Text Quotes
Most people I know live their lives moving in a constant forward direction, the whole time looking backward  (Backward Quotes) I loved you backward and forward in time. I loved you beyond boundaries of time and space  (Backward Quotes) To me it’s a question of being able to look backward and give the present a root... To give meaning to where we are today, we need to look at where we have come from  (Backward Quotes) All men were made brothers. The earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it. You might as well expect the rivers to run backward as that any man who was born free should be content when penned up and denied liberty to go where he pleases  (Backward Quotes) Choices, more choices than we like afterward to believe, are made far backward in the innocence of childhood  (Backward Quotes) Russia on its path has oftentimes discussed and overdiscussed what had happened earlier, instead of moving forward. The result is always the same: It is very difficult to move forward when you’re looking backward  (Backward Quotes) Its at night, when perhaps we should be dreaming, that the mind is most clear, that we are most able to hold all our life in the palm of our skull. I don’t know if anyone has ever pointed out that great attraction of insomnia before, but it is so; the night seems to release a little more of our vast backward inheritance of instincts and feelings; as with the dawn, a little honey is allowed to ooze between the lips of the sandwich, a little of the stuff of dreams to drip into the waking mind  (Backward Quotes) While our bodies move ever forward on the time line, our minds continuously trace backward, seeking shape and meaning as deftly as any arrow seeking its mark  (Backward Quotes) I was thinking about time, how on a movie set the shot is maintained in the same time no matter how many takes and hours pass. Reflectors and lights are added, footprints are smoothed away, so that there are no telltale clues as the day wears on. When the shot is finished and the plugs are pulled, time seems to leap forward in a matter of seconds. Perhaps making movies is a step toward being able to move backward and forward and in and out of linear time  (Backward Quotes) Perhaps making movies is a step toward being able to move backward and forward and in and out of linear time  (Backward Quotes) I am not an adult, that’s my explanation of myself. Except when I am working on a set, I have all the inhibitions and shyness of the bashful, backward child, unless I have something very much in common with a person, I am lost. I am swallowed up in my own silence  (Backward Quotes) You know, once you’ve had that guitar up so loud on the stage, where you can lean back and volume will stop you from falling backward, that’s a hard drug to kick  (Backward Quotes) There is a time in the life of every boy when he for the first time takes the backward view of life. Perhaps that is the moment when he crosses the line into manhood  (Backward Quotes) Aren’t you ashamed, you who walk backward along the whole path of existence, and blame me for walking backward along the path of the promenade?  (Backward Quotes) I think... that philosophy has the duty of pointing out the falsity of outworn religious ideas, however estimable they may be as a form of art. We cannot act as if all religion were poetry while the greater part of it still functions in its ancient guise of illicit science and backward morals  (Backward Quotes) We know that an object that is not consciously noticed at the time of a first visit can, by its absence during subsequent visits, provoke an indefinable impression: as a result of this sighting backward in time, the absence of the object becomes a presence one can feel  (Backward Quotes) Floating in the void free of gravity I made my way along the side of the ship. I listened to my own breaths. It was so dark and I was so weightless that I had to look for my bubbles to be sure which way was up. I swam backward a little away from the boat and into outer space and waved my arm through the water. Sure enough the phosphorescents appeared trailing my movement like the tail of a shooting star. I let myself tip upside down and floated there watching the gentle snowstorm marveling that a world of such strangeness existed here all the time just under the surface  (Backward Quotes) Going back to a simpler life based on living by sufficiency rather than excess is not a step backward. Rather, returning to a simpler way allows us to regain our dignity, puts us in touch with the land, and makes us value human contact again  (Backward Quotes) I still can’t believe that some pseudocritics continue to accuse me of having murdered tango. They have it backward. They should look at me as the saviour of tango. I performed plastic surgery on it  (Backward Quotes) Every day you reinvent yourself. You’re always in motion. But you decide every day: forward or backward  (Backward Quotes) Ka is a wheel; its one purpose is to turn. The spin of ka always brings us back to the same place, to face and reface our mistakes and defeats until we can learn from them. When we learn from the past, the wheel continues to move forward, towards growth and evolution. When we don’t, the wheel spins backward, and we are given another chance. If once more we squander the opportunity, the wheel continues its rotation towards devolution, or destruction  (Backward Quotes) Children do not grow up all of a piece; look for the child of seven, especially to take many backward glances at the way he has come, while bounds and leaps unevenly ahead in his growth  (Backward Quotes) Rowing is such a fine sport. Everyone goes backward, and the leader can see his opponents as they struggle in vain  (Backward Quotes) You can’t look forward and backward at the same time........ so I choose to look forward  (Backward Quotes) Can anything good come of a backward way of thinking like judging someone based on skin color? No way  (Backward Quotes) Ahead! Courage! In the spiritual life he who does not advance goes backward. It happens as with a boat which always must go ahead. If it stands still the wind will blow it back  (Backward Quotes) Be grateful simply for being alive. When you are grateful for life, pure and simple, your life becomes one you can be grateful for. That may strike you as circular or even backward logic, but your attitude really does have an effect on how things work out. When you can’t change your life any other way, you can still change your attitude. When you do, your life changes. You find more chances to love, and you will be surprised to see how much more love is returned to you  (Backward Quotes) My sudden, unforeseen capitulation had knocked me backward, and I had nothing to hold on to. My internal weather was eerily calm, as if in a tornado’s aftermath, birdsong, sunshine, supersaturated colors, wreckage all around, and myself, dazed and limping  (Backward Quotes) I felt held hostage by her illness and by the backward mental health system that once again was incapable of helping our family in crisis  (Backward Quotes) The only way we are going to reduce disease, is to go backward to the diets and lifestyles of our ancestors  (Backward Quotes)
