Whole Quotes

She says people ought to learn to live like them, with the body abandoned in a wilderness, and in the mind the memory of a single kiss, a single word, a single look to stand for a whole love Picture Quote #1

Being human means throwing your whole life on the scales of destiny when need be, all the while rejoicing in every sunny day and every beautiful cloud Picture Quote #1

$I have for a long time felt that our society is becoming more and more fractured and divisive and that you could go a whole day without really talking to another person. If you give people a good book to talk about, you can build a community out of a diverse group. A common language grows out of it Picture Quote #1$

You think that what I’ve told you is an anecdote. But really it isn’t. It’s my whole life. It’s the only story I have Picture Quote #1

Purring is not so different from praying. To a tree, a cat’s purr is one of the purest of all prayers, for in it lies a whole mixture of gratitude and longing, the twin ingredients of every prayer Picture Quote #1

Your head’s like mine, like all our heads; big enough to contain every God and devil there ever was. Big enough to hold the weight of oceans and the turning stars. Whole universes fit in there! But what do we choose to keep in this miraculous cabinet? Little broken things, sad trinkets that we play with over and over. The world turns our key and we play the same little tune again and again and we think that tune’s all we are Picture Quote #1

The greatest beauty is organic wholeness, the wholeness of life and things, the divine beauty of the universe Picture Quote #1

I had spent my whole life feeling homesick. The only difference between the two of us was that I didn’t know what or where home was Picture Quote #1

I will be the answer at the end of the line. I will be there for you. Why take the time? In the burning of uncertainty, I will be your solid ground. I, I will hold the balance if you can’t look down. If it takes my whole life, I won’t break. I won’t bend. It will all be worth it, worth it in the end because I can only tell you what I know, that I need you in my life. When the stars have all gone out you’ll still be burning so bright Picture Quote #1

A shadowless man is a monster, a devil, a thing of evil. A man without a shadow is soulless. A shadow without a man is a pitiable shred. Yet together, light and dark, they make a whole Picture Quote #1

You can’t regret a whole period in your life... It’s part of who you are, one of your stories Picture Quote #1

I hope the snow covers everything so all the footsteps are silenced, and the whole city can be at peace Picture Quote #1

We both wondered whether these contradictions that one can’t avoid if one begins to think of time and space may not really be proofs that the whole of life is a dream, and the moon and stars bits of nightmare Picture Quote #1

I start to see that I surround myself with broken people; more broken than me. Ah, yes, let me count your cracks. Let’s see, one hundred, two... yes, you’ll do nicely. A cracked companion makes me look more whole, gives me something outside myself to care for. When I’m with whole, healed people I feel my own cracks, the shatters, the insanities of dislocation in myself Picture Quote #1

Before this moment I’d lived as a mind. Body, heart, soul, intellect, so we care ourselves into parts. But the whole of us, what can it be? Picture Quote #1

The aim of poetry and the poet is finally to be of service, to ply the effort of the individual into the larger work of the community as a whole Picture Quote #1

And do you know a funny thing? I’m almost fifty years old and I’ve never understood anything in my whole life Picture Quote #1

I feel the need to reaffirm all of it, the whole unhappy territory and all the things loved and unloveable in it, for it is all part of me Picture Quote #1

I do what I’ve trained my whole life to do. I watch the ball. I keep my eye on the ball. I never stop watching. I watch it as it sails past me and lands in the catcher’s mitt, a perfect and glorious strike three Picture Quote #1

Her heartbeat was in her hands, her heart beat the way she moved her head, her whole body was her heart beating Picture Quote #1

What makes the strength of a soldier isn’t the energy he uses trying to intimidate the other guy by sending him a whole lot of signals, it’s the strength he’s able to concentrate within himself, by staying centered Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you walk past a pretty girl on the street there’s something beyond beauty in her face, something warm and smart and inviting, and in the three seconds you have to look at her, you actually fall in love, and in those moments, you can actually know the taste of her kiss, the feel of her skin against yours, the sound of her laugh, how she’ll look at you and make you whole. And then she’s gone, and in the five seconds afterwards, you mourn her loss with more sadness than you’ll ever admit to Picture Quote #1

Flirting with madness was one thing; when madness started flirting back, it was time to call the whole thing off Picture Quote #1

I love the night passionately. I love it as I love my country, or my mistress, with an instinctive, deep, and unshakeable love. I love it with all my senses: I love to see it, I love to breathe it in, I love to open my ears to its silence, I love my whole body to be caressed by its blackness. Skylarks sing in the sunshine, the blue sky, the warm air, in the fresh morning light. The owl flies by night, a dark shadow passing through the darkness; he hoots his sinister, quivering hoot, as though he delights in the intoxicating black immensity of space Picture Quote #1

What is a clock? Something agreed upon and arbitrarily imposed upon us. Standard time. Not true time. Symbolizing the whole standardization of our lives Picture Quote #1

Time is not the great teacher. Experience is. A man may live a whole life, but if he never leaves his home to experience that life, he dies knowing nothing. A mere child who has suffered and lived can be the wiser of the two Picture Quote #1

Thus her whole identity hangs in the balance of her love life. She is allowed to love herself only if a man finds her worthy of love Picture Quote #1

I wish the whole day were like breakfast, when people are still connected to their dreams, focused inward, and not yet ready to engage with the world around them. I realized this is how I am all day; for me, unlike other people, there doesn’t come a moment after a cup of coffee or a shower or whatever when I suddenly feel alive and awake and connected to the world. If it were always breakfast, I would be fine Picture Quote #1

Suddenly I realize that everyone in the whole world is, at the end of a day, staring at a dusky horizon, owner of a day that no one else will ever know Picture Quote #1

Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed Picture Quote #1
