Sidewalk Quotes (page 3)

You aimin' to go the full circle now? How long before I have to come get you up from the sidewalks? You got hurt and pain in you? Well, I used to know a man who knew how to live with his pain and make his hurt work for him. Your daddy died with dignity; there wasn't no bum in him. And he known some hurts in this life you ain't never even heard of! Lorraine Hansberry
She did not have time to wonder about his being late. He died bent over the sidewalk sign that stood out in front of the hardware store....He had not even had time to get into the store.... Alice Munro
I could wait patiently, but I really wish you would: Drop everything now, meet me in the pourin' rain, Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain; Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile. Hit me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down, Give me somethin' that'll haunt me when you're not around; Cause I see sparks fly whenever you . . . smile. Taylor Swift

Vladimir Nabokov quote: "Nobody strolled and laughed on the sidewalks as relaxing..."
Nobody strolled and laughed on the sidewalks as relaxing burghers would in sweet, mellow, rotting Europe. Vladimir Nabokov
Why did you write "Charlie Brown is a blockhead" on the sidewalk?"Because I sincerely believe you are a blockhead! I have to write what I believe is true... It's my moral respolsibility!"Deep down I admire her integrity... Charles M. Schulz
There is a place where the sidewalk ends, And before the street begins, And there the grass grows soft and white, And there the sun burns crimson bright, And there the moon-bird rests from his flight To cool in the peppermint wind. Shel Silverstein
The wind outside nested in each tree, prowled the sidewalks in invisible treads like unseen cats. Tom Skelton shivered. Anyone could see that the wind was a special wind this night, and the darkness took on a special feel because it was All Hallows' Eve. Everything seemed cut from soft black velvet or gold or orange velvet. Smoke panted up out of a thousand chimneys like the plumes of funeral parades. From kitchen windows drifted two pumpkin smells: gourds being cut, pies being baked. Ray Bradbury

There was a point in the '80s when I looked out at my audience and I saw people that - were I not on the stage - they'd sooner slug me as they walked by me on the sidewalk. And I realized that I was way beyond the choir. Michael Stipe
In Paris, one is always reminded of being a foreigner. If you park your car wrong, it is not the fact that it's on the sidewalk that matters, but the fact that you speak with an accent. Roman Polanski
