Escape Quotes

The important thing to realize is that while we may not escape our own basic pattern, we can work in harmony with it. That is where free will comes in. Once having chosen, a man has to accept the consequences of his choice, and go on from there Picture Quote #1

You feel the call. That’s the important thing. Now answer it as fully as you can. Take the risk to let all that is in you, out. Escape into the open Picture Quote #1

Books allow you to be whoever you want to be, to escape yourself for a while Picture Quote #1

The mind can be a crazy monkey that is always dying to escape from the moment Picture Quote #1

We can be consicous of how we tend to ignore or escape anguish rather than understand and accept it. We can be aware that even when we gain insight into these things, we rarely behave differently in the future. Despite our overt resolve, we are still creatures of habit Picture Quote #1

I know I have within myself... a side of solitude. I think people who know me can see, but people who just meet me can’t because I’m generally very fun and gregarious. I love to spend a lot of time on my own. I can seriously go into my own head and often love to let myself travel where I don’t know where I’m going. I always felt that that was his kind of form of escape, in a way Picture Quote #1

I don’t drink because I have problems or I want to escape. I just love drinking and being drunk Picture Quote #1

I just want people to come to my stuff and escape and see me as a character, not as anything else Picture Quote #1

The imagination is not an escape, but a return to the richness of our true selves; a return to reality Picture Quote #1

The moment of writing is not an escape... it is only an insistence, through the imagination, upon human ecstasy, and a reminder that such ecstasy remains as much a birthright in this world as misery remains a condition of it Picture Quote #1

And if I really can see the future, then what does it mean? Is there any sense in our lives if everything is already out there, just waiting to happen? For if that were so, then life would be a horrible monster indeed, with no chance of escape from fate, from destiny. It would be like reading a book, but reading it backwards, from the final chapter down to chapter one, so that the end is already known to you Picture Quote #1

There is, in every event, whether lived or told, always a hole or a gap, often more than one. If we allow ourselves to get caught in it, we find it opening onto a void that, once we have slipped into it, we can never escape Picture Quote #1

Humans cannot reject temptation. When they are plunged into the depths of despair, likened to hell, they will hold on to anything that may help them escape from the situation they are in, even if it’s merely a spider’s thread, no matter what sort of humans they are Picture Quote #1

Baseball is my escape. The sights, the sounds, the way the park smells. There is truly no place I would rather be than at a game Picture Quote #1

Bad things will happen and good things too. Your life will be full of surprises. Miracles happen only where there has been suffering. So taste your grief to the fullest. Don’t try and press it down. Don’t hide from it. Don’t escape. It is life too. It is truth. But it will pass and time will put a strange honey in the bitterness. That’s the way life goes Picture Quote #1

A book should either allow us to escape existence or teach us how to endure it Picture Quote #1

A massage is just like a movie, really relaxing and a total escape, except in a massage you’re the star. And you don’t miss anything by falling asleep! Picture Quote #1

When the desire is too much to bear, we often bury it beneath frenzied thoughts and activities or escape it by dulling our immediate consciousness of living. It is possible to run away from the desire for years, even decades, at a time, but we cannot eradicate it entirely. It keeps touching us in little glimpses and hints in our dreams, our hopes, our unguarded moments Picture Quote #1

Gauntlets are the stuff of every life, but when you learn young how to pick them up, how to work them against the demons, and finally how to outlast if not escape those same demons, life can seem more merciful. It’s that long, smooth, false swanning through life that seems to drive a person, sooner or later, into the wall Picture Quote #1

There is always that dream of escape, but there is no place to escape to, you just run into yourself Picture Quote #1

Dreams, ideas, and plans not only are an escape, they give me purpose, a reason to hang on Picture Quote #1

There are only two things that are absolute realities, love and knowledge, and you can’t escape them Picture Quote #1

She clutched the train ticket tighter and waited for the sense of escape to come over her as it had a dozen times before, that heady sensation of having just scooted through the clanging gate, of eluding the thrown net. It didn’t come. She was running again, but she wasn’t escaping. She’d been chased to ground a long, long time ago Picture Quote #1

I come alive, in front of the mirror, skipping and dancing and acting the fool. Dance is both escape and excitement Picture Quote #1

Christianity’s goal is not escape from this world. It loves this world and seeks to change it for the better Picture Quote #1

At first glance, the rhythm may be confused with gaiety, but when you look more closely at the mechanism of social life and the painful slavery of both men and machines, you see that it is nothing but a kind of typical, empty anguish that makes even crime and gangs forgivable means of escape Picture Quote #1

How can the intensity of this shame be understood by those who have never experienced it? How can they understand the strength of the motivations produced by the desire to escape from it? Picture Quote #1

Art is not escape, but a way of finding order in chaos, a way of confronting life Picture Quote #1

All the seven deadly sins are self destroying, morbid appetites, but in their early stages at least, lust and gluttony, averice and sloth know some gratification, while anger and pride have power, even though that power eventually destroys itself. Envy is impotent, numbed with fear, never ceasing in its appetite, and it knows no gratification, but endless self torment. It has the ugliness of a trapped rat, which gnaws its own foot in an effort to escape Picture Quote #1
