Wonder Quotes

Why is life so tragic; so like a little strip of pavement over an abyss. I look down; I feel giddy; I wonder how I am ever to walk to the end Picture Quote #1

I often wonder how we can make the more fortunate in this country fully aware of the fact that the problem of the unemployed is not a mechanical one. It is a problem alive and throbbing with human pain Picture Quote #1

How much of the fun of parenthood lay in watching the children remake, with delighted wonder, one’s own discoveries Picture Quote #1

I like handling newborn animals. Fallen into life from an unmappable world, they are the ultimate immigrants, full of wonder and confusion Picture Quote #1

One of the things I like best about animals in the wild is that they’re always off on some errand. They have appointments to keep. It’s only we humans who wonder what we’re here for Picture Quote #1

Wonder is a bulky emotion. When you let it fill your heart and mind, there isn’t room for anxiety, distress or anything else Picture Quote #1

The lovers of life, they are children at heart always in their wonder and delight, but they do not grab Picture Quote #1

The artist’s work, it is sometimes said, is to celebrate. But really that is not so; it is to express wonder. And something terrible resides at the heart of wonder. Celebration is social, amenable. Wonder has a chaotic splendor Picture Quote #1

You are not an encapsulated bag of skin dragging around a dreary little ego. You are an evolutionary wonder, a trillion cells singing together in a vast chorale, an organism – environment, a symbiosis of cell and soul Picture Quote #1

It is technically very hard to show positive manifestations. But I can look back at the way I thought and felt even as a little kid and there was a lot of wonder there, and openness to the many sides of life Picture Quote #1

It’s no wonder human beings are so narcissistic. The way our ears are constructed, we can hear only what is right next to us or else the internal monologue inside Picture Quote #1

When I first began this diary I said I would give a record of my inner life. I begin to wonder if I have said anything about my inner life. What if I have no inner life? Picture Quote #1

I wonder if those experts who tell us that our sexual appetite is the strongest know what real thirst feels like; I can imagine the desire for water driving someone to commit a crime to which sexual desire could never drive them Picture Quote #1

I wonder whether there has been too much emphasis on teaching women to conform, to fit into the system. Certainly that suits conservative organizations in conservative times. But now... innovation and creativity are necessary Picture Quote #1

Whoever is devoid of the capacity to wonder, whoever remains unmoved, whoever cannot contemplate or know the deep shudder of the soul in enchantment, might just as well be dead for he has already closed his eyes upon life Picture Quote #1

I wonder, now, about interrogation chambers: why do they think bright light brings the truth out of people? They should try the seduction of shadows, where you cannot watch your words hit their target Picture Quote #1

I’d rather know how you feel than hope and wonder and delude myself for weeks on end Picture Quote #1

I am not especially good at remembering the actualities of the world I inhabit, but I have pretty strong associative memories of how it feels to live in that world, and to wonder at its weird machinations, at any age Picture Quote #1

I certainly have had experiences of a sense of wonder at the world and a feeling that even though it could all be explained rationally, it still feels that there is more to it Picture Quote #1

Shocked to realize how much vitality is required simply to support our primitive requirements, we wonder, bewildered, where Art fits in Picture Quote #1

Never drink more than one cocktail before giving a talk. True, the drinks may relax you, but they may also slur your speech and blur your memory, making you wonder who are all those people out there and why are they staring at you? Picture Quote #1

I wonder if these death penalty proponents would still hold that it’s worth some risk of error if it were their loved one who was murdered by the state, though innocent Picture Quote #1

We create a mask to meet the masks of others. Then we wonder why we cannot love, and why we feel so alone Picture Quote #1

My father passed away before he saw me perform. I can’t help but wonder what he would think of all this. I go to a job in full makeup Picture Quote #1

Adolescence is a sort of underworld we have to live through. Everything is in us, even vice and crime. At the same time we discover free will. I wonder that it doesn’t tear us off our bases for good and all Picture Quote #1

Think of your husband as a lover from a previous life, and wonder what you did to deserve him Picture Quote #1

My parents made no money whatsoever, but they really knew how to see, as artists. So a big adventure might be, on a hot, dreadful day with no place to go, to go out and draw our chickens with pastels. My parents gave me a sense of wonder Picture Quote #1

You really have to wonder why we even bother to get up in the morning. I mean, really: Why work? Simply to buy more stuff? Picture Quote #1

Someday war and poverty will be crazy and we will wonder how the world allowed such things to exist Picture Quote #1

It’s no wonder we know how to dress; we’ve spent centuries in closets Picture Quote #1
