I’d always thought that my awkwardness was a thin veil disguising the real me. The me that was funny and could write songs that touched people. The me that would one day find some beautiful, intelligent boy who’d recognize me as his soul mate. The me who was secretly pretty and stylish if only someone would lift the veil and see. But I was beginning to suspect that underneath the awkwardness there was just more awkwardness and not much else. And that would explain why I stood in a room full of people and felt like the loneliest girl in the world Picture Quote #1

Machiavelli’s teaching would hardly have stood the test of Parliamentary government, for public discussion demands at least the profession of good faith Picture Quote #1

Then we rushed on into the captain’s cabin... and there he lay... While the chaplain stood, with a smoking pistol in his hand Picture Quote #1

The only day I remember of my parents' marriage was the day my dad walked out. As I stood there at five years old, with my older sister and younger brother, I knew that he was gone Picture Quote #1

He made little, too little of sacraments and priests, because God was so intensely real to him. What should he do with lenses who stood thus full in the torrent of the sunshine Picture Quote #1

I've often stood silent at a party for hours listening to my movie idols turn into dull and little people Picture Quote #1

How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live Picture Quote #1

I stood still, a prey to a thousand thoughts, stifled in the robe of the evening Picture Quote #1

I stand on this rostrum with a sense of deep humility and great pride - humility in the weight of those great American architects of our history who have stood here before me; pride in the reflection that this home of legislative debate represents human liberty in the purest form yet devised Picture Quote #1

What forests of laurel we bring, and the tears of mankind, to those who stood firm against the opinion of their contemporaries! Picture Quote #1

By the rude bridge that arched the flood, their flag to April's breeze unfurl'd; here once the embattl'd farmers stood, and fired the shot heard round the world Picture Quote #1

If you stood up and told the truth in the wrong way, it was not true any longer, though it might be as powerful as ever Picture Quote #1

Your heart is like a great river after a long spell of rain, spilling over its banks. All signposts that once stood on the ground are gone, inundated and carried away by that rush of water. And still the rain beats down on the surface of the river. Every time you see a flood like that on the news you tell yourself: That’s it. That’s my heart Picture Quote #1

Rude contact with facts chased my visions and dreams quickly away, and in their stead I beheld the horrors, the corruption, the evils and hypocrisy of society, and as I stood among them, a young wife, a great wail of agony went out from my soul Picture Quote #1

He lacked tenderness; he was rude; and he had more than a streak of cruelty in him; he was a thief and a liar. He stood for everything she feared and hated and despised; but she knew she could love him... This was no choice made with the mind 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

I should have said something... But my mouth wouldn’t open, and the longer I stood there in silence, the better I can to understand the problem. It wasn’t that I had nothing to say to him. It was that I had too much to say Picture Quote #1

I watch the ashes swim around like dandelion puffs, making swirls where bodies and walls once stood Picture Quote #1

In every block of marble I see a statue as plain as though it stood before me, shaped and perfect in attitude and action. I have only to hew away the rough walls that imprison the lovely apparition to reveal it to the other eyes as mine see it Picture Quote #1

If you don’t have any enemies in life you have never stood up for anything Picture Quote #1
