Text Quotes
By the time I was twenty-three, I’d given up any thought of becoming a fiction writer, and I didn’t return to the craft for over two decades. But, at the age of forty-five, return I did.  (Becoming Quotes) Because it’s cheaper and easier to fly than ever before, air travel is becoming democratized  (Becoming Quotes) Identity politics are becoming less important since culture’s being blended into one big thing - I look at kids’ Tumblrs and they’re all into the same things.  (Becoming Quotes) I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.  (Becoming Quotes) We can make these three dynamic words - reverence for life - a part of our lives by becoming aware that God is the source of all life and that we are one with life. The good person, said Schweitzer, is the friend of all living things.  (Becoming Quotes) I’m a very positive person, but this whole concept of having to always be nice, always smiling, always happy, that’s not real. It was like I was wearing a mask. I was becoming this perfectly chiselled sculpture, and that was bad. That took a long time to understand.  (Becoming Quotes) My first novel, ‘The Lions of Lucerne,’ just poured out of me. It was an amazing feeling of accomplishment. My biggest fear and therefore my biggest obstacle to becoming an author had been, ‘What if I spend all that time and the book is no good?’  (Becoming Quotes) My most amazing discovery was becoming a mother. It changed everything. I can’t imagine my life without these little beings.  (Becoming Quotes) The most amazing thing is that all my sorrows, all of my darkest moments, are becoming my gifts  (Becoming Quotes) The amazing thing about becoming a parent is that you will never again be your own first priority  (Becoming Quotes) I’m a proud American - becoming a citizen in 1988 was one of the most profoundly moving occasions in my life; I’m a former Texan and a recent Californian.  (Becoming Quotes) I realised that although I was fascinated with America, its history and culture, I was not interested in becoming American.  (Becoming Quotes) The death of anti-gay hate speech is no doubt being hastened by the head-spinning speed with which gays as a group - to say nothing of gay marriage - are becoming an unremarkable and even quite traditional parts of American life.  (Becoming Quotes) American magazines are becoming very patriotic beyond belief to the point that I can’t live there any more.  (Becoming Quotes) The most important thing for me to succeed in is day by day becoming a better and more prepared person.  (Becoming Quotes) Everyone’s a singer now, thanks to karaoke, for better and for much worse. But the live band is now becoming ancient history in Thailand, Cambodia, and Burma.  (Becoming Quotes) I just can’t stand the fact that they’re going out on their own - I love having my kids around, and I’m angry at them for going out and becoming independent. I want to tuck them in and drive them to school in the morning, but they just won’t let me do that anymore.  (Becoming Quotes) I’m very much aware of the dangers of becoming a cliche. Mr. Anger, someone who gets meaner, angrier on record.  (Becoming Quotes) Preparation for becoming attentive to Christianity does not consist in reading many books ... but in fuller immersion in existence.  (Becoming Quotes) My wife says that I become different once I start to work with animals. My movements become different, my mood is different. It involves letting everything fall behind you, becoming intuitive in your dealings with wild creatures in a way that bypasses reason. Sometimes it’s more like a dance than anything else.  (Becoming Quotes) A classroom . People trying to stick me in classrooms was becoming as predictable and annoying as people trying to kill me, but with less-fun results.  (Becoming Quotes) Becoming a father increases your capacity for love and your level of patience. It opens up another door in a person - a door which you may not even have known was there. That’s what I feel with my son. There’s suddenly another level of love that expands. My son is my greatest joy, out of everything in my life.  (Becoming Quotes) If Christians continue to rely on emotion and ignore evidence, they will continue to lose their children to secularism. As Ravi Zacharias points out, a tepid Christianity cannot withstand a rabid secularism. And make no mistake-secularism is rabid. The world isn’t neutral out there. Today’s culture is becoming increasingly anti-Christian.  (Becoming Quotes) Today (1950), the hatred of the Moslem countries against the West is becoming hatred against Christianity itself. Although the statesmen have not yet taken it into account, there is still grave danger that the temporal power of Islam may return and, with it, the menace that it may shake off a West which has ceased to be Christian, and affirm itself as a great anti-Christian world Power.  (Becoming Quotes) I think it’s doubly important, now that we see so many people failing. When the norm is an anti-hero, there’s a serious loss when you cannot portray a decent person on screen without it becoming slightly sentimental or feeling like it’s unrealistic.  (Becoming Quotes) I’ve never really understood why people sleep. Wasting a third of your life and becoming vulnerable for almost 8 hours every night. Doesn’t seem very appealing to me.  (Becoming Quotes) The iPod is a proprietary integrated product, although that is becoming quite modular. You can download your music from Amazon as easily as you can from iTunes. You also see modularity organized around the Android operating system that is growing much faster than the iPhone. So I worry that modularity will do its work on Apple.  (Becoming Quotes) As Apple continues to release new styles of netbooks, laptops, and even desktops with untold movie-watching and game-playing capabilities, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the iPhone operating system running on them - and the Macintosh eventually becoming a thing of the past.  (Becoming Quotes) Becoming a mother has taught me to simply things and also to appreciate being at home more  (Becoming Quotes) There are so many women out there who are single moms, really not by choice, and doing it and making it work every day. I think it’s becoming much more a part of our culture and I hope that it will become more accepted and that those women are going to be more and more appreciated, respected and supported.  (Becoming Quotes)
