard P. Feynman
I got the sexton, who was digging Linton’s grave, to remove the earth off her coffin lid, and I opened it. I thought, once, I would have stayed there, when I saw her face again—it is hers yet—he had hard work to stir me; but he said it would change, if the air blew on it... Emily Bronte
You are an amazing person, and I don't know where the feelings that you give me come from. What I do know is that I am completely and utterly into you and I want time to freeze so I can be with you all the time and not have to think of anything else at all.

Emily Giffin
Truth is a naked and open daylight, that does not show the masques, and mummeries, and triumphs of the world, half so stately and daintily as candle-lights. . . A mixture of a lie doth ever add pleasure Francis Bacon
I looked at the ornaments on the desk. Everything standard and all copper. A copper lamp, pen set and pencil tray, a glass and copper ashtray with a copper elephant on the rim, a copper letter opener, a copper thermos bottle on a copper tray, copper corners on the blotter holder. There was a spray of almost copper-colored sweet peas in a copper vase. It seemed like a lot of copper. Raymond Chandler
The robin flew from his swinging spray of ivy on to the top of the wall and he opened his beak and sang a loud, lovely trill, merely to show off. Nothing in the world is quite as adorably lovely as a robin when he shows off - and they are nearly always doing it. Frances Hodgson Burnett

Wakings are the worst times - almost before my eyes are open a great weight seems to roll on to my heart. Dodie Smith
Paulo Coelho quote: "If you must say yes, say it with an open heart. If you must..."
If you must say yes, say it with an open heart. If you must say no, say it without fear. Paulo Coelho
An LSD experience without the LSD" -that was a laugh. In fact, the heads are pouring in by the hundreds, bombed out of their gourds, hundreds of heads coming out into the absolute open for the first time. It is like the time the Pranksters went to the Beatles concert in full costume, looking so bizarre and so totally smoked that no one could believe they were. Nobody would risk it in public like that. Well the kids are just having an LSD experience without the LSD, that's all, and this is... Tom Wolfe
The little Durands were there, I conclude," said she, "with their mouths open to catch the music; like unfledged sparrows ready to be fed. They never miss a concert. Jane Austen
For that moment, at least, all our doors and windows were wide open; we were not carefully shutting out God's purifying light, in order to feel safe and secure; we were bathed in the same light that burned and yet did not consume the bush. We walked barefoot on holy ground. Madeleine L'Engle
When the cow jerks away, it’ll yank the door open.” “But what’s going to make the cow jerk away?” asked Little Richard. “You’re going to milk it,” said Slank. “But I don’t know how to milk a cow!” said Little Richard. “Exactly. Dave Barry
