Text Quotes
Anxiety and desire are two, often conflicting, orientations to the unknown. Both are tilted toward the future. Desire implies a willingness, or a need, to engage this unknown, while anxiety suggests a fear of it. Desire takes one out of oneself, into the possibility or relationship, but it also takes one deeper into oneself. Anxiety turns one back on oneself, but only onto the self that is already known (While Quotes)
Grief is a house where the chairs have forgotten how to hold us the mirrors how to reflect us the walls how to contain us grief is a house that disappears each time someone knocks at the door or rings the bell a house that blows into the air at the slightest gust that buries itself deep in the ground while everyone is sleeping grief is a house where no on can protect you where the younger sister will grow older than (While 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 (While Quotes)
Resistance is a powerful motivator precisely because it enables us to fulfill our longing to achieve our goals while letting us boldly recognize and name the obstacles to those achievements (While Quotes)
David’s mother would often tell him stories were alive. They weren’t alive in the way people were alive,or even dogs or cats. People were alive whether you chose to notice them or not, while dogs tended to make you notice them if they decided that you weren’t paying enough attention. Cats, meanwhile, were very good at pretending people didn’t exist at all when it suited them (While Quotes)

Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. The cloud clears as you enter it. I have learned this, but like everyone, I learned it late (While Quotes)
Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences. It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond (While Quotes)
.. the fields might fall to fallow and the birds might stop their song awhile; the growing things might die and lie in silence under snow, while through it all the cold sea wore its face of storms and death and sunken hopes... and yet unseen beneath the waves a warmer current ran that, in its time, would bring the spring (While Quotes)
After a while, footsteps sounded on the flagstones outside and there was a gentle tap at the door. Of course, one of them would come. So close were we, the seven of us, that no childhood injury went unnoticed, no slight, real or imagined, went unaddressed, no hurt was endured without comfort (While Quotes)
As for her perfume, it was the kind you only noticed after she’d left a room, not while she was still in it. Even then you didn’t realize it was perfume, you only wondered what had made you think of her just then (While Quotes)
The world is a den of thieves, and night is falling. Evil breaks its chains and runs through the world like a mad dog. The poison affects us all. No one escapes. Therefore let us be happy while we are happy. Let us be kind, generous, affectionate and good. It is necessary and not at all shameful to take pleasure in the little world (While Quotes)
Most men fear getting laughed at or humiliated by a romantic prospect while most women fear rape and death (While Quotes)
When people learn to master their feelings, they can soon learn to master their reflections and thoughts in the degree requisite for attaining the objects they are seeking. But while they yield to a feeling or spirit that distracts their minds from a subject they wish to study and learn, so long they will never gain the mastery of their minds (While Quotes)
Though the funny thing about never being asked for anything is that after a while you start to feel like maybe you don’t have anything worth giving (While Quotes)
People don’t get to change things. Things change people once in a while, but people don’t change things (While Quotes)
A good lover will do that, see something worthwhile in you that you never knew was there. And when there’s something you don’t like to see in yourself a good lover won’t see it either (While Quotes)
Two people can only live as one when each is prepared to give and receive trust and understanding. Above that lies respect. Without respect for how the other feels, no marriage is worthwhile (While Quotes)
I hadn’t liked him at first. He did sort of grow on you after a while. Like the cosmopolitans. Or maybe because of the cosmopolitans (While Quotes)
Knowing that the battle will not end the way he wishes does not make it any less worthwhile the fight (While Quotes)
It takes a person of great care and insight to watch for any abnormality in the green grass even while it grows abundantly and healthily (While Quotes)
... Don’t rupture another’s illusion unless you’re positive the alternative you offer is more worthwhile than that from which you’re wrenching them. Interrogate your solipsism: Does it offer any better a home than the delusions you’re reaching to shatter? (While Quotes)
Meanwhile, life keeps moving forward. The truth is, there’s no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when? (While Quotes)

By then she was dead. In fact, she may have been dead a while ago. Physically, several seconds ago, mentally, ages ago (While Quotes)
Death is not an evil, because it frees us from all evils, and while it takes away good things, it takes away also the desire for them. Old age is the supreme evil, because it deprives us of all pleasures, leaving us only the appetite for them, and it brings with it all sufferings. Nevertheless, we fear death, and we desire old age (While Quotes)
The poet…is the man of metaphor: while the philosopher is interested only in the truth of meaning, beyond even signs and names, and the sophist manipulates empty signs…the poet plays on the multiplicity of signifieds (While Quotes)
It’s what they say to do when you’re depressed, you know. Walk in someone else’s shoes for a while, and your own won’t feel so tight (While Quotes)
Students never appreciate their teachers while they are learning. It is only later, when they know more of the world, that they understand how indebted they are to those who instructed them. Good teachers expect no praise or love from the young. They wait for it, and in time, it comes (While Quotes)
Utopianism substitutes glorious predictions and unachievable promises for knowledge, science, and reason, while laying claim to them all (While Quotes)
