Text Quotes
I’m sentimental about many things: the lumpy feel of a baby’s unused feet, the metallic smell of the air before the first snow, the last scene in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life.’ But Valentine’s Day leaves me cold.  (Sentimental Quotes) Identification with the rag called the national flag is an emotional and sentimental factor and for that factor you are willing to kill another - and that is called, the love of your country, love of the neighbor . . .? One can see that where sentiment and emotion come in, love is not.  (Sentimental Quotes) The meaning of life is creative love. Not love as an inner feeling, as a private sentimental emotion, but love as a dynamic power moving out in the world and doing something original.  (Sentimental Quotes) The working classes in England were always sentimental, and the Irish and Scots and Welsh. The upper-class English are the stiff-upper-lipped ones. And the middle class. They’re the ones who are crippled emotionally because they can’t move up, and they’re desperate not to move down.  (Sentimental Quotes) I’m not sentimental--I’m as romantic as you are. The idea, you know,is that the sentimental person thinks things will last--the romanticperson has a desperate confidence that they won’t.  (Sentimental Quotes) No past to make us sentimental, no future to embarrass us...a difficult moment when you are out of practice - a moment that makes you go cold, cold and wary.  (Sentimental Quotes) In its sentimental mode, compassion is an exercise in moral indignation, in feeling good rather than doing good ... In its unsentimental mode, compassion seeks above all to do good ...  (Sentimental Quotes) A neglect of one’s sentimental education early in life could bear the most unfortunate fruit  (Sentimental Quotes) I am a bit difficult to be around sometimes. I can be stubborn on a lot of things, and I’m set, but I can also adapt in a conflict situation and don’t hold on to an ego. I end up seeing the larger good and adapt to it, provided it benefits me. I may come across as a cold person, but I am extremely sentimental.  (Sentimental Quotes) I feel I should try to reveal. When you hit it right, you produce an emotional response in the listener that can be cathartic. When you’re wrong, you’re soppy, sentimental.  (Sentimental Quotes) I don’t really ask myself too much where the ideas come from. When things touch you or anger you, you are moved to want to examine them, to reflect on them. But yes, I guess you could say [‘Amour’] is a memento mori, though it would never occur to me to use that term, since it might sound a little bit sentimental.  (Sentimental Quotes) Your deceit smells like a fake mustache. Nobody stole my facial hair. I shaved this morning and donated half of it to the Humane Society. The other half I kept for sentimental petting reasons.  (Sentimental Quotes) I think the philosophy that you have to have if you travel frequently is, stuff is just stuff. Even if it has some sentimental or family connection, if you lose it in the world, it’s still just a thing, and I think if you don’t have that attitude, you will get incredibly stressed out and not enjoy your travels.  (Sentimental Quotes) Even my aunt Joan, hopelessly sentimental about every member of our family, admitted that I was hideous.  (Sentimental Quotes) I would hate to think I’m promoting sadness as an aesthetic. But I grew up in not just a family but a town and a culture where sadness is something you’re taught to feel shame about. You end up chronically desiring what can be a very sentimental idea of love and connection. A lot of my work has been about trying to make a space for sadness.  (Sentimental Quotes) I keep two sentimental mementos on my desk to remind me of two favorite men. There is an inkwell that my Uncle Seymour made, a brass grotesque he mounted on a marble base. And my grandfather’s shaving cup is there, used to store pencils and pens.  (Sentimental Quotes) The love of God is no mere sentimental feeling; it is redemptive power!  (Sentimental Quotes) We’re a sentimental people. We like a few kind words better than millions of dollars given in a humiliating way.  (Sentimental Quotes) I think that in some cases, I’ve made films that have a sentimental quality, at least as part of the film.  (Sentimental Quotes) Someone with a fresh mind, one not conditioned by upbringing and environment, would doubtless look at science and the powerful reductionism that it inspires as overwhelmingly the better mode of understanding the world, and would doubtless scorn religion as sentimental wishful thinking.  (Sentimental Quotes) Americans are the nicest, most generous, and sentimental people on earth. Yet Americans have killed more unborn children than any nation in history.  (Sentimental Quotes) The German people are an orderly, vain, deeply sentimental and rather insensitive people. They seem to feel at their best when they are singing in chorus, saluting or obeying orders.  (Sentimental Quotes) I’m pretty good at surprising friends and family with gifts. I tend to go towards the more sentimental side of giving.  (Sentimental Quotes) Rejoicing in ordinary things is not sentimental or trite. It actually takes guts. Each time we drop our complaints and allow everyday good fortune to inspire us, we enter the warrior’s world.  (Sentimental Quotes) Good writing must stay open to the questions and not fall prey to the pull of a polemic, otherwise, words simply become predictable, sentimental, and stale.  (Sentimental Quotes) Traditional graffiti writers have a bunch of rules they like to stick to, and good luck to them, but I didn’t become a graffiti artist so I could have somebody else tell me what to do. If you’re the type who gets sentimental about people scribbling over your stuff, I suggest graffiti is probably not the right hobby for you.  (Sentimental Quotes) Sometimes, people end up thankful for what they mourned. You cannot achieve this state by seeking tragedy, but you can keep yourself open more to sorrow’s richness than to unmediated despair. Tragedies with happy endings may be sentimental tripe, or they may be the true meaning of love.  (Sentimental Quotes) I was a teacher most of my life, which I loved. I had a very happy working life, and when I retired, I thought I must do something, and I’ve always read a lot of fiction - you learn so much from fiction. My sentimental education came mostly from fiction, I should say, so I thought I’d try.  (Sentimental Quotes)
