The same wall that keeps out your disappointment also keeps out the sunlight of enriching experiences. So let life touch you. The next touch could be the one that turns your life around (Disappointment Quotes)
When you are gentled and quieted in your heart, you are incapable of relating to disappointment, incapable of feeling sorry for your self (Disappointment Quotes)
There’s a way that the force of disappointment can be alchemized into something that will paradoxically renew you (Disappointment Quotes)
A widely held, but rarely articulated, belief in our society is that the ideal self is bold, alpha, gregarious. Introversion is viewed somewhere between disappointment and pathology (Disappointment Quotes)
America is a great disappointment to me. As I said in one of my books, other societies create civilisations; we build shopping malls (Disappointment Quotes)
A fool forgetting all the ideals and joys I knew before, in my recent years of drinking and disappointment, what does he care if he hasn’t got any money: he doesn’t need any money, all he needs is his rucksack with those little plastic bags of dried food and a good pair of shoes and off he goes and enjoys the privileges of a millionaire in surroundings like this (Disappointment Quotes)
It will be as if I’d never existed, he’d promised me. I felt the smooth wooden floor beneath my knees, and then the palms of my hands, and then it was pressed against the skin of my cheek. I hoped that I was fainting, but, to my disappointment, I didn’t lose consciousness. The waves of pain that had only lapped at me before now reared high up and washed over my head, pulling me under. I did not resurface (Disappointment Quotes)
To have faith requires courage, the ability to take a risk, the readiness even to accept pain and disappointment. Whoever insists on safety and security as primary conditions of life cannot have faith; whoever shuts himself off in a system of defense, where distance and possession are his means of security, makes himself a prisoner. To be loved, and to love, need courage, the courage to judge certain values as of ultimate concern – and to take the jump and to stake everything on these values (Disappointment Quotes)
Letting there be room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. When there’s a big disappointment, we don’t know if that’s the end of the story. It may just be the beginning of a great adventure. Life is like that. We don’t know anything. We call something bad; we call it good. But really we just don’t know (Disappointment Quotes)
I finally made friends with my father when I entered my twenties. We had so little in common when I was a boy, and I am certain I had been a disappointment to him. He did not ask for a child with a book, off in its own world. He wanted a son who did what he had done; swam and boxed and played rugby, and drove cars at speed with abandon and joy, but that was not what he wound up with (Disappointment Quotes)
You really didn’t see the sadness or the longing unless you already knew it was there. But that was the trick, wasn’t it? Everyone had their disappointment and their baggage; only, some people carried it in their inside pockets and not on their backs (Disappointment Quotes)
That praises are without reason lavished on the dead, and that the honours due only to are paid to antiquity, is a complaint likely to be always continued by those who, being able to add nothing to truth, hope for eminence from the heresies of paradox; or those who, being forced by disappointment upon consolatory expedients, are willing to hope from posterity what the present age refuses, and flatter themselves that the regard which is yet denied by envy will be at last bestowed by time (Disappointment Quotes)
Disappointment is a good sign of basic intelligence. It cannot be compared to anything else: it is so sharp, precise, obvious, and direct. If we can open, then we suddenly begin to see that our expectations are irrelevant compared with the reality of the situations we are facing (Disappointment Quotes)
As teachers and coaches, we must remember that when mere winning is our only goal, we are doomed to disappointment and failure. But when our goal is to try to win, when our focus is on preparation and sacrifice and effort instead of on numbers on a scoreboard then we will never lose (Disappointment Quotes)
It’s a disappointment to lose key players. On the other hand it creates an opportunity to play other players (Disappointment Quotes)
There’s a disappointment there because I still feel there’s an emptiness in my career that just wasn’t filled (Disappointment Quotes)
Parents are sometimes a bit of a disappointment to their children. They don’t fulfill the promise of their early years (Disappointment Quotes)
My failure, during the first five or six years of my art training, to get set in the right direction, and the disappointment which it caused me, drove me the more persistently into writing as an alternative (Disappointment Quotes)
We may avoid much disappointment and bitterness of soul by learning to understand how little necessary to our joy and peace are the things the multitude most desire and seek (Disappointment Quotes)
The reason why women effect so little and are so shallow is because their aims are low, marriage is the prize for which they strive; if foiled in that they rarely rise above disappointment (Disappointment Quotes)
What I want is to draw inspiration only from the truth... My qualifications for this important role include a large head, an enormous nose, disappointment in love, and expectations of ill health (Disappointment Quotes)
Disappointment to a noble soul is what cold water is to burning metal; it strengthens, tempers, intensifies, but never destroys it (Disappointment Quotes)
Aspirations after the holy, the only aspiration in which the human soul can be assured that it will never meet with disappointment (Disappointment Quotes)
Women suffer more from disappointment than men, because they have more of faith and are naturally more credulous (Disappointment Quotes)
But there were worse things than disappointment, and I’d lived through several of them already (Disappointment Quotes)
Sex is every man’s loco spot... he’ll take a disappointment, but not a humiliation (Disappointment Quotes)
We are setting ourselves up for disappointment if our hope is built on anything less than Jesus (Disappointment Quotes)
