Tying Quotes (page 8)

When she had packed all the artifacts that made up their personal history into liquor store boxes, the house became strictly a feminine place. She stood with her hands on her hips, stoically accepting the absence of old Boston Celtics coasters and the tangle of fishing poles, the old dartboard from a Scots pub, the toolbox and downhill skis, the silky patterned ties which sat in the base of one box like a writing mass of snakes. Without these things, one tended to notice the bright eyelet... Jodi Picoult
Toni Morrison quote: "If a Negro got legs he ought to use them. Sit down too long,..."
If a Negro got legs he ought to use them. Sit down too long, somebody will figure out a way to tie them up. Toni Morrison
The morning air was like a new dress. That made her feel the apron tied around her waist. She untied it and flung it on a low bush beside the road and walked on, picking flowers and making a bouque? From now on until death she was going to have flower dust and springtime sprinkled over everything. Zora Neale Hurston
Instead, ourselves the beneficiaries of this kind of benign neglect, we now measure success as the extent to which we manage to keep our children monitored, tethered, tied to us. Joan Didion
Thomas Jefferson quote: "when you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on"
when you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on Thomas Jefferson

What does tamed mean? It's something that's been too often neglected. It means to create ties. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Arthur Rimbaud quote: "It began as research. I wrote of silences, of nights, I..."
It began as research. I wrote of silences, of nights, I scribbled the indescribable. I tied down the vertigo. Arthur Rimbaud

Washington Irving quote: "The tie which links mother and child is of such pure and..."
The tie which links mother and child is of such pure and immaculate strength as to be never violated. Washington Irving
Dark girls, fair girls were patting their hair, tying ribbons again, tucking handkerchiefs down the fronts of their bodices, smoothing marble-white gloves. And because they were all laughing it seemed to Leila that they were all lovely. Katherine Mansfield
John Wooden quote: "We will begin by learning how to tie our shoes."
We will begin by learning how to tie our shoes. John Wooden
I will not let a political party tell me how to live, when to die or what to believe in. Our souls are linked to the universe, but we can never see heaven, because our flesh ties us to the earth and the people around us. But when the people around you have lost their will to be free, then earth becomes a hell. Ma Jian
True opinions are a fine thing and do all sorts of good so long as they stay in their place; but they will not stay long. They run away from a man's mind, so they are not worth much until you tether them by working out the reason. Once they are tied down, they become knowledge, and are stable. Plato
Squatting on old bones and excrement and rusty iron, in a white blaze of heat, a panorama of naked idiots stretches to the horizon. Complete silence - their speech centres are destroyed - except for the crackle of sparks and the popping of singed flesh as they apply electrodes up and down the spine. White smoke of burning flesh hangs in the motionless air. A group of children have tied an idiot to a post with barbed wire and built a fire between his legs and stand watching with bestial... William S. Burroughs
The ties that bind us to life are tougher than you imagine, or than any one can who has not felt how roughly they may be pulled without breaking. Anne Bronte
