Wearing Quotes (page 13)

If it were not for the depressing heat and the urgency of the work, one could sit down and laugh to tears at the absurdity of the thing, and under the circumstances it is a little wearing. But our motto is the old west coast proverb, Softly, softly, catchee monkey; in other words, don't flurry; patience gains the day. Robert Baden-Powell
Shusaku Endo quote: "A person never knows their own true face. Everybody thinks..."
A person never knows their own true face. Everybody thinks that the phoney, posed social mask they wear is their real face. Shusaku Endo
But it was like wearing a size five sneakers when your foot is a seven- you can get by for a few steps, and then you set down and pull off the shoes because it just plain much Jodi Picoult
I dust a whole shelf of books on pregnancy, breastfeeding, the first six months, the first year, the first two years? and I wonder what the child care-deprived Maddy makes of all this. Maybe there's been some secret division of the world's women into breeders and drones, and those at the maid level are no longer supposed to be reproducing at all. Maybe this is why our office manager, Tammy, who was once a maid herself, wears inch-long fake nails and tarty little outfits? to show she's... Barbara Ehrenreich
The most exhausting thing in life, I have discovered, is being insincere. That is why so much of social life is exhausting; one is wearing a mask. I have shed my mask. Anne Morrow Lindbergh
William Shakespeare quote: "I wear my rue with a difference."
I wear my rue with a difference. William Shakespeare
I marked all kindred Powers the heart finds fair:--Truth, with awed lips; and Hope, with eyes upcast; And Fame, whose loud wings fan the ashen Past. To signal-fires, Oblivion's flight to scare; And Youth, with still some single golden hair. Unto his shoulder clinging, since the last. Embrace wherein two sweet arms held him fast; And Life, still wreathing flowers for Death to wear. Love's throne was not with these; but far above. All passionate wind of welcome and farewell Dante Gabriel Rossetti
George R. R. Martin quote: "Then armor yourself in faith, by all means, but wear a suit of..."
Then armor yourself in faith, by all means, but wear a suit of mail and plate as well. George R. R. Martin
George R. R. Martin quote: "Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not...."
Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor, and it can never be used to hurt you. George R. R. Martin
Fill your tall goblets with white wine and red, And sing brave songs of gallant love and true, Wearing soft robes of emerald and blue, And dance, as I your dances oft have led, And laugh, as I have often laughed with you -And be most merry - after I am dead. Winifred Holtby
Taylor Swift quote: "Sophistication isn't what you wear and who you know."
Sophistication isn't what you wear and who you know. Taylor Swift
A writer always wears glasses and never combs his hair. Half the time he feels angry about everything and the other half depressed. He spends most of his life in bars, arguing with other dishevelled, bespectacled writers. He says very 'deep' things. He always has amazing ideas for the plot of his next novel, and hates the one he has just published. Paulo Coelho
I walked over and looked closer at the statue of the goddess. She was wearing a headdress with a skull and a cobra and a crescent moon. Maybe this is what peace of mind was all about: having a poisonous snake on your head and smiling anyway. Wally Lamb
Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. To a man..."
Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. To a man laboring under calamity, the heat of his own fire hath sadness in it. Ralph Waldo Emerson
What does it mean to be yourself?” he asked. “If it means to do what you think you ought to do, then you’re doing that already. If it means to act like you’re exempt from society’s influence, that’s the worst advice in the world; you would probably stop bathing and wearing clothes. The advice to ‘be yourself’ is obviously nonsense. But our brains accept this tripe as wisdom because it is more comfortable to believe we have a strategy for life than to believe we have no idea how to behave. Scott Adams
