Text Quotes
The things that separate the planes are the incisions and the edges of the matter. Each separate layer of cutting or painting is visible and readable as an edge  (The Thing Quotes) The doll had an adult shaped body, the thing that I had been trying to describe for years, and our guys said it couldn’t be done  (The Thing Quotes) People ask me what my greatest strengths are and I say perspective. The best way to get that is to meet people that are polar opposites; you learn the most from them. There are pieces of you that are inherently yours, but everything else is a collection of the things you’ve seen and the people you’ve met  (The Thing Quotes) The last thing I want to be is sanctimonious, but the thing that frustrates me is the deceit and betrayal, how there’s one rule for males and another for females  (The Thing Quotes) I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head. I want to be that kind of friend. The one who will memorize the things you say as well as the shape of your lips when you say them. I want to know every curve, every freckle, every shiver of your body. I want to know where to touch you, I want to know how to touch you. I want to know convince you to design a smile just for me. Yes, I do want to be your friend. I want to be your best friend in the entire world  (The Thing Quotes) Do the things you believe in, in the name of love. And know that, you aren’t alone. We all have doubts and fears  (The Thing Quotes) If initiative is the ability to do the right thing, then efficiency is the ability to do the thing right  (The Thing Quotes) It’s always strange to read the things you’ve hoped for in the past because by now those hopes may be spoken for or gone, transformed or altogether forgotten. Like time, hope can be so senseless. It can carry us up mountains or lie us in the quicksand. But like time, hope is unstoppable, inevitable, and blind. Sometimes we travel fast, hurdling towards the unknown, sometimes the unknown comes hurdling towards us while we watch time standing still  (The Thing Quotes) The things that stop you having sex with age are exactly the same as those that stop you riding a bicycle  (The Thing Quotes) Resistance here doesn’t mean revolution. It doesn’t mean storming the barricades. Resistance means using art for the things that it does best, which is to create human portraits and communicate ideas and forge a climate where people of different races or classes are known to you because they make themselves known. In the simplest terms, art humanizes. It opens the circuit of empathy. And once that process happens, it’s that much harder to think of people as part of a policy or a statistic. Art reverses the alienation that can creep into society  (The Thing Quotes) I’ve always loved fairy tales. I think they perhaps led me to theater rather than the other way around. As a child I wanted to invent a machine that could record my dreams, so I could watch them in the morning; or hire someone to draw the things I had in my head, because I knew I didn’t have the skill to do it myself. Theater is that machine. I can make these images come to life and actually walk around inside them for a while  (The Thing Quotes) There are many different stories to tell. It’s never the same. Every day weather blows in and out, alters the surface. Sometimes it is stripped down to a single essential truth, the thing that is always believed, no matter what. The seeds from which the garden has grown  (The Thing Quotes) Of all the things that your company owns, brands are far and away the most important and the toughest. Founders die. Factories burn down. Machinery wears out. Inventories get depleted. Technology becomes obsolete. Brand loyalty is the only sound foundation on which business leaders can build enduring, profitable growth  (The Thing Quotes) Our God is the thing, or person, which we think most precious, for whom we would make the greatest sacrifice, and who moves our heart with the warmest love. He is the person or thing that if lost would leave us desolate  (The Thing Quotes) Maybe its time we get a toolbox that doesnt just count whats easily counted, the tangible in life, but actually counts what we most value, the things that are intangible  (The Thing Quotes) That’s the thing about life; everything feels so permanent, but you can disappear in an instant  (The Thing Quotes) Depending on their fondest memory of you, most people hold on so tightly to their fondest memory they don’t usually let you be anything greater than that. And that’s one of the things I think I allowed myself to be a victim of earlier in my career. What I learned as I got older is I decide. I decide what it’s like for me, not other people. You can be whatever you’d like to be. You just have to choose it  (The Thing Quotes) Remember to enjoy everything. The things that feel good, the things that hurt. It’s all gonna make you better. Stronger  (The Thing Quotes) There are the things that are out in the open and then there are the things that are hidden, and life has more to do, the real world has more to do with what is hidden, maybe. You think?  (The Thing Quotes) Here’s the thing about broken hearts. You can always survive them. Always. No matter how deep the hurt, the capacity to heal and move on is even stronger  (The Thing Quotes) I would insist that poetry is a normal human activity and its proper concern all the things that happen to people  (The Thing Quotes) There are a thousand things to hear about, informationally, daily, but the thing that doesn’t go away is the one to pay attention to  (The Thing Quotes) Fiction ought to announce the problems, dramatize the problems, display them. Yet offer no set answer. An answer would solve the mystery. Writing fiction, for me, is about putting on paper my obsessive interest in something mysterious. I may figure out the source of the mystery, the things that brought some action or image to my mind, but to make an equation of it would ruin the story  (The Thing Quotes) No one paid attention to my offense. So having 2,000 hits is one of the things that is an accomplishment  (The Thing Quotes) It’s a joke. Greed and the desire to take drugs are two separate things. If you want to separate the two, the thing you do is make drugs legal. Accept the reality that people do want to change their consciousness, and make an effort to make safer, healthier drugs  (The Thing Quotes) Commenting on playoffs to determine a national champion: I’m not in favor of 15 games either. I think that’s way too much football. The thing that I feel good about is that these guys hung together through 15 games and played hard every week. That’s a marvelous tribute to the kids. We just hung in there today and kept playing. It’s just been a special feeling all year long  (The Thing Quotes) Here’s the thing about faith: It gives us the strength to go on when we want to give in. It gives us the courage to get up when we want to lie down. It gives us the power to make a way out of no way when there ain’t no way. Just as love can’t make you strong until love has made you weak, well, faith can’t lift you up until life has knocked you down. With faith or without it, we can’t stop the waves. But with it, we don’t need to. Because with it we can ride the surf  (The Thing Quotes) Having created the conditions that make markets possible, democracy must do all the things that markets undo or cannot do  (The Thing Quotes) Thats the thing about better. You can’t own it. You can only pursue it. Stalk it. But once youve tasted it, better is never truly beyond your reach  (The Thing Quotes) I wondered where the person was who had taken my place, who wanted to know what news people had been told. I’m always looking for the person who replaces me, who thinks the things I do, who fills in for me when I’m not there. I know there is someone younger than me doing what I did and someone older doing what I will do, and someone my age being just like me  (The Thing Quotes)
