Would Quotes

I came to poetry through the urgent need to denounce injustice, exploitation, humiliation. I know that's not enough to change the world. But to remain silent would have been a kind of intolerable complicity Picture Quote #1

A hypocrite despises those whom he deceives, but has no respect for himself. He would make a dupe of himself too, if he could Picture Quote #1

I think that a relationship has to be based on honesty and communication. If you were 25, that would be adorable, but you're 32, so that's just stupid Picture Quote #1

I would be loath to cast away my speech; for, besides that it is excellently penned, I have taken great pains to con it Picture Quote #1

Now the only thing I miss about sex is the cigarette afterward. Next to the first one in the morning, it's the best one of all. It tasted so good that even if I had been frigid I would have pretended otherwise just to be able to smoke it Picture Quote #1

I think that the two of them have been doing this for a really long time and it is more like sport. Yes, they would love to find a lasting relationship, but it's not likely to happen the way they are going about it Picture Quote #1

It became very clear to the director that it would be foolish not to use our friendship. I had tried to talk to him about it because all the relationships in the film are so, not negative, but antagonistic. There's not a lot of love going around Picture Quote #1

Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd Picture Quote #1

A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. A man who invested wisely would be admired, but a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion Picture Quote #1

Anybody who says they are a good liar obviously is not, because any legitimately savvy liar would always insist they're honest about everything Picture Quote #1

Do I want to be a hero to my son? No. I would like to be a very real human being. That's hard enough Picture Quote #1

She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses, cried the young Student; but in all my garden there is no red rose Picture Quote #1

When Maurice touched a keyboard, it was like something from a movie, magical. He would always give you something from a movie, and you'd go, what did you just play. Immediately inspirational writings, amazing. That's what we're going to miss Picture Quote #1

If religion had a good purpose, then man would have created something great. But we're man: we mess up everything. We mess up nature. We mess up God. We take what is given to us and make it into what we think it should be Picture Quote #1

One should never trust a woman who tells one her real age. A woman who would tell one that would tell one anything Picture Quote #1

I haven't trusted polls since I read that 62% of women had affairs during their lunch hour. I've never met a woman in my life who would give up lunch for sex Picture Quote #1

A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent Picture Quote #1

I mean in the South African case, many of those who were part of death squads would have been respectable members of their white community, people who went to church on Sunday, every Sunday Picture Quote #1

I try to do something the audience might not have seen before. Like if I'm gonna kiss a girl I wanna kiss her like a girl has never been kissed. Like maybe I would kick her legs out from under her and catch her right before she hits the ground and then kiss her Picture Quote #1

I cannot bear it! Said the pewter soldier. I have shed pewter tears! It is too melancholy! Rather let me go to the wars and lose arms and legs! It would at least be a change. I cannot bear it longer! Now, I know what it is to have a visit from one's old thoughts, with what they may bring with them! I have had a visit from mine, and you may be sure it is no pleasant thing in the end; I was at last about to jump down from the drawers Picture Quote #1

I don't trust doctors. It's not to say there ain't some good ones, but on a general level, no, I wouldn't trust 'em at all Picture Quote #1

I could say I murdered your family slowly with a butter knife and my voice would still calm you down Picture Quote #1

Yet, if he would, man cannot live all to this world. If not religious, he will be superstitious. If he worship not the true God, he will have his idols Picture Quote #1

At great periods you have always felt, deep within you, the temptation to commit suicide. You gave yourself to it, breached your own defenses. You were a child. The idea of suicide was a protest against life; by dying, you would escape this longing for death Picture Quote #1

My father wasn't around when I was a kid, and I used to always say, 'why me? why don't I have a father? why isn't he around? why did he leave my mother?' But as I got older I looked deeper and thought, 'I don't know what my father was going through, but if he was around all the time, would I be who I am today? Picture Quote #1
