My Life Quotes

I would never be part of anything. I would never really belong anywhere, and I knew it, and all my life would be the same, trying to belong, and failing. Always something would go wrong. I am a stranger and I always will be, and after all I didn’t really care Picture Quote #1

Smarter than me. But here’s the thing my life did get better. I made a decision to let go of my dreams, because they were killing me, and I stopped asking the impossible of myself. I changed my attitude and decided to focus on what I had rather than what I didn’t have Picture Quote #1

I know what to do with my life. I just don’t know what to do with this one night Picture Quote #1

Writing isn’t just a job that stops at six thirty... It’s a mad, sexy, sad, scary, ruthless, joyful, and utterly, utterly personal thing. There’s not the writer and then me; there’s just me. All of my life connects to the writing. All of it Picture Quote #1

Problem solving, and I don’t mean algebra, seems to be my life’s work. Maybe it’s everyone’s life’s work Picture Quote #1

As I examine my life through this book, I can’t help but wonder if my mother was right. Maybe I really was what I ate. And maybe if she’d let me eat a little more sugar, I’d have come out sweeter Picture Quote #1

Everything comes down to this: the reason for every word I have written and every word I will write. I am recounting my life for you so that you may know this secret without the pain of discovering it: We are unhappy because we think that love is something we require from someone else. Our salvation depends on a simple gesture that is nonetheless the most difficult act we can perform: We must give away the thing we most long for. Not to receive but to give Picture Quote #1

If I wasn’t an actress I’d want to be a writer or else find a job where I got to read books and watch movies all day, everyday, for the rest of my life Picture Quote #1

Women lose their lives not knowing they can do something different... I claimed myself and remade my life. Only when I knew I belonged to myself completely did I become capable of giving myself to another, of finding joy in desire, pleasure in our love, power in this body no one else owns Picture Quote #1

Then I went home to continue my life, which had changed a little, as lives do every day, inching by microspecks forward toward whatever surprises are coming next Picture Quote #1

Nothing in my life has ever made me want to commit suicide more than people’s reaction to my trying to commit suicide Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know how much I could love until you were gone. Until your laughter no longer filled my home, your wicked high jinks no longer made me crazy. Until I stood in that damned club and knew, without you by side, my life was as empty as my bed was without you in it. I didn’t know what love was, until I saw my refusal to admit it drown all the sweet innocence in your eyes. I love you Picture Quote #1

Nobody in my life has ever known me the way you do. Nobody in my life has ever made me feel as good as you do. You know me, you know everything about me, and when you leave me, you’re going to be leaving the real me, the me nobody else has ever seen, that’s who you’re going to be rejecting Picture Quote #1

They don’t matter. I thought I had to prove something, and I did, to myself. There’s nothing left for me to prove. I can move on with my life Picture Quote #1

Everything in my life that I value has been gained at the cost of not saying what I really think and saying what they want me to say Picture Quote #1

Let me have my tax money go for my protection and not for my prosecution. Let my tax money go for the protection of me. Protect my home, protect my streets, protect my car, protect my life, protect my property... worry about becoming a human being and not about how you can prevent others from enjoying their lives because of your own inability to adjust to life Picture Quote #1

I’m sure the red fern has grown and has completely covered the two little mounds. I know it is still there, hiding its secret beneath those long, red leaves, but it wouldn’t be hidden from me for part of my life is buried there, too. Yes, I know it is still there, for in my heart I believe the legend of the sacred red fern Picture Quote #1

There have been plenty of chances to close my eyes and go back to the sleep of my life as it was, but I hadn’t taken any of them. Do I wish now that I had? It’s hard to answer that question, as the wraiths move closer Picture Quote #1

My heart is empty and my life has no value anymore. Each moment a thousand tears Picture Quote #1

Lets face it, you did steal me. But you saved my life too. And somewhere in the middle, you showed me a place so different and beautiful, I can never get it out of my mind. And I can’t get you out of there either. You’re stuck in my brain like my own blood vessels Picture Quote #1

The mountains are so beautiful they make me ache inside because the moment I look away I know I shall need to see them again. And I cannot spend the rest of my life standing on the spot starting at shifting sunlight and mist and shadows across the sea Picture Quote #1

If, in our world, there is any chance of becoming the person you haven’t yet become... will I know how to seize that chance, turn my life into a garden that will be completely different from my forebears’? Picture Quote #1

I’ve had too many experiences in my life of being the first woman in some damned occupation Picture Quote #1

What is this called, what I am doing, to myself, to my life, this wallowing, this pondering, this rolling over and over in the same places of my memory, wearing them thin, wearing them out? Why don’t I ever learn? Why don’t I ever do anything different? Picture Quote #1

This, then, is my choice: I can allow the events of my life to happen to me. Or I can take those very same actions and make them my own. I can live in my own present, risk failure, be assured of failure Picture Quote #1

And yet, I felt a surge of exhilaration just thinking about that night. Not just because I’d met the prince and fallen in love and started on my course toward happiness ever after, but because I’d made something happen. I’d done something everybody had told me I couldn’t. I’d changed my life all by myself. Having a fairy godmother would have ruined everything Picture Quote #1

Meditation needs no results. Meditation can have itself as an end, I meditate without words and on nothingness. What tangles my life is writing Picture Quote #1

I felt that I was really living in the moment. I did not know where my life was going, but right now the future did not trouble me Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent most of my life trying to think my way to happiness, and my failure to achieve that goal only proves, in my mind, that I am not a good enough thinker. It never occurred to me that the source of my unhappiness is not flawed thinking but thinking itself Picture Quote #1

I live for coincidences. They briefly give to me the illusion or the hope that there’s a pattern to my life, and if there’s a pattern, then maybe I’m moving toward some kind of destiny where it’s all explained Picture Quote #1
