Personalization Quotes (page 82)

She is reading Zen, Krishnamurti, and Jung, asking herself questions she has never had the courage to explore. Suddenly, the shackles which have bound her are beginning to snap, as personal revelation replaces orthodoxy. Terry Tempest Williams
Whenever you feel ‘short’ or in ‘need’ of something, give what you want first and it will come back in buckets. That is true for money, a smile, love, friendship. I know it is often the last thing a person may want to do, but it has always worked for me. I just trust that the principle of reciprocity is true, and I give what I want. Robert Kiyosaki
I can't do it. I've been here before and it's not a room with a view. The only power I have is the negative power of withdrawal. If I don't withdraw I have no power at all. A relationship where one person has no power or negative power, isn't a relationship, it's the bond between master and slave. Jeanette Winterson
This magical thinking, this idea that human and personal progress is somehow inevitable, leads to political passivity.? It has turned whole nations, such as the United States, into self-consuming machines of death. Chris Hedges
Charles Schwab quote: "A person can succeed at almost anything for which they have..."
A person can succeed at almost anything for which they have unlimited enthusiasm. Charles Schwab
Now, Muriel Spark is said to have felt that she was taking dictation from God every morning-- sitting there, one supposes, plugged into a Dictaphone, typing away, humming. But this is a very hostile and aggressive position. One might hope for bad things to rain down on a person like this. Anne Lamott
We have it all arranged in our minds, and the less often we see a particular person the more satisfying it is to check how obediently he conforms to our notion of him every time we hear of him. Any deviation in the fates we have ordained would strike us as not only anomalous but unethical. We would prefer not to have known our neighbor, the retired hot-dog stand operator, if it turns out he has just produced the greatest book of poetry his age has seen. Vladimir Nabokov
The bonds between ourselves and another person exists only in our minds. Memory as it grows fainter loosens them, and notwithstanding the illusion by which we want to be duped and which, out of love, friendship, politeness, deference, duty, we dupe other people, we exist alone. Man is the creature who cannot escape from himself, who knows other people only in himself, and when he asserts the contrary, he is lying. Marcel Proust
E. M. Forster quote: "There has been, is, and always will be every conceivable type..."
There has been, is, and always will be every conceivable type of person.? E. M. Forster
Acquaintance: "A person whom we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to. A degree of friendship called slight when its object is poor or obscure, and intimate when he is rich or famous. Ambrose Bierce
Kim Stanley Robinson quote: "It is easy to live multiple lives! What is hard is to be a..."
It is easy to live multiple lives! What is hard is to be a whole person Kim Stanley Robinson
Anne Lamott quote: "Toddlers can make you feel as if you have violated some..."
Toddlers can make you feel as if you have violated some archaic law in their personal Koran and you should die, infidel. Anne Lamott
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. I like literally everything about you, including the way your face shows everything you're thinking and especially the way it looks when we are together and your hair is back and your eyes are closed and your lips are open just a little... Emily Giffin
Katharine Graham quote: "The longer I live, the more I observe that carrying around..."
The longer I live, the more I observe that carrying around anger is the most debilitating to the person who bears it. Katharine Graham
Instead of trying to fit an impossible ideal, I took a personal inventory of all my healthy body parts for which I am grateful: Straight Greek eyebrows. They start at the hairline at my temple and, left unchecked, will grow straight across my face and onto yours. Tina Fey
