Real Quotes (page 122)

Sometimes life takes hold of one, carries the body along, accomplishes one's history, and yet is not real, but leaves oneself as it were slurred over. David Herbert Lawrence
Just for the record, waking up on drugs with your pubic hair shaved and something plastic stuck in your vagina doesn't necessarily make you a real artist. Chuck Palahniuk
Sooner or later we all discover that the important moments in life are not the advertised ones, not the birthdays, the graduations, the weddings, not the great goals achieved. The real milestones are less prepossessing. They come to the door of memory unannounced, stray dogs that amble in, sniff around a bit and simply never leave. Our lives are measured by these. Susan B. Anthony
George S. Patton quote: "A real man will never let his fear of death overpower his..."
A real man will never let his fear of death overpower his honor, his sense of duty to his country, and his innate manhood. George S. Patton

Jane Austen quote: "Ah! There is nothing like staying at home, for real comfort."
Ah! There is nothing like staying at home, for real comfort. Jane Austen
[In 1951] we were also told that the Russians could be parachuting from planes over our town at any time. These were the same Russians that my uncles had fought alongside only a few years earlier. Now they had become monsters who were coming to slit our throats and incinerate us. It seemed peculiar. Living under a cloud of fear like this robs a child of his spirit. It's one thing to be afraid when someone's holding a shotgun on you, but it's another thing to be afraid of something that's just... Bob Dylan
Karl Marx quote: "The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the..."
The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness. Karl Marx
I have heard all that you have had to say to me on your problems. You ask me what to do about them. It is my view that your real problem is that you are a member of the human race. Face that one first. Idries Shah
A man who drinks too much on occasion is still the same man as he was sober. An alcoholic, a real alcoholic, is not the same man at all. You can't predict anything about him for sure except that he will be someone you never met before. Raymond Chandler
Abraham Lincoln quote: "Character is like a tree and reputation its shadow. The shadow..."
Character is like a tree and reputation its shadow. The shadow is what we think it is and the tree is the real thing. Abraham Lincoln
Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings. Andre Maurois
Dave Eggers quote: "Why do you want to be on The Real World? -Because I want..."
Why do you want to be on The Real World? -Because I want everyone to witness my youth Why? -Isn't it gorgeous? Dave Eggers
Storytelling awakens us to that which is real. Honest. . . . it transcends the individual. . . . Those things that are most personal are most general, and are, in turn, most trusted. Stories bind. . . . They are basic to who we are. A story composite personality which grows out of its community. It maintains a stability within that community, providing common knowledge as to how things are, how things should be -- knowledge based on experience. These stories become the conscience of the...
