Out Quotes (page 238)

I stretched out my hand towards the little bookshelf where I kept cookery and devotional books, the most comfortable bedside reading. Barbara Pym
The habits of liberals, their automatic language, their knee-jerk responses to certain issues, deserved the epithets the right wing stuck them with. I'd see how true they often were. Here they were, banding together in packs, so I could predict what they were going to say about some event or conflict and it wasn't even out of their mouths yet. I was very uncomfortable with that. Liberal orthodoxy was as repugnant to me as conservative orthodoxy. George Carlin
I knew that a historian (or a journalist, or anyone telling a story) was forced to choose, out of an infinite number of facts, what to present, what to omit. And that decision inevitably would reflect, whether consciously or not, the interests of the historian. Howard Zinn
I believe all Southern liberals come from the same starting point--race. Once you figure out they are lying to you about race, you start to question everything. Molly Ivins
Politics is a strong and slow boring of hard boards. It takes both passion and perspective. Certainly all historical experience confirms the truth - that man would not have attained the possible unless time and again he had reached out for the impossible. But to do that a man must be a leader, and not only a leader but a hero as well, in a very sober sense of the word. And even those who are neither leaders nor heroes must arm themselves with that steadfastness of heart which can brave even... Max Weber
Honore de Balzac quote: "Some day you will find out that there is far more happiness in..."
Some day you will find out that there is far more happiness in another's happiness than in your own. Honore de Balzac
Happy. Just in my swim shorts, barefooted, wild-haired, in the red fire dark, singing, swigging wine, spitting, jumping, running—that's the way to live. All alone and free in the soft sands of the beach by the sigh of the sea out there, with the Ma-Wink fallopian virgin warm stars reflecting on the outer channel fluid belly waters. And if your cans are redhot and you can't hold them in your hands, just use good old railroad gloves, that's all. Jack Kerouac
J. K. Rowling quote: "Books are like mirrors: if a fool looks in, you cannot expect..."
Books are like mirrors: if a fool looks in, you cannot expect a genius to look out. J. K. Rowling
For you will certainly carry out God's purpose, however you act, but it makes a difference to you whether you serve like Judas or like John. C. S. Lewis
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "One must reach out and try to grasp this astonishing finesse,..."
One must reach out and try to grasp this astonishing finesse, that the value of lif cannot be estimated. Friedrich Nietzsche
We live in a stocking which is in the process of being turned inside out, without our ever knowing for sure to what phase of the process our moment of consciousness corresponds. Vladimir Nabokov
Roger McGough quote: "So it's off with the shellsuit and on with the Armanis, Bring..."
So it's off with the shellsuit and on with the Armanis, Bring out the champagne and the caviar sarnies Roger McGough
John Steinbeck quote: "it was her habit to build up laughter out of inadequate..."
it was her habit to build up laughter out of inadequate materials. John Steinbeck
That's certainly a problem. But that's not what I was thinking of. It's just that you are so soft, so fragile. I have to mind my actions every moment that we're together so that I don't hurt you. I could kill you quite easily, Bella, simply by accident." His voice had become just a soft murmur. He moved his icy palm to rest it against my cheek. "If I was too hast? if for one second I wasn't paying enough attention, I could reach out, meaning to touch your face, and crush your skull by... Stephenie Meyer
That which has died falls not out of the universe. If it stays here, it also changes here, and is dissolved into its proper parts, which are elements of the universe and of thyself. And these too change, and they murmur not". Marcus Aurelius
