Text Quotes
We want to see the newest things. That is because we want to see the future, even if only momentarily. It is the moment in which, even if we don’t completely understand what we have glimpsed, we are nonetheless touched by it. This is what we have come to call art  (If Only Quotes) O was infinitely more moving when her body was covered with marks, of whatever kind, if only because these marks made it impossible for her to cheat and immediately proclaimed, the moment they were seen, that anything went as far as she was concerned. For to know this was one thing, but to see the proof of it, and to see the proof constantly renewed, was quite another  (If Only Quotes) In passing, I firmly believe that research should be offset by a certain amount of teaching, if only as a change from the agony of research. The trouble, however, I freely admit, is that in practice you get either no teaching, or else far too much  (If Only Quotes) Nothing seems real anymore. Even the flames from the fire seem to beckon to me, drawing me into some great past life buried somewhere deep in my subconscious, if only I could find the key.. if only.. if only. Ever since my illness, my condition, I’ve been trying to find some logical way of passing my time, of justifying a means to an end  (If Only Quotes) If knowing the truth is sufficient for you, then practice the art of philosophy. If only living the truth will suffice, then practice the art of love through your mind, your emotions, and your body  (If Only Quotes) I always think out a problem as clearly as possible, and then act on it. My theory has always been to get started. The moment I get an idea I act upon it. If only people would act on more of their ideas, I am convinced they would lead more interesting lives  (If Only Quotes) If only more of today’s military personnel would realize that they are being used by the owning elite’s as a publicly subsidized capitalist goon squad  (If Only Quotes) We’re a strange animal, so often destroying what we love for selfish ends, and yet tantalized by the sense that there are other choices if only we had strength to make them. In the politics of 400 years ago, we find the same questions we battle with today  (If Only Quotes) Everything felt fragile and freshly come upon, but for now, at least, my depression had stepped back, giving me room to move forward. I had forgotten what it was like to be without it, and for a moment I floundered, wondering how I would recognize myself. I knew for certain it would return, sneaking up on me when I wasn’t looking, but meanwhile there were bound to be glimpses of light if only I stayed around and held fast to the long perspective. It was a chance that seemed worth taking  (If Only Quotes) The way I played music there was the way I wanted to farm, chop wood, cook, make love, raise children. Everything. A lo of it had to do with things I felt while I played. If only I could feel that sense of total absorption in what I was doing when I was doing other things. It was more than absorption, it was spontaneity, competence, a sense of grace and playfulness, of being in touch with an inexhaustible source of energy and beauty  (If Only Quotes) If you keep on eating unhealthy food than no matter how many weight loss tips you follow, you are likely to retain weight and become obese. If only you start eating healthy food, you will be pleasantly surprised how easy it is to lose weight  (If Only Quotes) Writing down your thoughts is both necessary and harmful. It leads to eccentricity, narcissism, preserves what should be let go. On the other hand, these notes intensify the inner life, which, left unexpressed, slips through your fingers. If only I could find a better kind of journal, humbler, one that would preserve the same thoughts, the same flesh of life, which is worth saving  (If Only Quotes) I have found that in fiction one is freer to speak the truth, if only because in fiction the truth is not expected or required. You may easily disguise it, so that it is only recognized much later, when the story and the characters have faded into darkness  (If Only Quotes) Everyone should read, we say, but we act as if only those with special talent should write  (If Only Quotes) The art of good teaching begins when we can answer the questions our students are really trying to ask us, if only they knew how to do so  (If Only Quotes) Life is energy, and energy is creativity. And even when individuals pass on, the energy is retained in the work of art, locked in it and awaiting release if only someone will take the time and the care to unlock it  (If Only Quotes) If only we knew what was happening when we pray, we would never cease to pray  (If Only Quotes) If only we correct our eating habits than not only we would have perfect body weight but also we can get rid of most of the diseases  (If Only Quotes) If you attack a mathematical problem directly, very often you come to a dead end, nothing you do seems to work and you feel that if only you could peer round the corner there might be an easy solution. There is nothing like having somebody else beside you, because he can usually peer round the corner  (If Only Quotes) Sex, like art, can unsettle a soul, can grind a heart in a mortar. Sex, like literature, can sneak the other within one’s wall, even if only for a moment, a moment before one immures oneself again  (If Only Quotes) The desire to see and the desire to ratify what one has seen are desires at odds with one another, if only because they proceed from separate places in the imagination  (If Only Quotes) If only a small fraction of what is already known about the effects of sugar were to be revealed in relation to any other material used as a food additive, that material would promptly be banned  (If Only Quotes) Can you blame me if I am pursued by the thought of how much we could do to remedy social evils, if only we had an honest and disinterested press?  (If Only Quotes) If only 50 or more people were doing for the country what I have been doing, there would not be a pay freeze or a balance of payments problem  (If Only Quotes) Sometimes I have wished my insults were slaps or lashes; I’ve wanted to hit people in the face and make them see, if only for a day, what I see each day I help people  (If Only Quotes) It is a marvellous thing to be physically a woman if only to know the marvels of a man  (If Only Quotes) If only you could pack up everything you love, and everyone who’d ever been your friend  (If Only Quotes) How do you create chemistry? If only I knew that! Some people say it’s a natural thing that you have with someone, and maybe it is to do with that, but I think you can work on it  (If Only Quotes) I wanna be with you, if only for a night to be the one who’s in your arms to hold you tight. I wanna be with you, there’s nothing left to say  (If Only Quotes) A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. If only you could love enough you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world  (If Only Quotes)
