Text Quotes
With my quick success, I didn’t have time to learn the ropes of the music business. Because my first record was such a hit, I was terribly spoiled and I thought I couldn’t do anything wrong. I was also desperate to make tons of money because of my responsibility to my daughter. And there was no longer any joy in making music  (Desperate Quotes) What happens when you let go, when your strength leaves you and you sink into darkness, when there’s nothing that you or anyone else can do, no matter how desperate you are, no matter how you try? Perhaps it’s then, when you have neither pride nor power, that you are saved, brought to an unimaginably great reward  (Desperate Quotes) I came to see that what constitutes strength is not just a muscle or will. It can also include the most desperate vulnerability, the saddest heartache, the lightest, sweetest laughter  (Desperate Quotes) Jumping through any hoop or taking advantage of any desperate situation that comes up just to sell a product is harmful. It is  (Desperate Quotes) Strolling on the plateau of life, desperate for the mountain, I never thought that I would get this far. It’s only art that has carried me through, given me faith in my own existence. But now I am approaching a point in my life where I desire more  (Desperate Quotes) When you are a beginning film maker you are desperate to survive. The most important thing in the end is survival and being able to get to your next picture  (Desperate Quotes) Fact is, the desperate desire to be cool has skewed our culture toward nihilism, carelessness, and ineptitude. It is now cool to be an idiot. A jackass. It’s cool to be a failure, as long as your failure is the basis for a reality show  (Desperate Quotes) A misspelled word is probably an alias for some desperate call for aid, which is bound to fail  (Desperate Quotes) The people that live in my hometown do not walk along the street with smiles on their faces. It is a desperate place, but I got out  (Desperate Quotes) Every day is a little life, and our whole life is but a day repeated. Therefore live every day as if it would be the last. Those that dare lose a day, are dangerously prodigal; those that dare misspend it are desperate  (Desperate Quotes) A nation that turns away from prayer will ultimately find itself in desperate need of it  (Desperate Quotes) I used to believe that love and happiness were synonymous. I was a fool. Love intensifies all emotions. Nothing is so painful o so sweet, so thrilling or so desperate... Pleasure is, after all, a luxury. It’s love thats essential. You are never so alive as when you love, never so alert, intuitive, attentive, never so smart or so compassionate  (Desperate Quotes) Creators understand that their emotions are not necessarily a sign of the circumstances. They understand that in desperate circumstances they may experience joy, and in jubilant circumstances they may feel regret. They know that any emotion will change. But because emotions are not the centerpiece of their lives, they do not pander to them. They create what they create, not in reaction to their emotions but independent of them. On days filled with the depths of despair, they can create. On days filled with the heights of joy, they can create  (Desperate Quotes) Staring us in the face is the desperate plight of the poor. We don’t need statistics to tell us that. They are flesh and blood people like ourselves, often out of work, forced out of rented premises, without money and without food  (Desperate Quotes) Amazingly, we take for granted that instinct for survival, fear of death, must separate us from the happiness of pure and uninterpreted experience, in which body, mind, and nature are the same. This retreat from wonder, the backing away like lobsters into safe crannies, the desperate instinct that our life passes unlived, is reflected in proliferation without joy, corrosive money rot, the gross befouling of the earth and air and water from which we came  (Desperate Quotes) There are patterns because we try to find them. A desperate attempt at order because we can’t face the terror that it might all be random  (Desperate Quotes) I yearn to live and love and burn, and yet so much of my time is spent faking and forgetting, faking and forgetting I carry out my disbelief with uninspired hands, my eyes shut, my emotions dulled, my spirit numb. In times like these I am in desperate need of truth to come to me like a blinding light, like a splinter in my soul, reminding me of the brevity of my time here on earth  (Desperate Quotes) It might pay to be resilient, if this was all being vulnerable and skinless got you. People didn’t stop and cluck over damage done unless you made it worth their while. Indeed, maybe it was time to rethink this whole salvation business. Or maybe I was less desperate, less teetering on the edge than I cared to admit. Now, that was a refreshing possibility  (Desperate Quotes) The long path from material through function to creative work has only one goal: to create order out of the desperate confusion of our time  (Desperate Quotes) We are all, in the private kingdom of our hearts, desperate for the company of a wise, true friend. Someone who isn’t embarrassed by our emotions, or her own, who recognizes that life is short and all that we have to offer, in the end, is love  (Desperate Quotes) I will go through a lot of pain to beat someone. If there’s pride and ego on the line, if I’m desperate, then I’m willing to go to a place where it hurts a lot more  (Desperate Quotes) The saints differ from us in their exuberance, the excess of our human talents. Moderation is not their secret. It is in the wildness of their dreams, the desperate vitality of their ambitions, that they stand apart from ordinary people of good will  (Desperate Quotes) The secret to happiness is to be working at your passion. If you want to be miserable, lead a desperate life like everybody else where they drag their asses to work everyday because they hate their job  (Desperate Quotes) I’m doing my bit for the women’s movement. The women have always been naked in movies, and now I’m just desperate to take my clothes off as much as possible  (Desperate Quotes) I think mortality makes you live a fuller existence. When I was a kid I was scared of death, and maybe that’s what made me desperate to get the most out of life  (Desperate Quotes) I’d be smiling if I wasn’t so desperate. I’d be patient if I had the time  (Desperate Quotes) Suicide is a desperate attempt to get out of what seems to be an intolerable situation. It appears to be a way of escape from the pain of living  (Desperate Quotes) Each one of us can do a good deed, every day and everywhere. In hospitals in desperate need of volunteers, in homes for the elderly where our parents and grandparents are longing for a smile, a listening ear, in the street, in our workplaces and especially at home  (Desperate Quotes) We are reviled but we do not intend to speak evil in return. We are in desperate straits but do not despair. We are persecuted but not forsaken. It’s easy to humiliate and crush people who are open, but when I am weak, then I am strong  (Desperate Quotes) There is a desperate tendency to try to legislate artists, to try to lay down rules for their obligations to society. Just leave artists alone. If you are a true artist, you will have a very finely tuned moral mechanism  (Desperate Quotes)
