Text Quotes
Sound is ephemeral, fleeting, but some sort of a physical manifestation can help you hold on to it longer in time. I’m sure of this; I’ve always thought the sound that you make is just the tip of the iceberg, like the person that you see physically is just the tip of the iceberg as well  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) I am a romantic, in a literary way, by which I mean the Romantic poets, who thought just because a sensation is fleeting doesn’t mean it isn’t valuable. If the only criterion of value is whether something lasts, then the whole of human life is a waste of time  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) I think about my mother every day. But usually the thoughts are fleeting - she crosses my mind like a spring cardinal that flies past the edge of your eye: startling, luminous, lovely... gone  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) Music moves me - duh - and that is like having a window opening on a heightened reality, but the effect is fleeting: When the music ends, the magic, the uplifting, vanishes and the window slams shut. Words, on the other hand, by the nature of how they work, emotions evoked by dint of carefully laid out thoughts, have a more lingering effect  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) Everything we do is for the purpose of altering consciousness.

We read for the pleasure of thinking another person’s thoughts.  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) The thoughts of othersWere light and fleeting,Of lovers’ meetingOr luck or fame.Mine were of trouble,And mine were steady;So I was readyWhen trouble came.  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes) Love is like that, fragile and light. No wonder it rests upon our hearts in intangible moments, bids us follow fleeting thoughts and ideas and pursue our abstract imaginings  (Fleeting Thoughts Quotes)
