Thy Quotes (page 7)

This cruel age has deflected me, like a river from this course. Strayed from its familiar shores, my changeling life has flowedinto a sister channel. How many spectacles I've missed: the curtain rising without me, and falling too. How many friends. I never had the chance to meet. Anna Akhmatova
This is what happens. You put it away for a little while, and now and again you look in the closet for something else and you remember, and you think, soon. Then it becomes something that is just there, in the closet, and other things get crowded in front of it and on top of it and finally you don't think about it at all. The thing that was your bright treasure. You don't think about it. A loss you could not contemplate at one time, and now it becomes something you can barely remember. This... Alice Munro
This topic brings me to that worst outcrop of herd life, the military system, which I abhor... This plague-spot of civilization ought to be abolished with all possible speed. Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -- how passionately I hate them! Albert Einstein
Saul Williams quote: "this is her body this is her blood"
this is her body this is her blood Saul Williams
This earth is a garden, this life a banquet, and it's time we realized that it was given to all life, animal and man, to enjoy. Tom Brown, Jr.
This reconciliation with Hitler reveals the profound moral perversity of a world that rests essentially on the nonexistence of return, for in this world everything is pardoned in advance and therefore everything cynically permitted. Milan Kundera
this is what happens to the plans of humans, it is when they make them in the midst of their pleasures that death cuts the thread of their days without pity, and in the midst of life, without ever concerning themselves with this fatal moment, living as though they were to exist for ever, they disappear into the obscure cloud of immortality, uncertain of the fate which lies in store for them. Marquis de Sade
Henry Miller quote: "This is not a book, in the ordinary sense of the word. No,..."
This is not a book, in the ordinary sense of the word. No, this is a prolonged insult, a gob of spit in the face of Ar? Henry Miller
This morning I saw a coyote walking through the sagebrush right at the very edge of the ocean next stop China. The coyote was acting like he was in New Mexico or Wyoming, except that there were whales passing below. That’s what this country does for you. Come down to Big Sur and let your soul have some room to get outside its marrow. Richard Brautigan
This isn’t a matter for the eyes, it is a matter for the heart. Many signs point to a growing historical consciousness among the American people. I trust this is so. It is useful to remember that history is to the nation as memory is to the individual. As persons deprived of memory, they become disoriented and lost, not knowing where they have been and where they are going. So a nation denied a conception of the past will be disabled in dealing with its present and its future. When I’m... Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
Haruki Murakami quote: "This was never any place I was meant to be. This isn’t a place..."
This was never any place I was meant to be. This isn’t a place for me. Haruki Murakami
This magical thinking, this idea that human and personal progress is somehow inevitable, leads to political passivity.? It has turned whole nations, such as the United States, into self-consuming machines of death. Chris Hedges
Anais Nin quote: "This diary is my kief, hashish and opium pipe. This is my drug..."
This diary is my kief, hashish and opium pipe. This is my drug and my vice. Anais Nin
Saul Alinsky quote: "This is the world as it is. This is where you start."
This is the world as it is. This is where you start. Saul Alinsky
This reminds me, Godmother, to ask you a serious question. You are as wise as wise can be (having been brought up by the fairies), and you can tell me this: Is it better to have had a good thing and lost it, or never to have had it? Charles Dickens
