Text Quotes
When my parents were liberated, four years before I was born, they found that the ordinary world outside the camp had been eradicated. There was no more simple meal, no thing was less than extraordinary: a fork, a mattress, a clean shirt, a book. Not to mention such things that can make one weep: an orange, meat and vegetables, hot water. There was no ordinariness to return to, no refuge from the blinding potency of things, an apple screaming its sweet juice  (Simple Quotes) 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  (Simple Quotes) It’s as simple as this. When people don’t unload their opinions and feel like they’ve been listened to, they won’t really get on board  (Simple Quotes) If my work has a theme, I suspect it is a simple one: that most human beings are inescapably alone, and therein lies their tragedy  (Simple Quotes) He’d assumed that you went to school because you had to learn things, starting off with the easy stuff and moving on to the bigger issues, and once you’d learned them that was it, the way ahead opened up and thereafter life was simple and straightforward. What a joke. The older he got, the more complicated and obscure everything became  (Simple Quotes) Depression is not sobbing and crying and giving vent, it is plain and simple reduction of feeling  (Simple Quotes) We give all we have, lives, property, safety, skill... we fight, we die, for a simple thing. Only that a man can stand up  (Simple Quotes) .. and certain that life consisted of a few simple signals and decisions; that death took root at the moment of birth and man’s only recourse thereafter was to water and tend it; that propagation was a fiction; consequently, society was a fiction too; that fathers and teachers, by virtue of being fathers and teachers, were guilty of a grievous sin  (Simple Quotes) There is a tonic strength, in the hour of sorrow and affliction, in escaping from the world and society and getting back to the simple duties and interests we have slighted and forgotten. Our world grows smaller, but it grows dearer and greater. Simple things have a new charm for us, and we suddenly realize that we have been renouncing all that is greatest and best, in our pursuit of some phantom  (Simple Quotes) We had pathetically simple dreams: to do meaningful work that we could be proud of, to be together, and to be happy  (Simple Quotes) The law is simple. Every experience is repeated or suffered till you experience it properly and fully the first time  (Simple Quotes) Leaders of the world, my message to you is simple: to achieve universal peace and understanding on this planet you have only to speak plainly, even though you may look foolish. This is a thousand times better than looking good and talking nonsense  (Simple Quotes) Norah watched him, serious and utterly absorbed in his task, overcome by the simple fact of his existence  (Simple Quotes) Dying is so simple. A fleeting moment of suffering. In the blink of an eye you are over the threshold, into another world. No more pain, no more fears. You sleep so well there. Dying is like rubbing snow together, setting fire to a whole winter of cold and ice  (Simple Quotes) Friendship is a simple thing, and yet complicated; friendship is on the surface, something natural, something taken for granted, and yet underneath one could find worlds  (Simple Quotes) The patterns are simple, but followed together, they make for a whole that is wiser than the sum of its parts. Go for a walk; cultivate hunches; write everything down, but keep your folders messy; embrace serendipity; make generative mistakes; take on multiple hobbies; frequent coffeehouses and other liquid networks; follow the links; let others build on your ideas; borrow, recycle; reinvent. Build a tangled bank  (Simple Quotes) It could all be so simple, but you’d rather make it hard, lovin you is like a battle, and we both end up with scars, tell me who I have to be, to get some reciprocity  (Simple Quotes) One of the odd things about middle age, he concluded, was the strange decisions a man discovers he’s made by not really making them, like allowing friends to drift away through simple neglect  (Simple Quotes) Now I’m told this is life, and pain’s just a simple compromise  (Simple Quotes) If our brains were simple enough for us to understand them, we’d be so simple that we couldn’t  (Simple Quotes) She refused to accept the simple truism that the better you were, the bigger threat you were to those at the top  (Simple Quotes) The truth isn’t so simple. Death may be inevitable, but love is not. Love, you have to choose  (Simple Quotes) I’ve decided I’m going to live this life for some time to come. The freedom and simple beauty is just too good to pass up  (Simple Quotes) In biology, nothing is clear, everything is too complicated, everything is a mess, and just when you think you understand something, you peel off a layer and find deeper complications beneath. Nature is anything but simple  (Simple Quotes) We don’t go to the ocean for anything as simple as happiness, do we? We go there to feel alive. Like life, the ocean holds chance and change, grief and terror and beauty. It promises mortality, not peace  (Simple Quotes) Although I get a lot of specialty services like wraps, scrubs, and mustache removal, my favorite is the simple manicure/pedicure. They work on your hands and feet at the same time while you sit in a vibrating chair. I call it the sorority girls version of a threesome  (Simple Quotes) Now I’m told that this is life, that pain is just a simple comprimise so we can get what we want out of it. Would someone care to classify a broken heart and some twisted minds so I can find someone to rely on?  (Simple Quotes) I knew that the deepest of tragedies was simple: to love, and not to be loved in return  (Simple Quotes) I think sometimes that people are like onions. On the outside smooth and whole and simple but inside ring upon ring, complex and deep  (Simple Quotes) Why do we marry, why take friends and lovers? Why give ourselves to music, painting, chemistry or cooking? Out of simple delight in the resident goodness of creation, of course; but out of more than that, too. Half earth’s gorgeousness lies hidden in the glimpsed city it longs to become  (Simple Quotes)
