Emily Giffin quote: "My wants are simple: a job that I like and a guy whom I love."
My wants are simple: a job that I like and a guy whom I love. Emily Giffin
As long as the firmament of the You is spread over me, the tempests of causality cower at my heels, and the whirl of doom congeals. The human being to whom I say You I do not experience. But i stand in relation to him, in the sacred basic word. Only when I step out of this do I experience him again. Experience is remoteness from You. Martin Buber
And meanwhile the sad truth was that not everyone could be extraordinary, not everyone could be extremely cool; because whom would this leave to be ordinary? Jonathan Franzen
And that is enough to raise your thoughts to what may happen when the redeemed soul, beyond all hope and nearly beyond belief, learns at last that she has pleased Him whom she was created to please. There will be no room for vanity then. She will be free from the miserable illusion that it is her doing. With no taint of what we should now call self-approval she will most innocently rejoice in the thing that God has made her to be, and the moment which heals her old inferiority complex forever... C. S. Lewis
But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime. Frederic Bastiat
Beneatha: You didn't tell us what Alaiyo means... for all I know, you might be calling me Little Idiot or something......Asagai: It means... it means One for Whom Bread--Food--Is Not Enough. Lorraine Hansberry
There is more sense in your language, Bucklaw," replied the Master, "than might have been expected from your conduct - it is too true, our vices steal upon us in forms outwardly fair as those of the demons whom the superstitious represent as intriguing with the human race, and are not discovered in their native hideousness until we have clasped them in our arms. Walter Scott
Mrs. Jennings was a widow, with an ample jointure. She had only two daughters, both of whom she had lived to see respectably married, and she had now therefore nothing to do but to marry all the rest of the world. Jane Austen
....whatever you do, with whom you do it or whether you do it alone, and when, and how, and why, to what mysterious end—it's balanced against nothing, against Death and forgetting. You balanced against oblivion. Joyce Carol Oates
It is in the twenties that the actual momentum of life begins to slacken, and it is a simple soul indeed to whom as many things are as significant and meaningful at thirty as at ten years before. At thirty an organ-grinder is a more or less a moth eaten man who grinds an organ - and once he was an organ-grinder! The unmistakable stigma of humanity touches all those impersonal and beautiful things that only youth ever grasps in their impersonal glory. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Joseph Stalin quote: "Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in..."
Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed. Joseph Stalin
Ayn Rand quote: "We are not used to persons who do things simply for the love..."
We are not used to persons who do things simply for the love of god whom they don't believe in. Ayn Rand
Some are young people who don't know who they are, what they can be or even want to be. They are afraid, but they don't know of what. They are angry, but they don't know at whom. They are rejected and they don't know why. All they want is to be somebody. Thomas S. Monson
Percy Bysshe Shelley quote: "In friendships I had been most fortunate. Yet never saw I one..."
In friendships I had been most fortunate. Yet never saw I one whom I would call. More willingly my friend Percy Bysshe Shelley
But in every church there are people who, for reasons which seem sufficient to them, do not approve of their pastor and seek to harry him and bully him into some condition pleasing to themselves. The democracy which the Reformation brought into the Christian Church rages in their bosoms like a fire; they would deny that they regard their clergyman as their spiritual hired hand, whom they boss and oversee for his own good, but that is certainly the impression they give to observers. Robertson Davies
