Text Quotes
From a distance it might look straight, but when you get close up, you can always see the line waver. And I think that’s where the beauty is  (Distance Quotes) Individuality is different than isolation. Isolation is trying to do everything on your own, living life by yourself. Isolation happens when you choose not to be involved in any communities, making sure you keep a safe distance from people in your life. I’m not recommending isolation. Science, psychology, and religion all suggest long term isolation is dangerous and unhealthy  (Distance Quotes) I’ve found in the past that the more closely I identify with the heroine, the less completely she emerges as a person. So from the first novel I’ve been learning techniques to distance myself from the characters so that they are not me and I don’t try to protect them in ways that aren’t good for the story  (Distance Quotes) There are some people who become best friends with everyone they photograph. There are people that I really like and admire and respect, but in a way I think it’s better to keep a distance. I think you get better pictures of people that you don’t know very well  (Distance Quotes) Interstate highways dull the reality of place and distance almost as effectively as jetliners do: I loathe their scary monotony  (Distance Quotes) I don’t see my movies. I think it’s healthier and safer to keep a bit of distance. I’m afraid to be disappointed  (Distance Quotes) I guess I am basically most comfortable when I’m alone. As a kid, I was very much a loner. I love long distance running and long distance biking. A director once pointed out that those are all very isolated exercises you do for hours at a time  (Distance Quotes) I do have some books, but in all the distance flights I’ve made I’ve never opened the books. I’ve been too busy  (Distance Quotes) Love doesn’t think twice, it comes all at once, or whispers from a distance  (Distance Quotes) All I had done for five years was work 18 hours a day all over the world. I needed to step back and distance myself from it  (Distance Quotes) With the case of running, it really is a case of get out, set yourself a distance, run it, and then do it again the next day. It’s tremendously simple  (Distance Quotes) English people are famous for never speaking out but only saying what they really feel about you behind your back. Americans believe the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. I like exploring those, er, differences in national snippiness  (Distance Quotes) When I walk down the runway, my main goal is to not think about the people watching. The idea of all eyes on me would make me too uncomfortable. As I step on the runway, I take a deep breath, focus on a point in the distance, and go!  (Distance Quotes) As I stepped to the stage to pick up my degree, and the locusts sang off in the distance  (Distance Quotes) Love can be used to drain people. Through eye contact people send a cord out to drain you long distance. Through sexual manipulation, anyone who can make you like them can drain you  (Distance Quotes) Sometimes in life, we have to go backward a certain distance in order to go forwards. If we have conflicts within ourselves that we have not resolved, then we will find ourselves living inside of these conflicts, not in the realms of light  (Distance Quotes) Each of us has a very rich nature and can look at things objectively, from a distance, and at the same time can have something more personal to say about them. I am trying to look at the world, and at myself, from many different points of view. I think many poets have this duality  (Distance Quotes) Even if you can’t just snap your fingers and make a dream come true, you can travel in the direction of your dream, every single day and you can shorten the distance between the two of you  (Distance Quotes) How flat all sounds are at the seaside, flat and yet emphatic, like the sound of gunshots heard at a distance  (Distance Quotes) And just as music is the space between notes, just as the stars are beautiful because of the space between them, just as the sun strikes raindrops at a certain angle and throws a prism of color across the sky-so the space where I exist, and want to keep existing, and to be quite frank I hope I die in, is exactly this middle distance: where despair struck pure otherness and created something sublime  (Distance Quotes) In a contagious world,we learn to keep our distance. If we get too close to those who are suffering, we might get infected by their pain. It may not be convenient or comfortable. But only when you get close enough to catch their hurt will they be close enough to catch your love  (Distance Quotes) It’s important to cultivate detachment. One way to do this is to practice imagining yourself dead, or in the process of dying. If there’s a window, you must imagine your body falling out of that window. If there’s a knife, you must imagine the knife piercing your skin. If there’s a train coming, you must imagine your torso flattened under its wheels. These excercises are necessary to achieving the proper distance  (Distance Quotes) The eyes sparked a lot of things for me, it could be somebody remembering something they had witnessed or heard about, or it could be the person in the photograph that was experiencing a tragedy or it could also be the spectator looking on from a safe distance  (Distance Quotes) While guns rumbled in the distance, we sang, painted, made collages and wrote poems with all our might. We were seeking an art based on fundamentals, to cure the madness of the age, and find a new order of things that would restore the balance between heaven and hell  (Distance Quotes) There are three aspects to perspective. The first has to do with how the size of objects seems to diminish according to distance: the second, the manner in which colors change the farther away they are from the eye; the third defines how objects ought to be finished less carefully the farther away they are  (Distance Quotes) Those who travel heedlessly from place to place, observing only their distance from each other, and attending only to their accommodation at the inn at night, set out fools, and will certainly return so  (Distance Quotes) Images have been reproached for being a way of watching suffering at a distance, as if there were some other way of watching  (Distance Quotes) I am constantly preoccupied with how to remove distance so that we can all come closer together, so that we can all begin to sense we are the same, we are one  (Distance Quotes) There is something about music that keeps its distance even at the moment that it engulfs us. It is at the same time outside and away from us and inside and part of us. In one sense it dwarfs us, and in another we master it. We are led on and on, and yet in some strange way we never lose control  (Distance Quotes) The senses alone are not implicitly to be depended on. We must correct their evidence by reason, and by considerations, derived from the nature of the medium, the distance of the object, and the disposition of the organ, in order to render them, within their sphere, the proper criteria of truth and falsehood  (Distance Quotes)
