People make changes in their life, and they blend and assimilate. They find a way to make it work. That’s where I’ve always taken the wrong turn. By not taking a turn at all (Taken Quotes)
There is a latent fairy in all women, but look how carefully we have to secrete her in order to be taken seriously. And fairies come in all shapes, colours, sizes and types, they don’t have to be fluffy. They can be demanding and furious if hey like. They do, however, have to wear a tiara. That much is compulsory (Taken Quotes)
So much of liberalism in its classical sense is taken for granted in the west today and even disrespected. We take freedom for granted, and because of this we don’t understand how incredibly vulnerable it is (Taken Quotes)
The land and everything on it can be taken away, but no one can take away your knowledge or the degrees you earn (Taken Quotes)

We are here because over billions of years, countless variables fell into place, any of which could have taken another path.

Our cells are composed of atoms and dust particles from distant galaxies, and from the billions of living organisms that inhabited this planet before us (Taken Quotes)
For something to be great, there has to be some kind of trial or some type of struggle that actually makes it special or valuable to you. Otherwise, anything could be easily taken for granted (Taken Quotes)
For years and years, I convinced myself that I was unbreakable, an animal with an animal strength or something not human at all. Me, I told people, I take damage like a wall, a brick wall that never falls down, never feels anything, never flinches or remembers. I am one woman but I carry in my body all the stories I have ever been told, women I have known, women who have taken damage until they tell themselves they can feel no pain at all (Taken Quotes)
Listen to me: everything you think you know, every relationship you’ve ever taken for granted, every plan or possibility you’ve ever hatched, every conceit or endeavor you’ve ever concocted, can be stripped from you in an instant. Sooner or later, it will happen. So prepare yourself. Be ready not to be ready. Be ready to be brought to your knees and beaten to dust. Because no stable foundation, no act of will, no force of cautious habit will save you from this fact: nothing is indestructible (Taken Quotes)
Sometimes fear made you angry. Perhaps after years anger cooled, like a sword taken from a forge. Perhaps in the end you were left with something very cold and very sharp (Taken Quotes)
When you’re used to having electricity and then all of a sudden it’s taken away, you’re basically just one step from being a wild animal (Taken Quotes)
In our secular society, school has become the replacement for church, and like church it requires that its teachings must be taken on faith (Taken Quotes)
He was persuaded he could know no happiness but in the society of one with whom he could for ever indulge the melancholy that had taken possession of his soul (Taken Quotes)
She didn’t want to be reminded of her past or how different her present was from the future she’d taken for granted (Taken Quotes)
It happened like this. I was stolen from an airport. Taken from everything I knew, everything I was used to. Taken to sand and heat, dirt and danger. And he expected me to love him. This is my story. A letter from nowhere (Taken Quotes)
She had sacrificed her childhood to save her brothers; she loved her family above all else, and her spirits yearned to return home once more, to the wild forest and the land of mystic tales and ancient spirits whence he had taken her. That was the place of her heart, and if he loved her, he must let her go (Taken Quotes)
I like trains. I like their rhythm, and I like the freedom of being suspended between two places, all anxieties of purpose taken care of: for this moment I know where I am going (Taken Quotes)
I swear, I end up feeling empty, like you’ve taken something out of me and I have to search my body for scars (Taken Quotes)
The raw fact is that every successful example of economic development this past century... has taken place via globalization (Taken Quotes)
Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts. Such facts may be detailed with the most minute exactness, and yet the narrative, taken as a whole, may be unmeaning or untrue. The narrator must seek to imbue himself with the life and spirit of the time. He must study events in their bearings near and remote; in the character, habits, and manners of those who took part in them. He must himself be, as it were, a sharer or a spectator of the action he describes (Taken Quotes)
There is a time for scientists and movie stars and those who have flown the atlantic to restrain their opinions lest they be taken more seriously than they should be (Taken Quotes)
They must find it difficult... those who have taken authority as the truth, rather than truth as the authority (Taken Quotes)

To accept the fact that, after fertilization has taken place, a new human has come into being is no longer a matter of taste or opinion. The human nature of the human being from conception to old age is not a metaphysical conception. It is plain experimental evidence (Taken Quotes)
Economic development over the past two centuries has taken most of humanity from lives that were brutal, ignorant and short, to personal health and security, material comfort and knowledge that were unknown to the elites of the wealthiest and most powerful societies in earlier times (Taken Quotes)
