Way Quotes (page 374)

Jakob Hlasek is six foot two and built like a halfback, his blond hair in a short square Eastern European cut, with icy eyes and cheekbones out to here: He looks like either a Nazi male model or a lifeguard in hell and seems in general just way too scary ever to try to talk to. His backhand is a one-hander, rather like Ivan Lendl’s, and watching him practice it is like watching a great artist casually sketch something. I keep having to remember to blink. David Foster Wallace
I have no way and therefore want no eyes. I stumbled when I saw. Full oft 'tis seen our means secure us, and our mere defects prove our commodities. William Shakespeare
Child, that is why all the rest are now a horror to her. That is what happens to those who pluck and eat fruits at the wrong time and in the wrong way. Oh, the fruit is good, but they loath it ever after. C. S. Lewis

Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "Like tourists huffing and puffing to reach the peak we forget..."
Like tourists huffing and puffing to reach the peak we forget the view on the way up. Friedrich Nietzsche
People have presuppositions... By 'presuppositions' we mean the basic way that an individual looks at life- his worldview. The grid through which he sees the world. Presuppositions rest upon that which a person considers to be the truth of what exists. A person's presuppositions provide the basis for their values- and therefore the basis for their decisions. Francis Schaeffer
Harper Lee quote: "You see they could never, never understand that I live like I..."
You see they could never, never understand that I live like I do because that's the way I want to live. Harper Lee
Sue Monk Kidd quote: "People start out one way, and by the time life gets through..."
People start out one way, and by the time life gets through with them they end up completely different. Sue Monk Kidd
There is a lot of time between now and the fall term. There is a lot of time between now and the day after tomorrow if you want to put it that way ... Ernest Hemingway
What those years said of themselves was that they were the most joyous of years, and anyone who failed to rejoice was immediately suspected of lamenting the victory of the working class or |what was equally sinful| giving way individualistically to inner sorrows. Milan Kundera
Though I am young, and cannot tell Either what Death or Love is well, Yet I have heard they both bear darts, And both do aim at human hearts. And then again, I have been told Love wounds with heat, as Death with cold; So that I fear they do but bring Extremes to touch, and mean one thing. As in a ruin we it call One thing to be blown up, or fall; Or to our end like way may have By a flash of lightning, or a wave; So Love’s inflamd shaft or brand May kill as soon... Ben Jonson
B. B. King quote: "The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it..."
The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it way from you. B. B. King
He who has perceived the material out of which the Promethean tragic writers prior to Euripides formed their heroes, and how remote from their purpose it was to bring the faithful mask of reality onto the stage, will also be aware of the utterly opposite tendency of Euripides. Through him the everyday man forced his way from the spectators' seats onto the stage; the mirror in which formerly only grand and bold traits were represented now showed the painful fidelity that conscientiously... Friedrich Nietzsche
What then is the source of my errors? They are owing simply to the fact that, since the will extends further than the intellect, I do not contain the will within the same boundaries; rather, I also extend it to things I do not understand. Because the will is indifferent in regard to such matters, it easily turns away from the true and the good; and in this way I am deceived and I sin. Rene Descartes
