Someone Quotes (page 62)

Even if one is neither vain nor self-obsessed, it is so extraordinary to be oneself - exactly oneself and no one else - and so unique, that it seems natural that one should also be unique for someone else. Simone de Beauvoir
It is no disparagement to the garden to say it will not fence and weed itself, nor prune its own fruit trees, nor roll and cut its own lawns...It will remain a garden only if someone does all these things to it...If you want to see the difference between [the garden's] contribution and the gardener's, put the commonest weed it grows side by side with his hoes rakes, shears, and a packet of weed killer; you have put beauty, energy, and fecundity beside dead, steril things. Just so, our... C. S. Lewis
Mignon McLaughlin quote: "We sometimes feel that we have been really understood, but it..."
We sometimes feel that we have been really understood, but it was always long ago, by someone now dead. Mignon McLaughlin
…Changing yourself to fit what you think other people want doesn’t work. Pretending to be someone other than yourself only broadens the distance between the person you are and the one with whom you’re trying to establish closeness. Mary Manin Morrissey
George S. Patton quote: "If everyone is thinking alike, then someone isn't thinking."
If everyone is thinking alike, then someone isn't thinking. George S. Patton
Charlaine Harris quote: "When I thought of Eric with someone else, I wanted to rip out..."

This condemnation of technology is ingratitude, that's what it is. Blind alley, though. If someone's ungrateful and you tell him he's ungrateful, okay, you've called him a name. You haven't solved anything. Robert M. Pirsig
Philip Roth quote: "This is what you know about someone you have to hate: he..."
This is what you know about someone you have to hate: he charges you with his crime and castigates himself in you. Philip Roth
I considered him and felt the now familiar crush of emotions weighing on me, begging me to cave in and fall into his strong arms. I pushed back with every ounce of energy I had left. Every time I trusted someone, I got hurt. Every time I let go, I was let down. Not again. I would drive them away before the left. Glenn Beck
You will lose someone you can’t live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp. Anne Lamott
If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food, it's a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move. Anthony Bourdain
Rodney Dangerfield quote: "I say 'no' to drugs. Whenever someone asks me for some of my..."
I say 'no' to drugs. Whenever someone asks me for some of my drugs I say, 'no. Rodney Dangerfield
Orson Scott Card quote: "He loved her, as you can only love someone who is an echo of..."
He loved her, as you can only love someone who is an echo of yourself at your time of deepest sorrow. Orson Scott Card
No matter what Joe Hoffman and Wade Preston say, it's not gender that makes a family; it's love. You don't need a mother and a father; you don't necessarily even need two parents. You just need someone who's got your back. Jodi Picoult
In love, no one can harm anyone else; we are each responsible for our own feelings and cannot blame someone else for what we feel. Paulo Coelho
