Drowning Quotes

We are swimming on the face of time and all else has drowned, is drowning, or will drown Picture Quote #1

A drowning man cannot be saved until he is utterly exhausted and ceases to make the slightest effort to save himself Picture Quote #1

What a culture we live in, we are swimming in an ocean of information, and drowning in ignorance Picture Quote #1

When someone is drowning and you try to save them, they’re more likely to drown you before you pull them out Picture Quote #1

You can’t keep a cool head when you’re drowning in love. You just trash around a lot and scream, and wear yourself out Picture Quote #1

Did it ever strike you on such a morning as this that drowning would be happiness and peace? Picture Quote #1

Anxiety is love’s greatest killer, because it is like the stranglehold of the drowning Picture Quote #1

One never dives into the water to save a drowning man more eagerly than when there are others present who dare not take the risk Picture Quote #1

What else is there to make life tolerable? We stand on the shore of an ocean, crying to the night and to emptiness. Sometimes a voice of one drowning, and in a moment the silence returns. The world seems to me quite dreadful, the unhappiness of many people is very great, and I often wonder how they all endure it. It is usually the central thing around which their lives are built, and I suppose if they did not live most of their lives in the things of the moment, they would not be able to go on Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to see anyone. I lie in the bedroom with the curtains drawn and nothingness washing over me like a sluggish wave. Whatever is happening to me is my own fault. I have done something wrong, something so huge I can’t even see it, something that’s drowning me. I am inadequate and stupid, without worth. I might as well be dead Picture Quote #1

Have you ever had one of those moments when time just freezes? You know, when the world suddenly goes deathly still, and you could hear a pin drop, and the squishing sound your heart makes is so loud in your ears you feel like you’re drowning in blood, and you stand there in that suspended moment and die a thousand deaths, but not really, and the moment passes and dumps you out on the other side of it, with your mouth hanging open, and an erased blackboard where your mind used to be? Picture Quote #1

I remember a story I once heard about drowning: that when you fall into cold water it’s not that you drown right away but that the cold disorients you and makes you think that down is up and up is down, so you may be swimming, swimming, swimming for your life in the wrong direction, all the way toward the bottom until you sink. That’s how I feel, as though everything has been turned around Picture Quote #1

It felt like everything was rising up in me, like I was drowning in this weirdly painful joy, but I couldn’t say it back. I just looked at him and let him look at me until he nodded, lips pursed and turned away, placing the side of his head against the window Picture Quote #1

I’m attracted to the idea of drowning. Or rather the idea of jumping off and being enveloped by something, not bad or good, just enveloping. When I was a kid, I had a moment when I got under the water, lying on the pool floor, and felt I could breathe. I’ve been trying to recreate that feeling ever since Picture Quote #1

Whenever I visit a market and see the chickens crowded together in tiny cages that give them no room to move around and spread their wings and the fish slowly drowning in the air, my heart goes out to them. People have to learn to think about animals in a different way, as sentient beings who love life and fear death. I urge everyone who can to adopt a compassionate vegetarian diet Picture Quote #1
