I’ve occasionally been wrong about certain things, which is in a way more delightful than being right Picture Quote #1

We walked for some time, and grew to know each other, as best as we’d allow. These are some of the high points. They lack continuity. I don’t apologize. I merely pointed it out, adding with some truth, I feel, that most liaisons lack continuity. We find ourselves in odd places at various times, and for a brief span we link our lives to others and then, our time elapsed, we move apart. Through a haze of pain occasionally, usually through a veil of memory that clings, then passes, sometimes as though we have never touched Picture Quote #1

Not going back is fine. Not going back but occasionally visiting might be best. Not going back but remembering so you don’t see the same view twice. Not going back so you can turn a new page, write a new chapter, develop an entire new list. Not going back so you can stretch and grow and see yourself in a light that you never knew existed. Not going back so that you can fly. Fly Picture Quote #1

The sea’s only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don’t know much about the sea, but I do know that that’s the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head Picture Quote #1

You know what I think? I think that if a young woman doesn’t engage in the act of occasionally wishing on a star or a flower or a birthday cake full of candles, then we’re forfeiting one of the sweetest whimsies of our youth Picture Quote #1

Black is the absence of all color. White is the presence of all colors. I suppose life must be one or the other. On the whole, though, I think I would prefer color to its absence. But then black does add depth and texture to color. Perhaps certain shades of gray are necessary to a complete palette. Even unrelieved black. Ah, a deep philosophical question. Is black necessary to life, even a happy life? Could we ever be happy if we did not at least occasionally experience misery? Picture Quote #1

Occasionally we all do wrong things from right motives. Only time can prove us right or wrong. The past is the past. Nothing can change it now, and who is to say that it was all wrong, anyway? Picture Quote #1

It was completely fruitless to quarrel with the world, whereas the quarrel with oneself was occasionally fruitful and always, she had to admit, interesting Picture Quote #1

And sometimes in life, I imagine, good things do happen. Most of the time, it’s the opposite, obviously. But I don’t think you should rule out the possibility that just occasionally chance might deal you a good card Picture Quote #1

Sometimes my whole life seems like a dream; occasionally I think that someone else has lived it for me. The events and the sensations, the stories and the things that make me what I am in the eyes of other people, the list of facts that make my life... They could be mine, they might be yours Picture Quote #1

Was life always like that? she wondered. A game of hide and seek in which you only occasionally found the person you wanted to be? Picture Quote #1

... nothing could be more pleasant than to live in solitude, enjoy the spectacle of nature, and occasionally read some book Picture Quote #1

I was always acting primarily with shareholder interests in mind.It’s also true I’ve always had a fairly moralistic attitude to business, and would not do anything that I considered improper.As a consequence, I have occasionally pursued issues during my career that other people might have avoided Picture Quote #1

When I am halfway there with a painting, it can occasionally be thrilling... But it happens very rarely; usually it’s agony... I go to great pains to mask the agony. But the struggle is there. It’s the invisible enemy Picture Quote #1

He who works with the door open gets all kinds of interruptions, but he also occasionally gets clues as to what the world is and what might be important Picture Quote #1

I occasionally get birthday cards from fans. But it’s often the same message: They hope it’s my last Picture Quote #1

In playing ball, and in life, a person occasionally gets the opportunity to do something great. When that time comes, only two things matter: being prepared to seize the moment and having the courage to take your best swing Picture Quote #1
