Getting Close Quotes

I didn’t want anyone getting close to me. I pushed people away. Built a wall around my heart to keep them out. I let one person take down the bricks, and I suppose it was a good idea, but, sometimes, he hurts me too. And it hurts so much worse then any other hurt I’ve felt because he is one of the very few that matter anymore Picture Quote #1

Was I being groomed for some special mission? What possible purpose could an existence like mine serve? When I wasn’t drinking in crappy bars, I was home by myself reading: a life that was achingly lonely, and yet perversely designed to prevent anybody from ever getting close enough to really know me Picture Quote #1

I started writing by doing small related things but not the thing itself, circling it and getting closer. I had no idea how to write fiction. So I did journalism because there were rules I could learn. You can teach someone to write a news story. They might not write a great one, but you can teach that pretty easily Picture Quote #1

When objects shattered into fragments appeared in my painting about 1909, this for me was a way of getting closest to the object... Fragmentation helped me to establish space and movement in space Picture Quote #1

There seems to be a hypnotic quality to ambition and speed, so that you feel that you are standing still just because you want to go so fast. You might actually be getting close to your goal Picture Quote #1

Art is the ideal medium for making contact with the transcendental, or at least for getting close to it Picture Quote #1

We seem to be getting closer and closer to a situation where nobody is responsible for what they did but we are all responsible for what somebody else did Picture Quote #1

The terrain is thinner, the vegetation is greener, that’s a good sign we’re getting close to the coast Picture Quote #1

Every breath you take, you are getting closer to the grave. But every breath you take, you can also get closer to your liberation Picture Quote #1

Throughout his presidency, clinton made a point of getting close - physically and emotionally - to the people whose problems his administration was working to solve Picture Quote #1

I was about 6 or 7, I would have said I wanted to be an actor and an artist. And that just kind of kept honing itself around film and getting closer to film Picture Quote #1
