Starting Quotes (page 127)

You can't start a fire. Worrying 'bout your little world falling apart. This gun's for hire. Even if we're just dancing in the dark Bruce Springsteen
Lawrence Ferlinghetti quote: "I once started outto walk around the worldbut ended up in..."
I once started outto walk around the worldbut ended up in Brooklyn, that Bridge was too much for me. Lawrence Ferlinghetti
Man can start with aversion and end with love, but if he begins with love and comes round to aversion he will never get back to love. Honore de Balzac
When you start thinking about what your life was like 10 years ago--and not in general terms, but in highly specific detail--it's disturbing to realize how certain elements of your being are completely dead. They die long before you do. It's astonishing to consider all the things from your past that used to happen all the time but (a) never happen anymore, and (b) never even cross your mind. It's almost like those things didn't happen. Or maybe it seems like they just happened to someone... Chuck Klosterman
Cosmetic surgery is not "cosmetic," and human flesh is not "plastic." Even the names trivialize what it is. It's not like ironing wrinkles in fabric, or tuning up a car, or altering outmoded clothes, the current metaphors. Trivialization and infantilization pervade the surgeons' language when they speak to women: "a nip," a "tummy tuck."...Surgery changes one forever, the mind as well as the body. If we don't start to speak of it as serious, the millennium of the man-made woman will be upon... Naomi Wolf
The First Book: Go ahead, it won't bite. Well... maybe a little. More a nip, like. A tingle. It's pleasurable, really. You see, it keeps on opening. You may fall in. Sure, it's hard to get started; remember learning to use knife and fork? Dig in: you'll never reach bottom. It's not like it's the end of the world -- just the world as you think you know it. Rita Dove
Anthony Kiedis quote: "I was starting to come to grips with the fact that I had..."

I shared guitars before I actually got one of my own and played a guy's Silver tone and played another guys Danelectro 12 string and it was at about age 17 that I actually started playing. Ronnie Montrose
When I first started working in politics, as a junior aide on Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign, it never occurred to me that I would one day work in the White House. There were plenty of women among the volunteers who stuffed envelopes and walked precincts. But there were fewer and fewer on each successive level of influence and access. Dee Dee Myers
On the day I started college in 1979, no woman had ever been on the United States Supreme Court or served as the Speaker of the House. None had been an astronaut or the solo anchor of a network evening news broadcast. Not one had been president of an Ivy League college or run a serious campaign for president. Dee Dee Myers
Robert Musil quote: "Today I start a diary; it is against my usual habbits, but out..."
Today I start a diary; it is against my usual habbits, but out of a clearly felt need. Robert Musil
If we ever start communicating with living creatures from other planets, the number one priority is, how are you going to communicate information? Even between different cultures here on Earth, you get into communication problems. Story Musgrave
I think there are huge lessons there, for young people who are getting started in life, as well as other people. And that is, to take responsibility for your own life. Only you are responsible for the course you take from there. Story Musgrave
Len G. Murray quote: "If I was starting off now, I would probably have taken one or..."
If I was starting off now, I would probably have taken one or two different turnings along the way. Len G. Murray
And thus it was that I started to wonder why Robert Burns is so important to us. We have other poets, and other writers, and other heroes, yet we do not afford them the veneration that we afford to Robert Burns. Len G. Murray
