She wished the man outside really were Thomas, so she and Billups could again have the same enemy and the same fear.O ~ Ayana Mathis
Alice And Billups quotes by Ayana Mathis
He described to her the house he had built for himself, in outside appearance a shack, but delightful inside, at least to him. A sleeping loft with a little round window. Everything he needed right where he could put his hand to it, out in the open, nothing in cupboards. A short walk from the house he had a bathtub sunk in the earth, in the middle of a bed of sweet herbs. He would carry hot water to it by the pailful and lounge there under the stars, even in the winter. He grew vegetables, and shared them with the deer.
(From the story "Powers") ~ Alice Munro
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Munro
Next Action

When you're avoiding something, try identifying the next action you need to take to move forward. Do that action. For example, if you have a legal situation and you feel overwhelmed about it, the next action you need to take might be something like emailing a lawyer friend and asking for a referral. If your garden has become overgrown with weeds, the next action you need to take might be locating your gardening tools. If your smartphone is acting up, the next action you need to take might be to run a backup. If you need to buy a new laptop, your next action might be to decide on your budget. Keep in mind that the next action you pick shouldn't be too big. Generally, try to think of something you can do in 15 minutes or less. If you still feel overwhelmed, try picking an even smaller next action. To give credit where credit is due, the concept of defining your next action was first popularized in a productivity book called Getting Things Done. It's a concept many of my clients have found useful. ~ Alice Boyes
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Boyes
I always felt and still feel that fairy tales have an emotional truth that is so deep that there are few things that really rival them. ~ Alice Hoffman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Hoffman
What the future held for her she didn't know. Of two things only she was certain. There would be children-her own or other people's-and there would be books. ~ Alice Dalgliesh
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Dalgliesh
It wasn't the way to end things, not at all. I agreed, but the problem was, there was no real way to end things. Nothing would ever feel quite right. I would rather have searched and searched forever than finally sat down in a spot and said, This is it. Here is where we will end it. ~ Alice Ozma
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Ozma
She barely notices when I say that I am going on to Toronto to visit my grandparents. Except to remark that they must be really old. Not a word about Alister. Not even a bad word. She would not have forgotten. Just tidied up the scene and put it away in a closet with her former selves. Or maybe she really is a person who can deal recklessly with humiliation. ~ Alice Munro
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Munro
We think of poverty as a condition simply meaning a lack of funds, no money, but when one sees fifth, sixth, and seventh generation poor, it is clear that poverty is as complicated as high finance. ~ Alice Childress
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Childress
Illness sets the mind free sometimes to roam and surmise. ~ Alice B. Toklas
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice B. Toklas
To transform experience and thought into language and narrative - that is beautiful even if that beauty is in brokenness. ~ Alice Sebold
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Sebold
Once, before leaving on vacation, I copied an entire page from an Alice Munro story and left it in my typewriter, hoping a burglar might come upon it and mistake her words for my own. That an intruder would spend his valuable time reading, that he might be impressed by the description of a crooked face, was something I did not question, as I believed, and still do, that stories save you. ~ Jincy Willett
Alice And Billups quotes by Jincy Willett
Brenna Kelly, meet Alice Price-Healy. Grandma, meet Breanna. No one is shooting, stabbing or immolating anyone in this hotel room."
"Please," added Dominic. "I have to sleep here."
"HAIL!" Rejoiced the mice. "HAIL THE LACK OF STABBING, SHOOTING AND FLAME! ~ Seanan McGuire
Alice And Billups quotes by Seanan McGuire
Her hair had been long and wavy and brown then, natural in curl and color, as he liked it, and her face bashful and soft
a reflection less of the way she was than of the way he wanted to see her. ~ Alice Munro
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Munro
She brought over a freshly brewed cup of black orchid tea and sat across from me. The tea was especially fragrant. From that day on, it was my favorite. The scent reminded me of rainy days and libraries and a jumble of gardens where there were flowers in bloom. ~ Alice Hoffman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Hoffman
No one who was not by nature a lover of logic, and an extreme precisian in the use of words and phrases, could have written the two "Alice" books. ~ Stuart Dodgson Collingwood
Alice And Billups quotes by Stuart Dodgson Collingwood
The only choice I make is to write about what interests me in a way that interests me, that gives me pleasure. It may not look like pleasure, because the difficulties can make me morose and distracted, but that's what it is - the pleasure of telling the story I mean to tell as wholly as I can tell it, of finding out in fact what that story is, by working around the different ways of telling it. ~ Alice Munro
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Munro
I KNEW I MUST do all as I was told, yet something burned inside me, a seed of defiance that must have derived from a long-ago ancestor. Perhaps my mind was inflamed from the books I had read and the worlds I had imagined. ~ Alice Hoffman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Hoffman
Read everything. Write all the time. And if you can do anything else that gives you equal pleasure and allows you to sleep soundly at night, do that instead. The writing life is an odd one, to say the least. ~ Alice McDermott
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice McDermott
Privacy is something that we maintain for the good of ourselves and others. Secrecy we keep to separate ourselves from others, even those we love. ~ Mary Alice Monroe
Alice And Billups quotes by Mary Alice Monroe
I believe there should be breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack, all for free and for every child that goes to school. And all food that is good, clean and fair. ~ Alice Waters
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Waters
How many nights and sunrises came to caress our hearts. Then, as often happens, I see I'm just lonely in living the poetry of these moments, and I'm throwing away my magic. I can find refuge in my songs, they surround me like a mother, but then I realize that this hug is becoming a cage, I'm prisoner in my dreams, and I wonder: "may I be condemned to dream forever?" ... I wish I could watch again beauty of the moon, creating a big heart made of shells on the beach, as a castaway's signal ... hoping to be seen by someone who's flying up there ... and loudly saying .. "Hey .. I'm here ! please help me to escape ~ Alice James Books
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice James Books
I believed in fictional characters as if they were a part of real life. Poetry was important, too. My parents had memorized poems from their days attending school in New York City and loved reciting them. We all enjoyed listening to these poems and to music as well. ~ Alice McDermott
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice McDermott
Sadness is melancholy. Depression is a black hole of despair. I always imagine it's like drowning. There are short bursts of fresh air, like Alice, but the past, the hopelessness, the guilt, and self-loathing is a pair of lead shoes that always pull me back under. ~ Kim Holden
Alice And Billups quotes by Kim Holden
Two of the guys that were honorary Vampires - Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix - had died at 27. And they were certainly archangels in our group. ~ Alice Cooper
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Cooper
I started writing as a child. But I didn't think of myself actually writing until I was in college. And I had gone to Africa as a sophomore or something - no, maybe junior - and wrote a book of poems. And that was my beginning. I published that book. ~ Alice Walker
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Walker
I'm very conscious of trying to make something epic out of something small and ordinary. ~ Alice McDermott
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice McDermott
I'm hidden in the scream when the virgin dies, I'm the ache in the belly when your baby cries, and I'm the burning sensation when the convict fries. ~ Alice Cooper
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Cooper
Competition is. In every business, no matter how small or how large, someone is just around the corner forever trying to steal your ideas and build his success out of your imagination, struggling after that which you have toiled endless years to secure, striving to outdo you in each and every way. If such a competitor would work as hard to originate as he does to copy, he would much more quickly gain success. ~ Alice Foote MacDougall
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Foote MacDougall
But it was difficult, this living in real time only, and not diluting it by looking back or skipping forward. No wonder it's never really caught on with most people, I thought. It's just too hard. ~ Alice Steinbach
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Steinbach
The right woman for you wouldn't want you to change anything about your life. She wouldn't rock your boat, she'd jump right in and sail it with you. ~ Alice Clayton
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Clayton
Desolate
Life is so dreary and desolate
Women and men in the crowd meet and mingle,
Yet with itself every soul standeth single,
Deep out of sympathy moaning its moan
Holding and having its brief exultation
Making its lonesome and low lamentation
Fighting its terrible conflicts alone. ~ Alice Cary
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Cary
Surround Yourself with Others Who Are Already Doing What You Want to Do

My all-time favorite success tip for people who tend to hesitate excessively is to regularly interact with people who are already successfully doing what you want to do. Why will this help you moderate your tortoise tendencies? Emotions, thoughts, and behaviors all tend to be socially contagious. Therefore, if you surround yourself with people who are already acting in the ways you need to act, this will likely rub off on you. You'll be more likely to take action.
Another key reason for interacting with others who are already succeeding in your field is that many of the key pieces of information that will help you succeed won't be shared in books or other public forums. They're likely passed from person to person. You'll get to know these insider secrets only by befriending successful people. ~ Alice Boyes
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Boyes
I had taken this time to fall in love instead - inn love with the sort of helplessness I had not felt inn death - the helplessness of being alive, the dark bright pity of being human - feeling as you went, groping in corners and opening your arms to light - all of it part of nagivating the unknown. ~ Alice Sebold
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Sebold
The servants were evil," he said, recalling the tale the way the whiskey priest they sent to Creedmoor told it, sitting with Mr. Persichetti at the nurses' station late into the night, those watery blue eyes forever bloodshot and sleepless. "They told the crazy chieftain that he should marry his beautiful daughter instead. Which he tried to do." ("If you get my meaning," the priest had said.) "But Dymphna ran off to Belgium." He saw her grimace and purse her lips, her face seemed to swell with color. "Her crazy father followed her," he said, tightening his own grip on her hand. "I guess he cut off her head. ~ Alice McDermott
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice McDermott
Those children who are beaten will in turn give beatings, those who are intimidated will be intimidating, those who are humiliated will impose humiliation, and those whose souls are murdered will murder. ~ Alice Miller
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Miller
I love going out and it is a bit sad when the photographers stop asking you for your picture. ~ Alice Evans
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Evans
As for the Kristen Stewart comparisons, I just don't think that's fair. I thought she was great in On The Road and Into The Wild. But she's got enough people scrutinising her without me adding my take. ~ Alice Englert
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Englert
I eat meat, but no meat that isn't pastured is acceptable, and we probably need to eat a whole lot less. ~ Alice Waters
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Waters
Tell me I am going to be alright," I plead to my Tiger Lily.
"You're not alright," the flower talks back. "You're insane, Alice. Insane!" It spreads it's petals and spits in my face. I am hallucinating again. ~ Cameron Jace
Alice And Billups quotes by Cameron Jace
In Berlin evil came to them slowly and then all at once. ~ Alice Hoffman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Hoffman
All my life I had to fight. I had to fight my daddy. I had to fight my brothers. I had to fight my cousins and my uncles. A girl child ain't safe in a family of men. But I never thought I'd have to fight in my own house. She let out her breath. I loves Harpo, she say. God knows I do. But I'll kill him dead before I let him beat me. ~ Alice Walker
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Walker
Resist the temptation to think what afflicts you is peculiar to you. Have faith that what is in your consciousness can be communicated to the consciousness of all. And is, in many cases, already there. ~ Alice Walker
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Walker
Some things, however, are true no matter how hard you might try to block them out,
and a lie is always a lie, no matter how prettily told. Some doors, once they're opened,
can never be closed again, just as some trust, once it's been lost, can never be won back. ~ Alice Hoffman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Hoffman
You like to act as if you care about nothing and if you carry on like that then you're going to drown in the abyss you have imagined for yourself. ~ Alice Oseman
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Oseman
Honesty," she announced.

Her slightly shaky voice echoed through the dark assembly hall. the single word and the long silence after it made the students in the audience sit up a little straighter in their seats. Then Gabriella began to recite:

"I see you there in front of me-
Your face, your hands, your eyes.
I hear you talk, I hear you tell
Your hopes, your dreams, your lies.

I walked with you, a sunlit trail,
Together hand in hand.
Then twilight came, and you were gone,
And now alone I stand.

The woods are cold, the trees are black,
The dark is closing in.
And you have gone away from me,
Your faultless light has dimmed.

Betrayal is an empty space,
Raw night, cold room, alone.
And no one can redeem your face,
Sweet knight, safe light, you're gone." ~ Alice Alfonsi
Alice And Billups quotes by Alice Alfonsi
Alice does not turn around, but only to stare at the judge, then she spits on the floor of the court and rushes out, two fat policewomen trying to keep pace with her. ~ Mohammed Hanif
Alice And Billups quotes by Mohammed Hanif
I went to schools that were small enough that basically everyone was in a play. I played a bouncing ball in a production of Alice in Wonderland and a fat man in an Italian commedia dell'arte play. I was given some small chances. ~ Lena Dunham
Alice And Billups quotes by Lena Dunham
