Within Quotes (page 19)

They stared at her curiously, and she caught snatches of conversation in two ot three languages. It wasn't hard to guess their content, and she smiled a bit frimly. Youth, it appeared, was full of illusions as to how much sexual energy two people might have to spare while hiking forty or so kilometers a day, concussed, stunned, diseased, on poor food and little sleep, alternating caring for a wounded man with avoiding becoming dinner for every carnivore within range - and with a coup to plan... Lois McMaster Bujold
To expose our hearts to truth and consistently refuse or neglect to obey the impulses it arouses is to stymie the motions of life within us and, if persisted in, to grieve the Holy Spirit into silence. Aiden Wilson Tozer
In a sudden inspiration, Florentino Ariza opened a can of red paint that was within reach of the bunk, wet his index finger, and painted the pubis of the beautiful pigeon fancier with an arrow of blood pointing south, and on her belly the words: This pussy is mine. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Exerting yourself to the fullest within your individual limits: that’s the essence of running, and a metaphor for life—-and for me, for writing as well. Haruki Murakami
Deep within every man there lies the dread of being alone in the world, forgotten by God, overlooked among the tremendous household of millions and millions. Soren Kierkegaard
This tremendous world I have inside of me. How to free myself, and this world, without tearing myself to pieces. And rather tear myself to a thousand pieces than be buried with this world within me. Franz Kafka
Rainer Maria Rilke quote: "The work of the eyes is done. Go now and do the heart-work on..."
The work of the eyes is done. Go now and do the heart-work on the images imprisoned within you. Rainer Maria Rilke
As soon as a man and woman of almost any age are alone together within four walls it is assumed that anything may happen. Spontaneous combustion, instant fornication, triumph of the senses. What possibilities men and women must see in each other to infer such dangers. Or, believing in the dangers, how often they must think about the possibilities. Alice Munro
Morals and medicine warred within his breast, and medicine won the day- but I dare say morals may give him a sleepless night. Georgette Heyer
She was terribly pleased, because she had always, secretly, deep within her heart, believed that she could fly. And now here she was, doing what she had long suspected she could do, and she could not deny that it was gratifying in the extreme. Kate DiCamillo
Very gently and quietly, almost as if it were the blood singing in her veins, or the water of the stream running over stones, she became conscious of a new feeling within her. She wondered for a moment what it was, and then said to herself, with a little surprise at recognising in her own person so famous a thing: is happiness. Virginia Woolf
Michael Jackson quote: "You can't hurt me, I found peace within myself."
You can't hurt me, I found peace within myself. Michael Jackson
Franz Kafka quote: "Anything that has real and lasting value is always a gift from..."
Anything that has real and lasting value is always a gift from within. Franz Kafka
Shusaku Endo quote: "Every weakness contains within itself a strength."
Every weakness contains within itself a strength. Shusaku Endo
I don't know whether this world has a meaning that transcends it. But I know that I do not know that meaning and that it is impossible for me just now to know it. What can a meaning outside my condition mean to me? I can understand only in human terms. What I touch, what resists me--that is what I understand. And these two certainties--my appetite for the absolute and for unity and the impossibility of reducing this world to a rational and reasonable principle--I also know that I cannot... Albert Camus
