Too Much Quotes

I had to stop hoping so much that a ship would rescue me. I should not count on outside help. Survival had to start with me. In my experience, a castaway’s worst mistake is to hope too much and to do too little. Survival starts by paying attention to what is close at hand and immediate. To look out with idle hope is tantamount to dreaming one’s life away Picture Quote #1

I do not remember very many things from the inside out. I do not remember what it felt like to touch things, or how bathwater traveled over my skin. I did not like to be touched, but it was a strange dislike. I did not like to be touched because I craved it too much. I wanted to be held very tight so I would not break. Even now, when people lean down to touch me, or hug me, or put a hand on my shoulder, I hold my breath. I turn my face. I want to cry Picture Quote #1

I lacked some essential skill for attracting people, for giving and receiving love easily. It meant too much to me. I seemed to be driving away the people I most wanted. Finally I had realized that getting someone to love you was like trying to coax a bird to perch on your finger... it wouldn’t happen unless you stopped trying so hard Picture Quote #1

It is easier with the right person. A good test of a relationship is how well you both deal with challenges. If one person is more invested, it shows. If you’re with the wrong person, it feels like too much work. But if you’re unhappy more than you’re happy, it’s not the right relationship for you Picture Quote #1

Some people when they have taken too much and have been driven beyond the point of endurance, simply crumble and give up. There are others, though they are not many, who will for some reason always be unconquerable. You meet them in time of war and also in time of peace. They have an indomitable spirit and nothing, neither pain nor torture nor threat of death, will cause them to give up Picture Quote #1

Words like passion and ecstasy, we learn them but they stay flat on the page. Sometimes we try to turn them over, find out what’s on the other side, and everyone has a story to tell os a woman or a brothel or an opium night or a war. We fear it. We fear passion and laugh at too much love and those who love too much Picture Quote #1

I think togetherness is a very important ingredient to family life. It’s a cliche and we use it too much but I think for a husband and wife, the way to stay close is to do things together and share Picture Quote #1

Too much action with too little intent makes for wasteful exertion of energy and the confusion between movement and progress Picture Quote #1

We finally sat down and asked ourselves how much of our lives we wanted to give everybody. We had just given a little too much, and it started to become a burden Picture Quote #1

Don’t trust too much. Don’t love too much. Don’t hope too much. Because that “too much” can hurt you so much Picture Quote #1

To spend too much time in studies is sloth; to use them too much for ornament is affectation; to make judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of a scholar Picture Quote #1

Nothing destroys authority more than the unequal and untimely interchange of power stretched too far and relaxed too much Picture Quote #1

I think people are purists about what sketch comedy should be, and I think sometimes having too much fun can be a little annoying to some people Picture Quote #1

But looking back, the fact was that I had a couple of big hits too quickly and it was simply too much for an introvert like me to handle Picture Quote #1

I don’t very much enjoy looking at paintings in general. I know too much about them. I take them apart Picture Quote #1

Jealousy is like a hot pepper. Use it mildly, and you add spice to the relationship. Use too much of it and it can burn Picture Quote #1

Sometimes we get too possessive with someone we don’t even own. It’s a side effect of loving too much, and receiving too little Picture Quote #1
