Even If Quotes

Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don’t want it. What appears bad manners, an ill temper or cynicism is always a sign of things no ears have heard, no eyes have seen. You do not know what wars are going on down there where the spirit meets the bone Picture Quote #1

Even if you lie to me... that’s okay. I’ll be satisfied with as much of yourself as you can give me Picture Quote #1

We dance even if there’s no radio. we drink at funerals. we talk too much and laugh too loud and live too large, and, frankly, we’re suspicious of others who don’t Picture Quote #1

Every so often I take out a volume and read a page or two. After all, reading is looking after in a manner of speaking. Though they’re not old enough to be valuable for their age alone, nor important enough to be sought after by collectors, my charges are dear to me, even if, as often as not, they are as dull on the inside as on the outside. No matter how banal the contents, there is always something that touches me. For someone now dead once thought these words significant enough to write them down Picture Quote #1

You can’t deny they ever happened. You can’t deny you ever loved them, love them still, even if loving them causes you pain Picture Quote #1

I like the rain before it falls. of course there is no such thing, she said. That’s why it’s my favorite. Something can still make you happy, can’t it, even if it isn’t real Picture Quote #1

Even if you forget everything else I want you to always remember that you are a person of value, and you have a friend who loved you enough to give you his most valued possession Picture Quote #1

These short stories are vast structures existing mostly in the subconscious of our cultural history. They will live with the reader long after the words have been translated into ideas and dreams. That’s because a good short story crosses the borders of our nations and our prejudices and our beliefs. A good short story asks a question that can’t be answered in simple terms. And even if we come up with some understanding, years later, while glancing out of a window, the story still has the potential to return, to alter right there in our mind and change everything Picture Quote #1

When you can carry five full dinner platters on your left arm, you should be able to vote, even if you’re not eighteen Picture Quote #1

The truth was only another mask, even if it was the best fit, the closest to skin and all that lay beneath Picture Quote #1

I’m partly somebody else trying to fit in and say the right things and do the right thing and be in the right place and wear what everybody else is wearing. Sometimes I think we’re all trying to be shadows of each other, trying to buy the same records and everything even if we don’t like them. Kids are like robots, off an assembly line, and I don’t want to be a robot! Picture Quote #1

You can’t wait around for destiny to give you what you think you deserve, you have to earn it, even if you think you’ve paid your dues Picture Quote #1

I love books. If they are good books, I love them even more. But even if they are bad books, I still love them Picture Quote #1

Even if it seems certain that you will lose, retaliate. Neither wisdom nor technique has a place in this. A real man does not think of victory or defeat. He plunges recklessly towards an irrational death. By doing this, you will awaken from your dreams Picture Quote #1

And when someone else speaks your name you feel pleased. You feel wanted. You feel there. Alive. Even if they’re saying your name with dislike, at least you know you’re you, that you exist Picture Quote #1

Exercise the writing muscle every day, even if it is only a letter, notes, a title list, a character sketch, a journal entry. Writers are like dancers, like athletes. Without that exercise, the muscles seize up Picture Quote #1

Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow Picture Quote #1

When people first discover beauty, they tend to linger. Even if they don’t at first recognize it for what it is Picture Quote #1

I smiled back and I thought how incredible that was, that they would find the time to smile. There was goodness in the world still, even if you couldn’t always see it Picture Quote #1

Who do you suppose decided that the birds are free? Even if they can fly the skies unless they have a destination and a branch upon which to perch and rest their wings they might even come to resent having those wings. True freedom... true freedom may be having somewhere to return to Picture Quote #1

It is really hard to be lonely very long in a world of words. Even if you don’t have friends somewhere, you still have language, and it will find you and wrap its little syllables around you and suddenly there will be a story to live in Picture Quote #1

I know it makes sense for me and him to just break up now and just live our seperate lives and not have to worry about missing each other all the time. But when I think about that, I get sick. Physically sick. Like I seriously throw up. I need to be with him, even if I can’t, like, be with him Picture Quote #1

I didn’t tell Ôtani I love him because I want to make out with him. I just love him, that’s all. And I want to be with him all the time, even if we’re just goofing around and hanging out like we always are Picture Quote #1

People didn’t make life, so they can’t destroy it. Even if we were to wipe out every bit of life in the world, we can’t touch the place life comes from. Whatever made the plants and animals and people spring up in the first place will always be there, and life will spring up again Picture Quote #1

A person has to be strong in life. A person must practice strength, even if they don’t feel it Picture Quote #1
