As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal there will be those who will delight to offer affront to your idol (Little Quotes)
I felt a pang - a strange and inexplicable pang that I had never felt before. It was homesickness. Now, even more than I had earlier when I'd first glimpsed it, I longed to be transported into that quiet little landscape, to walk up the path, to take a key from my pocket and open the cottage door, to sit down by the fireplace, to wrap my arms around myself, and to stay there forever and ever (Little Quotes)
And this man, who during three long decades had not once remembered that the world contains lilac bushes - and pansies, sandy garden paths, little carts with containers of fizzy water - this man gave a deep sigh, convinced now that life had gone on in his absence, that life had continued (Little Quotes)
After Bill got his shot, a little color crept into his face and he would become almost coy. It was a gruesome sight. I remember once he told me how he'd been propositioned by a queer who offered him twenty dollars. Bill declined, saying "I don't think you would be very well satisfied. "Bill twitched his fleshless hips. "You should see me in the nude," he said. "I'm really cute." (Little Quotes)
There may be people who like centipedes... Personally, I would regard such an individual with deep suspicion. I have just petted my cat: "And how is this good little cat beast?" Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on his underbelly? "And here is my good big centipede!" If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race (Little Quotes)
Here we were, father and I, shut up in a plain little room, and for the first time in my life having something that might pass for a conversation. We were talking to one another almost like adults; almost like one human being to another; almost like father and daughter. And even though I couldn't think of anything to say, I felt myself wanting it to go on and on until the last star blinked out (Little Quotes)
Promoting self under the guise of promoting Christ is currently so common as to excite little notice (Little Quotes)
The man is "saved," but he is not hungry nor thirsty after God. In fact he is specifically taught to be satisfied and encouraged to be content with little (Little Quotes)
Why are we never quite at ease in the presence of a schoolmaster? Because we are conscious that he is not quite at his ease in ours. He is awkward, and out of place in the society of his equals. He comes like Gulliver from among his little people, and he cannot fit the stature of his understanding to yours (Little Quotes)
So near are the boundaries of panegyric and invective, that a worn-out sinner is sometimes found to make the best declaimer against sin. The same high-seasoned descriptions which in his unregenerate state served to inflame his appetites, in his new province of a moralist will serve him (a little turned) to expose the enormity of those appetites in other men (Little Quotes)
When I consider how little of a rarity children are - that every street and blind alley swarms with them - that the poorest people commonly have them in most abundance - that there are few marriages that are not blest with at least one of these bargains - how often they turn out ill, and defeat the fond hopes of their parents, taking to vicious courses, which end in poverty, disgrace, the gallows, etc. - I cannot for my life tell what cause for pride there can possibly be in having them (Little Quotes)
I could never convince the financiers that Disneyland was feasible, because dreams offer too little collateral (Little Quotes)
The labor of self-love is a heavy one indeed. Think for yourself whether much of your sorrow has not arisen from someone speaking slightingly of you. As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal there will be those who will delight to offer affront to your idol. How then can you hope to have inward peace? (Little Quotes)
He [the schoolmaster] is awkward, and out of place, in the society of his equals. He comes like Gulliver from among his little people, and he cannot fit the stature of his understanding to yours (Little Quotes)
I started, actually, to make my first animated cartoon in 1920. Of course, they were very crude things then and I used sort of little puppet things (Little Quotes)
So he is putting down junk and coming on with tea. I take three drags, Jane looked at him and her flesh crystallized. I leaped up screaming "I got the fear!" and ran out of the house. Drank a beer in a little restaurant - mosaic bar and soccer scores and bullfight posters - and waited for the bus to town. A year later in Tangier I heard she was dead (Little Quotes)
A man can never have too much Time to himself, nor too little to do. Had I a little son, I would christen him Nothing-To-Do; he should do nothing. Man, I verily believe, is out of his element as long as he is operative. I am altogether for the life contemplative (Little Quotes)
A paranoid is someone who knows a little of what's going on. A psychotic is a guy who's just found out what's going on (Little Quotes)
But it takes so little to help people, and people really do help each other, even people with very little themselves. And it's not just about second chances. Most people deserve an endless number of chances (Little Quotes)
Of all, we have made the Word of Truth conform to our experience and accepted this low plane as the very pasture of the blessed. It will require a determined heart and more than a little courage to wrench ourselves loose from the grip of our times and return to Biblical ways. But it can be done. Every now and then in the past Christians have had to do it. History has recorded several large-scale returns led by such men as St. Francis, Martin Luther and George Fox. Unfortunately there (Little Quotes)
I think there are innumerable gods. What we on Earth call God is a little tribal God who has made an awful mess. Certainly forces operating through human consciousness control events (Little Quotes)
When you wanna do something and that little impulse goes off in your brain and says "Ooh, don't do it!", you gotta go for it. That's how you're gonna be the person you wanna be (Little Quotes)
Life depends on what she thinks of as ‘big bursts' and ‘little bursts. ' Big bursts are things like marriage or children, intimacies that keep you afloat, but these big bursts hold dangerous, unseen currents. Which is why you need the little bursts as well: a friendly clerk at Bradlee's, let's say, or the waitress at Dunkin' Donuts who knows how you like your coffee (Little Quotes)
You have to create a form from the life that exists, not the other way around. If it comes out in these little pieces, that's what it is (Little Quotes)
Freedom is not an abstraction, nor is a little of it enough. A little more is not enough either. Having less, being less, impoverished in freedom and rights, women then invariably have less self-respect: less self-respect than any human being needs to live a brave and honest life (Little Quotes)
God made us for Himself: that is the only explanation that satisfies the heart of a thinking man, whatever his wild reason may say. Should faulty education and perverse reasoning lead a man to conclude otherwise, there is little that any Christian can do for him (Little Quotes)
It's been the same story ever since I can remember, ever since Wilson – the Republicans don't do a thing for the little man (Little Quotes)
Just remember: I love you, and love yourselves. 'cause, little monsters, you were born that way baby (Little Quotes)
For all my love little monsters I am your mom you are my child in my hand I protect you like my eyes but don't worry ill cacth you if you fall (Little Quotes)
And there was, in those Ipswich years, for me at least, a raw educational component; though I used to score well in academic tests, I seemed to know very little of how the world worked and was truly grateful for instruction, whether it was how to stroke a backhand, mix a martini, use a wallpaper steamer, or do the Twist. My wife, too, seemed willing to learn. Old as we must have looked to our children, we were still taking lessons, in how to be grown-up (Little Quotes)
