Otherness Quotes (page 403)

Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains. Those who think themselves the masters of others are indeed greater slaves than they. Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Apart from the pleasure of looking at her and listening to her--of enjoying in her what others less discriminatingly but as liberally appreciated--he had the sense, between himself and her, of a kind of free-masonry of precocious tolerance and irony. They had both, in early youth, taken the measure of the world they happened to live in: they knew just what it was worth to them and for what reasons, and the community of these reasons lent to their intimacy its last exquisite touch. Edith Wharton
Tim LaHaye quote: "There is something therapeutic about doing for others that..."

Etty Hillesum quote: "Each of us must turn inward and destroy in himself all that he..."

I remember my mother telling me that, when she was a little girl in Catholic school, the nuns used to hit her left hand every time she wrote with it. Nowadays, if a teacher did that, she'd probably be arrested for child abuse. The optimist in me wants to believe sexuality will eventually be like handwriting: there's no right or wrong way to do it. We're all just wired differently. It's also worth noting that, when you meet someone, you never bother to ask if he's right or left handed. After... Jodi Picoult
It may be easily believed that however little of novelty could be added to their fears hopes and conjectures on this interesting subject by its repeated discussion no other could detain them from it long during the whole of the journey. From Elizabeth's thoughts it was never absent. Fixed there by the keenest of all anguish self-reproach she could find no interval of ease or forgetfulness. Jane Austen

The bar is in full swing, and floating rounds of cocktails permeate the garden outside, until the air is alivewith chatter and laughter, and casual innuendo and introductions forgotten on the spot, and enthusiastic meetings between women who never knew each other’s names. F. Scott Fitzgerald
In this dirty-minded world you are either somebody's wife or somebody's whore, or fast on your way to becoming one or the other. John Irving
But : We're still human. Human because we keep on battling against all these horrors, the horrors caused and not caused by us. We battle not in order to stay alive, that would be too materalistic, for we are body and spirit, but in order to love each other. Kathy Acker
Albert Einstein quote: "Am I, or the others crazy?"
Am I, or the others crazy? Albert Einstein
It was really dreadful to be so different from other people…and yet rather wonderful, too, as if you were a being strayed from another star. L. M. Montgomery
Winston Churchill quote: "Without courage all other virtues lose their meaning."
Without courage all other virtues lose their meaning. Winston Churchill
It is embarrassing to know that one is a god of a world that only exists because every improbability curve must have its far end; especially when one can peer into other dimensions at worlds whose Creators had more mechanical aptitude than imagination. No wonder, then, that the Disc gods spend more time in bickering than in omnicognizance. Terry Prachett
I was paralyzed with fear. It was unbearable to be among other kids who were just standing around being fine. It was one of the many inconveniences of this paradox I lived with -the more people I was surrounded by, the more frighteningly alone I felt. Sarah Silverman
