Record Quotes (page 26)

The Bible did not arrive by fax from heaven…The Bible is the product of man, my dear. Not of God. The Bible did not fall magically from the clouds. Man created it as a historical record of tumultuous times, and it has evolved through countless translations, additions, and revisions. History has never had a definitive version of the book. Dan Brown
Some men go a lifetime and never have their kid blow up a car, but I have a daughter who's knocked off three cars and burned down a funeral home. Maybe that's some kind of record. Janet Evanovich
Just for the record, being smeared with shit and naked in the wilderness, spattered with pink vomit, this does not necessarily make you a real artist. Chuck Palahniuk
I have met some highly intelligent believers, but history has no record to say that [s]he knew or understood the mind of god. Yet this is precisely the qualification which the godly must claim—so modestly and so humbly—to possess. It is time to withdraw our 'respect' from such fantastic claims, all of them aimed at the exertion of power over other humans in the real and material world. Christopher Hitchens
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "Just for the record, how I feel right now is very terrific."
Just for the record, how I feel right now is very terrific. Chuck Palahniuk
Can we not appreciate that our very business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves? To break our own records, to outstrip our yesterdays by our todays, to bear our trials more beautifully than we ever dreamed we could, to give as we have never given, to do our work with more force and a finer finish than ever—this is the true idea: to get ahead of ourselves. Thomas S. Monson
Virginia Woolf quote: "Happy the mother who bears, happier still the biographer who..."
Happy the mother who bears, happier still the biographer who records the life of such a one! Virginia Woolf
The fossil record implies trial and error, an inability to anticipate the future, features inconsistent with an efficient Great Designer. Carl Sagan
I have never recorded a fact, which perhaps aught to have gone into my sketch of Thoreau, that, on the 1st August 1844, when I read my Discourse on Emancipation (in the British West Indies), in the Town Hall, in Concord, and the selectmen would not direct the sexton to ring the meeting-house bell, Henry went himself, and rung the bell at the appointed hour. Ralph Waldo Emerson
I would know of myself through the witnessing and naming of others. As Jesus in the Gospels is only seen and spoken of and recorded by others. I would know my existence and the value of that existence through others' eyes, which I believed I could trust as I could not trust my own. Joyce Carol Oates
Most of the laugh tracks on television were recorded in the early 1950’s. These days, most of the people you hear laughing are dead. Chuck Palahniuk
This was before voice mail, recorded phone messages you can't escape. Life was easier then. You just didn't pick up the phone. Joyce Carol Oates
Naguib Mahfouz quote: "Nothing records the effects of a sad life so graphically as..."
Nothing records the effects of a sad life so graphically as the human body. Naguib Mahfouz
I've got one more record. - Have you heard "So Long Letty"? I suppose you have.''Honestly, you don't understand - I haven't heard a thing.'Nor known, nor smelt, nor tasted he might have added; only hot cheeked girls in hot secret rooms. The young maidens he had known at New Haven in 1914 kissed men saying 'There!' hands at the man's chest to push him away. Now there was this scarcely saved waif of disaster bringing him the essence of a continent... F. Scott Fitzgerald
Ozzy Osbourne quote: "We’d recorded Black Sabbath in one day. Sabotage took about..."
We’d recorded Black Sabbath in one day. Sabotage took about four thousand years. Ozzy Osbourne
