Something Quotes (page 252)

It's hard at times, but it makes a kid strong in ways that most people can't understand. Teaches them that even though people are left behind, new ones will inevitable take their place; that every place has something good - and bad - to offer. It makes a kid grow up fast. Nicholas Sparks
He nods, as if to acknowledge that endings are almost always a little sad, even when there is something to look forward to on the other side. Emily Giffin
One of the Georges - I forget which - once said that a certain number of hours sleep each night - I cannot recall at the moment how many - made a man something which for the time being has slipped my memory. P. G. Wodehouse
Karl Lagerfeld quote: "Chanel is an institution, and you have to treat an institution..."
Chanel is an institution, and you have to treat an institution like a whore? and then you get something out of her Karl Lagerfeld
For now she need not think of anybody. She coud be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of - to think; well not even to think. To be silent; to be alone. All the being and the doing, expansive, glittering, vocal, evaporated; and one shrunk, with a sense of solemnity, to being oneself, a wedge-shaped core of darkness, something invisible to others... and this self having shed its attachments was free for the strangest adventures. Virginia Woolf
Stephen Covey quote: "People simply feel better about themselves when they’re good..."
People simply feel better about themselves when they’re good at something. Stephen Covey
The true genius shudders at incompleteness? imperfection? and usually prefers silence to saying the something which is not every thing that should be said. Edgar Allan Poe
Haruki Murakami quote: "I never trust people with no appetite. It's like they're..."
I never trust people with no appetite. It's like they're always holding something back on you. Haruki Murakami
Grandmother pointed out my brother Perry, my sister Sarah, and my sister Eliza, who stood in the group. I had never seen my brother nor my sisters before; and, though I had sometimes heard of them, and felt a curious interest in them, I really did not understand what they were to me, or I to them. We were brothers and sisters, but what of that? Why should they be attached to me, or I to them? Brothers and sisters were by blood; but slavery had made us strangers. I heard the words brother and... Frederick Douglass
Walter Martin quote: "a man who will not stand for something is quite likely to fall..."
a man who will not stand for something is quite likely to fall for almost anything. Walter Martin
When you can do that, little Wren, when you can accept the wearing down and the eroding, then you can do anything. How did I manage to keep going out nights? I just told myself I didn’t matter all that much—that those in here mattered more. You know something? It’s not so hard really. You just have to get past the fear. Terry Brooks
I think the highest forgiveness is to accept that creation is thoroughly tangled, with every possible quality given outlet for expression. People need to accept once and for all that there is only one life and each of us is free to shape it through the choices we make. Seeking can’t get anyone out of the tangle because everything is tangled up…it’s much easier to keep up the fight between good and evil, holy and profane, us and them. But as awareness grows, these opposites begin to calm... Deepak Chopra
There is a strange moment in time, after something horrible happens, when you know it's true, but you haven't told anyone yet. Barbara Kingsolver
One year I went as a pirate, but from then on I went as a hobo. It's a word you don't hear anymore. Along with 'tramp,' it's been replaced by 'homeless person,' which isn't the same thing. Unlike someone who was evicted or lost his house in a fire, the hobo roughed it by choice. Being at liberty, unencumbered by bills and mortgages, better suited his drinking schedule, and so he found shelter wherever he could, never a bum, but something much less threatening, a figure of merriment, almost. David Sedaris
There is something about the state putting the power to bully into the hands of subnormal, sadistic apes that makes my blood boil. Gore Vidal
