Was it just that? She was to be content to weave a steady life with him, all one fabric, but perhaps brocaded with the occasional flower of an adventure. But how could she know what she would feel next year? How could one ever know? How could one say Yes? for years and years? The little yes, gone on a breath!

The noble-minded are calm and steady. Little people are forever fussing and fretting. Confucius
It was odd, she thought, how if one was alone, one leant to inanimate things; trees, streams, flowers; felt they expressed one; felt they became one; felt they knew one, in a sense were one; felt an irrational tenderness thus (she looked at that long steady light) as for oneself. Virginia Woolf
At least he went on saying this till Aslan had loaded him up with three dwarfs, one dryad, two rabbits, and a hedgehog, that steadied him a bit. C. S. Lewis
Could it be that Americans are a restless people, a mobile people, never satisfied with where they are as a matter of selection? The pioneers, the immigrants who peopled the continent, were the restless ones in Europe. The steady rooted ones stayed home and are still there. But every one of us...are descended from the restless ones, the wayward ones who were not content to stay at home. Wouldn't it be unusual if we had not inherited this tendency? And the fact is that we have. John Steinbeck
an almost chemical change seemed to dissolve and recomposethe very elements of his body. A rigour passed over him, blood roseinto his cheeks, his forehead, and there was a steady thumping inhis ears. It was first love. F. Scott Fitzgerald
This is the assembly of life that took a billion years to evolve. It has eaten the storms-folded them into its genes-and created the world that created us. It holds the world steady. E. O. Wilson
Steig Larsson quote: "I don't know if I want a steady relationship, but I'm..."
I don't know if I want a steady relationship, but I'm terrified of losing you. Steig Larsson
