You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way. Doris Lessing quotes I don't know much about creative writing programs.

Doris Lessing quotes Crude classifications and false generalizations are the curse of organized life. George Bernard Shaw quotes Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards. Soren Kierkegaard quotes True love never dies for it is lust that fades away. Love bonds for a lifetime but lust just pushes away. Alicia Barnhart quotes 'Tisn't life that matters! 'Tis the courage you bring to it. Hugh Walpole, Sr. quotes The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase.

Hugh Walpole, Sr. quotes It is not in giving life but in risking life that man is raised above the animal; that is why superiority has been accorded in humanity not to the sex that brings forth but to that which kills. Simone de Beauvoir quotes And this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything. William Shakespeare quotes |
