Chance Quotes

There is a God. Nothing as tragic and ridiculous as this world could have happened by random chance Picture Quote #1

She never got a chance to fall out of love, to do it properly, slowly and thoroughly, and the result was he was like a phantom limb. Gone but still there. And like a true phantom limb, the preponderance of feelings associated with him were painful Picture Quote #1

They were two lovely choices. One of them meant giving up every chance of a decent life forever... and the other one scared me out of my mind Picture Quote #1

To hope under the most extreme circumstances is an act of defiance that permits a person to live his life on his own terms. It is part of the human spirit to endure and give a miracle a chance to happen Picture Quote #1

If you have the words, there’s always a chance that you’ll find the way Picture Quote #1

I trust you have seen the ocean. If you have, then you have witnessed the divine. How barren the ground is in comparison! If I could count the hours I have spent staring out at it! And yet those hours never feel lost. I cannot imagine how else I could refill them were I given a second chance Picture Quote #1

If you want to give yourself a fair chance to succeed, never expect too much too soon Picture Quote #1

... This is the first time I have met someone who seeks out people and who sees beyond... We never look beyond our assumptions and, what’s worse, we have given up trying to meet others; we just meet ourselves. We don’t recognize each other because other people have become our permanent mirrors. If we actually realized this, if we were to become aware of the fact that we are alone in the wilderness, we would go crazy... As for me, I implore fate to give me the chance to see beyond myself and truly meet someone Picture Quote #1

I’d like to emphasize that when a reader finishes a great novel, he will immediately begin looking for another. If someone loves your book, it increases the chance that he or she will look at mine. So there is no competition between writers. Another writer’s success helps build a larger readership for all of us Picture Quote #1

These things... they are who you are. They brought you here. To this day. You didn’t give me a chance to understand that ever the unattractive parts of you, the messy parts, were something I could accept Picture Quote #1

Yes, we all know that there’s a good chance the missiles won’t work properly when the government people finally come to get them, but over the years we’ve stopped worrying about that. Deep down, most of us feel it’s probably better this way. After all, if there are families in faraway countries with their own backyard missiles, armed and pointed back at us, we would hope that they too have found a much better use for them Picture Quote #1

Remember that, lad, if you never remember anything else. We all touch each other’s lives, for better or for worse. So say the things you have to say to people while you still have the chance Picture Quote #1

He had no settled plan of life, nor looked forward at all, but merely lived from day to day. Yet he read a great deal in a desultory manner, without any scheme of study, as chance threw books in his way, and inclination directed him through them Picture Quote #1

Sometimes we know in our bones what we really need to do, but we’re afraid to do it. Taking a chance and stepping beyond the safety of the world we’ve always known is the only way to grow, though and without risk there is no reward Picture Quote #1

If, in our world, there is any chance of becoming the person you haven’t yet become... will I know how to seize that chance, turn my life into a garden that will be completely different from my forebears’? Picture Quote #1

... when it came to dying, I was scared. Not of being dead, that I could not comprehend, to be nothing was impossible to grasp and therefore really nothing to be scared of, but the dying itself I could comprehend, the very instant when you know that now comes what you have always feared, and you suddenly realise that every chance of being the person you really wanted to be, is gone for ever, and the one you were, is the one those around you will remember Picture Quote #1

I listened, vaguely knowing now that I had committed some awful wrong that I could not undo, that I had uttered words I could not recall even though I ached to nullify them, kill them, turn back time to the moment before I had talked so that I could have another chance to save myself Picture Quote #1

If a train is coming at you, closing your eyes won’t save you... but if you look right at it, you at least have a chance to jump Picture Quote #1

You know what it’s like. Sometimes, you meet a wonderful person, but it’s only for a brief instant. Maybe on vacation or on a train or maybe even in a bus line. And they touch your life for a moment, but in a special way. And instead of mourning because they can’t be with you for longer, or because you don’t get the chance to know them better, isn’t it better to be glad that you met them at all? Picture Quote #1

We don’t go to the ocean for anything as simple as happiness, do we? We go there to feel alive. Like life, the ocean holds chance and change, grief and terror and beauty. It promises mortality, not peace Picture Quote #1

He just hijacks me. I love him. And I won’t be able to give anyone a real chance until that’s over Picture Quote #1

Only when the mind is free has the body a chance to be free. Yes, they must believe, they must believe. Because I know what it means to be a slave. I am a slave Picture Quote #1

There are few times when we know with absolute certainty we are going to do something for the last time. Life has a way of moving in circles, bringing us back to places we didn’t expect and taking us away from those we do. There are too many times we don’t pay close enough attention, and moments are lost in our assumption we’ll have another chance Picture Quote #1

There exists a world. In terms of probability this borders on the impossible. It would have been far more likely if, by chance, there was nothing at all. Then, at least, no one would have began asking why there was nothing Picture Quote #1

Where there is chance of gain, there is also chance of loss. Whenever one courts great happiness, one also risks malaise Picture Quote #1

I helped you because you’re new, and because when there’s two people in a cell then there’s only a fifty percent chance they’ll take you Picture Quote #1

If there is no fate and our interactions depend on such a complex system of chance encounters, what potentially important connections do we fail to make? What life changing relationships or passionate and lasting love affairs are lost to chance? Picture Quote #1

The world is still new... it seems old to us, but only seems because our lives are so short... our human race has been around for such a brief amount of time that the universe hasn’t had the chance to detect us yet. One blink is all it needs to miss our dance through actuality Picture Quote #1

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond Picture Quote #1

For most of my life I’ve been a listener. At least in the beginning, I think the reason I listened so intently was to have a chance of hearing the train before it ran over me Picture Quote #1
