Pretend Quotes

Neither a person entirely broken nor one entirely whole can speak. In sorrow, pretend to be fearless. In happiness, tremble Picture Quote #1

Up until that moment, I’d been at the earliest stage of love, when you feel it will turn you into the better person you want to be. Now, his gentle voice and sage advice took me to a later stage: I felt I needed to pretend to be a better person than I was so he’d keep loving me. This was hard because it made me hate him Picture Quote #1

When you aren’t sincere you need to pretend, and by pretending you end up believing yourself; that’s the basic principle of every faith Picture Quote #1

She knows too well what it’s like to tamp down your natural inclinations, to force a smile when you feel numb... The expression of emotion does not come naturally, so yo learn to fake it. To pretend. To display an empathy you don’t really feel. And so it is that you learn to pass, if you’re lucky, to look like everyone else, even though you’re broken inside Picture Quote #1

At least if I keep my love a secret, he and I can still have this wonderful, odd, exciting relationship where I love him in silence and pretend he’s loving me in silence too Picture Quote #1

When you meet women, don’t pretend to be anything that you’re not Picture Quote #1

Men have had the vanity to pretend that the whole creation was made for them, while in reality the whole creation does not suspect their existence Picture Quote #1

You have to pretend you’re 100 percent sure. You have to take action; you can’t hesitate or hedge your bets. Anything less will condemn your efforts to failure Picture Quote #1

Vision, I say, is related to light itself. But of this sensation and the things pertaining to it, I pretend to understand but little; and since even a long time would not suffice to explain that trifle, or even to hint at an explanation, I pass over this in silence Picture Quote #1

People pretend not to like grapes when the vines are too high for them to reach Picture Quote #1

Even if you’re unhappy, just pretend that you’re happy. Eventually, your smile will be contagious to yourself. I had to learn that, I used to think, I’m being fake, but you know what? Better to be fake and happy than real and miserable Picture Quote #1

I think we’re really good about pushing each other in practice and we have high tempo and I feel like we have some of the best players in the world so just competing against one another and getting in there and pushing each other around and getting ready for that physical style of game coming up, we have to play hard and pretend it’s a game Picture Quote #1

The best reason to paint is that there is no reason to paint... I’d like to pretend that I’ve never seen anything, never read anything, never heard anything... and then make something... Every time I make something I think about the people who are going to see it and every time I see something, I think about the person who made it... Nothing is important... so everything is important Picture Quote #1

Add a drop of lavender to milk, leave town with an orange, and pretend you’re laughing at it Picture Quote #1

You can be 24 and continue to live like you’re at college, or even continue to live like you’re in high school. Or you can put on a shirt and tie and pretend to be an adult Picture Quote #1

People always tend to chose what is best for them. They pretend to be unselfish, all so that they can feel good about themselves. Even that really is a selfish decision Picture Quote #1

The tougher the times, the more clarity you gain about the difference between what really matters and what you only pretend to care about Picture Quote #1

Humanity cannot afford to acknowledge all of the blood that it spills and the destruction it inflicts on the world in its effort to perpetuate itself. Desacralization is a process that allows us to sever any relationship we might feel to other living things. By draining the aliveness out of things, we can pretend that our control and manipulation are of little consequence. Man the trapper becomes man the taxidermist, disemboweling nature of its spontaneity and movement, and stuffing it with a leaden inanimateness Picture Quote #1

Marshall’s crime is to pretend to handle imperfect competition with tools only applicable to perfect competition Picture Quote #1

People pretend things didn’t happen. Or so what, they happened, it’s okay. Well, it’s never okay. It’s always ruined Picture Quote #1

I wanted the world to sit back, listen up, and let me explain to it that when someone is sad and hopeless, the last thing they need to feel is that they are the only ones in the world with that feeling. So, if you feel sorry for someone, don’t pretend to be happy. Don’t pretend to care only about their problems Picture Quote #1

The point of acting is to pretend you’re someone else and sell a story Picture Quote #1

Yes. The way people behave, the paradoxes, the contradictions. All these things we have to live with and still pretend that everything is only black or white. That, I think, is the most interesting thing in human nature. The fact that we have to do one thing and pretend something else. That’s when it becomes very interesting. If you can literally speak the way you feel, then it’s not interesting anymore. It’s when you have to lie that it becomes interesting Picture Quote #1

I have no rules. For me, it’s a full, full experience to make a movie. It takes a lot of time, and I want there to be a lot of stuff in it. You’re looking for every shot in the movie to have resonance and want it to be something you can see a second time, and then I’d like it to be something you can see 10 years later, and it becomes a different movie, because you’re a different person. So that means I want it to be deep, not in a pretentious way, but I guess I can say I am pretentious in that I pretend. I have aspirations that the movie should trigger off a lot of complex responses Picture Quote #1

Just one more word. If I ever run into any of you bums on the street corner, just let’s pretend we never met before Picture Quote #1

The thing about taking risks is, if it’s really a risk, you really can fail. It’s only a pretend risk if you really can’t fail Picture Quote #1

Plenty of clever children have to pretend to be not clever or else they get bullied by the thick Picture Quote #1

It’s fun to pretend you’re a little kid, you get to use your imagination and live in a world that’s not real Picture Quote #1

It’s so dangerous to idealize anything, or anyone, or any place, because it gives that thing or person or place a kind of permission to not have to change, and not have to evolve. It encourages us to bury our heads in the sand, or in values that are really morally neutral but that we pretend are moral goods: tradition, community and family for example Picture Quote #1
