Imagines Quotes

She had the loaded handbag of someone who camps out and seldom goes home, or who imagines life must be full of emergencies Picture Quote #1

When you mention to people growing up in Cleveland they bring up the river catching on fire, or LeBron James leaving, they have these references, but no one imagines ending up there Picture Quote #1

A sloth once whispered in my ear and told me that when he is clinging to branches he closes his eyes and imagines that he’s still a baby holding on to his mama Picture Quote #1

A man imagines a happy marriage as a marriage of love; even if he makes fun of marriages that are without love, or feels sorry for lovers who are without marriage Picture Quote #1

Nobody is more dangerous than he who imagines himself pure in heart; for his purity, by definition, is unassailable Picture Quote #1

The journalist researches a story. The novelist imagines it. What’s funny is, you’d be amazed at the amount of time a novelist has to spend with people in order to create this single lonely voice. This seemingly isolated world. It’s hard to call any of my novels fiction Picture Quote #1

Roses just now predominate. There is a satisfying solidity about the bunches, a glorious abundance which, in a commodity so easily enjoyed without ownership, is scarcely credible. I feel no desire to own these huge aggregations of odorous beauty. It would be like owning a harem, one imagines Picture Quote #1

Younger women are willing to go out with high status males. If you look at the kind of women Salman Rushdie attracts, they tend to be intelligent, arty types. For her, it’s a kudos thing. The man just wants a good-looking girl because he imagines that when his friends see him, they’ll all think, ‘Gosh I wish I was him.’ Picture Quote #1

In justice to myself I ought to say that my true appearance is somewhat more attractive than this, but unfortunately I can appear to man only as he imagines me to be Picture Quote #1

And Grandmother Hall really imagines that she can raise Eleanor and her two brothers differently than these children were raised. And if she is very strict and everything is very regimented and ordered and disciplined, that they will become the perfect children who her own children did not become Picture Quote #1

... Whoever imagines a woman after this model, which consists in saying little things in big words, will see a pretty girl adorned with mirrors and chains Picture Quote #1

No cause more frequently produces bashfulness than too high an opinion of our own importance. He that imagines an assembly filled with his merit, panting with expectation, and hushed with attention, easily terrifies himself with the dread of disappointing them, and strains his imagination in pursuit of something that may vindicate the veracity of fame, and show that his reputation was not gained by chance Picture Quote #1

No one imagines that a symphony is supposed to improve as it goes along, or that the whole object of playing is to reach the finale. The point of music is discovered in every moment of playing and listening to it. It is the same, I feel, with the greater part of our lives, and if we are unduly absorbed in improving them we may forget altogether to live them Picture Quote #1

She lights a match in the dark hall and moves it onto the wick of the candle. Light lifts itself onto her shoulders. She is on her knees. She puts her hands on her thighs and breathes in the smell of the sulphur. She imagines she slap breathes in light Picture Quote #1

Man’s rise or fall, success or failure, happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude ... a man’s attitude will create the situation he imagines Picture Quote #1

It is an awesome thing to comprehend that what a human being dreams and imagines can be realized Picture Quote #1

No man tells his opinion so freely as when he imagines it received with implicit veneration Picture Quote #1

Interests evolve into hobbies or volunteer work, which grow into passions. It takes time, more time than anyone imagines Picture Quote #1

A man with his heart in his profession imagines and finds resources where the worthless and lazy despair Picture Quote #1

All a writer’s characters are imaginary, no matter whether they are based on real people or not. They are people as one imagines them to be Picture Quote #1

There are things that a woman sings, and only a woman knows the full meaning. You may sing for men as well as for women, but only a woman knows your full meaning. I am not a feminista. I only think a woman should be true to who she believes herself to be. Or who she wants herself to be. Or who she imagines herself to be. I don’t know what I mean, or whether I’m true myself to any of that. I don’t think there are many of us who are true to our possibilities Picture Quote #1

The military mind always imagines that the next war will be on the same lines as the last. That has never been the case and never will be. One of the great factors on the next war will be aircraft obviously. The potentialities of aircraft attack on a large scale are almost incalculable Picture Quote #1

Man’s rise or fall, success or failure, happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude... a man’s attitude will create the situation he imagines Picture Quote #1

Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes Picture Quote #1

When a man imagines, even after years of striving, that he has attained perfection, his decline begins Picture Quote #1

My being subsists only from a supreme point of view which is precisely incompatible with my point of view. The perspective in which I fade away for my eyes restores me as a complete image for the unreal eye to which I deny all images. A complete image with reference to a world devoid of image which imagines me in the absence of any imaginable figure. The being of a nonbeing of which I am the infinitely small negation which it instigates as its profound harmony. In the night shall I become the universe? Picture Quote #1

Nobody even imagines how well one can lie about the state of one’s own heart Picture Quote #1

Specialists without spirit, sensualists without heart; this nullity imagines that it has attained a level of civilization never before achieved Picture Quote #1

The image of the world around us, which we carry in our head, is just a model. Nobody in his head imagines all the world, government or country. He has only selected concepts, and relationships between them, and uses those to represent the real system Picture Quote #1

I’ve lived so little that I tend to imagine I’m not going to die; it seems improbable that human existence can be reduced to so little; one imagines, in spite of oneself, that sooner or later something is bound to happen. A big mistake. A life can just as well be both empty and short. The days slip by indifferently, leaving neither trace nor memory; and then all of a sudden they stop Picture Quote #1
