Alas Quotes

The natural idealism of youth is an idealism, alas, for which we do not always provide as many outlets as we should Picture Quote #1

Sometimes writers say true things about the overall nature of publicity, promotion, and the publishing industry; but alas, not always Picture Quote #1

It is not a case we are treating; it is a living, palpitating, alas, too often suffering fellow creature Picture Quote #1

Marrying to increase love is like gaming to become rich; alas, you only lose what little stock you had before Picture Quote #1

Alas! that my body, clean and whole, never been corrupted, today must be consumed and burnt to ashes! Picture Quote #1

In the present age, alas! our pens are ravished by unlettered authors and unmannered critics, that make a havoc rather than a building, a wilderness rather than a garden. But, a lack! what boots it to drop tears upon the preterit? Picture Quote #1

You do not play then at whist, sir? Alas, what a sad old age you are preparing for yourself! Picture Quote #1

The absence of the will to live is, alas, not sufficient to make one want to die Picture Quote #1

I was remembering the things we had done together, the times we had had. It would have been pleasant to preserve that comradeship in the days that came after. Pleasant, but alas, impossible. That which had brought us together had gone, and now our paths diverged, according to our natures and needs. We would meet again, from time to time, but always a little more as strangers; until perhaps at last, as old men with only memories left, we could sit together and try to share them Picture Quote #1

Alas, everything that men say to one another is alike; the ideas they exchange are almost always the same, in their conversation. But inside all those isolated machines, what hidden recesses, what secret compartments! It is an entire world that each one carries within him, an unknown world that is born and dies in silence! What solitudes all these human bodies are! Picture Quote #1

Life goes on and on after one’s luck has run out. Youthfulness persists, alas, long after one has ceased to be young Picture Quote #1

Alas for those girls who’ve refused the truth: The sweetest tongue has the sharpest tooth Picture Quote #1

It is a melancholy illusion of those who write books and articles that the printed word survives. Alas, it rarely does Picture Quote #1

... by and by a change came: I started to muse about the shape of my nose. I put my trivial surroundings aside and mused more and more about myself, and I found this to be a bewitching occupation. I stopped asking and longed instead to speak of my thoughts and feelings. Alas, there was no one besides myself who found me interesting Picture Quote #1

Alas! that the farthest and of all our thoughts should be the thought of our ends Picture Quote #1

There are thousands of books on the joy of gardening and cooking. Alas, there are only few on the joy of living Picture Quote #1

Alas, this mundane realm is never as fun as the one inside our minds. But we can endeavor to make it so Picture Quote #1

Happy and alone, you say? Reclusive and merry? How oxymoronic! Pas possible! Alas, the concept is lost on so many Picture Quote #1

Yes, alas, I’ve been on some recording sessions where the music wasn’t good. Not so many, really, considering how many I’ve done. It’s a very awkward situation because to do a recording well you focus on the positive of what will make the piece better Picture Quote #1

Alas, what wickedness to swallow flesh into our own flesh, to fatten our greedy bodies by cramming in other bodies, to have one living creature fed by the death of another! Picture Quote #1

Next to the young, I suppose the very old are the most selfish. Alas, the heart hardens as the blood ceases to run. The cold snow strikes down from the head, and checks the glow of feeling. Who wants to survive into old age after abdicating all his faculties one by one, and be sans teeth, sans eyes, sans memory, sans hope, sans sympathy? Picture Quote #1

Alas, poor men, their destiny. When all goes well a shadow will overthrow it. If it be unkind one stroke of a wet sponge wipes all the picture out Picture Quote #1

Alas, why does my mind have to walk through the dust of the past every day? Picture Quote #1

The dumpling is indeed of more ancient institution, and of foreign origin; but alas, what were those dumplings? Nothing but a few lentils sodden together, moisten’d and cemented with a little seeth’d fat Picture Quote #1

Alas, our rulers are not gods, but puny, fallible men, like the kings who constantly forget their parts, and we common men should be their prompters Picture Quote #1

Alas! in nature, as in art, we gain only according to our capacity. You cannot put an ocean in a pint pot Picture Quote #1

Alas! the scientific conscience had got into the debasing company of money obligation and selfish respects Picture Quote #1

Indeed, I have, alas! outlived almost every one of my contemporaries. One pays dear for living long Picture Quote #1

The chief secret of comfort lies in not suffering trifles to vex us, and in prudently cultivating our undergrowth of small pleasures, since very few great ones, alas! are let on long leases Picture Quote #1

Alas! how much there is in education, and in our social institutions, to prepare us and our children for insanity Picture Quote #1
