Faces Quotes

It’s time to float on the waters of the night. Time to wrap my arms around this book and press it to my chest, life preserver in a seat of unremarkable men and women anonymous faces on the street, a hundred thousand unalphabitized things a million forgotten hours Picture Quote #1

My teacher said once that every man faces seven enemies in his lifetime. Sickness, hunger, betrayal, envy, greed, old age, and then death Picture Quote #1

All lovers in the world are alike: they fall in love by chance; they see each other, and are attached to each other by the features of their faces; they illuminate each other by the fierce preference which is akin to madness; they assert the reality of illusions; and for a moment they change falsehood into truth Picture Quote #1

I was so happy every morning when I woke up that I was pissing smiley faces Picture Quote #1

People carry their secrets in hidden places, not on their faces. They carry suffering on their faces. Also bitterness if there’s room Picture Quote #1

Four billion people on this earth, but my imagination is still the same. It’s bad with large numbers. It’s still taken by particularity. It flits in the dark like a flashlight, illuminating only random faces while all the rest go blindly by, never coming to mind and never really missed... I can’t tell you how much I pass over in silence Picture Quote #1

Lucas should’ve run out of there that instant. Instead he stared at me through the glass and slowly unfolded his hand opposite mine so that our hands were pressed againts the pane of glass, fingers to fingers, palm to palm. We each move closer, so that our faces were only inches apart. Even with the stained glass, window between us, it felt as intimate as any kiss we’d shared Picture Quote #1

If I didn’t have writing, I’d be running down the street hurling grenades in people’s faces Picture Quote #1

Albert and I would spend hours and hours looking at them. Cleo had this big magnifying glass on his desk, and we’d find centipedes and grasshoppers and beetles and potato bugs, ants... and put them in a jar and look at them. They have the sweetest little faces and the cutest expressions. After we’d looked at them all we wanted to, we’d put them in the yard and let them go on about their business Picture Quote #1

Photographers tend not to photograph what they can’t see, which is the very reason one should try to attempt it. Otherwise we’re going to go on forever just photographing more faces and more rooms and more places. Photography has to transcend description. It has to go beyond description to bring insight into the subject, or reveal the subject, not as it looks, but how does it feel? Picture Quote #1

I wish, peevishly, that he didn’t know anything about how soldiers sleep, how they protect their fellow soldiers. It would be nicer if I could share the cloaks warmth with him, if we could lie with our faces together, whispering into the night Picture Quote #1

For all the books in his possession, he still failed to read the stories written plain as day in the faces of the people around him Picture Quote #1

Some people have things written all over their faces; the big guy had a couple of words misspelled in crayon on his Picture Quote #1

In his face there came to be a brooding peace that is seen most often in the faces of the very sorrowful or the very wise. But still he wandered through the streets of the town, always silent and alone Picture Quote #1

I liked the solitude and the silence of the woods and the hills. I felt there the sense of a presence, something undefined and mysterious, which was reflected in the faces of the flowers and the movements of birds and animals, in the sunlight falling through the leaves and in the sound of running water, in the wind blowing on the hills and the wide expanse of earth and sky Picture Quote #1

All of us show many faces to the world. No one shows her true face all of the time. To do that would be dangerous, for what is seen can also be known Picture Quote #1

A clown needn’t be the same out of the ring as he has to be when he’s in it. If you look at photographs of clowns when they’re just being ordinary men, they’ve got quite sad faces Picture Quote #1

What’s the good of these great fragile fits of enthusiasm, these jaded jumps of joys? We know nothing anymore, but the dead stars; we gaze at their faces; and we gasp with pleasure. Our mouths are dry as the lost beaches, and our eyes turn aimlessly and without hope. Now all that remain are these cafés where we meet to drink these cool drinks, these diluted spirits, and the tables are stickier than the pavements where our shadows of the day before have fallen Picture Quote #1

A day dawns, quite like other days; in it, a single hour comes, quite like other hours; but in that day and in that hour the chance of a lifetime faces us Picture Quote #1

The problem facing a comprehender is analogous to the problem that a detective faces when trying to solve a crime. In both cases there is a set of clues Picture Quote #1

Every great work of art has two faces, one towards its own time and one towards future, towards eternity Picture Quote #1

I chose faces and figures as my subject matter simply due to the fact that the human form is already beautiful art Picture Quote #1

A man practices the art of adventure when he heroically faces up to life. When he has the daring to open doors to new experiences. When he is unafraid of new ideas, new theories and new philosophies. When he has the curiosity to experiment. When he breaks the chain of routine Picture Quote #1

Somebody must take a chance. There are monkeys who became men, and the monkeys who didn’t are still jumping around in trees making faces at the monkeys who did Picture Quote #1

You grow. You don’t want to stay the same. The thing that was great for you before isn’t going to be great for you now. A woman should have many faces through her life, not just one face, not just one hairdo, not just one way. You want to keep rediscovering what’s fun for you Picture Quote #1

May I ask your name, my lady? Or perhaps angels have no names, only beautiful faces Picture Quote #1

It is even harder to realize that this present universe has evolved from an unspeakably unfamiliar early condition, and faces a future extinction of endless cold or intolerable heat. The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it seems pointless Picture Quote #1

The portion we see of human beings is very small: their formats and faces, voices and words... beyond these, like an immense dark continent, lies all that has made them Picture Quote #1

You have to be extreme to be exceptional. I couldn’t revel in being number one. I had to get to zero. When my fitness was at its peak, I was intimidating. I made guys cave in. They’d be dejected in the locker room after matches, and I’d go out for a run, as if it wasn’t enough. I’d rub it in their faces. I meant to do that Picture Quote #1

I hate to lose more than I like to win. I hate to see the happiness on their faces when they beat me! Picture Quote #1
