Yourself Quotes (page 136)

Perhaps he was a fool, but he thought that if a work were truly great you would only have to read it once and you would be stolen from yourself, desperately moved, changed forever. Mark Helprin
Nothing important, or meaningful, or beautiful, or interesting, or great ever came out of imitations. The thing that is really hard and really amazing is to give up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself. A. Whitney Brown
Stars burn clearall night till dawn. Do that yourself, and a spring will rise in the dark with water your deepest thirst is for. Rumi
Bram Stoker quote: "Doctor, you don't know what it is to doubt everything, even..."
Doctor, you don't know what it is to doubt everything, even yourself. No, you don't; you couldn't with eyebrows like yours. Bram Stoker
He wanted to write about country so it would be there like Cezanne had done it in a painting. You have to do it from inside yourself... You could do it if you wanted to fight for it. If you'd lived right with your eyes. Ernest Hemingway
Marcus Aurelius quote: "Do what you will. Even if you tear yourself apart, most people..."
Do what you will. Even if you tear yourself apart, most people will continue doing the same things. Marcus Aurelius
It is not only species of animal that die out, but whole species of feeling. And if you are wise you will never pity the past for what it did not know, but pity yourself for what it did. John Fowles
The thing about life is that you must survive. Life is going to be difficult, and dreadful things will happen. What you do is move along, get on with it, and be tough. Not in the sense of being mean to others, but being tough with yourself and making a deadly effort not to be defeated. Katharine Hepburn
Self-discipline is the ability to make yourself do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not. Elbert Hubbard
Be Yourself. Let who you are, what you are, what you believe, shine through every sentence you write, every piece you finish. John Jakes
It's the hardest thing in the world to put yourself in someone else's place, try to really feel what they feel, figure out why they do the things they do. Especially when it's easier to stick a label on something. Or someone. David Baldacci
The way to get a man interested and to hold his interest was to talk about himself, and then gradually lead the conversation around yourself—and keep it there. Margaret Mitchell
There's such a gulf between yourself and who you were then, but people speak to that other person and it answers; it's like having a stranger as a house guest in your skin. Barbara Kingsolver
Until a few months ago we had a code of honor, and even the worst ruffians behaved with decency. You could leave your gold in a tent with no guard and no one would touch it, but now all that has changed. The law of the jungle rules, the only ideology is greed. Don't let yourself be parted from your weapons, and always travel in pairs or groups, because this is a land of thieves. Isabel Allende
I would have gone too but I wanted to come straight back to you. I kept thinking of you, waiting here, all by yourself, not knowing what was going to happen. Daphne du Maurier
