Slipping Quotes

Slipping in blood, by his own hand, through pride, Hamlet, Othello, Coriolanus fall. Upon his bed, however, Shakespeare die, Having endured them all. Louise Bogan
John Lennon quote: "Slipping? We're bigger than Jesus."
Slipping? We're bigger than Jesus. John Lennon
Brenna’s lorry wasn’t parked in the street. The dog was nowhere to be seen. Apparently even Betty had deserted him in his hour of need. The only choice left was a quick and cowardly retreat. “What was I thinking?” he stopped short and clapped a hand to his forehead. “I’m supposed to be helping Aidan . . . at the house. Slipped my mind.” As quickly as he could manage, he untangled his arm, gently nudging her hand away, as he might a puppy who was inclined to nip. Down, girl. “Things are always... Nora Roberts
You will follow me, if we are what we are, you and I, if we live, if the world exists, if you know the meaning of this moment and can't let it slip by, as others let it slip, into the senselessness of the unwilled and unreached. Ayn Rand
Yet even if I manage that, one single slip, and a slip cannot be avoided, will stop the whole process, easy and painful alike, and I will have to shrink back into my own circle again. Franz Kafka
Suzanne Collins quote: "One slip. One slip in thousands. The odds had been entirely in..."
One slip. One slip in thousands. The odds had been entirely in her favor. But it hadn't mattered. Suzanne Collins
Benjamin Franklin quote: "A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the..."
A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the tongue you may never get over. Benjamin Franklin
The best stories I have heard were pointless, the best books those whose plot I can never remember, the best individuals those whom I never get anywhere with. Though it has been practised on me time and again I never cease to marvel how it happens that with certain individuals whom I know, within a few minutes after greeting them we are embarked on an endless voyage comparable in feeling and trajectory only to the deep middle dream which the practised dreamer slips into like a bone slips into... Henry Miller
She reaches in, digs her hand deep into the ball, and pulls out a slip of paper. The crowd draws in a collective breath, and then you can hear a pin drop, and I'm feeling nauseous and so desperately hoping that it's not me, that it's not me, that it's not me. Effie Trinket crosses back to the podium, smoothes the slip of paper, and reads out the name in a clear voice. And it's not me. It's Primrose Everdeen. Suzanne Collins
You must have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by; but some of them are golden only because we let them slip by. J. M. Barrie
Carl Hiaasen quote: "You from the IRS? The man's voice was deep and wet, like mud..."
You from the IRS? The man's voice was deep and wet, like mud slipping down a drain. Carl Hiaasen
We're pupils of the religions—Catholic, Protestant, Jewish . . . Well, the Christian religions. Those who directed French education down through the centuries were the Jesuits. They taught us how to make sentences translated from the Latin, well balanced, with a verb, a subject, a complement, a rhythm. In short—here a speech, there a preach, everywhere a sermon! They say of an author, “He knits a nice sentence!” Me, I say, “It's unreadable.” They say, “What magnificent theatrical language!” I... Louis-Ferdinand Celine
Remember, constantly, that when you talk about 'tense of a subjunctive,' you're not talking about time. You're slipping through degrees of reality. C. J. Cherryh
For there is no bond more lasting than that formed bythe mutual confidences of that magic time when youth is slipping fromthe sheath of childhood and beginning to wonder what lies for it beyondthose misty hills that bound the golden road. L. M. Montgomery
When did my youth slip away from me? I suddenly thought. It was over, wasn't it? Seemed just like yesterday I was still only half grown up. Huey Lewis and the News had a couple of hit songs then. Not so many years ago. And now here I was, inside a closed circuit, spinning my wheels. Knowing I wasn't getting anywhere but spinning just the same. I had to. Had to keep that up or I wouldn't be able to survive. Haruki Murakami
