Amy Tan Quotes

I am like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever Picture Quote #1

I felt like a rich vagabond who had passed through the world paving my way with gold fairy dust, then realizing too late that the path disintegrated as soon as I passed over it Picture Quote #1

When I returned home that day, I saw my life as if I already knew the happy ending of a story. I looked around the house and thought, soon I will no longer have to see these walls and all the unhappiness they keep inside Picture Quote #1

From what I have observed, when the anesthesia of love wears off, there is always the pain of consequences. You don’t have to be stupid to marry the wrong man Picture Quote #1

You can’t have intentions without consequences. The question is, who pays for the consequences? Saving fish from drowning. Same thing. Who’s saved? Who’s not? Picture Quote #1

How can the world in all its chaos come up with so many coincidences, so many similarities and exact opposites? Picture Quote #1

When you lose your face..., it is like dropping your necklace down a well. The only way you can get it back is to fall in after it Picture Quote #1

That is the way it is with a wound. The wound begins to close in on itself, to protect what is hurting so much. And once it is closed, you no longer see what is underneath, what started the pain Picture Quote #1

I saw a girl complaining that the pain of not being seen was unbearable... Now I have perfect understanding. I have already experienced the worst. After this, there is no worse possible thing Picture Quote #1

There’s no hope. There’s no reason to keep trying. Because you must. This is not hope. Not reason. This is your fate. This is your life, what you must do Picture Quote #1

For unlike my mother, I did not believe I could be anything I wanted to be. I could only be me Picture Quote #1

And after I played them both a few times, I realized they were two halves of the same song Picture Quote #1

Now I was a tiger that neither pounced nor lay waiting between the trees. I became an unseen spirit Picture Quote #1

It means we’re looking one way, while following another. We’re for one side and also the other. We mean what we say, but our intentions are different Picture Quote #1

They know where happiness lies, not in a cave or a country, but in love and the freedom to give and take what has been there all along Picture Quote #1

It was a distorted form of inverse logic: If hopes never come true, then hope for what you don’t want Picture Quote #1

And then she had to fill out so many forms she forgot why she had come and what she had left behind Picture Quote #1

You can have pride in what you do each day, but not arrogance in what you were born with Picture Quote #1

How can you blame a person for his fears and weaknesses unless you have felt the same and done differently? Picture Quote #1

And now I have to stop. Because every time I remember this, I have to cry a little by myself. I don’t know why something that made me so happy then feels so sad now. Maybe that is the way it is with the best memories Picture Quote #1

Why do some memories live only on your tongue or in your nose? Why do others always stay in your heart? Picture Quote #1

If I now recognize evil in other people, is it not because I have become evil too? Picture Quote #1

... we were like two people standing apart on separate mountain peaks, recklessly leaning forward to throw stones at one another, unaware of the dangerous chasm that separated us Picture Quote #1

I felt foolish and tired, as if I had been running to escape someone chasing me, only to look behind to discover there was no one there Picture Quote #1

If I look upon my whole life, I cannot think of another time when I felt more comfortable: when I had no worries, fears, or desires, when my life seemed as soft and lovely as lying inside a cocoon of rose silk Picture Quote #1

You remember only what you want to remember. You know only what your heart allows you to know Picture Quote #1

Don’t think too much. That makes you believe you have more choices than you do. Then you mind becomes confused Picture Quote #1

When you already believe something, how can you suddenly stop? When you are a loyal friend, how can you no longer be one? Picture Quote #1

We are living in a world where everything is false. The society is like bright paint applied on top of rotten wood Picture Quote #1

You should think about your character. Know where you are changing, how you will be changed, what cannot be changed back again Picture Quote #1
