True Ones Quotes (page 16)

For, after all, every one who wishes to gain true knowledge must climb the Hill Difficulty alone, and since there is no royal road to the summit, I must zigzag it in my own way.

Every struggle is a victory. One more effort and I... Helen Keller
When I say 'I will be true to you' I am drawing a quiet space beyond the reach of other desires. No one can legislate love; it cannot be given orders or cajoled into service. Love belongs to itself, deaf to pleading and unmoved by violence. Love is not something you can negotiate. Love is the one thing stronger than desire and the only proper reason to resist temptation. Jeanette Winterson
Mr Boultbee seems to have done us a good turn," said Nicholas. "I gather his sermons were not much liked."No; we got very tired of Africa and I didn't feel that what he told us rang quite true. He said that one African chief had had a thousand wives. I found that a little difficult to believe."Well, we know what men are," said Jane casually, surprised that Miss Dogget, with her insistence on men only wanting one thing, should have found this difficult to believe.

When you're with a man, no one tells you he's a creep; they don't like to; they think, well, that's her choice, perhaps ours isn't up to much either; how will we ever be sure, in this polite world? In other words, as we all know, one woman's creep is another's true love, and just as well. Fay Weldon
Edna St. Vincent Millay quote: "It's not true that life is one damn thing after another; it's..."
It's not true that life is one damn thing after another; it's one damn thing over and over. Edna St. Vincent Millay
In the true sense one's native land, with its background of tradition, early impressions, reminiscences and other things dear to one, is not enough to make sensitive human beings feel at home. Emma Goldman
It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business. Mahatma Gandhi
Frederic William Farrar quote: "There is only one real failure in life that is possible, and..."
There is only one real failure in life that is possible, and that is, not to be true to the best one knows. Frederic William Farrar
The fact that a person loves one particular person is what is important; the life lesson, whether you are homosexual or heterosexual, is that you not be promiscuous, and true to one person. Loretta Devine
Something similar is still true of the courses followed by manifold intuitions which together make up the unity of one continuous consciousness of one and the same object. Edmund Husserl
George Eliot quote: "There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to..."
There is only one failure in life possible, and that is not to be true to the best one knows. George Eliot
Somewhere in my wildest childhood I must have done something right. Being able to make a boyhood dream come true is one thing, but to have a kid come along and thrill his dad like Brett Hull has thrilled me over his career is too much for one guy to handle. Bobby Hull
Perhaps there is an idea among Japanese students that one general difference between Japanese and Western poetry is that the former cultivates short forms and the latter longer ones, gut this is only in part true. Lafcadio Hearn
Ringo is one of the world's true humans. The only one out those four guys, who did not have an agenda. Ringo was just into the music. Peter Tork
In journalism just one fact that is false prejudices the entire work. In contrast, in fiction one single fact that is true gives legitimacy to the entire work. That's the only difference, and it lies in the commitment of the writer. A novelist can do anything he wants so long as he makes people believe in it. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
