Choices Quotes

Your only real choices are to open fully and receive their gifts or crucify them and be relieved of their force... But you must be willing to feel your heart’s terrors and wounds or else you will close and protect yourself, striking back at the source of openness you most yearn to become Picture Quote #1

The most important thing we ever have to learn in life is to live with our choices Picture Quote #1

... there must be an inviolate place where the choices and decisions, however imperfect, are the writer’s own, where the decision must be as individual and solitary as birth or death Picture Quote #1

We are alive. We are human, with good and bad in us. That’s all we know for sure. We can’t create a new species or a new world. That’s been done. Now we have to live within those boundaries. What are our choices? We can despair and curse, and change nothing. We can choose evil like our enemies have done and create a world based on hate. Or we can try to make things better Picture Quote #1

It seemed cruelly unfair to me, even then, how fast your life can change before you have an opportunity to rethink your choices. We should get second chances on the big stuff. We should come equipped with erasers attached to the tops of our heads. Like pencils. We should be able to flip over and scribble away mistakes, at least once or twice during the duration of our existence, especially in matters of life and death Picture Quote #1

She would be a mentor and an inspiration to girls like herself, the quiet ones who’d sleepwalked their way through high school, knowing nothing except that they couldn’t possibly be happy with any of the choices the world seemed to be offering them Picture Quote #1

If we are to grow in love, the prisons of our egoism must be unlocked. This implies suffering, constant effort and repeated choices Picture Quote #1

There seemed to be three choices: to give up trying to love anyone, to stop being selfish, or to learn to love a person while continuing to be selfish Picture Quote #1

All I know is that I have two choices – stay wrapped in blankets and get on with dying, or get the list back together and get on with living Picture Quote #1

Yes, it’s vital to make lifestyle choices to mitigate damage caused by being a member of industrialized civilization, but to assign primary responsibility to oneself, and to focus primarily on making oneself better, is an immense copout, an abrogation of responsibility Picture Quote #1

People took what they wanted, they clutched at coincidences, the few there were, and made a life from them... Choices are made in brief seconds and paid for in the time that remains Picture Quote #1

There’s always a third choice in life. Even if you think you’re stuck between two impossible choices, there’s always a third way. You just have to look for it Picture Quote #1

The hardest choices in life aren’t between what’s right and what’s wrong but between what’s right and what’s best Picture Quote #1

The identity of an individual is essentially a function of her choices, rather than the discovery of an immutable attribute Picture Quote #1

The heart makes its choices without weighing the consequences. It doesn’t look ahead to the lonely nights that follow Picture Quote #1

Politics is a matter of choices, and a man doesn’t set up the choices himself. And there is always a price to make a choice. You know that. You’ve made a choice, and you know how much it cost you. There is always a price Picture Quote #1

If we are defined by reason and morality, then reason and morality must define our choices, even when animals are concerned. When people say, for example, that they like their veal or hot dogs too much to ever give them up, and yeah it’s sad about the farms but that’s just the way it is, reason hears in that the voice of gluttony. We can say that what makes a human being human is precisely the ability to understand that the suffering of an animal is more important than the taste of a treat Picture Quote #1

It was possible, he understood, for a person’s life to become just a long series of mistakes, and that the end, when it came, was just one more mistake in a chain of bad choices. The thing was, most of these mistakes were actually borrowed from other people. You took their bad ideas, and for whatever reason, made them your own Picture Quote #1

There is nothing like scrubbing toilets for a living to make you question the choices you have made in life Picture Quote #1

The choices we make within the boundaries of the twists of fate determines who we are Picture Quote #1

We might not know we are seeking people who best enrich our lives, but somehow on a deep subconscious level we absolutely are. Whether the bond is temporary or permanent, whether it succeeds or fails, fate is simply a configuration of choices that combine with others to shape the relationships that surround us. We cannot choose our family, but we can choose our friends, and we sometimes, before we even meet them Picture Quote #1

I was trying to find a reason for having had to escape from the place that was my home. To convince myself of my choices, I had to make it a place that everyone should want to escape from Picture Quote #1

A nation that does not read much does not know much. And a nation that does not know much is more likely to make poor choices in the home, the marketplace, the jury box, and the voting booth. And those decisions ultimately affect the entire nation... the literate and illiterate Picture Quote #1

Fate is just another word for people’s choices coming to a head. Destiny, coincidence, whatever you name it. It inevitably lies in our hands Picture Quote #1

What makes a man a man? A friend of mine once wondered. Is it his origins? The way he comes to life? I don’t think so. It’s the choices he makes. Not how he starts things, but how he decides to end them Picture Quote #1

No matter what choice you make, it doesn’t define you. Not forever. People can make bad choices and change their minds and hearts and do good things later; just as people can make good choices and then turn around and walk a bad path. No choice we make lasts our whole life. If there’s ever a choice you’ve made that you no longer agree with, you can make another choice Picture Quote #1

There are some choices you can only make once. You can’t go back to where you made a choice and then take the other one Picture Quote #1

This was the way the night had cashed in. Choices had been made and things happened, and here we were. It was sad, and funny. My life was made of this. Stuff like this Picture Quote #1

Choices. We all make them, sometimes more than once. Sometimes it’s the choices we make over and over that define us, but more often it’s the choices we don’t make Picture Quote #1

Anything worth doing, is worth doing all the way. Just know you’ll have to live with all the choices that you make Picture Quote #1
