They Say Quotes (page 34)

Love, they say, enslaves and passion is a demon and many have been lost for love. I know this is true, but I know too that without love we grope the tunnels of our lives and never see the sun. Jeanette Winterson
Michael Jackson quote: "When they say the sky's the limit to me that's really true"
When they say the sky's the limit to me that's really true Michael Jackson
Love, they say, enslaves and passion is a demon and many have been lost for love. I know this is true, but I know too that without love we grope the tunnels of our lives and never see the sun. When I fell in love it was as though I looked into a mirror for the first time and saw myself. I lifted my hand in bewilderment and felt my cheeks, my neck. This was me. And when I had looked at myself and grown accustomed to who I was, I was not afraid to hate parts of me because I wanted to be worthy... Jeanette Winterson
George Bernard Shaw quote: "Hell, they says, is paved with good intentions."
Hell, they says, is paved with good intentions. George Bernard Shaw
What marriage doesn't involve uncountable accretions, a language of gestures, a sense of recognition sharp as a toothache? Unhappy, sure. What couple isn't unhappy, at least part of the time? But how can the divorce rate be, as they say, skyrocketing? How miserable would you have to get to be able to bear the actual separation, to go off and live your life so utterly unrecognized? Michael Cunningham
New York! I've always wanted to see it and now I've see it. It's true what they say-- it's the most wonderful city in the world. Betty Smith
I want to turn the whole thing upside down. I'll find the things they say just can't be found. I'll share the love I find with everyone. We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song. I don't want this feeling to go away. Jack Johnson
No one ever said that you would live to see the repercussions of everything you do, or that you have guarantees, or that you are not obliged to wander in the dark, or that everything will be proved to you and neatly verified like something in science. Nothing is: at least nothing that is worthwhile. I didn't bring you up only to move across sure ground. I didn't teach you to think that everything must be within our control or understanding. Did I? For, if I did, I was wrong. I fyou won't... Mark Helprin
Can you lose everything, you ever had planned? Can you sit down again, and play another hand? Could you risk everything, for the chance of being alone? Under pressure find the grace, or would you come undone? That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say? Bryan Adams
James Patterson quote: "Disappear where?" You know what they say: Curiosity killed the..."
Disappear where?" You know what they say: Curiosity killed the mutant bird kid. But I couldn't help myself. James Patterson
Never did get my curiosity cured,' she said. 'Some people sit around and wait for the world to poke them. Right here in this old curiosity shop of a world, they say, 'Poke me, world,' Well, you have to keep the challenges coming on. Make them up if necessary. William Least Heat-Moon
But there are people who take salt with their coffee. They say it gives a tang, a savour, which is peculiar and fascinating. In the same way there are certain places, surrounded by a halo of romance, to which the inevitable disillusionment you experience on seeing them gives a singular spice. You had expected something wholly beautiful and you get an impression which is infinitely more complicated than any that beauty can give you. It is the weakness in the character of a great man which... W. Somerset Maugham
It’s just human nature – isn’t it? – to be more attracted to something that’s taboo. If someone tells you not to smoke, you wanna smoke. If they say, ‘Don’t do drugs,’ you wanna do drugs. That’s why I’ve always thought that the best way to stop people taking drugs is to legalise the f**king things. It would take people about five seconds to realise that being an addict is a terribly unattractive and pathetic way to be, whereas at the moment it still has that kind of rebel cool vibe to it,... Ozzy Osbourne
Marjane Satrapi quote: "You know, they say in France that translation is like a woman:..."
You know, they say in France that translation is like a woman: she is either beautiful or faithful. Marjane Satrapi
[American family court] is a system that is corrupt on his best day. It is like being tied to the back of a pickup truck and dragged down a gravel late at night. No one can hear your cries and complaints and it is not over until they say it's over. Alec Baldwin
