It is a curious thing... That every creed promises a paradise which will be absolutely uninhabitable for anyone of civilized taste  (It Is Quotes) Now if there is one thing that we do worse than any other nation, it is try and manage somebody else's affairs  (It Is Quotes) One knows one's madness, by and large.

The notion of naming the beast to conquer it is the idiot optimism of psychotherapy  (It Is Quotes) The human mind is inspired enough when it comes to inventing horrors; it is when it tries to invent a Heaven that it shows itself cloddish  (It Is Quotes) The truth is that Oxford is simply a very beautiful city in which it is convenient to segregate a certain number of the young of the nation while they are growing up  (It Is Quotes) Temptation's less about wearing someone down with repetition than it is about finding the right phrase and dropping it in at the right time  (It Is Quotes) The only thing that it is advisable to know in any language is the numerals; and even there, you can do a lot with the fingers  (It Is Quotes) This country has gotten where it is in spite of politics, not by the aid of it. That we have carried as much political bunk as we have and still survived shows we are a super nation  (It Is Quotes) It is easy, retrospectively, to endow one's youth with a false precocity or a false innocence; to tamper with the dates marking one's stature on the edge of the door  (It Is Quotes) I was not a child prodigy, because a child prodigy is a child who knows as much when it is a child as it does when it grows up  (It Is Quotes) Each letter has a shape, she told them, one shape in the world and no other, and it is your responsibility to make it perfect  (It Is Quotes) It is not poverty so much as pretense that harasses a ruined man - the struggle between a proud mind and an empty purse - the keeping up of a hollow show that must soon come to an end  (It Is Quotes) I was just thinking, if it is really religion with these nudist colonies, they sure must turn atheists in the wintertime  (It Is Quotes) Every Englishman abroad, until it is proved to the contrary, likes to consider himself a traveller and not a tourist  (It Is Quotes) Believe in something for another world, but don't be too set on what it is, and then you won't start out that life with a disappointment  (It Is Quotes) It is but seldom that any one overt act produces hostilities between two nations; there exists, more commonly, a previous jealousy and ill will, a predisposition to take offense  (It Is Quotes) It is interesting to notice how some minds seem almost to create themselves, springing up under every disadvantage, and working their solitary but irresistible way through a thousand obstacles  (It Is Quotes) Even when you make a tax form out on the level, you do not know when it is through if you are a crook or a martyr  (It Is Quotes) Pain is such an uncomfortable feeling that even a tiny amount of it is enough to ruin every enjoyment  (It Is Quotes) How easy it is for one benevolent being to diffuse pleasure around him; and how truly is a kind heart a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity to freshen into smiles!  (It Is Quotes) A debt is just as hard for a government to pay as it is for an individual. No debt ever comes due at a good time. Borrowing is the only thing that seems handy all the time  (It Is Quotes) Life is whole only when it isn't subordinate to a specific object that exceeds it. In this way, the essence of entirety is freedom  (It Is Quotes) It is the positive practice of freedom, not the negative struggle against particular oppression, that has lifted me above a mutilated existence  (It Is Quotes) It is almost startling to hear this warning of departed time sounding among the tombs, and telling the lapse of the hour, which, like a billow, has rolled us onward towards the grave  (It Is Quotes) She didn't give a damn about some of them, but she had grown to learn that inattention can be a stratagem to avoid pain, and that it is often misread as shallowness and indifference  (It Is Quotes) It is character that communicates most eloquently... In the last analysis, what we are communicates far more eloquently than anything we say or do  (It Is Quotes) That which we obtain too easily, we esteem too lightly. It is dearness only which gives everything its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price on its goods  (It Is Quotes) When I look back on my life nowadays, which I sometimes do, what strikes me most forcibly about it is that what seemed at the time most significant and seductive, seems now most futile and absurd  (It Is Quotes) … It is not healing to see your childhood home, but it helps you measure whether you are broken, and how and why, assuming you want to know  (It Is Quotes) It is clear that the world is purely parodic, that each thing seen is the parody of another, or is the same thing in a deceptive form  (It Is Quotes)
