Way Quotes (page 398)

I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything should just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say 'figment'. Andy Warhol
Brian Tracy quote: "The way you give your name to others is a measure of how much..."
The way you give your name to others is a measure of how much you like and respect yourself. Brian Tracy
Hurl yourself at goals above your head and bear the lacerations that come when you slip and make a fool of yourself. Try always, as long as you have breath in your body, to take the hard way–and work, work, work to build yourself into a rich, continually evolving entity. Sylvia Plath
When those you love die, the best you can do is honor their spirit for as long as you live. You make a commitment that you're going to take whatever lesson that person or animal was trying to teach you, and you make it true in your own life... it's a positive way to keep their spirit alive in the world, by keeping it alive in yourself. Patrick Swayze
Try to find pleasure in the speed that you're not used to. Changing the way you do routine things allows a new person to grow inside of you. But when all is said and done, you're the one who must decide how you handle it. Paulo Coelho
Rumi quote: "I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that..."
I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here will have to take me home. Rumi
I think of how each person in a marriage owes it to the other to find individual happiness, even in a shared life. That this is the only way to grow together, instead of apart. Emily Giffin
Oscar Wilde quote: "There are two ways to dislike poetry: One is to dislike it;..."
There are two ways to dislike poetry: One is to dislike it; the other is to read Pope. Oscar Wilde
The business card does not fully reflect who we are. We are being judged, we feel, in a humiliating way. We feel there is so much in us that has not got an expression in capitalism. You know, capitalism is a machine that recognizes outward financial, external achievement. And most of us carry all kinds of richness which we are unable to translate into that language. Alain de Botton
You have to be always drunk. That's all there is to it - it's the only way. So as not to feel the horrible burden of time that breaks your back and bends you to the earth, you have to be continually drunk. But on what? Wine, poetry or virtue, as you wish. But be drunk. Charles Baudelaire
The novelist makes his statements by selection, and if he is any good, he selects every word for a reason, every detail for a reason, every incident for a reason, and arranges them in a certain time-sequence for a reason. He demonstrates something that cannot possibly be demonstrated any other way than with a whole novel. Flannery O'Connor
Stephen Covey quote: "Doing the right things for the right reason in the right way..."
Doing the right things for the right reason in the right way is the key to Quality of Life! Stephen Covey
Well, I need a job. Something that'll leave me the free time I want."I like the way you arrange your life. What do you intend to do with this free time?"I intend to use it." I didn't like the implication of this. Why should he need his time free and I be questioned? Saul Bellow
I've been going a long time nowalong the way I've learned some things. You have to make the good times yourselftake the little times and make them into big timesand save the times that are all rightfor the ones that aren't so good. Rod McKuen
Michael Crichton quote: "Life breaks free. Life expands to new territories. Painfully,..."
Life breaks free. Life expands to new territories. Painfully, perhaps even dangerously. But life finds a way. Michael Crichton
