How It Was Quotes

How easy it was to lie when one had to lie! Picture Quote #1

Maybe that was how it was with all first loves. They own a little piece of your heart, always Picture Quote #1

We loved, sir - used to meet: How sad and bad and mad it was - But then, how it was sweet! Picture Quote #1

It’s difficult for me to understand how it was possible to live under the Bush regime for eight years and then just roll over and do other things Picture Quote #1

I know parts of all the decades come in and out of fashion, but you never get to wear an entire outfit exactly how it was Picture Quote #1

Later, hiding in the latrine from the black boys, I’d take a look at my own self in the mirror and wonder how it was possible that anybody could manage such an enormous thing as being what he was Picture Quote #1

These days you might feel a shaft of light make its way across your face and when you do you’ll know how it was meant to be see the signs and know their meaning Picture Quote #1

I thought we were making a nice little movie. That’s how it was regarded by everyone else, too Picture Quote #1

I cannot life for life itself: but for the words which stay the flux. My life, I feel, will not be lived until there are books and stories which relive it perpetually in time. I forget too easily how it was, and shrink to the horror of the here and now, with no past and no future. Writing breaks open the vaults of the dead and the skies behind which the prophesying angels hide. The mind makes and makes, spinning its web Picture Quote #1

The nature of the labyrinth, I scribbled into my spiral notebook, and the way out of it. This teacher rocked. I hated discussion classes. I hated talking, and I hated listening to everyone else stumble on their words and try to phrase things in the vaguest possible way so they wouldn’t sound dumb, and I hated how it was all just a game of trying to figure out what the teacher wanted to hear and then saying it. I’m in class, so teach me Picture Quote #1

As long as I was alive, I was something. That was just how it was. But somewhere along the way it all changed. Living turned me into nothing Picture Quote #1

My parents had a wonderful marriage, but it was a very dependent relationship. My mother was entirely dependent on my father because that’s how it was in those days Picture Quote #1

It was unexpected. That’s just how it was. I don’t believe they were faster than us. I don’t believe they had more heart or dedication. It just fell on their side. That’s the reality of it Picture Quote #1

I know this sounds weird, but getting hurt was one of the best things that ever happened to me. It really gave me a different perspective. Before, everything was going how it was supposed to be and I wasn’t really appreciative of what I was doing and what it took to be there. The injury grounded me in a lot of different ways. The rehab process makes you stronger on all fronts, mentally and physically. I feel stronger and a better person for it. I would never wish it on anyone, but I don’t wish I could take it back Picture Quote #1

Suddenly he saw himself as others in the crowd must surely see him; a silent, solitary figure, standing apart from the rest. He looked out at the hoardes of singing, laughing people and felt more alone than he’d ever felt in his life. Was this how it was going to be then? Was this who he was? A man apart from his fellows, making the journey through life alone? Picture Quote #1

She thought about how it was so simple with animals. They gave their hearts without question or fear. They had no expectations. They were so easy to love. If people could only be like that, no one would ever be hurt, she thought. No one would ever need to learn how to forgive Picture Quote #1

Remember how it was when we kissed? Armfuls and armfuls of light thrown right at us. A rope dropping down from the sky. How can the word love and the word life even fit in the mouth? Picture Quote #1

Our lives preserved. How it was; and how it be. Passing it along in the relay. That is what I work to do: to produce stories that save our lives Picture Quote #1

Nowledge which... transcends the bounds, the prejudices and prejudgements of any one society and culture is not an illusion but, on the contrary, a glorious and luminous reality. Just how it was achieved remains subject to debate Picture Quote #1

I learned, too, how it was possible with the help of the picture and action to transform an apparently insignificant violin passage into an incident, and to lift a simple horn call into a thing of stupendous significance by means of scenic emphasis Picture Quote #1

A neighborhood friend showed me how it was possible to go to a camera shop and pick up chemicals for pennies... literally... and develop your own film and make prints Picture Quote #1

To lose a child... was something that could end one’s world. One could never get back to how it was before. The stars went out. The moon disappeared. The birds became silent Picture Quote #1

A novel is like a sausage. You might like the final taste but you don’t want to see how it was made Picture Quote #1

My play Safe Sex was picked apart because critics thought it was untrue. It was a play in which no one had AIDS, but the characters talked about how it was going to change their lives Picture Quote #1

I like today and perhaps a little future still, but the past is really something I'm not interested in. So, as far as I'm concerned, I like only the past of things and people I don't know. When I know, I don't care because I knew how it was Picture Quote #1

I'm dog sitting for friends. They asked how it was going so I sent them this. Day nine of abandonment: I have forgotten my previous masters and have sworn myself to a new one Picture Quote #1

I first got involved with ending world hunger, and I got hip to the facts about it - what a huge problem it was and how it wasn't a matter of not having food or not knowing how to end it, but it was a matter of creating the political will Picture Quote #1

I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn't even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then Picture Quote #1
