The other half is to dramatize that we still 'are' human beings, now. Or can be. David Foster Wallace
Dear fatal name! rest ever unreveal'd, Nor pass these lips in holy silence seal'd. Hide it, my heart, within that close disguise, Where mixed with Gods, his lov'd idea lies: O write it not, my hand - the name appears. Already written - wash it out, my tears! In vain lost Eloisa weeps and prays, Her heart still dictates, and her hand obeyes. Alexander Pope
Jules Renard quote: "When I think of all the books still left for me to read, I am..."
When I think of all the books still left for me to read, I am certain of further happiness. Jules Renard
He'd watched a falcon fall down the long blue wall of the mountain and break with the keel of its breastbone the midmost from a flight of cranes and take it to the river below all gangly and wrecked and trailing its loose and blowsy plumage in the still autumn air. Cormac McCarthy
Arthur Hugh Clough quote: "Ah yet, when all is thought and said, The heart still..."

You don't become an 'artist' unless you've got something missing somewhere. Blaise Pascal called it a God-shaped hole. Everyone's got one but some are blacker and wider than others. It's a feeling of being abandoned, cut adrift in space and time-sometimes following the loss of a loved one. You can never completely fill that hole-you can try with songs, family, faith and by living a full life... but when things are silent, you can still hear the hissing of what's missing. Bono
You and I who still enjoy fairy tales have less reason to wish actual childhood back. We have kept its pleasures and added some grown-up ones as well. C. S. Lewis
The success of any trap lies in its fundamental simplicity. The reverse trap by the nature of its single complication must be swift and simpler still. Robert Ludlum
Yet the summer which was to change everything was coming nearer every day. When boys and girls are growing up, life can't stand still, not even in the quietest of country towns; and they have to grow up, whether they will or no. That is what their elders are always forgetting. Willa Cather
Despite his consistent party-line voting record, some independents and Democrats still think of Senator McCain as the most palatable, independent-minded Republican. But this is the sort of empty compliment a friend of mine once compared to being called “the coolest Osmond. Sarah Vowell
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "Alas, where is there still a sea in which one could drown:..."
Alas, where is there still a sea in which one could drown: thus our lament resounds? across shallow swamps. Friedrich Nietzsche
Sophocles quote: "Wild as you are, all that love you must love you still."
Wild as you are, all that love you must love you still. Sophocles
I would say about individuals, A Individual dies when they cease to to be surprised. I am surprised every morning when I see the sunshine again. When I see an act of evil I don't accomodate, I don't accomodate myself to the violence that goes on everywhere. I am still so surprised! That is why I am against it. We must learn to be surprised. Abraham Joshua Heschel
Every time you mention some guy that's strictly a bastar? very mean, or very conceited and al? and when you mention it to the girl, she'll tell you he has an inferiority complex. Maybe he has, but that still doesn't keep him from being a bastard, in my opinion. J. D. Salinger
