Rather Be Quotes

I would rather be rich affluent and greedy and go to hell when I die, than live in poverty on this earth Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be at the end of a dying tradition, which I admire, than at the beginning of a tradition which I deplore Picture Quote #1

I can’t go on anymore bad dates. I would rather be home alone than out with some guy who sells socks on the internet Picture Quote #1

Know for a certainty that if men understood how terrible is even one solitary sin, they would rather be cast into a heated furnace, and there remain, living both in soul and body, than to support such a sight. And if the sea were all fire they would cast themselves therein and never leave it, if they were certain of meeting the sin on doing so Picture Quote #1

You have to know yourself and know what you can carry. If you’re not comfortable, no matter how well dressed you are, you’re not going to look right. I’d rather be happy and feel comfy Picture Quote #1

Being a geek is a great thing. I think we’re all geeks. Being a geek means you’re passionate about something and that defines your uniqueness. I would rather be passionate about something than be apathetic about everything Picture Quote #1

I have a journalism degree, but I’d rather be the person who is being written about rather than the person who is writing Picture Quote #1

I was of the type who gets bullied rather than the one who does the bullying, which I’m glad about. I’d rather be that than a bully Picture Quote #1

We would rather be anywhere, as long as we are somewhere. We would rather be anyone, as long as we are someone Picture Quote #1

I don’t want... to run away by myself... because no matter what... I’d rather be together with everyone Picture Quote #1

Baseball is my escape. The sights, the sounds, the way the park smells. There is truly no place I would rather be than at a game Picture Quote #1

The real risk is notchanging. I have to feel that I’m after something. If I make money, fine. ButI’d rather be striving. It’s the striving, man, it’s that I want Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be proud of what I am, rather than desperatly try to be something I’m really not; just to fit in Picture Quote #1

I would hate to think I am not an amature. An amateur is one who loves what he is doing. Very often, I’m afraid, the professional hates what he is doing. So, I’d rather be an amateur Picture Quote #1

Sometimes stereotyping happens not because of any nefarious reasons but rather because people don’t know who you are or where you come from, so they go for the broad strokes about you, your culture, your faith, all that Picture Quote #1

One thing that worried me was how writers get categorized and so they end up having to write the same kind of book again and again. That is fine if it is what you want to do, but I would rather be locked in the trunk of my car with a weasel than write the same book every three years until I die Picture Quote #1

Many people would rather be certain of their worries and fears, than risk the uncertainty of hope and optimism Picture Quote #1

Men and women who are lonely create. Those who are gregarious rarely do... Any poet would rather bed with a girl than write a poem about her. All art is the result of frustration. Art is energy deflected from its normal course in action Picture Quote #1

Boredom or discontent is useful to me when I acknowledge it and see clearly my assumption that there’s something else I would rather be doing. In this way boredom can act as an invitation to freedom by opening me to new options and thoughts. For example, if I can’t change the activity, can I look at it more honestly? Picture Quote #1

As for me, I’ve chosen to follow a simple course: Come clean. And wherever possible, live your life in a way that won’t leave you tempted to lie. Failing that, I’d rather be disliked for who I truly am than loved for who I am not. So, I tell my story. I write it down. I even publish it. Sometimes this is a humbling experience. Sometimes it’s embarrassing. But I haul around no terrible secrets Picture Quote #1

Any officer can get by on his sergeants. To be a sergeant you have to know your stuff. I’d rather be an outstanding sergeant than just another officer Picture Quote #1

If you want to change attitudes, start with a change in behavior. In other words, begin to act the part, as well as you can, of the person you would rather be, the person you most want to become. Gradually, the old, fearful person will fade away Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be called a boy and play with paper airplanes than be called a man and play with a girl’s heart Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be a boy playing with a paper plane, than to be a grown man playing with a woman’s heart Picture Quote #1

Literature is what you write when you think you should be saying something. Writing begins when you’d rather be doing anything else: and you’ve just done it Picture Quote #1

Ideas do have consequences in history, yet not because those ideas are inherently truthful or obviously correct but rather because of the way they are embedded in very powerful institutions, networks, interests, and symbols Picture Quote #1

And I keep on fighting for the things I want. Though I know that when you’re dead you can’t. But I’d rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave Picture Quote #1
