World Quotes (page 397)

You have a life and there are these volumes on either side that go unvisited; some day soon as the world winds he will lie beneath what he now stands on, dead as those insects whose sound he no longer hears, and the grass will go on growing, wild and blind. John Updike
I'm depressed! I'm completely depressed! I am firmly convinced that there is no one in this world who really likes me!"So what else is new? Charles M. Schulz
I believe that if one man were to live out his life fully and completely, were to give form to every feeling, expression to every thought, reality to every dream—I believe that the world would gain such a fresh impulse of joy that we would forget all the maladies of mediaevalism, and return to the Hellenic ideal—to something finer, richer, than the Hellenic ideal, it may be. Oscar Wilde
And amid all the splendours of the World, its vast halls and spaces, and its wheeling fires, Ilvatar chose a place for their habitation in the Deeps of Time and in the midst of the innumerable stars. J. R. R. Tolkien
Her little shoulders drove me mad; I hugged her and hugged her. And she loved it.'I love love,' she said, closing her eyes. I promised her beautiful love. I gloated over her. Our stories were told; we subsided into silence and sweet anticipatory thoughts. It was as simple as that. You could have all your Peaches and Bettys and Marylous and Ritas and Camilles and Inezes in this world; this was my girl and my kind of girlsoul, and I told her that. Jack Kerouac
Nicholas Sparks quote: "You're probably the most boring teenager in the world."
You're probably the most boring teenager in the world. Nicholas Sparks
This world is for those who are born to conquer it, Not for those who dream that are able to conquer it, even if they're right. Fernando Pessoa
You think God looks out for people?...I do. Way the world is. Somebody can wake up and sneeze somewhere in Arkansas or some damn place and before you're done there's wars and ruination and all hell. You don't know what's goin to happen. I'd say He's just about go to. I don't believe we'd make it a day otherwise. Cormac McCarthy
When we give our minds and our responsibility away, we give our lives away. If enough of us do it, we give the world away and that is precisely what we have been doing throughout known human history. This is why the few have always controlled the masses. The only difference today is that the few are now manipulating the entire planet because of the globalisation of business, banking and communications. The foundation of that control has always been the same : keep the people in ignorance,... David Icke
All those young photographers who are at work in the world, determined upon the capture of actuality, do not know that they are agents of Death. Roland Barthes
what is most original in a man's nature is often that which is most desperate. thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. if Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn't have been content to enjoy the atmosphere. Leonard Cohen
C. S. Lewis quote: "A world of automata? of creatures that worked like machines?..."
A world of automata? of creatures that worked like machines? would hardly be worth creating. C. S. Lewis
Don DeLillo quote: "This was worse than a retched nightmare. It was the nightmare..."
This was worse than a retched nightmare. It was the nightmare of real things, the fallen wonder of the world Don DeLillo
The truth is, I do indulge myself a little the more in pleasure, knowing that this is the proper age of my life to do it; and, out of my observation that most men that do thrive in the world do forget to take pleasure during the time that they are getting their estate, but reserve that till they have got one, and then it is too late for them to enjoy it. Samuel Pepys
Anne Lamott quote: "Having a baby is like suddenly getting the world's worst..."
Having a baby is like suddenly getting the world's worst roommate. Anne Lamott
