Put Quotes (page 83)

And I can't say it now. I can't say what I want to say. I hold you-- I-- I clutch you, because I love you so desperately, and time is so short, we have such a little time in which to live and be young, even at best, and I put my arms around you and hold you because I want to love you while I can and I want to know I'm loving you, only it doesn't mean anything because you aren't afraid. You aren't frightened so that you want to clutch it all while you can. Madeleine L'Engle
Paranoids are not paranoid because they're paranoid, but because they keep putting themselves, fucking idiots, deliberately into paranoid situations. Thomas Pynchon
They walked still farther and the girl said, "Is it true that long ago firemen put fires out instead of going to start them?" No. Houses have always been fireproof, take my word for it." Strange. I heard once that a long time ago houses used to burn by accident and they needed firemen to stop the flames. Ray Bradbury
Mother Teresa quote: "If we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent..."

I could have waited years, now that I knew the end of the story. I was cold and wet and very happy. I could even look with charity towards the altar and the figure dangling there. She loves us both, I thought, but if there is to be a conflict between an image and a man, I know who will win. I could put my hand on her thigh or my mouth on her breast; he was imprisoned behind the altar and couldn't move to plead his cause. Graham Greene
Read at every wait; read at all hours; read within leisure; read in times of labor; read as one goes in; read as one goest out. The task of the educated mind is simply put: read to lead. Marcus Tullius Cicero
Boy, this really wasn't one of his days. He just couldn't put a foot right. It was a situation all too familiar to me, this business of setting off on the wrong foot and doggedly remaining there. Only I'd never watched it from the outside before. It was fascinating. Elaine Dundy
Jane Austen quote: "Men were put into the world to teach women the law of compromise."
Men were put into the world to teach women the law of compromise. Jane Austen
Charles Dickens quote: "No varnish can hide the grain of the wood; and that the more..."
No varnish can hide the grain of the wood; and that the more varnish you put on, the more the grain will express itself. Charles Dickens
Then the ship gave sudden lurches that made it a matter of uncertainty whether one was going to put his fork in his mouth or into his eye. Thomas Bailey Aldrich
She liked his tears so much that she put out her beautiful finger and let them run over it. Her voice was so low that at first he could not make out what she said. Then he made it out. She was saying that she thought she could get well again if children believed in fairies. J. M. Barrie
If I put my head deliberately into the fire, there is no appeal to fire or to the maker of fire, and I have only myself to blame. Henry David Thoreau
And taking her friend’s hand, she put it on her breast, on that firm round covering of a woman’s heart which the male often finds so satisfying that he makes no attempt to find what lies beneath it. Guy de Maupassant
But once an idea for a novel seizes a writer...well, it’s like an inner fire that at first warms you and makes you feel good but then begins to eat you alive, burn you up from within. You can’t just walk away from the fire; it keeps burning. The only way to put it out is to write the book. Dean Koontz
Phil McGraw quote: "You can't put feathers on a dog and call it a chicken!"
You can't put feathers on a dog and call it a chicken! Phil McGraw
