Text Quotes

Rainfall drops, deserts spread, the climate warms  (Telling Quotes) When I write I try as far as possible to forget I’m writing it at all. I tell it down onto the page, as if I’m telling it to one person only, my best friend  (Telling Quotes) I don’t know the law, the kind of law of quantity and quality, but I think the opportunity of people being able to express themselves and to have the means of production is a great thing. It’s also changing how we’re telling stories  (Telling Quotes) I’m not glorifying it at all, I’m just basically telling you that sometimes I have suicidal thoughts. And maybe I should seek help, or maybe it’s not that deep  (Telling Quotes) I can keep learning about all the different technologies. It’s my most telling characteristic. I’m interested in trying anything new  (Telling Quotes) I love heels, I’m telling you. When I walk in flats, I get knee pain  (Telling Quotes) Some of the most morally conscious, kindest, most compassionate people are in the entertainment industry, people who want to affect the world and make it a better place through telling human, heartfelt stories  (Telling Quotes) I get quite disappointed that we’re still telling stories that I think are problematic in terms of what they’re saying about women  (Telling Quotes) And it was always the stories that needed the telling that gave us the rope we could cross any river with. They balanced us high above any crevasse. They made us be natural acrobats. They made us brave. They met us well. They changed us. It was in their nature to  (Telling Quotes) Each child’s story is worthy of telling. There shouldn’t be a sliding scale of death. The weight of it is crushing  (Telling Quotes) All children mythologise their birth. It is a universal trait. You want to know someone? Heart, mind and soul? Ask him to tell you about when he was born. What you get won’t be the truth: it will be a story. And nothing is more telling than a story  (Telling Quotes) History was a series of decisions about what to tell and a series of accidents about what survived after telling. Not truth, but a historian could search for truth, and the search was as worthy as any other human activity  (Telling Quotes) It was a lie but he believed in telling lies to people. Truth telling and medicine just didn’t go together except in dire emergencies, if then  (Telling Quotes) Perhaps it is our fear, that in the silence between stories, in the moment of falling, the fear that we will never find the one story which will save us, and so we lunge for another, and we feel safe again, if only for as long as we are telling it  (Telling Quotes) It is difficult to see ourselves as we are. Sometimes we are fortunate enough to have good friends, lovers or others who will do us the good service of telling us the truth about ourselves. When we don’t, we can so easily delude ourselves, lose a sense of truth about ourselves, and our conscience loses power and purpose. Mostly, we tell ourselves what we would like to hear. We lose our way  (Telling Quotes) There’s no one on the island telling them they’re not good enough, so they just go ahead and sing and paint and write  (Telling Quotes) I have been criticized throughout the course of my career for placing too much faith in the reliability of children’s narratives; but I have almost always found that children are a great deal more reliable in telling us what actually goes on in public school than many of the adult experts who develop policies that shape their destinies  (Telling Quotes) He always reminded us that every atom in our bodies was once part of a distant star that had exploded. He talked about how evolution moves from simplicity toward complexity, and how human intelligence is the highest known expression of evolution. I remember him telling me that a frog’s brain is much more complex than a star. He saw human consciousness as the first neuron of the universe coming to life and awareness. A spark in the darkness, waiting to spread to fire  (Telling Quotes) She was not sorry. And if it was the wine telling her that, then she would tell the wine the same thing tomorrow. She was not sorry  (Telling Quotes) That’s the trouble with a story spinner. You never know what’s real and what’s made up. Even when they are telling the truth, they can’t stop themselves from spinning it into something better; something prettier, with more of a pattern to it  (Telling Quotes) Drawing is the poet’s written line, set down to see if there be a story worth telling, a truth worth revealing  (Telling Quotes) Honor was never taking the easy way when it was also the wrong one. Never telling a falsehood unless the truth was painful and unnecessary, or a lie was necessary to save others. Never manipulating the truth to serve only yourself. Protecting the weak and helpless; standing fast even when fear made you weak. Keeping your word  (Telling Quotes) The single best thing about coming out of the closet is that nobody can insult you by telling you what you’ve just told them  (Telling Quotes) That meant I could come back whenever I could manage it. And she was telling me to go. She knew the decision was too big a load for me to carry by myself. She knew me through and through. She had eyes in the back of her heart  (Telling Quotes) I spent my time drinking and staring at a television in the airport bar. More death and destruction. Crime. Pollution. All the news stories were telling me to be frightened. All the commercials were telling me to buy things I didn´t need. The message was that people could only be passive victims or consumers  (Telling Quotes) As no two people see the world the same way, all trips from here to there are imaginary; all truth is a tale I am telling myself  (Telling Quotes) I’m telling you, you did what you believed you had to do through all of this. Not what was easiest or best for you. You did what you did, and you’re owning it. And I don’t know ten men who would be brave enough to do that  (Telling Quotes) I love you. I’m blind for you, wild for you. Sick with you. I told you that our first night together when I asked you to marry me, I am telling you now. Everything that’s happened to us, everything, is because I crossed the street for you. I worship you. You know that through and through  (Telling Quotes) Feeling is not selective, I keep telling you that. You can’t feel pain, you aren’t gonna feel anything else, either  (Telling Quotes)
