Back Quotes

Look back, and smile on perils past Picture Quote #1

Television has brought back murder into the home - where it belongs Picture Quote #1

Lead from the back and let others believe they are in front Picture Quote #1

Life can be found only in the present moment. The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life Picture Quote #1

When you say something really unkind, when you do something in retaliation your anger increases. You make the other person suffer, and he will try hard to say or to do something back to get relief from his suffering. That is how conflict escalates Picture Quote #1

I had long ago discovered that when a word or formula refused to come to mind the best thing for it was to think of something else: tigers for instance or oatmeal. Then when the fugitive word was least expecting it I would suddenly turn the full blaze of my attention back onto it catching the culprit in the beam of my mental torch before it could sneak off again into the darkness Picture Quote #1

Junk turns the user into a plant. Plants do not feel pain since pain has no function in a stationary organism. Junk is a pain killer. A plant has no libido in the human or animal sense. Junk replaces the sex drive. Seeding is the sex of the plant and the function of opium is to delay seeding. Perhaps the intense discomfort of withdrawal is the transition from plant back to animal, from a painless, sexless, timeless state back to sex and pain and time, from death back to life Picture Quote #1

The men stood back, chanting a song of one who would not be forgotten, of loved ones lost and returned to the earth, and of the land itself which does not die but is always born anew with each fall of the long rains. They chanted of life, which is short as a spear of summer grass or long as the heart of the Rift itself, and of the silent land that waits beyond Picture Quote #1

All that ever holds somebody back, I think, is fear. For a minute I had fear. [Then] I went into the [dressing] room and shot my fear in the face Picture Quote #1

Most of American life is driving somewhere and then driving back wondering why the hell you went Picture Quote #1

A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is a woman he turns her back again Picture Quote #1

All rivers run full to the sea; those who are apart are brought together; the lost ones are redeemed; the dead come back to life; the perfectly blue days that have begun and ended in golden dimness continue, immobile and accessible; and, when all is perceived in such a way as to obviate time, justice becomes apparent not as something that will be, but something that is Picture Quote #1

I'd rather look back on my life and say

Oh, give me back the good old days of fifty years ago,

Faced with crisis, the man of character falls back on himself. He imposes his own stamp of action, takes responsibility for it, makes it his own Picture Quote #1

It is curious how there seems to be an instinctive disgust in man for his nearest ancestors and relations. If only Darwin could conscientiously have traced man back to the elephant or the lion or the antelope, how much ridicule and prejudice would have been spared to the doctrine of evolution Picture Quote #1

One can pay back the loan of gold, but one lies forever in debt to those who are kind Picture Quote #1

If power is for sale, sell your mother to buy it. You can always buy her back again Picture Quote #1

Four things come not back. The spoken word, the sped arrow, the past life, and the neglected opportunity Picture Quote #1

One has fear in front of a goat, in back of a mule, and on every side of a fool Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you've got to let him go. If you lucky, he'll come back, but if not, you can make it through Picture Quote #1

Pay attention to the friends that help you when you're down, so you know who to ignore when you get back up Picture Quote #1

With lies you may get ahead in the world - but you can never go back Picture Quote #1

Opera is where a guy gets stabbed in the back, and instead of dying, he sings Picture Quote #1

Life is too long to be good at C – if you had spent all that time to become good at it, you would essentially have to work with it, too, to get back the costs, and that would just be some long, drawn-out torture Picture Quote #1

We have given away far too many freedoms in order to be free. Now it's time to take some back Picture Quote #1

Remember Graham Green's dictum that childhood is the bank balance of the writer? I think that all writers feel alienated. Most of us go back to an alienated childhood in some way or another. I know that I do Picture Quote #1

Sure, call me any ugly name you choose - The steel of freedom does not stain. From those who live like leeches on the people's lives, We must take back our land again, America! Picture Quote #1
