Thing Quotes (page 901)

Your mother died to save you. If there is one thing Voldemort cannot understand, it is love. Love as powerful as your mother's for you leaves it's own mark. To have been loved so deeply, even though the person who loved us is gone, will give us some protection forever. J. K. Rowling
When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed. Fred Rogers
Audrey Hepburn quote: "The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be..."
The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it's all that matters. Audrey Hepburn
(About Love)The most important thing in life, and you can't tell whether people have it or not. Surely this is wrong? Surely people who are happy should look happy, at all times, no matter how much money they have or how uncomfortable their shoes are or how little their child is sleeping; and people who are doing OK but have still not found their soul-mate should look, I don't know, anxious, like Billy Crystal in When Harry Met Sally; and people who are desperate should wear something, a... Nick Hornby
Jack Kerouac quote: "I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up..."
I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another til I drop. Jack Kerouac
You're only a man! You've not our gifts! I can tell you! Why, a woman can think of a hundred different things at once, all them contradictory! Georgette Heyer
John will never forsake the weak and the helpless, nor fail to bring hope to the hopeless. That is what they believe, and so they do not worry. They go on and laugh and sing. Things are bound to come out right tomorrow. That is the secret of Negro song and laughter. Zora Neale Hurston
The important thing about being a leader is not being right or wrong but being certain. Of course it helps to be right as well, the Abbot conceeded. Terry Prachett
What do you talk about to a murderer, and someone you loved, over a perfect dinner and cocktails? I wanted to know so many things, but I couldn't ask any of the real-questions pounding in my head. Instead, we talked of the coming vacation days, a "plan" for the here and now in the islands. James Patterson
Look. I brought you here to give you a choice-"You didn't bring us here," said Nick."You're here," said Bod. "I wanted you here. I came here. You followed me. Same thing. Neil Gaiman
Edith Wharton quote: "Isn't it natural that I should belittle all the things I can't..."
Isn't it natural that I should belittle all the things I can't offer you? Edith Wharton
Don DeLillo quote: "The falling away of things we carry around with us, twilight..."
The falling away of things we carry around with us, twilight and chimney smoke. Don DeLillo
I am a person who feels guilty for crimes I have not committed, or have not committed in years. The police search the train station for a serial rapist and I cover my face with a newspaper, wondering if maybe I did it in my sleep. The last thing I stole was an eight-track tape, but to this day I'm unable to enter a store without feeling like a shoplifter. It's all the anxiety with none of the free stuff. David Sedaris
When it comes to love, there are a million theories to explain it. But when it comes to love stories, things are simpler. A love story can never be about full posession. The happy marriage, the requited love, the desire that never dims-- these are lucky eventualities but they aren't love stories. Love stories depend on disappointment, on unequal births and feuding families, on matrimonial boredom and at least one cold heart. Love stories, nearly without exception, give love a bad name. Jeffrey Eugenides
The statistical method shows the facts in the light of the ideal average but does not give us a picture of their empirical reality. While reflecting an indisputable aspect of reality, it can falsify the actual truth in a most misleading way. This is particularly true of theories which are based on statistics. The distinctive thing about real facts, however, is their individuality. Not to put too fine a point on it, once could say that the real picture consists of nothing but exceptions to the...
