I think of my pile of old paperbacks, their pages gone wobbly, like they'd once belonged to the sea Picture Quote #1

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack Picture Quote #1

I wish my parents hadn't made me feel that how I looked was linked to how much they loved me. But I do also see how hard it must be to see your child pile on the pounds and trust they'll find their own way back to a healthy weight Picture Quote #1

I think the more yellows, the more lights, the better. It alerts everybody. I mean, I guess I’m always a little bit afraid when the yellow comes out, we all get out of it, that someone won’t notice it, pile into the back of you Picture Quote #1

If I get a script that’s set in the jungle it goes to the bottom of the pile because I don’t think the playgrounds are going to be very good there! I’m really aware of how lucky I am but I have the kind of job where I can bring my child to work Picture Quote #1

Unable to create a meaningful life for itself, the personality takes its own revenge: from the lower depths comes a regressive form of spontaneity: raw animality forms a counterpoise to the meaningless stimuli and the vicarious life to which the ordinary man is conditioned. Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food Picture Quote #1

Money is like manure. If you spread it around, it does a lot of good, but if you pile it up in one place, it stinks like hell Picture Quote #1

History can show you that it was one pile of bad stuff after another. It can also show you that there’s been tremendous progress in knowledge, behaviour, laws, civilisation. It cannot show you that there was a meaning behind it Picture Quote #1

I never pile a plate to the point where it overflows. I’d rather have a small plate with small portions and then get up for more if I’m still hungry Picture Quote #1

It’s not an old book, or a treasure map. Nope. Staring up at me was a pile of rocks Picture Quote #1

Few of them were to be trusted within reach of a trowel and a pile of bricks Picture Quote #1

Do not work primarily for money; do your duty to patients first and let the money follow; our life is short, we don’t live twice; the whirlwind will pick up the leaves and spin them, but then it will drop them and they will form a pile Picture Quote #1

I learned to pick up each piece, one at a time, from my pile of potential matches and try to fit it from any angle into the socket, then discard it and move on. Each failure is meaningless. It’s not me, it’s the pieces, and I have to, absolutely must, try each and every piece every possible way until I find one that fits. They aren’t failures, they’re steps, small bits of progress Picture Quote #1

Nancy, every place you go, it seems as if mysteries just pile up one after another Picture Quote #1

I seriously think I could have sat in the middle of the kitchen floor rubbing two sticks together over a pile of dynamite blocks and gasoline cans, and my parents would be oblivious, as long as I was keeping myself occupied Picture Quote #1

If you decide to just go with the flow, you’ll end up where the flow goes, which is usually downhill, often leading to a big pile of sludge and a life of unhappiness. You’ll end up doing what everyone else is doing Picture Quote #1

Humiliation, by the way, is a truly terrible emotion. It’s at the bottom of the pile Picture Quote #1

In a word, learning is decontextualized. We break ideas down into tiny pieces that bear no relation to the whole. We give students a brick of information, followed by another brick, followed by another brick, until they are graduated, at which point we assume they have a house. What they have is a pile of bricks, and they don’t have it for long Picture Quote #1

Time passes and I am still not through it. Grief isn’t something you get over. You live with it. You go on on with it lodged in you. Sometimes I feel like I have swallowed a pile of stones. Grief makes me heavy. It makes me slow. Even on days when I laugh a lot, or dance, or finish a project, or meet a deadline, or celebrate, or make love, it is there. Lodged deep inside of me Picture Quote #1

A man who has once looked with the archaeological eye will never see quite normally. He will be wounded by what other men call trifles. It is possible to refine the sense of time until an old shoe in the bunch grass or a pile of nineteenth century beer bottles in an abandoned mining town tolls in one’s head like a hall clock Picture Quote #1
