Don't you dare, for one second, surround yourself with people who are not aware of the greatness that you are. ~ Jo Blackwell Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Jo Blackwell Preston
When you get up into the crown of a redwood tree, you lose sight of the ground entirely. You also lose sight of the sky. And you're in a lost world. You're in an undiscovered, unexplored ecosystem, somewhere between Heaven and Earth, filled with forms of life, not all of which have been given names by scientists yet. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
The most servile Negroes are suspect, and every means is used to impress upon them the power of the White Citizens Councils. Even police brutality can be put to good use. An incident in Ruleville, Sunflower County, birthplace of the Council, will illustrate the point. Preston Johns, Negro renter on Senator Eastland's plantation near Blanc, is a "good nigger who knows his place." One day in May 1955, Preston's wife got into a fight with another Negro woman in the Jim Crow section of the Ruleville theater. The manager threw the women out and notified the police. While the police were questioning the women, Preston's daughter came up to see what was happening to her mother. Without warning, a policeman struck her over the head with the butt of his gun. She fell to the pavement bleeding badly. The police left her there. Someone went for her father. When he came up, the police threatened to kill him. Preston left and called Mr. Scruggs, one of Eastland's cronies. After half an hour, Scruggs came and permitted the girl to be lifted from the street and taken to the hospital.

When Scruggs left, he yelled to the Negroes across the street: "You'll see who your friend is. If it wasn't for us Citizens Council members, she'd have near about died." One old Negro answered back, "I been tellin' these niggers Mr. Scruggs and Mr. Eastland is de best friends dey got." A few days later, Senator Eastland came to Ruleville to look the situation over. Many Negroes lined the streets and ~ Bayard Rustin
Honorah Preston quotes by Bayard Rustin
If a healthy person were placed on the other side of a room from a person who was sick with AIDS, the AIDS virus would not be able to drift across the room through the air and infect the healthy person. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
So I'm in the American Secret Service? Damn."
"It was all reported in the press the next day. ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
Democracy: An institution in which the whole is equal to the scum of the parts. ~ Keith Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Keith Preston
It showed a kind of obscenity you see only in nature, an obscenity so extreme that it dissolves imperceptibly into beauty. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
He found Pendergast's cool gaze on him, and he fidgeted. He'd forgotten about those eyes. They made you feel like you had just been stripped of your secrets. ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
A lot of people probably don't realize how difficult it is to stick to that lawyer speak when you're not a lawyer. I see everyone on 'The Good Wife' - everyone, people who have been there since day one - struggling with that language because it is just not how people talk. ~ Carrie Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Carrie Preston
God helps those who realize that they can't help themselves. ~ Preston Sprinkle
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sprinkle
Experiments suggest that if one particle of Ebola enters a person's bloodstream, it can cause a fatal infection. This may explain why many of the medical workers who came down with Ebola couldn't remember making any mistakes that might have exposed them. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
And when Jesus declared, 'It is finished,' He meant it. God's punishment for our sin was paid for, permanently settled, finished - 100 percent. If you have responded in faith to God's free pardon through Jesus, then God will never punish you for your sin. It's finished. No more. If you screw up today or tomorrow (which you will), it's already been paid for through Jesus. 'There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,' Paul said (Rom. 8: 1). None. God will not and cannot condemn you after He has already condemned Jesus for you. It's impossible. God will never be angry with you since His anger was poured out on Jesus. All of it. One hundred percent.
Charis: God's Scandalous Grace for Us (p. 169). ~ Preston Sprinkle
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sprinkle
All that is required of you is an open mind and a little patience. ~ F.K. Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by F.K. Preston
The nonviolent rhythms of the cross meet the melodies of this world with dissonance. I ~ Preston Sprinkle
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sprinkle
The problem with Ebola is that it makes mistakes while it copies itself. The mistakes are actually good for Ebola because they help Ebola change, and as a result of this, as it jumps from one human body to the next, roughly half the time, it's got a mutation. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
The world didn't end with a whimper or a bang. Your life finished in complete silence. Gone in a blink. And then there was nothing. ~ F.K. Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by F.K. Preston
Does a toilet seat get ass? ~ Douglas Preston

Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
The light ones may be killers, the dark ones mild; not the wrappers but the fillers, make cigars or women wild. ~ Keith Preston

Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sturges
Robert Preston in 'The Last Starfighter' had an aura. It was almost a surreal experience meeting him. He exuded charm, warmth and that movie star magnetism that is impossible to describe. ~ Catherine Mary Stewart
Honorah Preston quotes by Catherine Mary Stewart
Fox bought the rights to the book way back when, and there was this attempt by Fox to make a movie out of 'The Hot Zone,' and it tended tragically in a Hollywood disaster involving Robert Redford and Jodie Foster and Ridley Scott. But the rights have been sitting at Fox ever since. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
What the hell was your pal Bertin demanding?" he asked. "Sipping syrup?"

"It's a cocktail he prefers when he gets, ah, overly excited."

"A cocktail?"

"Of sorts. Lemon–lime soda, vodka, codeine in solution, and a Jolly Rancher candy."

"A what?"

"Bertin prefers the watermelon–flavored variety."

D'Agosta shook his head. "Christ. Only in Louisiana."

"Actually, I understand the concoction originated in Houston. ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
'True Blood' is shot on film. It's more like a movie, and they take more days to shoot it, plus it has an hour of content. 'The Good Wife' is network. They're shooting on HD. It moves quicker and they only have forty minutes of content instead of a full hour. Not to mention the difference of shooting, you know, rated-R stuff! ~ Carrie Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Carrie Preston
Because Jesus came to set the captives free, life does not have to be a tireless effort to establish ourselves, justify ourselves, and validate ourselves. ~ Preston Sprinkle
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sprinkle
Gideon," he said, "think for a minute about the qualities that a leader - even a co-leader - is required to have. He's a team player. He's good at inspiring others. He's able to hide his true feelings, put up a false front when necessary. He projects confidence at all times - even if he doesn't feel confident. He can't be a freelancer. And he's certainly not a loner. Now, tell me: do any of these qualities describe you? ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
Writing is a mixed blessing. We, who are addicted, berate ourselves and feel guilty when we don't write and at the same time put it off and hunt for diversions. Why? Because the this that makes us the happiest is also tedious, hard and frustrating. Writing makes us crazy; not writing even crazier. ~ Marcia Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Marcia Preston
You're either the one that creates the automation or you're getting automated. ~ Tom Preston-Werner
Honorah Preston quotes by Tom Preston-Werner
Time has a different quality in a forest, a different kind of flow. Time moves in circles, and events are linked, even if it's not obvious that they are linked. Events in a forest occur with precision in the flow of tree time, like the motions of an endless dance. (p. 12) ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
Directing was easy for me because I was a writer director and did all my directing when I wrote the screenplay. ~ Preston Sturges
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sturges
I don't believe environment has the slightest bit to do with anything - I only believe in ancestral influence. It would have made no difference whether I'd been brought up in a reform school, or on the island of Lesbos. ~ Preston Sturges
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sturges
[Preston] Hotchkis had earned his position by representing San Marino, a tiny, rich, Anglo municipality south of Pasadena that had been tellingly named after a European micro-kingdom. ~ Victor Valle
Honorah Preston quotes by Victor Valle
You cannot stare evil in the face; it has no face. It has no body, no bones, no blood. Any attempt to describe it ends in glibness and self-delusion. ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
Life throws too much crap at us as it is, so why hold onto something negative if we don't have to? ~ Natasha Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Natasha Preston
Two dreams and a cup of coffee later. ~ F.K. Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by F.K. Preston
Doctors generally consider smallpox to be the worst human disease. It is thought to have killed more people than any other infectious pathogen, including the Black Death of the Middle Ages. Epidemiologists think that smallpox killed roughly one billion people during its last hundred years of activity onearth. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
The shudder of fear is as sensual as the shudder of pleasure, if not more so. ~ Douglas Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
By the very nature of his art, which depends on invention and innovation, a story teller must depart from the beaten track and, having done so, occasionally startle and disagree with some of his associates. Healthy disagreement we must have. ~ Preston Sturges
Honorah Preston quotes by Preston Sturges
C.J. had spoken longingly of finding the African termite queen, the glistening white sac that was half a foot long and as thick as a bratwurst, bursting with eggs and creamy insect fat, the queen you ate alive and whole, and she was said to twitch as she went down your throat. (188) ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
The genome could be thought of as a kind of piano with twenty-five thousand keys. In some cases, a few keys may be out of tune, which can cause the music to sound wrong. In others, if one key goes dead the music turns into a cacophony, or the whole piano self-destructs. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
It was as if his life's work had slipped away unfinished before he had even been born. All he could find, at best, were a few remnants of a lost world. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
The boy swelled up, and his skin filled with pockets of blood. In some places, the skin almost separated from the underlying tissue. This happened during the last phase, while he was on the respirator. It is called third spacing. If you bleed into the first space, you bleed into your lungs. If you bleed into the second space, you bleed into your stomach and intestines. If you bleed into the third space, you bleed into the space between the skin and the flesh. The skin puffs up and separates from the flesh like a bag. Peter Cardinal had bled out under his skin. ~ Richard Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Richard Preston
No-one is ever too old to know better. ~ Margaret Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Margaret Preston
The team had discovered the red chamber of the virus at the end of the earth, where the life form had amplified through mothers and their unborn children. ~ Richard Preston

Honorah Preston quotes by Douglas Preston
I played ball for the Hollywood Blues of the Pacific Coast League, and I thought I was going to be a major leaguer. But I was the only one who seemed to think so. ~ Robert Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Robert Preston
The first time I met Ray, I was going to school around the corner from his house. One day, he was playing the piano. I eased up on the porch to listen to him. ~ Billy Preston
Honorah Preston quotes by Billy Preston
Preston smirked. "You're gonna have to stop calling me things like 'gorgeous' and 'beautiful.' I'm gonna get a complex. Why can't I be 'sexy,' or maybe 'irresistible'? ~ Abbi Glines
