Put Quotes (page 172)

Brothers and sisters, this joyful season brings to all of us a measure of happiness that corresponds to the degree to which we have turned our minds, feelings, and actions to the Savior, whose birth we celebrat? May the spirit of love which comes at Christmastime fill our homes and our lives and linger there long after the tree is down and the lights are put away for another year. Thomas S. Monson

Every book is an image of solitude. It is a tangible object that one can pick up, put down, open, and close, and its words represent many months if not many years, of one man’s solitude, so that with each word one reads in a book one might say to himself that he is confronting a particle of that solitude Paul Auster

How do they get to meet the right people? How do they get to the right parties? If only someone would read my script... Forget all that. All these things are easy and will happen. The way you get your script to the right people is that you put it in an envelope. It's fucking easy. The difficult bit is writing... Steven Moffat

I find I quite like this interrogative formulation, since the question—as Gertrude Stein once famously if terminally put it—may be more absorbing than the answer. Of course one is flirting with calamity in phrasing things this way, as I learned in school when the Irish question was discussed by some masters as the Irish 'problem.' Again, the word 'solution' can be as neutral as the words 'question' or 'problem,' but... Christopher Hitchens
parenting isn't a noun but a verb--an ongoing process instead of an accomplishment. And that no matter how many years you put into the job, the learning curve is, well, fairly flat. Jodi Picoult
Jodi Picoult quote: "You saved me," I said. Nathaniel put his hands on either side..."
You saved me," I said. Nathaniel put his hands on either side of my face. "I had to," he said. "So you could save me back. Jodi Picoult
Meg Cabot quote: "Sometimes we need to take big risks if we want to find out who..."
Sometimes we need to take big risks if we want to find out who we are, and what we were put on this planet for. Meg Cabot
...Attempts at imitation would put the emphasis where it didn't belong. The goal was to improve the lives of others, not oneself. Tracy Kidder
Helen Keller quote: "If the blind put their hands in God's, they find their way..."
If the blind put their hands in God's, they find their way more surely than those who see but have not faith or purpose. Helen Keller
For she was a child, throwing bread to the ducks, between her parents who stood by the lake, holding her life in her arms which, as she neared them, grew larger and larger in her arms, until it became a whole life, a complete life, which she put down by them and said, "This is what I have made of it!

Do not sleep under a roof. Carry no money or food. Go alone to places frightening to the common brand of men. Become a criminal of purpose. Be put in jail, and extricate yourself by your own wisdom. Miyamoto Musashi
You got to knock a man down and put your knife at his throat before he'll hear you, like I did to that trooper. The truth seems hateful to most everybody. Thomas Berger
