Text Quotes
Only when a woman decides not to have children, can a woman live like a man. That's what I've done  (Like Quotes) Alexander of Whitby taught that the universe is like a tapestry only parts of which are visible to us at a time. After we are dead, we will see the whole and then it will be clear to us how the different parts relate to each other  (Like Quotes) If we are peaceful, if we are happy, we can smile and blossom like a flower, and everyone in our family, our entire society, will benefit from our peace  (Like Quotes) The country is like a great sponge-it finally absorbs you. Eventually you will get malaria or you will get dysentery and whatever you do, if you don't keep doing it, the jungle will grow over you. Black or white, you've got to fight it every minute of the day  (Like Quotes) The land is all too shallow it is painted on the sky and trembles like the wind-shook rain when the raven king passed by  (Like Quotes) It was an old fashioned house - the sort of house in fact, as Strange expressed it, which a lady in a novel might like to be persecuted in  (Like Quotes) The old King is dead. The new King approaches! And at his approach the world sheds its sorrow. The sings of the old King dissolve like morning mist! The world assumes the character of the new. His virtues fill up the wood and world!  (Like Quotes) All these details took but a moment to apprehend yet the impression made upon Mr. Segundus by the two ladies was unusually vivid - almost supernaturally so - like images in a delirium. A queer shock thrilled through his whole being his senses were overwhelmed and he fainted away  (Like Quotes) Faith is the least self-regarding of the virtues. It is by its very nature scarcely conscious of its own existence. Like the eye which sees everything in front of it and never sees itself, faith is occupied with the Object upon which it rests and pays no attention to itself at all  (Like Quotes) He hardly ever spoke of magic, and when he did it was like a history lesson and no one could bear to listen to him  (Like Quotes) Death cannot be avoided forever, but it can be postponed - in that respect it's very like the washing up  (Like Quotes) They turned their attention to the wardrobe that held several Armani suits, all of them individually tailored to fit Humpty's unique stature and held up on hangers shaped like hula hoops  (Like Quotes) My greatest strength is common sense. I'm really a standard brand - like Campbell's tomato soup or Baker's chocolate  (Like Quotes) Bowden Cable is the sort of honest and dependable operative that is the backbone of SpecOps. They never win commendations or medals and the public has no knowledge of them at all. They are all worth ten of people like me  (Like Quotes) Ill-fitting grammar are like ill-fitting shoes. You can get used to it for a bit, but then one day your toes fall off and you can't walk to the bathroom  (Like Quotes) I had once remarked to Feely that, because of the oxygen, breathing fresh air was like breathing God, but she had slapped my face and told me I was being blasphemous  (Like Quotes) She wasn't the only one to be physically morphed by reader expectation. Miss Havisham was now elderly whether she liked it or not, and Sherlock Holmes wore a deerstalker and smoked a ridiculously large pipe. The problem wasn't just confined to the classics. Harry Potter was seriously pissed off that he'd have to spend the rest of life looking like Daniel Radcliffe  (Like Quotes) In these waters, I was well in over my head, but still, determined to swim like a dog tossed off the end of a pier  (Like Quotes) I would just like to mention Robert Houdin who in the eighteenth century invented the vanishing birdcage trick and the theater matinee - may he rot and perish. Good afternoon  (Like Quotes) [Response when asked which film directors he most admired:] I like the old masters, by which I mean John Ford, John Ford, and John Ford  (Like Quotes) But you can't emphasize beef, that's like his wanting me to emphasize in before July! Come on, fellows, you're losing your heads! I wouldn't direct any living actor like this in Shakespeare! The way you do this, it's impossible!  (Like Quotes) Personally, I don't like a girlfriend to have a husband. If she'll fool her husband, I figure she'll fool me  (Like Quotes) Now, if faith is the gaze of the heart at God, and if this gaze is but the raising of the inward eyes to meet the all-seeing eyes of God, then it follows that it is one of the easiest things possible to do. It would be like God to make the most vital thing easy and place it within the range of possibility for the weakest and poorest of us  (Like Quotes) The sweater didn't fit me, of course. Even with the sleeves rolled up I looked like a baggy monkey picking bananas. But to my way of thinking, at least in winter, woolly warmth trumps freezing fashion any day of the week  (Like Quotes) Was sorrow, in the end, a private thing? A closed container? Something that, like a bucket of water, could be borne only on a single pair of shoulders?  (Like Quotes) Scientific thought - indeed, any mode of thought, whether it be religious or philosophical or anything else - is just like the fashions that we wear - only much longer lived. It's a little like a boy band  (Like Quotes) I didn't set out to discover a truth. I was actually sent to the Outer Fringes to conduct a chair census and learn some humility. But the truth inevitably found me, as important truths often do, like a lost thought in need of a mind  (Like Quotes) Perhaps, I thought, whenever we began to breathe the breath of others, when the spinning atoms of their bodies began to mingle withour own, we took on something of their personality, like crystals in a snowflake. Perhaps we became something more, yet something lesser than ourselves  (Like Quotes) I suddenly wondered whether Mother might not actually be happy now, whether the sensation of happiness might not be something like faintly glittering gold sunken at the bottom of the river of sorrow. The feeling of that strange pale light when once on as exceeded all the bounds of unhappiness - if that can be called a sensation of happiness, the Emperor, my mother, and even I myself may be said to be happy now  (Like Quotes) Trying to be happy without a sense of God's presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun  (Like Quotes)
