Text Quotes
In a way fighting was just like using magic. You said the words, and they altered the universe. By merely speaking you could create damage and pain, cause tears to fall, drive people away, make yourself feel better, make your life worse  (About Yourself Quotes) You’re going to spend more time with yourself than with anyone else in your life. You want to spend that whole time fighting who you are?  (About Yourself Quotes) I would have gone too but I wanted to come straight back to you.I kept thinking of you, waiting here, all by yourself, not knowing what was going to happen  (About Yourself Quotes) Venture too far for love, she tells herself, and you renounce citizenship in the country you’ve made for yourself  (About Yourself Quotes) If by now you’re a little confused, don’t be too hard on yourself. Life is confusing, and anyone who claims that she has all the answers has probably uncovered the wrong ones  (About Yourself Quotes) Girls don’t fight fair. They pull your hair and gauge you and pinch you; then they run off gasping to mommy when you try and defend yourself with a fist. Then you get locked into time out, and for what? No, my friend, the secret is, don’t snap at the bait. Let it dangle. Swim around it. Laugh it off. After a while they’ve given up and try to lure someone else  (About Yourself Quotes) If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong  (About Yourself Quotes) Belief isn’t supposed to make sense, at least not all the time. In that, it finds its power. It gets to creep up on you and carry you forward. Until you can carry yourself again  (About Yourself Quotes) Waking, after all, was an almost natal state. You surfaced without history, then spent the blinks and yawns reassembling your past, shuffling the shards into chronological order before fortifying yourself for the present  (About Yourself Quotes) Sometimes it’s the toughest moments that you learn the most about yourself, and the more you know yourself, the less you are willing to give away  (About Yourself Quotes) If you should find yourself in a place that is indifferent to you and there is someone there that your spirit stretches to, then that person is kin  (About Yourself Quotes) It is dreadful when something weighs on your mind, not to have a soul to unburden yourself to. You know what I mean. I tell my piano the things I used to tell you  (About Yourself Quotes) A story is like something you wind out of yourself. Like a spider, it is a web you weave, and you love your story like a child  (About Yourself Quotes) Death, of course, is a refuge. It’s where you go when a new name, or a mask and cape, can no longer hide you from yourself. It’s where you run to when none of the principalities of your conscience will grant you asylum  (About Yourself Quotes) Open a book this minute and start reading. Don’t move until you’ve reached page fifty. Until you’ve buried your thoughts in print. Cover yourself with words. Wash yourself away. Dissolve  (About Yourself Quotes) Books mean all possibilities. They mean moving out of yourself, losing yourself, dying of thirst and living to your full. They mean everything  (About Yourself Quotes) If you had a person in your life treating you the way you treat yourself, you would have gotten rid of them a long time ago  (About Yourself Quotes) Most people feel best about their work the week before their vacation, but it’s not because of the vacation itself. What do you do the last week before you leave on a big trip? You clean up, close up, clarify, and renegotiate all your agreements with yourself and others. I just suggest that you do this weekly instead of yearly  (About Yourself Quotes) If you’re frightened of damaging yourself, you increase the risk of doing just that. Consider the tightrope walker. Do you think he spares any thought for falling while he’s walking the rope? No, he accepts the risk, and enjoys the thrill of braving the danger. If you spend your whole life being careful not to break anything, you’ll get terribly bored, you know... I can’t think of anything more fun than being impulsive  (About Yourself Quotes) Some days I think she was really miserable, because she cried a lot. In a way, I’d had to steel my heart to her crying. You need to steel yourself to a lot of things when someone in your family is really sick  (About Yourself Quotes) I want your innocence. I want your blind, unquestioning devotion to your father, your acceptance of who and what he is. I want you to look at me the way you look at him, knowing the worst. I want you to trust me, even when your brain tells you you shouldn’t, I want you to ignore common sense and your lifelong need to protect yourself. I want you to give yourself to me, body and soul  (About Yourself Quotes) When you wept it was just over yourself and not because of the marvelous impossibility of reaching her through the difference that separates you  (About Yourself Quotes) To be anorexic... she thought, amounted to wanting to shed yourself of some of the imperfect mosaic of pieces that made you who you were. She could understand that now for, maybe underneath that desquamated self you would locate a new version  (About Yourself Quotes) Remember, there are more people in the world than yourself. Be modest! You have not yet invented nor thought anything which others have not thought or invented before. And should you really have done so, consider it a gift of heaven which you are to share with others  (About Yourself Quotes) Life is, to some extent, an extended dialogue with your future self about how exactly you are going to let yourself down over the coming years  (About Yourself Quotes) How do you convince someone to change, to stop being afraid of himself? How do you convince yourself not to be so scared all the time?  (About Yourself Quotes) Even if you yourself were unhappy and anxious, whenever you glimpsed happiness in your child, you suddenly became happy too  (About Yourself Quotes) So this was it. You take a wrong step and you end up wearing yesterday’s underwear, sitting on the carpet trying to teach yourself how to knit. And even that doesn’t work. She never expected it to be so hard. Life  (About Yourself Quotes) Be hated. One does not have to be evil to be hated. In fact, it’s often the case that one is hated precisely because one is trying to do right by one’s own convictions. It is far too easy to be liked, one merely has to be accommodating and hold no strong convictions. Then one will gravitate towards the centre and settle into the average. That cannot be your role. There are a great many bad people in the world, and if you are not offending them, you must be bad yourself  (About Yourself Quotes) When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing out there. When you reach deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the opposite direction. If you reach in both directions, you will have spanned the universe  (About Yourself Quotes)
