A collection of quotes that I enjoy
Books:
“Everyone who’s born has come from the sea. Your mother’s womb is just a sea in small. And birds come of seas in eggs. Horses lie in the sea before they’re born. The placenta is the sea. And your blood is the sea continued in your veins. We are the ocean–walking on the land.” -Harris, in "The Wars" by Timothy Findley.
"Those roles which, being neither those of Hero nor Heroine, Confidante nor Villain, but which were nonetheless essential to bring about the Recognition or the denouement, were called the Fifth Business in drama and opera companies organized according to the old style; the player who acted these parts was often referred to as Fifth Business." -Robertson Davies.
"A fool-saint is someone who seems to be full of holiness, and loves everybody and does every good act he can,
but because he's a fool it all comes to nothing-- to worse than nothing,
because it's virtue tainted with madness and you can't tell where it'll end up." -Father Reagan, in "Fifth Business" by Robertson Davies.
Woah:
"Originality is the art of concealing your sources" -Benjamin Franklin.
“I still maintain that an ordinary human being has a right to be horrified by a mangled body seen on an afternoon walk” -Siegfried Sassoon
"Everything will be okay in the end. If its not okay, then its not the end." - Harmony_SH
Fun:
"Love is like peeing your pants. Everyone can see it, but only you can feel its warmth." -?
My Quotes:
"The war in itself does not cause insanity. The sight of the dead, the wounded, and the broken are what drive men mad."
"Robert has lost what it meant to be ordinary, and all that remained was madness."
"Innocence has a feeling?"
"Yes, it does. It feels like... sunshine, lollipops and rainbows."
"Sunshine: hot
Lollipops: wet and sticky
Rainbows: gay
hmmmm..... yup very innocent."
