Something Quotes (page 372)

Many people feel that mass acceptance and smooth socialization are desirable life paths for a young adult… Many people are often wrong… Don’t bother being nice. Being popular and well liked is not in your best interest. Let me be more clear; if you behave in a manner pleasing to most, then you are probably doing something wrong. The masses have never been arbiters of the sublime, and they often fail to recognize the truly great individual. Taking into account the public’s regrettable lack of... Janeane Garofalo
Nora Roberts quote: "When you could dissect something and find all the answers, you..."
When you could dissect something and find all the answers, you could find all the wrong ones Nora Roberts
Indeed the Book of Job avowedly only answers mystery with mystery. Job is comforted with riddles; but he is comforted. Herein is indeed a type, in the sense of a prophecy, of things speaking with authority. For when he who doubts can only say, ‘I do not understand,’ it is true that he who knows can only reply or repeat ‘You do not understand.’ And under that rebuke there is always a sudden hope in the heart; and the sense of something that would be worth understanding. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Feminism is dead in the world. It comes from another time. I'm a feminist. I want to fight, but I don't see many people with this desire to fight for something. Women don't help each other, especially in fashion. Donatella Versace
That's what I don't like about college, by the way. It's like a lot of people don't believe these years really count, so you're allowed to experiment with... whatever. There's such a casual view about things like sex and drinking and even drugs. I know that sounds really old-fashioned, but I just don't get it...to be honest, I'm kind of disappointed in those two people I heard about, and I don't want to sit there trying to pretend that I'm not. I know I shouldn't judge,...but still, what was... Nicholas Sparks
Glenn Turner quote: "Worring is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do,..."
Worring is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it gets you nowhere. Glenn Turner
Anthony Burgess quote: "Goodness comes from within... Goodness is something chosen. ..."
Goodness comes from within... Goodness is something chosen. When a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man. Anthony Burgess
For some reason, it didn’t feel right. Victor’s words seemed to confirm that. There was another reason that he’d come here. Falling in love with Elizabeth might have been part of it. But that wasn’t all. Something else was coming. There is more. Nicholas Sparks
In introducing himself, he had said, "I'm the father," and the doctors had winced. Because something else must have echoed in their ears- I'm the monster's father. Kenzaburo Oe
Suzanne Collins quote: "Do it. Before they send those mutts back or something. I don't..."
Do it. Before they send those mutts back or something. I don't want to die like Cato," he says. Suzanne Collins
But if he has lost the sane vision, he can only get it back by something very like a mad vision; that is, by seeing a man as a strange animal and realising how strange an animal he is. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Though I have said that I envy the normal man to the point of exasperation, yet I would not care to be in his place as he is now (though I will not stop envying him. No, no; anyway the underground life is more advantageous!) There, at any rate, one can-- bah! But after all, even now I am lying! I am lying because I know myself as surely as two times two makes four, that it is not at all underground that is better, but something different, quite different, for which I long but which I cannot... Fyodor Dostoevsky
Abraham Lincoln quote: "if you want your name to be remembered after your death either..."
if you want your name to be remembered after your death either do something worth writing or write some thing worth reading Abraham Lincoln
But the false serpent persuaded Adam that he must still do something to become like God: he must achieve that likeness by deciding and acting for himself...He wanted instead to unravel the mystery of his being for himself, to make himself what God had already made him. That was the Fall of man. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
And yet your shadow isn't following you anymore. At some point your shadow has quietly slipped away. You pretend you don't notice, but you have, you're missing your fucking shadow, though there are plenty of ways to explain it, the angle of the sun, the degree of oblivion induced by the sun beating down on hatless heads, the quantity of alcohol ingested, the movement of something like subterranean tanks of pain, the fear of more contingent things, a disease that begins to become apparent,... Roberto Bolano
