Yes Quotes

Maybe those sorts of yes-or-no life-and-death decisions are easier to make because they are so black and white. I can cope with them because it's easier. Human emotions, well... they're just a fathomless collection of grays and I don't do so well on the midtones Picture Quote #1

As long as I can make them laugh, it doesn't matter how, I'll be alright. If I succeed in that, the human beings probably won't mind it too much if I remain outside their lives. The one thing I must avoid is becoming offensive in their eyes: I shall be nothing, the wind, the sky Picture Quote #1

Most women have only to lay eyes on you to want to be doing something for you so badly they can't stand it … You're always so timid and yet you're funny … Sometimes you get terribly lonesome and depressed, but that only makes a woman's heart itch all the more for you Picture Quote #1

Now, glancing over... as she knelt with her eyes closed, her fingertips touching and pointed to Heaven, and her lips shaping soft words of devotion, I had to pinch myself to keep in mind that I was sitting next to the Devil's Hairball Picture Quote #1

No. You won't do. You've treated me nicely, yes, but only because you find me curious and amusing. It made me feel so lonely, somehow... I'm really just a foolish and useless person Picture Quote #1

Now, if faith is the gaze of the heart at God, and if this gaze is but the raising of the inward eyes to meet the all-seeing eyes of God, then it follows that it is one of the easiest things possible to do. It would be like God to make the most vital thing easy and place it within the range of possibility for the weakest and poorest of us Picture Quote #1

Now, glancing over at Feely as she knelt with her eyes closed, her fingertips touching and pointed to Heaven, and her lips shaping soft words of devotion, I had to pinch myself to keep in mind that I was sitting next to the Devil's Hairball Picture Quote #1

I rather think the cinema will die. Look at the energy being exerted to revive it - yesterday it was color, today three dimensions. I don't give it forty years more. Witness the decline of conversation. Only the Irish have remained incomparable conversationalists, maybe because technical progress has passed them by Picture Quote #1

My unassisted heart is barren clay, That of its native self can nothing feed: Of good and pious works Thou art the seed, That quickens only where Thou sayest it may: Unless Thou show to us Thine own true way No man can find it: Father! Thou must lead Picture Quote #1

Are you married? Yes, I mumbled, that is to say - no. Come, come, said Havisham angrily. It is a simple enough question. I was married, I answered. Died? No, I mumbled, that is to say - yes. I'll try harder questions in future, announced Havisham, for you are obviously not adept at the easy ones Picture Quote #1

Bryon tilted his head to a very odd angle, half-closed his eyes and composed his features to suggest that he was about to expire from chronic indigestion Picture Quote #1

Lord, make me childlike. Deliver me from the urge to compete with another for place or prestige or position. I would be simple and artless as a little child. Deliver me from pose and pretense. Forgive me for thinking of myself. Help me to forget myself and find my true peace in beholding Thee. That Thou mayest answer this prayer I humble myself before Thee. Lay upon me Thy easy yoke of self-forgetfulness that through it I may find rest. Amen Picture Quote #1

If women took up arms to defend their reproductive rights, the GOP would ban assault rifles yesterday Picture Quote #1

Prices of semicolons, plot devices, prologues and inciting incidents continued to fall yesterday, lopping twenty points off the TomJones Index Picture Quote #1

I want to hide from it, that's what I want to do. I want to just close my eyes and let it pass by. Let it take the next man Picture Quote #1

Everyday we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize: a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child - our own two eyes. All is a miracle Picture Quote #1

He does not see as I have that you have given him your heart, but he is male. We will cut him some slack for that handicap, yes? Picture Quote #1

Yes, he is a man, so genetically he's engineered to be dense about many things, but he's not stupid Picture Quote #1

The second rule of improvisation is not only to say yes, but YES, AND. You are supposed to agree and then add something of your own Picture Quote #1

She fell asleep, leaning on his chest, and he edged her a little off a particularly painful bruise, leaned his head back against the tree he had propped them up against, and closed his own eyes Picture Quote #1

Then marry me. For I love you, and I do not believe there is anything so wrong with you. You are fair in my eyes and you lie fair on my heart Picture Quote #1

The true teacher defends his pupils against his own personal influence. He inspires self - trust. He guides their eyes from himself to the spirit that quickens him. He will have no disciples Picture Quote #1

Majid gave me a brief dazzling golden stare and then half - lidded his eyes again. I know when my life is being threatened Picture Quote #1

You can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel Picture Quote #1

I am hurt... in ways you cannot see, and that I cannot explain, even to myself, but only know that they are there, and a part of me, as much as my hands and eyes and breath are a part of me Picture Quote #1

He vaguely desired to walk around and around the body and stare; the impulse of the living to try to read in dead eyes the answer to the question Picture Quote #1

The point is that most of what we currently hold sacred is not sacred for any reason other than that it was thought sacred yesterday Picture Quote #1

When I met your father, it was magic. Not for him - not then - but for me. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can look into a pair of eyes and see your whole future Picture Quote #1
