Worn Quotes

I feel like I’m stepping into a place of spiritual contemplation every time I enter a studio; it’s always had a certain magic to me that has never worn off with familiarity Picture Quote #1

I think I would like to have lived in the 1930s and worn beautiful bias cut dresses all the time Picture Quote #1

I just feel like there hasn’t been enough time away from all this other stuff and into this new world or sort of big world that it hasn’t worn off yet Picture Quote #1

My overcoat is worn out my shirts also are worn out. And I ask to be allowed to have a lamp in the evening it is indeed wearisome sitting alone in the dark Picture Quote #1

The brightest crowns that are worn in heaven have been tried, and smelted, and polished and glorified through the furnaces of tribulation Picture Quote #1

Fashion is the most intense expression of the phenomenon of neomania, which has grown ever since the birth of capitalism. Neomania assumes that purchasing the new is the same as acquiring value... If the purchase of a new garment coincides with the wearing out of an old one, then obviously there is no fashion. If a garment is worn beyond the moment of its natural replacement, there is pauperization. Fashion flourishes on surplus, when someone buys more than he or she needs Picture Quote #1

If I have an hour in a city, I go to vintage stores first because it’s so much cooler to find a piece that is unique. I love the thought of some girl having worn it before and living her life in it Picture Quote #1

The library was a little old shaby place. Francie thought it was beautiful. The feeling she had about it was as good as the feeling she had about church. She pushed open the door and went in. She liked the cmbined smell of worn leather bindings, library past and freshly inked stamping pads better than she liked the smell of burning incense at high mass Picture Quote #1

So long as one’s just dreaming about what to do, one can soar like an eagle and move mountains, it seems, but as soon as one starts doing it one gets worn out and tired Picture Quote #1

I’m going to enjoy every second, and I’m going to know I’m enjoying it while I’m enjoying it. Most people don’t live; they just race. They are trying to reach some goal far away on the horizon, and in the heat of the going they get so breathless and panting that they lose sight of the beautiful, tranquil country they are passing through; and then the first thing they know, they are old and worn out, and it doesn’t make any difference whether they’ve reached the goal or not Picture Quote #1

My memories of them had rubbed thin with overuse, worn to frail color transparencies flickering on the walls of my mind Picture Quote #1

There is no such thing as an empty word, only one that is worn out yet remains full Picture Quote #1

She had the kind of looks that had probably been quite pretty in high school, but were now worn down by years of smoking cigarettes, raising children, and the disappointment of being married to an asshole Picture Quote #1

It is different for us mortals. We are the ones who become old and grey. We are the ones who become worn at the seams and disappear. But not our dreams. They can live on in other people even after we have gone Picture Quote #1

And yet she could not forgive herself. Even as an adult, she wished only that she could go back and change things: the ungainly things she’d worn, the insecurity she’d felt, all the innocent mistakes she made Picture Quote #1

What had happened to our love? Somehow it had faded, or worn out, or simply withered away Picture Quote #1

A book is a wonderful present. Though it may grow worn, it will never grow old Picture Quote #1

Being a child is such a shining gift, yet we don’t know how precious it is until it’s worn out and gone away Picture Quote #1

It is hard to let old beliefs go. They are familiar. We are comfortable with them and have spent years building systems and developing habits that depend on them. Like a man who has worn eyeglasses so long that he forgets he has them on, we forget that the world looks to us the way it does because we have become used to seeing it that way through a particular set of lenses. Today, however, we need new lenses. And we need to throw the old ones away Picture Quote #1

In the first weeks I had occasionally worn clothes in the morning before the sun began its ascent, but very soon I abandoned this habit, and the only bit of material I ever wore was the strip of sari cloth around my hips, which was so useful for making into a bag to collect coconuts on walks Picture Quote #1

I am a woman now! It’s true. No, honestly, I’ve never worn a bra in my life, ever! Picture Quote #1

We know our lands have now become more valuable. The white people think we do not know their value; but we know that the land is everlasting, and the few goods we receive for it are soon worn out and gone Picture Quote #1

I chose the shadows; they did not choose me. I stay here securely not just because I feel plain, but because disappearance is by now the easy way. The habit. The worn path that I can trod knowingly and be assured safe passage home Picture Quote #1

Information is now a commodity that can be bought and sold, or used as a form of entertainment, or worn like a garment to enhance one’s status. It comes indiscriminately, directed at no one in particular, disconnected from usefulness; we are glutted with information, drowning in information, have no control over it, don’t know what to do with it Picture Quote #1

Women are like bars of soap. After a while they lose their freshness, become worn and a bit hairy Picture Quote #1

We don’t have to know, only to be: let go the jumble of worn words, reason and vanity Picture Quote #1

Reality is only a dream, based on values and well worn principles, whereas the dream goes on forever Picture Quote #1

It’d be nice to have a new name, to start with, one that’s not all worn out from being called so much Picture Quote #1

Tired faith all worn and thin, for all we could have done, and all that could have been Picture Quote #1
