Surprised Quotes

Kittredge had obviously misjudged her, but he had learned that was the way with most people. The story was never the story, and it surprised you, how much another person could carry Picture Quote #1

For me, writing is exploration; and most of the time, I’m surprised where the journey takes me Picture Quote #1

A woman’s preaching is like a dog’s walking on his hinter legs. It is not done well; but you are surprised to see it done at all Picture Quote #1

Nile perch are enormous but lethargic fish, easy to catch once they have taken your bait. Some are bright golden yellow, some grey pink with the large, round surprised eyes of all fish, in which we humans cannot read any expression of pain or suffering, so that, as with insects or mollusks, we feel absolved of their deaths Picture Quote #1

There were also the razor marks on her wrists and forearms, half a dozen per arm, not very deep, not very convincing really, just a lame, hapless attempt at hurting herself. There hadn’t even been that much blood and nobody at the hospital had been at all surprised. These scars, for some reason, he didn’t mind. Maybe they even appealed to him. They showed that she was weak and in need of him Picture Quote #1

A man is never astonished that he doesn’t know what another does, but he is surprised at the gross ignorance of the other in not knowing what he does Picture Quote #1

Obviously, it wasn’t meant for me to die of cancer at 40. Every day my life surprises me, just like my cancer diagnosis surprised me. But you roll with it. That’s our job as humans Picture Quote #1

I was surprised by the response of young people because there is a perception that those younger than the 1988 generation are not interested in politics Picture Quote #1

Refrain from being too judgmental. You’ll often be surprised by what people have to offer Picture Quote #1

Youd be surprised how inspired youll be when you go into a different store than the one you normally go to for gifts Picture Quote #1

I’m surprised I still have so much hair after all the things I’ve done with it Picture Quote #1

When I go to the cinema, I want to have a cinematic experience. Some people ignore the sound and you end up seeing something you might see on television and it doesn’t explore the form. Sound is the other picture. When you show people a rough cut without the sound mix they are often really surprised. Sound creates a completely new world. With dialogue, people say a lot of things they don’t mean. I like dialogue when it’s used in a way when the body language says the complete opposite. But I love great dialogue I think expositional dialogue is quite crass and not like real life Picture Quote #1

I’m surprised when the work appears beautiful, and very pleased. And I think work can be very good and very successful without being able to call it beautiful, although I’m not clear about that. The work is good when it has a certain completeness, and when it’s got a certain completeness, then it’s beautiful Picture Quote #1

When you envision yourself doing something, you’ll be surprised at how much that helps you to actually do it Picture Quote #1

If you turn it over to the universe, you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered to you. This is where magic and miracles happen Picture Quote #1

People that trust themselves a dozen miles from the city, in strange houses, with servants they don’t know, needn’t be surprised if they wake up some morning and find their throats cut Picture Quote #1

You change society by changing the wind. Change the wind, transform the debate, recast the discussion, alter the context in which political discussions are being made, and you will change the outcomes... You will be surprised at how fast the politicians adjust to the change in the wind Picture Quote #1

We all have our own battles to fight, and sometimes we have to go it alone. I’m stronger than you think, you’d be surprised Picture Quote #1

This is the culture you’re raising your kids in. Don’t be surprised if it blows up in your face Picture Quote #1

Each time I write, each time the authentic words break through, I am changed. The older order that I was collapses and dies. I lose control. I do not know exactly what words will appear on the page. I follow language. I follow the sound of the words, and I am surprised and transformed by what I record Picture Quote #1

If you train your mind to search for the positive things about other people, you will be surprised at how many good things you can observe in them and comment upon Picture Quote #1

At every concert I leave a lot to the moment. I must have the unexpected, the unforeseen. I want to risk, to dare. I want to be surprised by what comes out. I want to enjoy it more than the audience. That way the music can bloom anew. It’s like making love. The act is always the same, but each time it’s different Picture Quote #1

Don’t instill, or allow anybody else to instill into the hearts of your girls the idea that marriage is the chief end of life. If you do, don’t be surprised if they get engaged to the first empty, useless fool they come across Picture Quote #1

Baby steps count, as long as you are going forward. You add them all up, and one day you look back and you’ll be surprised at where you might get to Picture Quote #1

It was one of those winter days that suddenly dream of spring, when the sky is blue and soft and clear, and the wind has dropped its voice and whispers instead of screaming, and the sun is out and the trees look surprised, and over everything there is the faintest, palest tint of green Picture Quote #1

I get on base by making good contact with the ball. But whenever I hit a home run, I’m as surprised as everybody else Picture Quote #1

Success can also cause misery. The trick is not to be surprised when you discover it doesn’t bring you all the happiness and answers you thought it would Picture Quote #1

I was surprised how I was feeling on the court because I was focused only on the point and on the game and not on the final Picture Quote #1

So long as you are in this world, be not surprised at the existence of sorrows Picture Quote #1
