Very Quotes (page 211)

It’s probably not just by chance that I’m alone. It would be very hard for a man to live with me, unless he’s terribly strong. And if he’s stronger than I, I’m the one who can’t live with him. … I’m neither smart nor stupid, but I don’t think I’m a run-of-the-mill person.

I am no king, and I am no lord, And I am no soldier at-arms," said he. "I'm none but a harper, and a very poor harper, That am come hither to wed with ye." "If you were a lord, you should be my lord, And the same if you were a thief," said she. "And if you are a harper, you shall be my harper, For it makes no matter to me, to me, For it makes no matter to me." "But what if it prove that I am no harper? That I lied for your love most monstrously?" "Why, then I'll teach you to play and... Peter S. Beagle
F. Scott Fitzgerald quote: "After all, in the very casualness of Gatsby's party there were..."
After all, in the very casualness of Gatsby's party there were romantic possibilities totally absent from her world. F. Scott Fitzgerald
And as I looked, it became very clear that this five-and-ten-cent ship was in some way connected with human pretensions. This suffocating interior of a dime-store ship was my own personal self; these gimcrack mobiles of tin and plastic were my personal contributions to the universe. Aldous Huxley
And Sarah still looked like the sexiest librarian on earth, which is as those of you who frequent libraries know means very sexy indeed, but with that added owlish touch that drives you wild. Kim Stanley Robinson
Well!” thought Alice to herself. “After such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down-stairs! How brave they’ll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn’t say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!” (Which was very likely true.) Lewis Carroll
Joseph Gordon-Levitt quote: "Your heart has a little empty corner. You won't even know I'm..."
Your heart has a little empty corner. You won't even know I'm there -- I'll be very quiet. Joseph Gordon-Levitt
John Steinbeck quote: "The Lord in his wisdom gave money to very curious people,..."
The Lord in his wisdom gave money to very curious people, perhaps because they'd starve without. -Liza John Steinbeck
There is something in human pride that can stand big troubles, but we need the supernatural grace and power of God to stand by us in the little things. The tiniest detail in which we obey has all the omnipotent power of the grace of God behind it. When we do our duty, not for duty’s sake, but because we believe that God is engineering our circumstances in that way, then at the very point of our obedience the whole superb grace of God is ours. Oswald Chambers
I did nothing but run away from the time I was a puppy, and I kept on running and roving until one fine morning - a very fine morning, with the sun in my eyes - I fell over the world's edge chasing a butterfly. J. R. R. Tolkien
Albert Camus quote: "There are very few large and many poor feelings in everyone's..."

She was filled with a strange, wild, unfamiliar happiness, and knew that this was love. Twice in her life she had mistaken something else for it; it was like seeing somebody in the street who you think is a friend, you whistle and wave and run after him, but it is not only not the friend, but not even very like him. A few minutes later the real friend appears in view, and then you can’t imagine how you ever mistook that other person for him. Nancy Mitford
But what I knew then was that nobody-not even my mother-was to be trusted in a strange world that showed very little of itself in the surface. Robertson Davies
