Cape Town quotes by Lost Love Spells In South Africa
Question and Answer
Durban, Birmingham,
Cape Town, Alabama,
Johannesburg, Watts,
The earth around
Struggling, fighting,
Dying
for what?
A world to gain.
Groping, hoping,
Waiting
for what?
A world to gain.
Dreams kicked asunder,
Why not go under?
There's a world to gain.
But suppose I don't want it,
Why take it?
To remake it. ~ Langston Hughes
Cape Town quotes by Langston Hughes
It was not possible to film in California, because all the areas are heavily built up now. Coming to Cape Town is an invitation to step into the past and recreate Los Angeles of the 1930s. ~ Robert Towne
Cape Town quotes by Robert Towne
If you see someone who doesn't have what they want it's because they cannot give. They cannot accept because they cannot give. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
You can only give things that you own, and you own only those things you consider you created. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
As Desmond Tutu told me on a recent trip to Cape Town, We are only the light bulbs, Richard, and our job is just to remain screwed in! ~ Richard Rohr
Cape Town quotes by Richard Rohr
In Cape Town, there's a drive from Cape Point to Camps Bay where the road is hewn out of the cliffs. It's just stunning, particularly if you do it as the sun is going down. ~ Sean Pertwee
Cape Town quotes by Sean Pertwee
The Cape Town is considerably increased within the last eight years. Its respectability with regard to strength has kept pace with its other enlargements and rendered it very secure against any attempt which is not made with considerable force. ~ William Bligh
Cape Town quotes by William Bligh
A waiter at the hotel kept telling me that Cape Town is just like a European city, but it's not like that at all. It doesn't feel safe, and I didn't really go out at night. ~ Robert Webb
Cape Town quotes by Robert Webb
Over two days, the remaining superheroic population of the Earth had heeded the call--by ship, teleport, magical portal, elemental transduction...the H-Man, Pangolin the Protector, Glass Tambourine, Omega-Mur, Hammer and Sickle, Jackdaw, the Infinite Wisdom, Doctor Mandragora, Czar and Tzar and Star, Kalamari Karl, Lightening Dancer, Doctor Chlorophyll, Jack Viking, Monomaniac, the Gin Fairy, the Holy Ghanta, the Bandolier, the Nuclear Atom, the Mysterious Flame, Moonstalker, Cataclysm and Inferno, the Skyguard II, Your Imaginary Pal, Dark Storm, the Hate Witch, Psychofire, Rabid, Riot, Fox and Hound, Hydrolad, Captain Fuji, Captain Cape Town, Captain Australia, Captain...Jeannie lost count, one uniform and one costume blurring into another. ~ Adam Christopher
Cape Town quotes by Adam Christopher
Cape Town's beaches are superb and while the water on the Atlantic side is damn cold, it's very pleasant on the other side. Bring your golf clubs if you play - Cape Town has some fabulous golf courses. ~ Wilbur Smith
Cape Town quotes by Wilbur Smith
You are harsh on others and yourself to the degree that you don't know how important you are. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
I used to do my Nelson Mandela voice to blag restaurant tables in Cape Town. It rarely worked. Now what a great city that is. ~ Rory Bremner
Cape Town quotes by Rory Bremner
The vision of a blood-washed Africa propelled me to go from Cape Town to Cairo and start Christ for all Nations. ~ Reinhard Bonnke
Cape Town quotes by Reinhard Bonnke
Altogether, if I had to pick one place to hang out anywhere, from New York to Cape Town and Australia to Hong Kong, a bookstore would be it. ~ Gloria Steinem
Cape Town quotes by Gloria Steinem
MOUNT PLAASMOORDE
If ever you visit South Africa
And do
Leave the brilliant beaches of Cape Town for a moment
Climb Mount Plaasmoorde Witkruis monument
And you'll see the victims of apartheid
White crosses marking a thousand white victims
Planted in the earth of a million black victims
They lie dissolved in the humus of the soils
They were too many to have their own marked graves
Too many to build black crosses for
And just too hard to forget about
Because they make the soil under your feet black ~ Dauglas Dauglas
Cape Town quotes by Dauglas Dauglas
If a person argues with you, know they are uncertain. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
Or consider how we citizens of rich countries obtain our oil and minerals. Teodoro Obiang, the dictator of tiny Equatorial Guinea, sells most of his country's oil to American corporations, among them Exxon Mobil, Marathon, and Hess. Although his official salary is a modest $60,000, this ruler of a country of 550,000 people is richer than Queen Elizabeth II. He owns six private jets and a $35 million house in Malibu, as well as other houses in Maryland and Cape Town and a fleet of Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bentleys. Most of the people over whom he rules live in extreme poverty, with a life expectancy of forty-nine and an infant mortality of eighty-seven per one thousand (this means that more than one child in twelve dies before its first birthday). ~ Peter Singer
Cape Town quotes by Peter Singer
When I became Archbishop I set myself three goals for my term of office. Two had to deal with the inner workings of our Anglican (Episcopalian) Church - the ordination of women to the priesthood which our Church approved in 1992 and through which our Church has been wonderfully enriched and blessed; and the other in which I failed to get the Church's backing, the division of the large and sprawling Diocese of Cape Town into smaller episcopal pastoral units. The third goal was the liberation of all our people, black and white, and that we achieved in 1994. ~ Desmond Tutu
Cape Town quotes by Desmond Tutu
Every time you are in doubt, you are actually killing yourself. Decide! ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
I've got two dogs - one's a Jack Russell and she's one year old now, and I've got another dog called Kanga, and I got him from a rescue shelter, and there's nothing I enjoy more than just walking them on the beach in Cape Town. I find that very destressing and very relaxing. ~ Lewis Pugh
Cape Town quotes by Lewis Pugh
Suppressed I Rise" is the true story of a courageous mother from South Africa and her two daughters. It started when Adeline, the granddaughter of missionaries from Germany, met and fell in love with a handsome young teacher, Richard Beck. They were married in the Cape Province of South Africa and would have been able to enjoy a normal life if it hadn't been for the dark clouds of World War II. Their first child Brigitte was born in Cape Town in 1936, just as Germany was ordering its citizens to return to Germany, the Vaterland. Richard Beck obeyed his country's call and returned to Mannheim bringing his family with him. ~ Hank Bracker
Cape Town quotes by Hank Bracker
Certainty has nothing to do with "the facts". ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
Jan van Riebeeck's arrival in Cape Town was the beginning of all South Africa's problems. ~ Jacob Zuma
Cape Town quotes by Jacob Zuma
what if there was an uncanny moment when all the birds were grounded from Cape Town to Juneau, and everywhere between--all feathers frozen in a universal stutter, so quick as to make a snail of light, and even Stephen Hawking's mind would miss it? ~ Kristen Henderson
Cape Town quotes by Kristen Henderson
God expects the ANC to rule this country because we are the only organisation which was blessed by pastors when it was formed. It is even blessed in Heaven. That is why we will rule until Jesus comes back. We should not allow anyone to govern our city [Cape Town] when we are ruling the country. ~ Jacob Zuma
Cape Town quotes by Jacob Zuma
I cannot imagine being happy anywhere else in the world but in Cape Town - South Africa in general, but Cape Town in particular. ~ Christoffel Wiese
Cape Town quotes by Christoffel Wiese
I recently saw a restaurant in the U.S. that boasted of serving authentic African cuisine. Africa is a big place. The distance from Tangier, in Morocco, to Cape Town, in South Africa, is over five times more than the distance from London to Rome. Yet, we don't compare tortellini with Yorkshire pudding. This so-called 'authentic African cuisine' featured dishes from what looked like two or three north African countries. When I looked through the kitchen window, out of curiosity, I saw Asian staff and what appeared to be a Mexican chef. Multiculturalism is a good thing, but ~ Danielle Hugh
Cape Town quotes by Danielle Hugh
I go for long walks in Newlands Forest in Cape Town, and I go to the Turkish baths on Sunday mornings. ~ Damon Galgut
Cape Town quotes by Damon Galgut
Your inner voice is the voice of your past. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
I once sat down on a bench at Cape Town railway station where the notice "Whites Only" was obscured. A few moments later a white man approached and shouted: 'Get off!' It never occurred to him that he was achieving the opposite of his dreams of superiority and had become a living object of contempt, that human beings, when they are human, dare not conduct themselves in such ways. ~ Bessie Head
Cape Town quotes by Bessie Head
And Cape Town is not what it used to be. Foreigners have left their imprint on our culture. ~ K. Sello Duiker
Cape Town quotes by K. Sello Duiker
When you are certain, you won't need to argue. ~ Meir Ezra
Cape Town quotes by Meir Ezra
I've still not written as well as I want to. I want to write so that the reader in Des Moines, Iowa, in Kowloon, China, in Cape Town, South Africa, can say, 'You know, that's the truth. I wasn't there, and I wasn't a six-foot black girl, but that's the truth.' ~ Maya Angelou
Cape Town quotes by Maya Angelou
I didn't have that typical high school experience of feeling ashamed of who I was. I once wore a superman cape and pajamas, and I thought that was awesome - and some people didn't! But some people did, and it was an arts high school, so nobody made me feel bad about who I was. ~ Aya Cash
Cape Town quotes by Aya Cash
I have no idea how it got so big. I was just trying to find something to do while I was living in Boulder, Colorado, which isn't really a funny town. There are a lot of smart people there, but comedy isn't at the forefront of their minds. ~ George Meyer
Cape Town quotes by George Meyer
And I know there are plenty of other "colored" things I could do besides telling my stories or going to Shirley Boon's meetings- the mass meetings in town, the marches in Birmingham, the voting rallies upstate. But truth is, I don't care that much about voting. I don't care about eating at a counter with white people. What I care about is, if in ten years, a white lady will call my girls dirty and accuse them of stealing the silver. ~ Kathryn Stockett
Cape Town quotes by Kathryn Stockett
How long since you had sex?" Aeron asked his friend.
Another moan. "Two - three days." Paris wiped his mouth with the back of his wrist.
Which meant Paris hadn‟t had a female since before their return. But Aeron knew Lucien had flashed the warrior into town every night they‟d spent in the desert for just that reason. Had the warrior had trouble finding a willing partner?
"Let me take you into town. You can - "
"No. Only want Sienna. My female. Mine. ~ Gena Showalter
Cape Town quotes by Gena Showalter
These monster cities we live in today are blights of modern society. They will certainly give way to planned cities interlinked to the countryside. Everybody will live with the natural advantages of the country and the cultural associations of the town. ~ James P. Cannon
Cape Town quotes by James P. Cannon
There are too many people for this town. - China, about Roarhaven ~ Derek Landy
Cape Town quotes by Derek Landy
You cannot tell a poor boy from a small country town on the plains of South Dakota who has had the opportunity to be a teacher, a mayor, a senator, and a vice president, that America is not a nation of promise. ~ Hubert H. Humphrey
Cape Town quotes by Hubert H. Humphrey
You wanna come into town, give me lip for a bitch being friendly with me when I'm a single man and free to talk and fuck who I want." Even hearing it curdled bile in his lower stomach. "Then climb all over my cock and disappear as quick as you came and came and came. Though, this is my own goddamn fault, isn't it, baby? I asked for this, for you to use me and my dick as your own fuck toy. So, you're gonna come home with me and you can get what you came looking for by fucking the shit out of me. ~ V. Theia
Cape Town quotes by V. Theia
I remembered the 500 people that lived on a reserve outside my little town, behind a big fence. ~ Phillip Noyce
Cape Town quotes by Phillip Noyce
People in this town saw only what they'd all agreed to see, they believed what was on the tube or in the morning papers half of them read while they were driving to work on the freeway, and it was all their dream about being wised up, about the truth setting them free. ~ Thomas Pynchon
Cape Town quotes by Thomas Pynchon
Spain, with 7324 inhabitants, a town-hall, an episcopal ~ Benito Perez Galdos
Cape Town quotes by Benito Perez Galdos
My life started on the banks of the Boyne in County Meath. Navan is the name of the town; only me, Mom, Dad. ~ Pierce Brosnan
Cape Town quotes by Pierce Brosnan
Just in case, he had asked Ms. Townson to call him if William talked about leaving town. He hadn't, obviously, making it possible now for him and William to dig through the refrigerator and stand at the counter making sandwiches together, all of which felt delightfully domestic. This would be their life together. Spreading margarine on white bread and debating if Swiss or American cheese was better. With any luck, they would be spending countless days this way, doing little mundane tasks that were so much better with someone to share them with. ~ Jay Bell
Cape Town quotes by Jay Bell
At first, we lived in very, very small places ... with my mom cleaning houses and scrounging up just enough to keep us in town with a working car. She introduced me to my first agent, and I started with stand-in work, then eventually commercials and television guest-shots. ~ Keith Coogan
Cape Town quotes by Keith Coogan
Hollywood can be a very stinging town. They say it's a forgiving business. It's not that forgiving. ~ Jeff Conaway
Cape Town quotes by Jeff Conaway
Each time I see the Upside-Down Man Standing in the water, I look at him and start to laugh, Although I shouldn't oughtter. For maybe in another world Another time Another town, Maybe HE is right side up And I am upside down ~ Shel Silverstein
Cape Town quotes by Shel Silverstein
I came up in a small town ghetto and I never did think I'd be a celebrity or famous athlete, I was just loving to play the game of basketball. And I worked hard at everything I did. ~ Moses Malone
Cape Town quotes by Moses Malone
He caught her elbow before she'd taken more than a few steps. "Are you walking home?"
"Yes."
"It's," he glanced at his watch, "nine o'clock."
She shrugged out of his hold and continued on her way. "The Boogeyman doesn't come out until ten, so I'm good. ~ Robin Bielman
Cape Town quotes by Robin Bielman
For some reason, Joey seemed to think that the entire male population of the town left Tammie and me alone because of his presence only. ~ Claire Farrell
Cape Town quotes by Claire Farrell
I was thinking that if I'd had the sense to go on living in that old town I might just have met this prison guard in school and married him and had a parcel of kids now. It would be nice, living by the sea with piles of kids and pigs and chickens, wearing what my grandmother called wash dresses, and sitting about in some kitchen with bright linoleum and fat arms, drinking pots of coffee. ~ Sylvia Plath
Cape Town quotes by Sylvia Plath
Washington was not just a city of marble buildings and smoke-filled rooms and power brokers, but also a town full of people who do care about each other, in good times and bad. ~ Andrea Mitchell
Cape Town quotes by Andrea Mitchell
Out on the street I start to run; I need to breathe in this life, the trees, the warmth of my town. I will be able to control my own fate and I will know how to be happy. Happiness is something you lay siege to, it is a battle ... ~ Shan Sa
Cape Town quotes by Shan Sa
The only dream I ever had was the dream of New York itself, and for me, from the minute I touched down in this city, that was enough. It became the best teacher I ever had. If your mother is anything like mine, after all, there are a lot of important things she probably didn't teach you: how to use a vibrator; how to go to a loan shark and pull a loan at 17 percent that's due in thirty days; how to hire your first divorce attorney; what to look for in a doula (a birth coach) should you find yourself alone and pregnant. My mother never taught me how to date three people at the same time or how to interview a nanny or what to wear in an ashram in India or how to meditate. She also failed to mention crotchless underwear, how to make my first down payment on an apartment, the benefits of renting verses owning, and the difference between a slant-6 engine and a V-8 (in case I wanted to get a muscle car), not to mention how to employ a team of people to help me with my life, from trainers to hair colorists to nutritionists to shrinks. (Luckily, New York became one of many other moms I am to have in my lifetime.) So many mothers say they want their daughters to be independent, but what they really hope is that they'll find a well-compensated banker or lawyer and settle down between the ages of twenty-five and twenty-eight in Greenwich, Darien, or That Town, USA, to raise babies, do the grocery shopping, and work out in relative comfort for the rest of their lives. I know this because ~ Kelly Cutrone
Cape Town quotes by Kelly Cutrone
You're absolutely right. Our little town is a hole. It always has been and still is. But now it is a hole into the future. We're going to dump so much through this hole into your lousy world that everything will change in it. Life will be different. It'll be fair. Everyone will have everything that he needs. Some hole, huh? Knowledge comes through this hole. And when we have the knowledge, we'll make everyone rich, and we'll fly to the stars, and go anywhere we want. That's the kind of hole we have here ~ Arkady Strugatsky
Cape Town quotes by Arkady Strugatsky
I had bill collectors chasing me. We were skipping from town to town, not leaving forwarding addresses. The agent couldn't find me when he sold my book. He finally found me. ~ Daniel Woodrell
Cape Town quotes by Daniel Woodrell
At the end, you flip over and start again because now you are not isolated. They have gone to work so that you can go home. High above, the day turns pink and you feel your feet lift above the ground as new roads open up in front of you. In this town, the jury is always rigged but the people know. They always know the truth. Believe. Belief. Beyond. Their morning glory. ~ Noel Gallagher
Cape Town quotes by Noel Gallagher
We have soon to have everywhere smoke annihilators, dust absorbers, ozonizers, sterilizers of water, air, food and clothing, and accident preventers on streets, elevated roads and in subways. It will become next to impossible to contract disease germs or get hurt in the city, and country folk will got to town to rest and get well. ~ Nikola Tesla
Cape Town quotes by Nikola Tesla
Hollywood is the kind of town that likes to make everything larger than life: movie premieres, aging actress' lips, and murders. Actors come from all over the world to find their sliver of fame on the street of L.A. Many stars rise, but many more fall. ~ Rob Manuel
Cape Town quotes by Rob Manuel
It's such an honour being banned in Italy, the mother of sensuality. It's like being asked to straighten your tie in a bordello ... It's ironic that the pictures were removed on the complaint of a cardinal. I regard censorship as a cardinal sin. ~ Harold Town
Cape Town quotes by Harold Town
You have to move in life, but the loyalty you develop in a community is always remembered. But if you leave, you don't pick it up in the next town. It's not an add-on, you know, because you lose what you had. ~ Richard DeVos
Cape Town quotes by Richard DeVos
One bulls-eye and you're rich and famous. The rich get more famous and the famous get rich. You're the talk of the town ... The sense of so much depending on success is very hard to ignore, perhaps impossible. It leads to disproportionate anxiety and disproportionate relief or disappointment. ~ Tom Stoppard
Cape Town quotes by Tom Stoppard
You always see actors complaining about being typecast and ruining their career. Really, I don't see the point in complaining. If the only role you can play well is a black dude, you're never going to get ahead in this town, and you should just accept it. ~ Zach Braff
Cape Town quotes by Zach Braff
The town of GUILDFORD, which (taken with its environs) I, who have seen so many, many towns, think the prettiest, and, taken all together, the most agreeable and most happy-looking, that I ever saw in my life. ~ William Cobbett
Cape Town quotes by William Cobbett
From May until October, the Ottoman Government pursued methodically a plan of extermination far more hellish than the worst possible massacre. Orders for deportation of the entire Armenian population to Mesopotamia were dispatched to every province of Asia Minor. These orders were explicit and detailed. No hamlet was too insignificant to be missed. The news was given by town criers that every Armenian was to be ready to leave at a certain hour for an unknown destination. ~ Herbert Adams Gibbons
Cape Town quotes by Herbert Adams Gibbons
You must be very secure in your masculinity to parade around in those budgie smugglers."
"Oh, I'm very secure." He see-sawed the towel over his back. "And I'm happy to show you the rear view of my budgie smugglers - oh wait - you already saw it when you were checking out my ass. ~ Tracey Alvarez
Cape Town quotes by Tracey Alvarez
The town itself is disagreeable; but then, all around, you find an inexpressible beauty of nature. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Cape Town quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
I stand on the end platform of the tram and am completely unsure of my footing in this world, in this town, in my family. Not even casually could I indicate any claims that I might rightly advance in any direction. I have not even any defense to offer for standing on this platform, holding on to this strap, letting myself be carried along by this tram, nor for the people who give way to the tram or walk quietly along or stand gazing into shop windows. Nobody asks me to put up a defense, indeed, but that is irrelevant. ~ Franz Kafka
Cape Town quotes by Franz Kafka
On his last voyage he had seemed on the brink of success and had stood in the prow reciting a grand poem of his own composition to a dim blue promontory in which he recognized one of the capes of Greenland. But it is idle to deny that the general feeling was dampened somehow, when they discovered it was the Cape of Good Hope. In short, the admiral was one of those who keep the world young. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Cape Town quotes by G.K. Chesterton
For the first five years of my life, I grew up in a log cabin in coastal British Columbia in a very small town, like 300 people, mostly hippies. No running water, no electricity. When I was 12, I changed my name from Dharma to Stewart. At that age, you just want to be normal. ~ Stewart Butterfield
Cape Town quotes by Stewart Butterfield
Living in a small town you couldn't go anywhere on a Saturday where a store had the game on. If you were downtown you heard the game. If you were at the gas station you heard the game. I remember I would be mowing the lawn and I would stop for the Nebraska game. I would have it cranking outside. ~ Larry The Cable Guy
Cape Town quotes by Larry The Cable Guy
I was brought up in a very small town in upstate New York. ~ Bill Pullman
Cape Town quotes by Bill Pullman
When there is a power failure, do you go and look for candles and matches or do you sit in the dark and allow your fears to get the best of you? ~ Bianca Bowers
Cape Town quotes by Bianca Bowers
In lands I never saw, they say,
Immortal Alps look down,
Whose bonnets touch the firmament,
Whose sandals touch the town, ―

Meek at whose everlasting feet
A myriad daisies play.
Which, sir, are you, and which am I.
Upon an August day? ~ Emily Dickinson
Cape Town quotes by Emily Dickinson
Then as we passed down this Passage we were knocked against certain Women of the Town, who gave us Eye-language, since there were many Corners and Closets in Bedlam where they would stop and wait for Custom: indeed it was known as a sure Market for Lechers and Loiterers, for tho' they came in Single they went out by Pairs. This is a Showing-room for Whores, I said.
And what better place for Lust, Sir Chris. replied, than among those whose Wits have fled? ~ Peter Ackroyd
Cape Town quotes by Peter Ackroyd
The town caught fire in several places, shells crashed and burst, and solid shot rained like hail. ~ James Longstreet
Cape Town quotes by James Longstreet
