Text Quotes
I appreciate a lot in this life; the things you cannot buy. Life is only once. I am happy being here and all the things that are a risk I normally avoid  (Avoid Quotes) Politicians wishing to set a better tone should have the discipline to avoid televised cage matches  (Avoid Quotes) Before a game, I avoid having a heavy meal so that I don’t feel sleepy at the board. You eat to be healthy, and that generally takes care of everything. Also, you can’t be too finicky, since at tournaments you tend to eat at restaurants here and there. But, as long as you’re eating sensibly, it’s all good  (Avoid Quotes) Any set of decisions about design is inevitably influenced by cultural prejudice, no matter how intent an architect might be to avoid it  (Avoid Quotes) As a writer, I need an enormous amount of time alone. Writing is 90 percent procrastination: reading magazines, eating cereal out of the box, watching infomercials. It’s a matter of doing everything you can to avoid writing, until it is about four in the morning and you reach the point where you have to write. Having anybody watching that or attempting to share it with me would be grisly  (Avoid Quotes) One of the ways to avoid being beaten by the system is to laugh at it  (Avoid Quotes) Be true to the thought of the moment and avoid distraction. Other than continuing to exert yourself, enter into nothing else, but go to the extent of living single thought by single thought  (Avoid Quotes) I never killed anyone. I avoid going over that edge by writing about a guy who has taken a flying leap over it  (Avoid Quotes) Let’s just call things what they are. When a man’s love of finery clouds his moral judgment, that is vanity. When he lets a demanding palate make his moral choices, that is gluttony. When he ascribes the divine will to his own whims, that is pride. And when he gets angry at being reminded of animal suffering that his own daily choices might help avoid, that is moral cowardice  (Avoid Quotes) We both wondered whether these contradictions that one can’t avoid if one begins to think of time and space may not really be proofs that the whole of life is a dream, and the moon and stars bits of nightmare  (Avoid Quotes) None of us can avoid being contaminated by the world’s evils; it’s all a matter of what attitude you take towards them  (Avoid Quotes) I avoid that bleak first hour of the working day during which my still sluggish senses and body make every chore a penance. I find that in arriving later, the work which I do perform is of a much higher quality  (Avoid Quotes) It’s all about getting the hand of things. Easy does it; take it easy. You’ll figure everything out in time. But for right now, just keep trying. Pay attention and avoid the temptation to go further than you’re ready. Talk less. And listen more  (Avoid Quotes) It’s a cinch that if you read it in an occult periodical or paperback, everyone’s doing it. That should be your cue to avoid such stuff, lest you be relegated to the same readership level  (Avoid Quotes) If you could hold your nose to avoid a stink, or close your eyes to cut out a sight, why not shut off your brain to avoid a thought?  (Avoid Quotes) I’m extremely profane, unconsciously so, when I see something great for the first time; I don’t know why, but beauty and profanity are related to me in the same way. It may be that I want to think of art in the vernacular, but I have no control over what comes out of my mouth when my eyes take in great beauty... it might just be the reason I avoid going to museums with elderly ladies  (Avoid Quotes) …the samurai ethic is a political science of the heart, designed to control such discouragement and fatigue in order to avoid showing them to others. It was thought more important to look healthy than to be healthy, and more important to seem bold and daring than to be so. This view of morality, since it is physiologically based on the special vanity peculiar to men, is perhaps the supreme male view of morality  (Avoid Quotes) Christmas: the one time of year when you can’t avoid the nuts in your family muesli  (Avoid Quotes) I believe good plans are the best way to maximize fun, avoid disaster, and possibly, save the world. I spend a lot of my time making them  (Avoid Quotes) I wonder at what point my life swerved to avoid that, and if that life would have been nicer than the one I’ve got  (Avoid Quotes) Is the beauty myth good to men? It hurts them by teaching them how to avoid loving women. It prevents men from actually seeing women. It does not, contrary to its own professed ideology, stimulate and gratify sexual longing. In suggesting a vision in place of a woman, it has a numbing effect, reducing all senses but the visual, and impairing even that  (Avoid Quotes) When we realize that words can destroy something good, wonderful, and dear, and that by keeping silent we can avoid causing the least damage or harm, it’s easy to stay silent  (Avoid Quotes) She’d read once that if you ran into a bear in the woods you should avoid eye contact and you shouldn’t run away, but all she knew about wolves is that you should never tell them how to find your grandmother’s house  (Avoid Quotes) Raise your quality standards as high as you can live with, avoid wasting your time on routine problems, and always try to work as closely as possible at the boundary of your abilities. Do this, because it is the only way of discovering how that boundary should be moved forward  (Avoid Quotes) Grief is the price we pay for being close to one another. If we want to avoid our grief, we simply avoid each other  (Avoid Quotes) I endeavored to renounce society, that I might avoid temptation. But it was a poor religion; so far as it prevailed, only tended to make me gloomy, stupid, unsociable, and useless  (Avoid Quotes) It is easy to surpass a predecessor, but difficult to avoid being surpassed by a successor  (Avoid Quotes) I began to look at all events and all things as relevant, an opportunity to take or avoid  (Avoid Quotes) It would be nice to avoid the world, to leave it and all its threats and unhappiness. Not to die or anything like that, but to find a place of solitude and solace  (Avoid Quotes) Although human beings are incapable of talking about themselves with total honesty, it is much harder to avoid the truth while pretending to be other people. They often reveal much about themselves in a very straightforward way. I am certain that I did. There is nothing that says more about its creator than the work itself  (Avoid Quotes)
