Worse Quotes (page 6)

Pat Conroy quote: "There were far worse strategies in life than to try to make..."
There were far worse strategies in life than to try to make each aspect of one's existence a minor work of art. Pat Conroy
Jennifer Weiner quote: "Maybe it was inertia -or worse, fear- that was keeping me in..."
Maybe it was inertia -or worse, fear- that was keeping me in the same place. Jennifer Weiner
And for all those years, we never talked about the disaster at the recital or my terrible accusations afterward at the piano bench. All that remained unchecked, like a betrayal that was now unbreakable. So I never found a way to ask her why she had hoped something so large that failure was inevitable. And even worse, I never asked her what frightened me the most: Why had she given up hope? Amy Tan
if you're just starting out as a writer, you could do worse than strip your television's electric plug-wire, wrap a spike around it, and then stick it back into the wall. See what blows, and how far. Just an idea. Stephen King
There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till. The power which resides in him is new in nature, and none but he knows what that is which he can do, nor does he know until he has... Ralph Waldo Emerson
You may have noticed how extremes call to each other, the spiritual to the animal, the caveman to the angel. You never saw a worse case than this. Arthur Conan Doyle
Sylvia Day quote: "For better or worse, he was my soul mate. The other half of..."
For better or worse, he was my soul mate. The other half of me. In many ways, he was my reflection. Sylvia Day
These distraction-oholics. These focus-ophobics. Old George Orwell got it backward. Big Brother isn't watching. He's singing and dancing. He's pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother's holding your attention every moment you're awake. He's making sure you're always distracted. He's making sure you're fully absorbed... and this being fed, it's worse than being watched. With the world always filling you, no one has to worry about what's in your mind. With everyone's imagination atrophied, no... Chuck Palahniuk
Yet is Dixon certain, as certain as the lightness he feels now, lightness premonitory of Flying, that far worse happen’d here, to these poor People, as the blood flew and the Children cried, - that at the end no one understood what they said as they died. Thomas Pynchon
He was feeling happy. It was one of the strange discoveries a man can make that life, however you lead it, contains moments of exhiliration; there are always comparisons which can be made with worse times: even in danger and misery the pendulum swings. (The Power and the Glory) Graham Greene
I suppose that one reason I have always detested religion is its sly tendency to insinuate the idea that the universe is designed with 'you' in mind or, even worse, that there is a divine plan into which one fits whether one knows it or not. This kind of modesty is too arrogant for me. Christopher Hitchens
What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse. J. D. Salinger
There is no humiliation worse than the consciousness of a wasted life. It stains the spirit, forestalls hope, and destroys any motive foraction or change. Peter Ackroyd
Neil Gaiman quote: "When angels go bad they are worse than anyone else. Remember..."
When angels go bad they are worse than anyone else. Remember Lucifer used to be an angel. Neil Gaiman
L. M. Montgomery quote: "it's so dreadful to have nothing to love? life is so empty?..."
it's so dreadful to have nothing to love? life is so empty? and there's nothing worse than emptines? L. M. Montgomery
