Sensed Quotes (page 54)

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning. Hunter S. Thompson

Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don't know what the hell they're doing or who on earth they are can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino." - Joe Fox Nora Ephron
You know, people don't want their intelligence insulted. They don't want to be preached to. They don't want to be degraded.

Jodi Picoult

There's something I need from inside."I'll not stand out here. I'm going home."I'll only come after you, Brenna," he called over his shoulder as he walked to the door. Nora Roberts
The perfume that her body exhaled was of the quality of that earth-flesh, fungi, which smells of captured dampness and yet is so dry, overcast with the odour of oil of amber, which is an inner malady of the sea, making her seem as if she had invaded a sleep incautious and entire. Her flesh was the texture of plant life, and beneath it one sensed a frame, broad, porous and sleep-worn, as if sleep were a decay fishing her beneath the visible surface. About her head there was an effulgence as of... Djuna Barnes
I do struggle because I’m attracted to beautiful things, yet at the same time I am actually very aware, in some sense, their lack of value and that the most important things in life are your connections to other people. Tom Ford
Katherine Grey was born with the power of managing old ladies, dogs, and small boys, and she did it without any apparent sense of strain. Agatha Christie
Philip K. Dick quote: "To save one life, Mr Tagomi had to take two. The logical,..."
To save one life, Mr Tagomi had to take two. The logical, balanced mind cannot make sense of that Philip K. Dick
Dietrich Bonhoeffer quote: "Love, in the sense of spontaneous, unreflective action, spells..."
Love, in the sense of spontaneous, unreflective action, spells the death of the old man. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
But this was the thought of a depressive. An aspiring depressive, at the time. That was the odd thing about Leonard’s disease, the almost pleasurable way it began. At first his dark moods were closer to melancholy than to despair. There was something enjoyable about wandering around the city alone, feeling forlorn. There was even a sense of superiority, of being right, in not liking the things other kids liked. Jeffrey Eugenides
Nor would anybody suspect. If was one thing all people took for granted, was conviction that if you feed honest figures into a computer, honest figures come out. Never doubted it myself till I met a computer with a sense of humor. Robert A. Heinlein
I have a sense of melancholy isolation, life rapidly vanishing, all the usual things. It's very strange how often strong feelings don't seem to carry any message of action Philip Larkin
