Text Quotes
It’s amazing the gymnastics you can do when you don’t want to do something. How you can force yourself against all the forces of nature. I threw myself backward. (Backward Quotes)
I look at Anderson Silva and he can fight moving forward, he can fight moving backward, and he can fight moving left or right. It’s something that I don’t think anyone else in the sport other than Chuck Liddell has really been able to do. (Backward Quotes)
When there’s no experimenting there’s no progress. Stop experimenting and you go backward. If anything goes wrong, experiment until you get to the very bottom of the trouble. (Backward Quotes)

I would bend over backward to be back on Grey’s. Any day, I’ll choose lying in bed with Katherine Heigl looking over me over getting thrown against walls by supernatural persons at 5 in the morning. (Backward Quotes)
It’s weird, because American films in the 1930s and 40s, particularly melodramas, were made for woman, from Bette Davis to Joan Crawford to Barbara Stanwyck to Katherine Hepburn, and for some reason we’ve taken a step backward in this sense. (Backward Quotes)

Going back to a simpler life based on living by sufficiency rather than excess is not a step backward. (Backward Quotes)
My journey has been a very slow build-up. Each year has been a step upward. I’ve never actually gone backward. (Backward Quotes)
It looks as if the offspring have eyes so that they can see well (bad, teleological, backward causation), but that’s an illusion. The offspring have eyes because their parents’ eyes did see well (good, ordinary, forward causation). (Backward Quotes)
I’ve been barbecued, stewed, screwed, tattooed, and fried by people claiming to be my friends. The human race has gone backward, not forward, since the days we were apes swinging through the trees. (Backward Quotes)
I’m not sure he’s wrong about automobiles, he said. With all their speed forward they may be a step backward in civilization -- that is, in spiritual civilization. It may be that they will not add to the beauty of the world, nor to the life of men’s souls. (Backward Quotes)
Writers begin changing the instant they append ‘The End’ to a novel. Readers begin changing the moment they encounter that same phrase. And even the novels themselves, through the strange transmutations of time and shifting tastes and mores, exhibit changes as we look backward upon them, acquiring retroactive meanings and tonalities. (Backward Quotes)
The advocates of retaliatory wars will continue to assume a much simpler reality with their hoary oppositions: Religious and secular, backward and enlightened, free and unfree. But if we are to admit how deeply and irrevocably interconnected our world is, then we must find new ways to break the cycle of counter-productive violence. (Backward Quotes)
So here I sit in the early candle-light of old age-I and my book-casting backward glances over out travel’d road. (Backward Quotes)
We modern Marxists regard socialism as a historically brief transitional stage between feudalism and capitalism, necessary only in backward countries. (Backward Quotes)
And once again I think about how people use the devil as an alias for the things they fear. The cause and effect is backward. The devil doesn’t make anyone do anything. People just do things and blame the devil after. (Backward Quotes)
Prospective research looks forward in time to see how a group of individual change over time while retrospective research looks backward in time and attempts to reconstruct the conditions that led to the current situation. (Backward Quotes)
True stories can’t be told forward, only backward. We invent them from the vantage point of an ever-changing present and tell ourselves how they unfolded. (Backward Quotes)
I can’t deal with someone wanting to take a relationship backward or needing space or cheating on you. (Backward Quotes)
I can’t deal with someone wanting to take a relationship backward or needing space or cheating on you. It’s a conscious thing; it’s a common-sense thing. (Backward Quotes)
One of the first things one notices in a backward country is that children are still obeying their parents (Backward Quotes)
The people in ‘July, July’ do find themselves looking backward, talking to others and to themselves about those over-the-cliff, fork-in-the-road moments in their lives. I imagine this is what must happen at a 30th college reunion. (Backward Quotes)
Suggestion of the Communist Manifesto was ‘abolition of all right of inheritance.’ Looking backward upon the past history of estate taxes, we have to realize that they more and more have approached the goal set by Marx. Estate taxes of the height they have already attained for the upper brackets are no longer to be qualified as taxes. They are measures of expropriation. (Backward Quotes)
Liberalism, contrary to popular belief, is facing backward in considering the injustice of its ancestors. Conservatism, contrary to popular belief, is facing forward in considering the psychology of its descendants. Definitively, it seems in the modern world that neither side really knows which direction it’s facing, and men of the sharpest judgment are simply turned off from picking either of the poisons. (Backward Quotes)

When you learn about stories in school, you get it backward. You start to think ‘Oh, the reason these things are in stories is because a book said I need to put these things in there.’ You need a death, as my husband says, and you need a little sidekick with a saying like ‘Skivel-dee-doo!’ (Backward Quotes)
