Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan

Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan
Maybe I'd lost something. Maybe I'd lost a lot - more, even, than I could suffer - but I still had my own self. And lonesome as I might be, wasn't no force on Earth or from above what could make me less. ~ J.D. Jordan
Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan
I was a huge 'Deadwood' fan because I'm a huge David Milch fan, so I've always wanted to play something like Calamity Jane on 'Deadwood' and just be the biggest Western tomboy girl, ever. ~ Emily Rose
Calamity Jane quotes by Emily Rose
I was in Deadwood at the time and on hearing of the killing made my way at once to the scene of the shooting and found that my friend had been killed by McCall. ~ Calamity Jane

Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan
I'm drunk. Correct. What the f*** is it to you? ~ Calamity Jane
Calamity Jane quotes by Calamity Jane
Seems a lot of men never saw one such as me. A girl what could keep up and fight and ride and curse with the best of them. A girl what ain't trapped in some dress or some house or some bed. A girl what ain't waiting on some man to do what she ought to her own damn self. ~ J.D. Jordan
Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan
The bigger a man's gun the smaller his doodlewick. ~ Calamity Jane
Calamity Jane quotes by Calamity Jane
And in the silence what followed, I reckon our eyes had some long conversation our mouths could've never talked through. Some long, looking talk about things gone and long since said. About cries out in the night and some long ago tangling of limbs. And about them betrayals done time and time again - by both of us - what led to me pointing the Green Man's rifle at the man what once loved me under the Green Man's stars. ~ J.D. Jordan
Calamity Jane quotes by J.D. Jordan
I'd punch that cocksucker in the balls before I'd cup him for comfort. ~ Calamity Jane
Calamity Jane quotes by Calamity Jane
I got a servant, a nice clean German girl from the Volga. Her village had been devastated - no other word can convey my meaning - by the liquidation of the Kulaks. In the German Volga Republic the peasants, who had been settled there two hundred years before to set an example to the Russians, had been better farmers and so enjoyed a higher standard of life than most peasants in Russia. Consequently, the greater part of them were classified as Kulaks and liquidated.
***
The girls came to the towns to work as servants, and were highly prized, since they were more competent, cleaner, more honest and self-respecting than the Russian peasants. Curiously, they were the most purely Teutonic Germans I had ever seen, Germans like the pictures in Hans Andersen fairy tales, blue-eyed, with long golden plaits and lovely, fair skins. Being Protestants, and regarding the Russians around them as no better than barbarians, they had intermarried little and retained a racial purity which would no doubt have delighted Hitler.

My Hilda seemed a treasure. She could cook, she could read and write, she kept herself and the rooms clean and looked like a pink and flaxen doll. I could treat her as an equal without finding that this led to her stealing my clothes and doing no work.
The servant problem in Moscow for Jane and me lay in our inability to bully and curse and drive, which was the only treatment the Russian servant understood. It was quite natural that this should ~ Freda Utley
Calamity Jane quotes by Freda Utley
No, baby, I'm all man," he said with a smirk, winking at her. "Want me to prove it? ~ Jane Harvey-Berrick
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Harvey-Berrick
I have never yet found that the advice of a Sister could prevent a young Man's being in love if he chose it. ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
The sound of the rain faded away and she kissed him, letting herself be as honest as she'd wanted to be, letting her kiss speak for everything she was afraid to say with words. ~ Mary Jane Hathaway
Calamity Jane quotes by Mary Jane Hathaway
The hardest part about being a kid is knowing you have got your whole life ahead of you. ~ Jane Wagner
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Wagner
Capture of a wild animal is invariably traumatic. ~ Jane Velez-Mitchell
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Velez-Mitchell
When I write, I don't know what is going to emerge. I begin in a condition of complete unknowing, an utter nakedness of concept or goal. A word appears, another word appears, an image. It is a moving into mystery. ~ Jane Hirshfield
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Hirshfield
The novel as a form is usually seen to be moral if its readers consider freedom, individuality, democracy, privacy, social connection, tolerance and hope to be morally good, but it is not considered moral if the highest values of a society are adherence to rules and traditional mores, the maintenance of hierarchical relationships, and absolute ideas of right and wrong. Any society based on the latter will find novels inherently immoral and subversive. ~ Jane Smiley
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Smiley
Her companion's discourse now sunk from its hitherto animated pitch, to nothing more than a short, decisive sentence of praise or condemnation on the face of every woman they met; and Catherine, after listening and agreeing as long as she could,with all the civility and deference of the youthful female mind, fearful of hazarding an opinion of its own in opposition to that of a self-assured man, especially where the beauty of her own sex is concerned, ventured at length to vary the subject ... ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
No doubt one is familiar with Shakespeare to a degree, from one's earliest years. His celebrated passages are quoted by everybody; they are in half the books we open, and we all talk Shakespeare, use his similes, and describe with his descriptions... ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
The wisdom of the chess player is displayed more in winning over a capable opponent than a novice. The wisdom of the general is displayed more in defeating a superior army than in subduing an inferior one. Even more so, the wisdom of God is displayed when He brings good to us and glory to Himself out of confusion and calamity rather than out of pleasant times. ~ Jerry Bridges
Calamity Jane quotes by Jerry Bridges
Nesse's research focuses on the evolutionary origins of depression. Why does depression exist at all? If it's stayed in our gene pool for so long, he argues, there must be some evolutionary benefit. Nesse believes that depression may be an adaptive mechanism meant to prevent us from falling victim to blind optimism - and squandering resources on the wrong goals.11 It's to our evolutionary advantage not to waste time and energy on goals we can't realistically achieve. And so when we have no clear way to make productive progress, our neurological systems default to a state of low energy ... ~ Jane McGonigal
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane McGonigal
My current fear is that the message being sent by the level of vitriol surrounding Gillard's flawed leadership (but tell me whose wasn't flawed) is being heard by Australian women and girls loud and clear. And the message is: 'Don't aspire to high office,sweetheart, because we'll flay you alive.' ~ Jane Caro
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Caro
…each found her greatest safety in silence… ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
I love you, too," I whispered so softly I didn't know if he'd heard me. "Ti amo tanto, Sebastian, sempre e per sempre. ~ Jane Harvey-Berrick
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Harvey-Berrick
Perfection should not have come quite so soon. ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
I didn't want the children to grow up and, when asked what their mother did, say, 'Oh, Mom's a gun moll in the movies.' ~ Jane Greer
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Greer
Now I have done," cried Captain Wentworth. "When once married people begin to attack me with,--`Oh! you will think very differently, when you are married.' I can only say, `No, I shall not;' and then they say again, `Yes, you will,' and there is an end of it. ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
Once again, the curious thing was how strange and forceful the world was, how it battered and clanged and could not be withstood, and yet some individuals withstood it while others did not. ~ Jane Smiley
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Smiley
'The Piano' ended up on television. Everything ends up there anyway. ~ Jane Campion
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Campion
I think sometimes people are scared to change. Sometimes people are scared to do something different, especially if they've been successful at something. ~ Jane Clayson
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Clayson
You do not know what life means when all the difficulties are removed! ~ Jane Addams
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Addams
That is the case with us all, papa. One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other. Later ~ Jane Austen
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Austen
We would never have tracked him down if you hadn't followed him."
"Or if Jane hadn't convinced Meredith to tell us where the house is," Tristan said. "Your fiancé is quite a woman."
"I know." And she never ceased to amaze him. ~ Sabrina Jeffries
Calamity Jane quotes by Sabrina Jeffries
Dick called, but he just left dirty voice-mail messages. Let's just say if I'm ever in the market for a massage involving canola oil and marabou feathers, I'm covered. ~ Molly Harper
Calamity Jane quotes by Molly Harper
It didn't matter what I wore, or how much sleep I'd had or not had, he always looked at me as if his world began and ended with me. ~ Jane Harvey-Berrick
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Harvey-Berrick
All over the world, maybe besides literature, there's nothing that touches many people as movies do. People see them everywhere. ~ Jane Levy

God, Aimee, we'll make it work," he growled out against my skin. "I know we can make it work. Don't ever leave me again. Please, baby, please. ~ Jane Harvey-Berrick
Calamity Jane quotes by Jane Harvey-Berrick
What is your favorite book?" "Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen," I said. Her expression was of a pleasant surprise. She asked me why. "Elizabeth Bennett is a resilient woman. She is unapologetic about who she is, and is a strong character who does not care what others think of her. My mother is that way too. ~ Gramash Paul
Calamity Jane quotes by Gramash Paul
Gamers always believe that an epic win is possible and that it's always worth trying, and trying now. Gamers don't sit around. ~ Jane McGonigal
