Where Quotes (page 175)

When we got to the marina we saw this beautiful boat named Tara waiting for us. Fredo, Carin, Ryan, Dan, Kenny, Allison, my mom, and me were all together to enjoy that extraordinary day. As the boat pulled away from the city, its skyline vanished into the horizon. The captain took us to this area where we sailed through caves and lush hilly landscapes. All of a sudden, the captain pushed the throttle all the way down and we started bombing across the water like we were in a James Bond movie.... Justin Bieber
Michael Palin quote: "The Buddhist version of poverty is a situation where you have..."
The Buddhist version of poverty is a situation where you have nothing to contribute. Michael Palin
Like the prophet Jonas, whom God ordered to go to Nineveh, I found myself with an almost uncontrollable desire to go in the opposite direction. God pointed one way and all my "ideals" pointed in the other. It was when Jonas was traveling as fast as he could away from Nineveh, toward Tharsis, that he was thrown overboard, and swallowed by a whale who took him where God wanted him to go...But I feel that my own life is especially sealed with this great sign, which baptism and monastic... Thomas Merton
They buy things in ready-made stores. But since there are no stores where you can buy friends, people no longer have friends. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
There’s lots of people will help you with alcohol business, but there’s no one out there arranging little meetings where you can stand up and say, ‘My name is Sam Vimes and I’m a really suspicious bastard. Terry Prachett
you, who must leave everything/ that you cannot control/ it begins with your family, but soon it comes round/ to your soul/ well, I've been where you're hanging, I think I can see how you're pinned/ when you're not feeling holy, your loneliness says/ that youve sinned Leonard Cohen
I sat there and forgot and forgot, until what remained was the river that went by and I who watched... Eventually the watcher joined the river, and there was only one of us. I believe it was the river. Even the anatomy of a river was laid bare. Not far downstream was a dry channel where the river had run once, and part of the way to come to know a thing is through its death. But years ago I had known the river when it flowed through this now dry channel, so I could enliven its stony remains... Norman Maclean
And so I will take back up my poor life, so plain and so tranquil, where phrases are adventures and the only flowers I gather are metaphors. Gustave Flaubert
Joyce Maynard quote: "There was a way of looking at the world where practically..."
There was a way of looking at the world where practically every single thing that happened had some kind of double meaning. Joyce Maynard
Neal Stephenson quote: "class is more than income - it has to do with knowing where..."
...class is more than income - it has to do with knowing where you stand in a web of social relationships. Neal Stephenson
That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. J. D. Salinger
In the rain forest, no niche lies unused. No emptiness goes unfilled. No gasp of sunlight goes untrapped. In a million vest pockets, a million life-forms quietly tick. No other place on earth feels so lush. Sometimes we picture it as an echo of the original Garden of Eden—a realm ancient, serene, and fertile, where pythons slither and jaguars lope. But it is mainly a world of cunning and savage trees. Truant plants will not survive. The meek inherit nothing. Light is a thick yellow vitamin... Diane Ackerman
Stephen King quote: "Home is where you dance with others, and dancing is life."
Home is where you dance with others, and dancing is life. Stephen King
She smiled and sipped from her glass. There was altogether too much of her sitting there, the broad expanse of thigh cradled in the insubstantial stocking and the garters with the pale flesh pursed and her full breasts and the sootblack piping of her eyelids, a gaudish rake of metaldust in prussian blue where cerulean moths fluttered her awake from some outlandish dream. Suttree gradually going awash in the sheer outrageous sentience of her. Their glasses clicked on the tabletop. Her hot... Cormac McCarthy
Love conquers all...Every cloud has a silver lining...Faith can move mountains...Love will always find a way...Everything happens for a reason...Where there is life, there is hope....Hmph...They gotta tell ya somethin'. Aileen Wuornos
