Part of growing up is narrowing your life choices to a manageable size. ~ Amy E. Spiegel
Amy quotes by Amy E. Spiegel
Meridian


First daylight on the bittersweet-hung
sleeping porch at high summer; dew
all over the lawn, sowing diamond-
point-highlighted shadows;
the hired man's shadow revolving
along the walk, a flash of milkpails
passing; no threat in sight, no hint
anywhere in the universe, of that

apathy at the meridian, the noon
of absolute boredom; flies
crooning black lullabies in the kitchen,
milk-soured crocks, cream separator
still unwashed; what is there to life
but chores and more chores, dishwater,
fatigue, unwanted children; nothing
to stir the longueur of afternoon

except possibly thunderheads;
climbing, livid, turreted alabaster
lit up from within by splendor and terror
-- forded lightening's
split-second disaster. ~ Amy Clampitt
Amy quotes by Amy Clampitt
When choosing between two similar applicants, hiring managers are increasingly turning to social media outlets to supplement information they are unable to glean from applications or interviews. ~ Amy Jo Martin
Amy quotes by Amy Jo Martin
Apology Letter from the Brain
Hey there. I'm sorry. OK? But can I say something? Look. I admit I wasn't perfect. No one is perfect. That's a fact. Speaking of facts, don't you think we all need to take a minute and decide who is right and who is wrong? Every side is different; it's just that my side seems more right. I'm not just saying that because it's my side. I think a lot of other people would agree with me, given the chance. If I upset you in some way, please know that wasn't my intention. I didn't know how sensitive you were. It's obvious I can set you off very easily. That's not an insult; it's just an observation. I think it would help if we talked about this more and argued about who was telling the truth. I would like to see you in person and tell you how the situation has affected me. I may use this opportunity to bring up other times you have hurt me in the past. If possible, I would like to hurt you back. Either way, I want to be in control. Until then, take care. And please, remember I reached out first.
I remain,
THE BRAIN

Apology Letter from the Heart
Hey there. I'm sorry. I've found it hard to tell you this, and I realize my apology may be too little or come too late. It is important for me to let you know that I am sorry for what I did or said or didn't do or say. I was wrong. I make mistakes. I HATE that I made one with you. I'm reaching out because life goes by so fast and I just don't want my one life to go by without expr ~ Amy Poehler
Amy quotes by Amy Poehler
If they didn't stop this, she was going to come
embarrassingly quickly.
Possibly even right now.
Not to mention the fact she never let men she barely knew unzip her and suck on her nipples. ~ Amy Andrews
Amy quotes by Amy Andrews
My little brother Paul. He owns his own floor sanding business called Silly P Hardwood Floors and hes really good. ~ Amy Sedaris
Amy quotes by Amy Sedaris
We are made in his image, and to him we return. After ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
Nobody got me out," Nellie replied. "They just let me go. They think I'm a deranged Jonah Wizard fan. Apparently, the hotel's full of them. A couple of idiots actually jumped off the front balcony. Can you picture that?"
"In Technicolor," Amy said bitterly.
"That low-down KGB reject!" Dan fumed. "I can't believe she cheated me–right when I was in the middle of cheating her! ~ Gordon Korman
Amy quotes by Gordon Korman
When working with an unknown situation, you have to identify known factors and work within their boundaries. ~ Amy Plum
Amy quotes by Amy Plum
When people have an inner sense of confidence, they're more beautiful. ~ Amy Carlson
Amy quotes by Amy Carlson
Witch-heart, are you gold or black? ~ Amy Lowell
Amy quotes by Amy Lowell
We race the world, and as fast as it rotates, as fast at it revolves, we are faster. ~ Amy Zhang
Amy quotes by Amy Zhang
I read Claire Messud's 'The Emperor's Children,' I read Joseph O'Neill's 'Netherland' - but to me, they're not 9/11 novels. In 'The Emperor's Children,' 9/11 felt to me like a piece of the plot; the novel wasn't wrestling with what 9/11 meant. And 'Netherland' felt the same way. I liked both books a lot but I don't see them as 9/11 novels. ~ Amy Waldman
Amy quotes by Amy Waldman
I remind myself of what [Bishop's] father's done. What he is still doing. But Bishop's touch is gentle, his intentions good. No matter how hard I look, I cannot find the blood on his hands. ~ Amy Engel
Amy quotes by Amy Engel
I suddenly knew, in a way I'd never had before, what want meant, and why it was dangerous and greedy and huge. ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
Happiness is not a zero-sum game. It's the only case in which the resources are limitless, and in which the rich can get richer at no expense to anyone else. That day in the park, I found it remarkably easy to own my happiness and celebrate Kate's as well.
It's a strange thing, though, how rare, maybe impossible, it is to have everyone you care about thriving at the same time. For a short spell, life seems certain and stable, until something shifts and redistributes, randomly, unpredictably, and when you look around at the new landscape, you see that it's someone else's turn now. You redirect your attention to focus on the friend in need. You hope - you know - they will do the same for you, when your turn comes. ~ Amy Poeppel
Amy quotes by Amy Poeppel
The only person you should compare yourself to, is the person that you were yesterday. ~ Amy Morin
Amy quotes by Amy Morin
If I touch her, she'll have my soul, Trey replies. ~ Amy A. Bartol
Amy quotes by Amy A. Bartol
Bryce looked at his mom, "I'm sick of talking to this old coot. Hit me with another present."
She tossed him one, hard. It hit him in the chest. He mock glared at his mom. "You said hit me," she smiled.

-Bryce and Amy ~ Micalea Smeltzer
Amy quotes by Micalea Smeltzer
Hold yourself on your own. A man's job in a romantic dynamic is not to be your butler, bank account or your father. ~ Amy Chan
Amy quotes by Amy Chan
Yeah, we appreciate our women followng ... and I love women. I mean, I just really love women. I love men, too, but you know it's like sometimes you look up from what you're doing and you go, 'I love women.' There's just something about them and so, just celebrate it. ~ Amy Ray
Amy quotes by Amy Ray
Beautiful was in the way that she moved and spoke. Beautiful was an action as well as a description. ~ Danielle Paige
Amy quotes by Danielle Paige
The great thing about a song is that no one has to know your story. But if you tell it in a way that has clarity and means something to somebody else, then it can apply to their story. ~ Amy Grant
Amy quotes by Amy Grant
As my friend Amy observed: "Divorce is like a Polaroid picture. What truly happened will develop over time and you will see. ~ Augusten Burroughs
Amy quotes by Augusten Burroughs
I think we all have something in our life's experience that makes us feel different. It's whether we have a gay parent or we have an alcoholic mother or maybe we don't know our father. And it's something that we feel bad about initially because we think we're abnormal. What's abnormal is our assumption that there's something called 'normal.' ~ Amy Richards
Amy quotes by Amy Richards
Who do you look like?" I laugh.

"No one. My father used to joke that my mother must have had an affair with the milkman. ~ Amy Ewing
Amy quotes by Amy Ewing
No one's going to be at our hundred-year reunion. Hell, no one's coming back for the five-year reunion." That was probably true. ~ Amy Zhang
Amy quotes by Amy Zhang
Sometimes we don't know that it's best to run. Hanging on in desperation seems to be our way. ~ Amy A. Bartol
Amy quotes by Amy A. Bartol
There was a certain freedom in being on the outside. He watched instead of being watched. ~ Amy Zhang
Amy quotes by Amy Zhang
Oh, please. You know damn well you're amazing. You don't think I watched you the other night? The whole place was glued to your every move," he paused. "I was egging you on, you know. I wanted you to go out there. I wanted to see you..."

"You did not!' Maggie interrupted hotly. "You didn't think I could. You think I'm unattractive and boring."

"Keep tellin' yourself that, Maggie, and I'll keep telling myself that, and we'll both be happier in the long run. ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
If I hold on to choices of any kind, just because they are my choice; if I give any room to my private likes and dislikes, then I know nothing of Calvary love. Then Jesus said unto his disciples, If anyone will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me (Matthew 16:24). Please take all of me, Lord, that I may be wholly yours. Help me to hold loosely those things, even those blessings, that I have here, that I may be available for service to you at any time. ~ Amy Carmichael
Amy quotes by Amy Carmichael
Sometimes life seemed particularly unfair, unduly harsh, and beyond bearing. ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
But I am doing that thing I always do-the obsessing about what I don't have, the ignoring where I am now. ~ Amy Reed
Amy quotes by Amy Reed
The problem of Palestine was that everyone wanted things simple: everyone was an extremist because everyone wanted things simple. It was the problem of humanity. Good and evil, as if there were only those two. The interesting thing was to seek truth and then face it. ~ Amy Wilentz
Amy quotes by Amy Wilentz
The friends you meet over forty are really juicy. They are highly emulsified and full of flavor. Now that you're starting to have a sense of who you are, you know better what kind of friend you want and need. ~ Amy Poehler
Amy quotes by Amy Poehler
That was how dishonesty and betrayal started, not in big lies but in small secrets. ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
When I began doing theatre in high school I saw that I could get laughs from people but I didn't really connect that to going on and becoming a comedian. I was interested in acting and while I was at Boston College I was part of an improv group, Mother's Fleabag, which had a long history and has been known as one of the best college improvisation groups in the U.S. ~ Amy Poehler
Amy quotes by Amy Poehler
He'd gone too far. He didn't usually talk to women so frankly. Not with them both fully clothed anyway. ~ Amy Andrews
Amy quotes by Amy Andrews
It's an old, established rule, but "golden hour" lighting is ideal because the first and last hours of sunlight are diffuse and warm. For that reason, women with photos taken outside during those hours tended to look great. ~ Amy Webb
Amy quotes by Amy Webb
Once apon a time, Ian's dark, dreamy eyes had made her melt inside. The angle of his head, the wrinkle in the left corner of his lip - they'd obsessed her. And he'd been obsessed right back. Now all Amy wanted to do was throw her shoe at the screen. ~ Peter Lerangis
Amy quotes by Peter Lerangis
Cameron looked over her shoulder just as Jack stalked into the tent. He got his first glimpse of the back of her dress. Or lack thereof.
He stopped dead in his tracks.
"Wow."
His eyes lingered on her for another moment before he turned to Amy, gesturing. "This place looks great, Amy. You did one hell of a job."
Amy grinned. "Nice recovery, Jack. ~ Julie James
Amy quotes by Julie James
The thought of talking about it made Pueblo's gut ache, but then he thought of everything that Amy had been through – not that she'd told him her version yet. She had balls of steel, he thought with a smile. And what did he have? Three pairs of loin cloths going crisp on the radiator. ~ Dianna Hardy
Amy quotes by Dianna Hardy
There are some things you can do forever. Given a deep enough shaft, you can fall forever. You can forget forever, and disintegrate forever, and you can laugh for a very long time. But you cannot bleed for long - not you, not citruses, not twites or treepies, not orangequits or plushcaps or jewel-babblers, nor any creature whose vessels flutter with warm, swirling, cell-bearing plasma. Either your leak will mend or you will become void.
Only love can bleed forever; only love has endless blood. Only love's slender drooping tassels can bleed yet grow stronger, bleed yet grow brighter; redder, redder, never spent, never phantasmal-gray. Maybe, if it only gets kicked, then love is love-lies-dented, and in a few days it replumps. But when it suffers a terrible wound, love seems able neither to heal - to grow substitute tissue over its damage - nor to run dry. ~ Amy Leach
Amy quotes by Amy Leach
When the beer is gone, so are they
flexing their cars on up the boulevard. ~ Amy Hempel
Amy quotes by Amy Hempel
He saw all those private aspects of me - and I mean not just sexual private parts, but my darker side, my meanness, my pettiness, my self-loathing - all the things I kept hidden. So that with him I was completely naked, and when I was feeling the most vulnerable - when the wrong word would have sent me flying out the door forever - he always said exactly the right thing at the right moment. He didn't allow me to cover myself up. He would grab my hands, look me straight in the eye and tell me something new about why he loved me. ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
I might have the whole world now, but it's not enough if I don't get to share it with her. ~ Beth Revis
Amy quotes by Beth Revis
'We're doing it because he's trying to look like a respectable member of the family and not the fucking mafia,' Dex snapped. He grimaced at Ethan. 'Sorry, man, but seriously
this is some fuckin' suit.'
Ethan looked at himself and his spiffy shiny cuffs and sighed. 'I was going for grown-up,' he confessed.
Kane was the one who said it. 'Well, what you got was connected, but that's okay, right? Because, you know, better a hired killer than a porn star.' ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
Whatever it is that makes you the person you are - that's what I love. All of it. ~ Amy Vincent
Amy quotes by Amy Vincent
I feel very open with people, and I'm good at disarming them and having conversations. ~ Amy Schumer
Amy quotes by Amy Schumer
How we absorb music is unique. I know what I do. When I'm listening to music, I tend to find myself in a song. That's what really makes you connect is if you feel what that song is saying. ~ Amy Grant
Amy quotes by Amy Grant
I think 90 percent of what/who we are is never really verbally communicated.... ~ Amy Krouse Rosenthal
Amy quotes by Amy Krouse Rosenthal
Because right now, leaning against Kenny's counter, he was fully, painfully erect, for maybe the first time in months.

He backed away and tried to think about something else - anything else. Losing his job, his mother's cat, Denise - oh, there you go. Limp as a politician's moral code. ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
All forms of birth
physical, intellectual, spiritual or emotional
bring one to the depths. The power to give birth originates in the creative life spirit birthing all, the seen and the unseen. ~ Amy Wright
Amy quotes by Amy Wright
(UGO, about Crank) I see the addiction to video games because you want to win them and it's just hard enough so you'd want to keep playing it over and over to try to figure it out. I definitely feel the movie is like a game at times but I'm not a huge videogame lover. ~ Amy Smart
Amy quotes by Amy Smart
A typical Ponzi scheme involves taking money from investors, then paying them off with money taken from new investors, rather than paying them from actual earnings. ~ Amy Goodman
Amy quotes by Amy Goodman
You are kind," she said softly. "I am not kind," Kjell scoffed. "And you are good," she added. "I am not good!" he laughed. "I have never known a man like you." "You were a slave in Quondoon! The men you knew were not trying to impress you." "Neither are you, Captain. Yet I am still impressed." "Then you have a lot to learn." She ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
I think music on television is just uniformly dreadful. It is mundane, it says nothing. ~ Amy Sherman-Palladino
Amy quotes by Amy Sherman-Palladino
We actually use a lot of improvisation on 'Transparent.' ~ Amy Landecker
Amy quotes by Amy Landecker
If parents can remember what it was like to be a child, they are going to be much more empathic with their own children. ~ Amy Hollingsworth
Amy quotes by Amy Hollingsworth
Whiskey grunted. By his count, he and Patrick had six days to go before he hauled the kid out by his ear on field work and let Fly Bait plan the destruction of all testosterone-based land mammals on general principal. ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
My voice sounds braver, more upbeat, than I feel, and I am glad thoughts are invisible things. ~ Amy K. Sorrells
Amy quotes by Amy K. Sorrells
My friends weren't concerned with botany. ~ Amy A. Bartol
Amy quotes by Amy A. Bartol
I don't want you to be a people-pleaser; you need to stand up for what you want and what you believe. ~ Amy Reece
Amy quotes by Amy Reece
How to be happy: Love everyone. Stay present. Live boldly. Choose bliss. Be grateful. ~ Amy Leigh Mercree
Amy quotes by Amy Leigh Mercree
You deserve love and you'll get it. ~ Amy Poehler
Amy quotes by Amy Poehler
Don't suggest that we are growing old, my Lord. We have only bloomed; and a very nice bouquet we make with our buds about us,' answered Mrs. Amy, shaking out the folds of her rosy muslin with much the air of dainty satisfaction the girl used to show in a new dress.
Not to mention our thorns and dead leaves,' added Jo, with a sigh; for life had never been very easy to her, and even now she had her troubles both within and without. ~ Louisa May Alcott
Amy quotes by Louisa May Alcott
Music is 'that by which I live. ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
Because sometimes that is the only way to remember what is in your bones. You must peel off your skin, and that of your mother, and her mother. Until there is nothing. No scar, no skin, no flesh.
-An-mei ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
How he managed to sound part pouting toddler and part alert soldier, she'd never know, but he managed it. ~ Amy J. Hawthorn
Amy quotes by Amy J. Hawthorn
-Too often college Bible classes end up like this-

With eager knife that oft has sliced
At Gentile gloss, or Jewish fable,
Before the crowd you lay the Christ
Upon the lecture table.

From bondage to the old beliefs
You say our rescue must begin,
But I want refuge from my griefs
And saving from my sin.

The strong, the easy and the glad
Hang, blandly listening, on your word;
But I am sick, and I am sad,
And I want Thee, O Lord.

(From Amy Carmichael's 1950 bio of Thomas Walker of Tinnevelly, India - poem written in about 1905 by Canon Ainger) ~ Canon Ainger
Amy quotes by Canon Ainger
Suffer more now, suffer less later. ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
I think I *was* the lightning. ~ Amy Leigh Strickland
Amy quotes by Amy Leigh Strickland
You want to know why I don't have many friends here? At least not ones that count, according to your fucking standards handed down from on high, princess? Because I figured it out. What the difference is between friends and casual acquaintances. Between lovers and fuck buddies. ~ Amy Jo Cousins
Amy quotes by Amy Jo Cousins
...I owed her a debt of gratitude. More than gratitude, much more.
I could finally see what had always been there. She had been more than an attendant, more than a friend, more than a sister. She had been a mother to me. She had worried, sought to protect me from danger, guided me toward the best. She had looked out for my future, assessed the worthiness of everyone to be in my life. And in that way, she had taken me as her purpose in life, the one who gave her meaning. I had a constant love all along. And in recognizing that, I felt moved to tears.
"How could you step out of my life?" I told her. "if you do don't join me, I will be lost. No one would worry about me as much as you. No one knows me better, knows my past and what this new life means. I should have told you a long time ago." I became teary-eyed. She kept her lips sealed, but her jaw was trembling. "You are the only loyal person in my life, the only one I can trust."
Tears fell from her eyes. "Now you know. I was always the only one."
"We love each other," I said with a light laugh. "In spite of all the trouble I've given you, you stayed with me. So it must be that you loved me like a mother. ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
I know I get you to myself all the time, but ... but ... ." There was an uneven touch in Quentin's hair, and Quentin almost stopped breathing. "You're the only thing I've wanted. I wanted my degree, but, you know, that came sort of easy. I wanted a business, and we've done that. And the whole time ... hell, even before we had our first class together ... before
our first study group, before we got dorm assignments ... all I wanted
was you. ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
Nothing," he said softly. "It's just a real nice turtle, that's all." "You ~ Amy Lane
Amy quotes by Amy Lane
He pulled her into his arms. Closing his eyes, he savored every inch of her small frame. God, why did she have to be the daughter of the Governor of Fort William? Why could she not be a simple lass from his clan. "Och, mo leannan, what am I to do with you?"
She took in a stilted gasp. "Love me. ~ Amy Jarecki
Amy quotes by Amy Jarecki
I ask myself, How can I relax? How can I let go of everything that's happened? You need complete trust to do that. ~ Amy Tan
Amy quotes by Amy Tan
May the fullness of God's love and His mercy shine as treasures to be found in every horizon. ~ Amy E. Tobin
Amy quotes by Amy E. Tobin
It's fun to play happy people. ~ Amy Ryan
Amy quotes by Amy Ryan
The more time you invest in a marriage, the more valuable it becomes. ~ Amy Grant
Amy quotes by Amy Grant
The International Olympic Committee was worried people would walk into a one-hundred-seat theater on the corner of Clark and Addison and wonder why no one was jumping over hurdles. The ~ Amy Poehler
Amy quotes by Amy Poehler
What makes a great golf course is continuity and variety: right-to-left holes, left-to-right holes. ~ Amy Alcott
Amy quotes by Amy Alcott
I love folk; that's a big part of my background. ~ Amy Lee
Amy quotes by Amy Lee
POETRY HAS A PEPTIC PRESENCE. PRESENTLY. ~ Amy King
Amy quotes by Amy King
A brick could create a clear winner in a fight if instead of fighting pillows against blankets, you fought bricks against blankets. ~ Amy Summers
Amy quotes by Amy Summers
Silence was a close cousin to invisibility. ~ Amy Harmon
Amy quotes by Amy Harmon
How long have you been here?"
"I don't know. You just stole my watch," he said with a shrug. ~ Amy Neftzger
Amy quotes by Amy Neftzger
Your heart of devotion and obedience is not in vain. Who knows but God how many people have come near to you and were forever changed simply by the fragrance of his love in you? Who knows but God if he will put you before kings and leaders to speak the truth, redirecting the future of nations? Who knows when that small crack in the dam of our enemy's plans will give way and God's glory will truly cover the earth as the sea? Do not become distracted or discouraged by the death around you. Death must always give way when the life of Christ enters the picture. ~ Amy Layne Litzelman
Amy quotes by Amy Layne Litzelman
Alarm clocks were invented by fork-tongued devils disguised as gremlins wearing snake masks. ~ Amy Kathleen Ryan
Amy quotes by Amy Kathleen Ryan
We live as if we know how everything will turn out. I certainly lived that way. But we don't know anything. Really, we don't. ~ Amy Purdy
Amy quotes by Amy Purdy
What do you think Amy Poehler is doing right now? ~ Georgia Clark
Amy quotes by Georgia Clark
I don't understand how the pain of losing him can be a pale shadow in comparison to the pain of finding him again. ~ Amy Engel
Amy quotes by Amy Engel
She knew this transition was not about becoming someone better, but about finally allowing herself to become who she'd always been. ~ Amy Rubin
Amy quotes by Amy Rubin
It's the natural trajectory of a writing career that a writer becomes better at being herself. ~ Amy Hempel
Amy quotes by Amy Hempel
When James entered the breakfast room that morning, it was to varied reactions. Those who hadn't known that he'd arrived started cheerful greetings that sputtered to an end as they got a good look at his face. Those who did know of his arrival and what subsequently followed it were either tactfully silent, grinning from ear to ear, or foolish enough to remark on it.
Jeremy fell into the middle and latter categories when he said with a chuckle, "Well,I know the poor Christmas tree didn't do that to you, though you did try valiantly to chop it down to size."
"And succeeded,as I recall," James grouched, though he did think to ask, "Was it salvageable, puppy?"
"Minus a few of its feathers is all, but those pretty little candles will dress it up so as not to notice- at least if someone other than me finishes the task.I'm much better at hanging the mistletoe."
"And making good use of it," Amy noted with a fond smile for her handsome cousin.
Jeremy winked at her. "That goes without saying. ~ Johanna Lindsey
Amy quotes by Johanna Lindsey
... and left decimated. Not for myself, but for all the single women out there trying to date. I wanted to run to the top of the Empire State Building and make an announcement to all of them to let them know they are worth so much more than this. That they don't need to wrangle some warm body to sit next to them just so they aren't alone on holidays. That they should never let a magazine or dating site or matchmaker monster tell them they're in a lower bracket of desirability because of their age or weight or face or sense of humor. ~ Amy Schumer
Amy quotes by Amy Schumer
Back in high school, I never understood how Amy could enjoy getting with guys just for the short haul. In a way, though, making out like this is more enjoyable because there's no pressure for me to not do or say anything stupid. What's the worst that can happen if I do? So I'm freer to focus on what I'm feeling, not what he feels about me. ~ Daria Snadowsky
Amy quotes by Daria Snadowsky
And to go forward, you need to get rid of your anger. And in order to do that, you need to go back to the past," Mike said.
"You sound like a fortune cookie. ~ Amy Lignor
Amy quotes by Amy Lignor
When I was in high school, I listened to a lot of death metal bands. ~ Amy Lee
