Text Quotes
Practice is funny that way. For days and days, you make out only the fragments of what to do. And then one day you’ve got the thing whole. Conscious learning becomes unconscious knowledge, and you cannot say precisely how (The Thing Quotes)
The thing I never understood about love is that it can’t be quelled, like lust can. With love, if you follow its call, if you give in to it, it just gets worse. The more you have, the deeper you go, the more you need (The Thing Quotes)
One of the things I keep learning is that the secret of being happy is doing things for other people (The Thing Quotes)
The thing is, I used to like that: feeling special because I knew something no one else did. It’s a kind of power, isn’t it, knowing a secret? But lately I don’t like it so much, knowing this. It’s not really mine to know, is it? (The Thing Quotes)
Love is never easy. We begin by loving the things we can, according to our stature, but it is not long before we find that what we love is other than ourselves and that our love is no protection against being wounded. Do we then speak to dominate what we love, to make it bend to our will, to stop it from hurting us even though to do so is to betray love? And that is only where the difficulty begins (The Thing Quotes)
Sometimes you never feel meaner than the moment you stop being mean. It’s like how turning on a light makes you realize how dark the room had gotten. And the way you usually act, the things you would have normally done, are like these ghosts that everyone can see but pretends not to (The Thing Quotes)
Instead of agonizing about the things you can’t change, why don’t you try working on the things you can change (The Thing Quotes)
It is dreadful when something weighs on your mind, not to have a soul to unburden yourself to. You know what I mean. I tell my piano the things I used to tell you (The Thing Quotes)
Remember that, lad, if you never remember anything else. We all touch each other’s lives, for better or for worse. So say the things you have to say to people while you still have the chance (The Thing Quotes)
Every man kills the things that he loves. Some with a look, some with flattery, the coward with a kiss (The Thing Quotes)
The thing about the heart was that you could not coax it or force it, as you could any other disease. Will power meant nothing (The Thing Quotes)
The things we felt most are hardest to put into words. Hate is always easier to speak of than love. How shall I make love go through the sieve of words and come out something besides a pulp? (The Thing Quotes)
The thing about love is that we can’t control whether we get it, but we can control whether we give it. And each feels as good as the other. Your heart doesn’t know if it’s loving a man, a book, or a puppy. If your heart were that smart, it would be your brain (The Thing Quotes)
Revenge is never what you think it’s going to be. There’s no pleasure and glory, and when it’s done your grief remains. Once a man does the things you’re talking about, he will never be the same, and he can never go back to who he was before. Worst of all, no matter how many enemies you kill, you are never satisfied. There is always one more who deserves it. When it becomes too easy to kill, it never ends (The Thing Quotes)
In the sphere of religion, as in other spheres, the things about which men are agreed are apt to be the things that are least worth holding; the really important things are the things about which men will fight (The Thing Quotes)
I know what it’s like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can’t. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside (The Thing Quotes)
... I started to realize how many great things could happen by confronting the things that scare you most (The Thing Quotes)
I suppose when the things that give you bad dreams live inside you, there’s no point in trying to stop them. They’re going to come out whenever they decide it is their time. Better just to close your eyes and hold on tight, the faster to get the things you fear to go back to sleep themselves (The Thing Quotes)
It was possible, he understood, for a person’s life to become just a long series of mistakes, and that the end, when it came, was just one more mistake in a chain of bad choices. The thing was, most of these mistakes were actually borrowed from other people. You took their bad ideas, and for whatever reason, made them your own (The Thing Quotes)
We don’t own the earth. We are the earth’s caretakers... we take care of it and all the things on it. And when we’re done with it, it should be left better than we found it (The Thing Quotes)
Covers, so many covers, so many different, delectable pictures, and although, metaphorically speaking, it is the thing I hate most, when it comes to literature I always judge books by their covers. First the cover will catch my eye, then I read the back of the book, and then finally the first page (The Thing Quotes)
All creation necessarily ends in this: Creators, powerless, fleeing from the things they have wrought (The Thing Quotes)
I wake up in the morning and I see that flower, with the dew on its petals, and at the way it’s folding out, and it makes me happy, she said. It’s important to focus on the things in the here and now, I think. In a month, the flower will be shriveled and you will miss its beauty if you don’t make the effort to do it now. Your life, eventually, is the same way (The Thing Quotes)
One of the things that we were trying to do with this show was the complexities of relationships and love. There is both passion and longing and a bittersweet quality to it that is a part of life (The Thing Quotes)
Regardless of the popular literary trend of the times, write the thing which lies close to your heart (The Thing Quotes)
One of the things I’ve always liked about science fiction is the way it makes you think about things, and look at things from angles you’d never have thought about before (The Thing Quotes)
I was always searching, always seeking the next big thing, because that was the thing that was going to make everything all right again. And while I was working toward it, it gave me something to think about other than that thing I couldn’t put my finger on. But it always came back (The Thing Quotes)
Why can’t people have what they want? The things were all there to content everybody; yet everybody has the wrong thing (The Thing Quotes)
The thing about leaving something behind for the last time is that you rarely realize you’re doing it (The Thing Quotes)
You have to give to the world the thing that you want the most, in order to fix the broken parts inside you (The Thing Quotes)
