World Quotes (page 419)

Like Russia's gangsterism and Bush's cronyism, contemporary Iraq is a creation of the fifty-year crusade to privatize the world. Rather than being disowned by its creators, it deserves to be seen as the purest incarnation yet of the ideology that gave it birth. Naomi Klein
Why does one love? How queer it is to see only one being in the world, to have only one thought in one's mind, only one desire in the heart, and only one name on the lips--a name which comes up continually, rising, like the water in a spring, from the depths of the soul to the lips, a name which one repeats over and over again, which one whispers ceaselessly, everywhere, like a prayer. Guy de Maupassant
Lewis Carroll quote: "up above the world you fly, like a tea tray in the sky..."
up above the world you fly, like a tea tray in the sky... Lewis Carroll

The original, shimmering self gets buried so deep that most of us end up hardly living out of it at all. Instead we live out all the other selves, which we are constantly putting on and taking off like coats and hats against the world’s weather Frederick Buechner
Marcel Proust quote: "To be an artist is to fail, as no other dare to fail......"
To be an artist is to fail, as no other dare to fail... failure is his world and the shrink from it desertion Marcel Proust

She was scared. Unprepared. Lost in the dark. Falling apart. I can't survive. Without you by my side. We're gonna be alright. This is what happens when. Two worlds collide. Demi Lovato
The photographer is an armed version of the solitary walker reconnoitering, stalking, cruising the urban inferno, the voyeuristic stroller who discovers the city as a landscape of voluptuous extremes. Adept of the joys of watching, connoisseur of empathy, the flneur finds the world 'picturesque. Susan Sontag
Douglas Adams quote: "Here, for whatever reason, is the world. And here it stays...."
Here, for whatever reason, is the world. And here it stays. With me on it. Douglas Adams
And I'm a black rainbow. And I'm an ape of god. I got a face that's made for violence upon. I'm a teen distortion. Survived abortion. A rebel from the waist down. I wanna thank you mom. I wanna thank you dad. For bringing this fucking world. To a bitter end. I never really hated a one true god. But the God of the people I hated. You said you wanted evolution. The ape was a great big hit. You say you want a revolution, man. And I say that you're full of shit Marilyn Manson
The Form of Government, which you admire, when its Principles are pure is admirable, indeed, it is productive of every Thing, which is great and excellent among Men. But its Principles are as easily destroyed, as human Nature is corrupted. Such a Government is only to be supported by pure Religion or Austere Morals. Public Virtue cannot exist in a Nation without private virtue....Without religion this world would be something not fit to be mentioned in polite company:...I mean Hell. John Adams
People love the good not much less than the beautiful, and the happy as well, or even just the living, for the world of it all, and heart's home. Annie Dillard

This world's no blot for us, Nor blank; it means intensely, and means good: To find its meaning is my meat and drink. Robert Browning
If there is an amateur reader still left in the world—or anybody who just reads and runs—I ask him or her, with untellable affection and gratitude, to split the dedication of this book four ways with my wife and children. J. D. Salinger
