Right Words Quotes (page 8)
The place trembled with sound. I didn't need to do anything. They would do it all. But you had to be careful. Drunk as they were they could immediately detect any false gesture, any false word. You could never underestimate an audience. They had paid to get in; they had paid for drinks; they intended to get something and if you didn't give it to them they'd run you right into the ocean.
Charles Bukowski
Your favorite colour . . . it's green?"That's right." Then I think of something to add. "And yours is orange."Orange?" He seems unconvinced."Not bright orange. But soft. Like the sunset," I say. "At least, that's what you told me once."Oh." He closes his eyes briefly, maybe trying to conjure up that sunset, then nods his head. "Thank you."But more words tumble out. "You're a painter. You're a baker. You like to sleep with the windows open. You never take sugar in your tea. And you always...

You say you cannot love God; but it strikes me that if you rightly consider who and what He is, you cannot help it.

There's four and twenty million doors. On life's endless corridor, So say it loud and sing it proud today.

And when its time, our goodbyes will be complete.
Mitch Albom
It was like they waited to tell each other things that had never been told before. What she had to say was terrible and afraid.

Maybe he would have to let her understand this in a different way. That was the feeling she had with him.
