Stand Quotes

It was an odd thing to do, to stand in a street in the hope of seeing someone who hardly knew him, but he did not want to move Picture Quote #1

There has to be a moment when you choose happiness, when you stand up, raise your face towards the sun, and just grab joy and put it in a place where no one can ever take it away from you Picture Quote #1

Jacob: I’ve never seen so much manure. Wade: Baggage stock horses. They pack’em in 27 a car. Jacob: how do you stand the smell? Wade: what smell? Picture Quote #1

O what a blessed day that will be when I shall... stand on the shore and look back on the raging seas I have safely passed; when I shall review my pains and sorrows, my fears and tears, and possess the glory which was the end of all! Picture Quote #1

I had grown up. I had learned that being a woman was knowing when to stand firm and when to compromise. I had learned to laugh and weep; I had learned that I was weak as well as strong. I had learned to love. I was no longer a rigid, upright tree that would not flex and bow, even though the gale threatened to snap it in two; I was the willow that bends and shivers and sways, and yet remains strong Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I am like other people. I mean on some deep fundamental level. It’s not just being half a twin and reading a lot and seeing fairies. It’s not just being outside when they’re all inside. I used to be inside. I think there’s a way I stand aside and look backwards at things when they’re happening which isn’t normal Picture Quote #1

All I could think of when I got a look at the place from the outside was what fun it would be to stand out there and watch it burn down Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it seems to stand still. Like you’re in a bag and you can’t get out and somebody’s always telling you that it will get better with time and time just seems to stand still and laugh at you and your pain Picture Quote #1

I have never thought I could take it, not even for the children. It is all I have wanted to do, to stand between them and and pain. But I come from a long line of women who put themselves first Picture Quote #1

To stand at the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold thousands of years, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any earthly life can be Picture Quote #1

I mean, when the world comes for your children, with the knives out, it’s your job to stand in the way Picture Quote #1

Give me but a firm spot on which to stand, and I shall move the earth Picture Quote #1

Perhaps nothing is more magical then the book. Paper, glue and some words and you are taken away from where you sit, stand, dance, or lean Picture Quote #1

It was strange to be naked in front of anybody. It was like that cold water out there in the bay: scary, you didn’t think you could stand it, but then you plunged in and pretty soon you got used to it. There was enough hiding in life. Sometimes you just wanted to show somebody your tits Picture Quote #1

Come with me into the world and reclaim your independence. You stand to gain so much, and riches are the least of it Picture Quote #1

It is right that we should stand by and act on our principles; but not right to hold them in obstinate blindness, or retain them when proved to be erroneous Picture Quote #1

You stand next to the sea and you’re in touch with all your longings and all your losses Picture Quote #1

If you live in such a manner as to stand the test of the last judgment, you can depend upon it that the world will not speak well of you Picture Quote #1

I’m not going to run, I’m going to stand here and watch. Every blow will cut into my heart, and tell me who and what you are Picture Quote #1

For a girl, appearance can be a powerful form of oppression. No matter how intelligent a girl may be, no matter her many talents, these attributes are not easily discerned. Brains and talent will never stand up against a girl who is clearly physically attractive Picture Quote #1

The fact is, there is no foundation, no secure ground, upon which people may stand today if it isn’t the family Picture Quote #1

A wise man once said that we can’t make anyone feel or do anything. We can throw things into the wind, but it’s up to each person to decide how they want to react, where they want to stand when things fall Picture Quote #1

Life is a train that stops at no stations; you either jump abroad or stand on the platform and watch as it passes Picture Quote #1

It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what Picture Quote #1

I have always felt that the action most worth watching is not at the center of things but where edges meet. I like shorelines, weather fronts, international borders. There are interesting frictions and incongruities in these places, and often, if you stand at the point of tangency, you can see both sides better than if you were in the middle of either one Picture Quote #1

You said go to her, and I let pride stand in my way. You said she needed me, and I didn’t believe. You said love her, and I thought it would be easy Picture Quote #1

In the end there is nothing to be done but to state clearly what has been done, without shame or regret, and say: Here I am, and this is what I am. Now deal with me as you see fit. That is your right. Mine is to stand by the act, and pay the price. You do what you must do, and pay for it. So in the end all things are simple Picture Quote #1

You stand for nothing. You respect nobody. The music you dance to is devoid of beauty, its lyrics empty of humor or cleverness Picture Quote #1

... the men of the Ulysses had no need to stand in shame... many had found, or were finding, that the point of no return was not necessarily the edge of the precipice: it could be the bottom of the valley, the beginning of the long climb up the far slope, and when a man had once begun that climb he never looked back to that other side Picture Quote #1

Julie always tried to stand beside me, or talk to me, or in some other way mortify me Picture Quote #1
