Went Quotes

You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure.

That past which is so presumptuously brought forward as a precedent for the present, was itself founded on some past that went before it Picture Quote #1

It's not easy to know what is true for you or me at twenty-two, my age. But I guess I'm what I feel and see and hear, Harlem, I hear you Picture Quote #1

I loved my friend, he went away from me, there's nothing more to say, the poem ends soft as it began - I loved my friend Picture Quote #1

Graduation day is tough for adults. They go to the ceremony as parents. They come home as contemporaries. After twenty two years of child raising, they are unemployed Picture Quote #1

In this country, it doesn't make any difference where you were born. It doesn't make any difference who your parents were. It doesn't make any difference if, like me, you couldn't even speak English until you were in your twenties Picture Quote #1

A wedding is a party, not a performance. If at the end of the day you are married to the one you love, then everything went perfectly Picture Quote #1

Most of American life consists of driving somewhere and then returning home, wondering why the hell you went Picture Quote #1

And then I went out to the ocean. Do you know what it was like? The waves broke, and each time they did, as they slapped against the sand, I could feel it all through my body. And each time they broke, and each time they thudded down, they said, you have only one life, you have only one life Picture Quote #1

All that ever holds somebody back, I think, is fear. For a minute I had fear. [Then] I went into the [dressing] room and shot my fear in the face Picture Quote #1

If our family was an airline, Mom was the hub and we were the spokes. You rarely went anywhere nonstop; you went via Mom, who directed the traffic flow and determined the priorities: which family member was cleared for takeoff or landing. Even my father was not immune to Mom's scheduling, though he was given more leeway than the rest of us Picture Quote #1

I feel that any form of so called psychotherapy is strongly contraindicated for addicts. The question why did you start using narcotics in the first place? Should never be asked. It is quite as irrelevant to treatment as it would be to ask a malarial patient why he went to a malarial area Picture Quote #1

If you stayed at home, you might not get the opportunity to go to that place again. But if you went, you could always come back Picture Quote #1

I own that I am disposed to say grace upon twenty other occasions in the course of the day besides my dinner. I want a form for setting out upon a pleasant walk, for a moonlight ramble, for a friendly meeting, or a solved problem. Why have none for books, those spiritual repasts - a grace before Milton - a grace before Shakespeare - a devotional exercise proper to be said before reading the Fairy Queen? Picture Quote #1

As I stood outside in Cow Lane, it occurred to me that Heaven must be a place where the library is open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. No... eight days a week Picture Quote #1

The more they talked and argued, the less they understood each other. In the end they fell silent, full of mutual contempt and hatred. And in this silence of the dumb and these speeches of the blind, in this medley of people bound together by the same grief, terror and hope, in this hatred and lack of understanding between men who spoke the same tongue, you could see much of the tragedy of the twentieth century Picture Quote #1

After Bill got his shot, a little color crept into his face and he would become almost coy. It was a gruesome sight. I remember once he told me how he'd been propositioned by a queer who offered him twenty dollars. Bill declined, saying

Heaven must be a place where the library is open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. No … eight days a week Picture Quote #1

I was born on a Thursday, hence the name. My brother was born on a Monday and they called him Anton - go figure. My mother was called Wednesday, but was born on a Sunday - I don't know why - and my father had no name at all - his identity and existence had been scrubbed by the ChronoGuard after he went rogue. To all intents and purposes he didn't exist at all. It didn't matter. He was always Dad to me Picture Quote #1

Houses, like people, are apt to become rather eccentric if left too much on their own; this house was the architectural equivalent of an old gentleman in a worn dressing-gown and torn slippers, who got up and went to bed at odd times of day, and who kept up a continual conversation with friends no one else could see Picture Quote #1

The war went from bad to worse and the Government was universally detested. As each fresh catastrophe came to the public's notice some small share of blame might attach itself to this or that person, but in General everyone united in blaming the Ministers, and they, poor things, had no one to blame but each other - which they did more and more frequently Picture Quote #1

Say dogs have a vocabulary of about twenty words, and I was pretty sure seventeen of Dog's were ham Picture Quote #1
