Everest has always been a magnet for kooks, publicity seekers, hopeless romantics and others with a shaky hold on reality. ~ Jon Krakauer
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Jon Krakauer
I may have loved to read my romance and smut novels, but I was not blinded by the 'fiction' part of it all. I knew the difference between what was real and what came from a hopeless romantic's imagination. ~ Christine Zolendz
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Christine Zolendz
We're all misfits here," he says, almost proudly. "That's why I started this squat, after all. For people like us, who don't fit in anywhere else. Halfies and homos and hopeless romantics, the outcast and outrageous and terminally weird. That's where art comes from, Jimmy, my friend. From our weirdnesses and our differences, from our manic fixations, our obsessions, our passions. From all those wild and wacky things that make each of us unique. ~ Terri Windling
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Terri Windling
Oh yes, We've all danced to this particular tune at one time in our lives. In my experience, the majority of women are hopeless romantics, believing that, in time, he'll realise how wonderful we are, and fall in love with us ... ~ Catherine Sanderson
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Catherine Sanderson
Erotic Romance authors are just hopeless romantics with a dirty mind. ~ Audri Nichols
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Audri Nichols
May our twilights mix together
like breath and breathlessness. ~ Sanober Khan
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Sanober Khan
Lady Sarah steps in, wearing her nightclothes under a fluffy ivory robe and a chastising expression. Behind her glasses, her eyes narrow on Henry.
"So this is how it's going to be, then? Married only a few days and I already have to search the palace to drag my husband to bed?"
Henry goes to Sarah, like an invisible rope is reeling him to her. "Dragging me to your bed is something you'll never have to do, love. You can even tie me there whenever you like, and I'll be happy to reciprocate."
He kisses her mouth, as she blushes deep and bright.
She leans back. "Then why are you down here instead of up there with me?"
"There was an emergency."
"What kind of an emergency?"
"You're not going to believe it."
"Try me."
"Logan and Ellie are fucking."
She automatically glances at me, and her cheeks deepen to a shade of crimson. "I'm sure there's a more delicate way to word that, Henry."
Henry nods, soberly. "You're right, I'm sorry. Let me try again: Logan and Ellie are humping, like insatiable randy bunnies, all over the palace."
Sarah shakes her head. "You're hopeless."
The Prince grins broadly. "It's part of my charm."
"What am I going to do with you?"
Henry kisses her again. "Take me to bed. Obviously. ~ Emma Chase
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Emma Chase
When you feel hopeless, wait, a transformation of self is on the horizon. ~ Janet Homes
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Janet Homes
In the present age, man proves his separation from his Creator by his spirit of self-sufficienc y and positive rejection of God. The present issue between God and man is one of whether man will accept God's estimate of him, abandon his hopeless self-struggle, and cast himself only on God who alone is sufficient to accomplish his needed transformation. ~ Lewis Sperry Chafer
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Lewis Sperry Chafer
How can God be so cruel to grow love in such hopeless places? ~ Fiona Paul
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Fiona Paul
I didn't know why I felt so… hopeless, but I did. I wanted to absorb his words and take them to heart, but a larger part of me didn't want that. What was the point? I filled a void as his friend. Keyword: friend. ~ Mariana Zapata
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Mariana Zapata
I'm not hopeless, that's the problem. I'm too hopeful, if anything ... I'm so thick-headed it's taken me this long to give up on men, but I can't give up completely, you know? So I ... I channel all my hope into an idea, to someone who can't reject me because he isn't real! ~ Shannon Hale
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Shannon Hale
I felt exhausted, and worried, and friendless and hopeless and everything-else-less. ~ Philip Pullman
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Philip Pullman
The world as we know it, cruel, dark and hopeless, have gifted us one more reason why, as a species, shoud we accept the fact that we're living in absolute ignorance. One more chunk of food for our fears and desperations. One more nightmarish and haunting thought for our dreams. ~ Mladen Đorđević
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Mladen Đorđević
Only boldness can deliver from fear. And if the risk is not taken, the meaning of life is somehow violated, and the whole future is condemned to hopeless staleness. ~ C.G. Jung
Hopeless Romantics quotes by C.G. Jung
Hopeless. Freak. Elephant. Pitiful ~ Donna Cooner
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Donna Cooner
The final conclusion of the absurdist protest is, in fact, the rejection of suicide and persistence in that hopeless encounter between human questioning and the silence of the universe. ~ Albert Camus
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Albert Camus
The real romantics imagine greying and sagging and wrinkling as the deepening of something sacred. ~ Ann Voskamp
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Ann Voskamp
I went to say no, but I winced as I pulled my tooth out of my lip.
I was absolutely hopeless. In a two minute period my front curls had
started to go straight due to my constant brushing them behind my ears
and I was pretty sure my lip was bleeding. Frustrated I pushed myself off of
the couch with a huff and walked around the glass coffee table to head for
the kitchen.
"I've made you angry."
"No."
Darren got up and cut me off in the middle of the room. "Yes, I did.
You're angry with me."
"No, not with you."
"Then what's wrong?"
"I'm angry with myself. ~ Kaitlin Scott
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Kaitlin Scott
The Devil's Rose

You would never take a rose from a beast.
If his callous hand were to hold out a scarlet flower, his grip unaffected by pricking thorns, you would shrink from the gift and refuse it. I know that is what you would do.

But the cunning beast will have his beauty.

He hunts not in hopeless pursuit, for fear would have you sprint all the day long. Thus, he turns toward the shadows and clutches the rosebud, crunching and twisting until every delicate petal is detached. One falls not far from your feet, and you notice the red spot in the snow.

The color sparkles in the sunlight, catching your curious eye. No beast stands in sight; there is nothing to fear, so you dare retrieve the lone petal. The touch of temptation is velvet against your thumb. It carries a scent you bring to your nose, and both eyes close to float on a cloud of perfume.

As your lashes lift, another scarlet drop stains the snow at a near distance. A glance around perceives no danger, and so your footprints scar the snowflakes to retrieve another rosy leaflet as soft and sweet as the first. Your eyes shine with flecks of golden greed at the discovery of more discarded petals, and you blame the wind for scattering them mere footprints apart. All you want is a few, so you step and snatch, step and snatch, step and snatch.

Soon, there is enough velvet to rub against your cheek like a silken kerchief. Your collection of one-plus ~ Richelle E. Goodrich
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Richelle E. Goodrich
i am hopelessly in love with a moment
that has not come yet

it exists
somewhere
some place
just not here
just not now ~ Aditya Kandari
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Aditya Kandari
Youth is the period in which a man can be hopeless. The end of every episode is the end of the world. But the power of hoping through everything, the knowledge that the soul survives its adventures, that great inspiration comes to the middle-aged. ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Gilbert K. Chesterton
Some people see Baltimore as a hopeless place. Some have even made a lot of money on it. ~ Martin O'Malley
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Martin O'Malley
Standing is stupid,
Crawling's a curse,
Skipping is silly,
Walking is worse.
Hopping is hopeless,
Jumping's a chore,
Sitting is senseless,
Leaning's a bore.
Running's ridiculous,
Jogging's insane-
Guess I'll go upstairs and
Lie down again. ~ Shel Silverstein
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Shel Silverstein
I lived in a really dark place. I wasn't safe in my own mind. I woke up every morning hoping to die and then spent the rest of the day wondering if maybe I was already dead because I couldn't even tell the difference. ~ Tahereh Mafi
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Tahereh Mafi
The story thread suddenly dropped in a hopeless snarl, just as he was about to get it through the needle's eye of the first line. ~ Cornell Woolrich
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Cornell Woolrich
The world will be brighter and wiser without religions, but it will surely be darker and more hopeless without God! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
I understood him. He wanted to die at home. He didn't want to be going someplace all the time for the sake of a hopeless hope. He wanted to die as himself out of his life. He didn't want his death to be the end of a technological process. ~ Wendell Berry
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Wendell Berry
This was hopeless. In a novel, Adrian wouldn't just have accepted things as they were put to him. What was the point of having a situation worthy of fiction if the protagonist didn't behave as he would have done in a book? Adrian should have gone snooping, or saved up his pocket money and employed a private detective; perhaps all four of us should have gone off on a Quest to Discover the Truth. Or would that have been less like literature and too much like a kids' story? ~ Julian Barnes
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Julian Barnes
Love for perishing souls inspired Abraham's prayer. While he loathed the sins of that corrupt city, he desired that the sinners might be saved. His deep interest for Sodom shows the anxiety that we should feel for the impenitent. We should cherish hatred of sin, but pity and love for the sinner. All around us are souls going down to ruin as hopeless, as terrible, as that which befell Sodom. Every day the probation of some is closing. Every hour some are passing beyond the reach of mercy. And where are the voices of warning and entreaty to bid the sinner flee from this fearful doom? Where are the hands stretched out to draw him back from death? Where are those who with humility and persevering faith are pleading with God for him? ~ Ellen G. White
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Ellen G. White
It was the helplessness that scared the both of us. ~ Lois Lowry
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Lois Lowry
Like a baseball game, wars are not over till they are over. Wars don't run on a clock like football. No previous generation was so hopelessly unrealistic that this had to be explained to them. ~ Thomas Sowell
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Thomas Sowell
A hopeless man is a very desperate and dangerous man, almost a dead man. ~ Robert F. Kennedy
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Robert F. Kennedy
That is why all romantics are anti-Voltairean, even Michelet, whose political fervor ought to have made him stand aligned with Voltaire; and that is why, on the other hand, all the minds which accept the world and recognize its irony and indifference are Voltairean. ~ Voltaire
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Voltaire
Just as there are broken people, there are broken places on this earth. Some have always been broken. All cities have such neighborhoods at their edges, and this city is all edges ... block after block of bleakly hopeless outskirts.
People don't bury dead cities. They abandon them. They abandon them to the poorest of the poor, to the lost and the doomed. ~ Robert Dunbar
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Robert Dunbar
I wish that I could make a world of my own
Where women chase their dreams instead of hopeless relationships to prove their worth.
Where women are loved for their brains and not for the size of their waists.
Where women are judged based on their thoughts; instead of what they choose to put on their skin.
Where women are no more object for sex or materials to promote nudity but to be respected and much more appreciated.
I wish I could make a world of my own; where women could save themselves and build castles from the breaks that have been thrown at them … ~ Samiha Totanji
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Samiha Totanji
Of Course God does not consider you hopeless. If He did, He would not be moving you to seek Him (and He obviously is) ... Continue seeking Him with seriousness. Unless He wanted you, you would not be wanting Him. ~ C.S. Lewis
Hopeless Romantics quotes by C.S. Lewis
But I would fight for Darian. Sacrifice be damned, selfish or not, hopeless or not, I would fight for Darian.
I had not expectations of success, but I would try anyway, with all my meagre strength.
For Darian and for me, for my right to try, and his right to have me, and because I wanted him. ~ Alexis Hall
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Alexis Hall
And once again in my new world full of heartache and lies, this hopeless boy somehow finds a way to make me smile. ~ Colleen Hoover
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Colleen Hoover
Thinking that we can find some lasting pleasure and avoid pain is what in Buddhism is called samsara, a hopeless cycle that goes round and round endlessly and causes us to suffer greatly. ~ Pema Chodron
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Pema Chodron
I've always thought Anne-Marie Slaughter would make a fantastic United States Senator or something. She's a real intellectual, but she's got enormous communicative skills and she's got government experience. The thing that drives me slightly crazy is the way we think about intellectuals as wooly, hopeless, arrogant, self-deceived, incapable. ~ Michael Ignatieff
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Michael Ignatieff
Insane", he says simply. "Hopeless. The king is a saint and cannot rule, and his son his a devil and should not. ~ Philippa Gregory
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Philippa Gregory
If capitalist realism is so seamless, and if current forms of resistance are so hopeless and impotent, where can an effective challenge come from? A moral critique of capitalism, emphasizing the ways in which it leads to suffering, only reinforces capitalist realism. Poverty, famine and war can be presented as an inevitable part of reality, while the hope that these forms of suffering could be eliminated easily painted as naive utopianism. Capitalist realism can only be threatened if it is shown to be in some way inconsistent or untenable; if, that is to say, capitalism's ostensible 'realism' turns out to be nothing of the sort. ~ Mark Fisher
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Mark Fisher
Let us imagine a coming generation with such intrepidity of vision, with such a heroic penchant for the tremendous; let us imagine the bold stride of these dragon-slayers, the proud audacity with which they turn their back on all the weakling's doctrines of optimism in order to 'live resolutely' in wholeness and fullness: would it not be necessary for the tragic man of such a culture, in view of his self-education for seriousness and terror, to desire a new art, the art of metaphysical comfort, to desire tragedy as his own proper Helen, and to exclaim with Faust:

Should not my longing overleap the distance
And draw the fairest form into existence?"

"Would it not be necessary?"--No, thrice no! O you young romantics: it would not be necessary! But it is highly probably that it will end that way, that you end that way--namely, "comforted," as it is written, in spite of all self-education for seriousness and terror, "comforted metaphysically"--in sum, as romantics end, as Christians. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
When weary with the long day's care,
And earthly change from pain to pain,
And lost, and ready to despair,
Thy kind voice calls me back again
O my true friend, I am not lone
While thou canst speak with such a tone!

So hopeless is the world without,
The world within I doubly prize;
Thy world where guile and hate and doubt
And cold suspicion never rise;
Where thou and I and Liberty
Have undisputed sovereignty.

What matters it that all around
Danger and grief and darkness lie,
If but within our bosom's bound
We hold a bright unsullied sky,
Warm with ten thousand mingled rays
Of suns that know no winter days?

Reason indeed may oft complain
For Nature's sad reality,
And tell the suffering heart how vain
Its cherished dreams must always be;
And Truth may rudely trample down
The flowers of Fancy newly blown.

But thou art ever there to bring
The hovering visions back and breathe
New glories o'er the blighted spring
And call a lovelier life from death,
And whisper with a voice divine
Of real worlds as bright as thine.

I trust not to thy phantom bliss,
Yet still in evening's quiet hour
With never-failing thankfulness I
welcome thee, benignant power,
Sure solacer of human cares
And brighter hope when hope despairs. ~ Emily Bronte
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Emily Bronte
I'm an amalgam of the 19th-century romantics and the beat poets. ~ Roy Harper
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Roy Harper
Oh, that feeling of hopeless grief and just wanting the pain to stop. ~ Liane Moriarty
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Liane Moriarty
Overthinking can lead to worrying which leads to anxiety. Anxiety can at times be crippling, leave people frozen and unable to act. Overthinking can also lead to depression. Either of these can leave you unable to focus, feeling hopeless, and irritable. ~ Brien Blatt
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Brien Blatt
But that wasn't why the boy, whose name was Will but who also answered to "Useless" and "Hopeless" and "Snot-Face" and "Sniveler" (at least when the alchemist was the one calling to him), felt sorry for himself. ~ Lauren Oliver
Hopeless Romantics quotes by Lauren Oliver
I read it: "A man earned daily for 5 days and 3 times as much as he paid for his board, after which he was obliged to be idle 4 days," it said. "Upon counting his money after paying for his board he found that he had 2 ten-doller bills and 4 dollers. How much did he pay for the board, and what were his wages?"
"All right. Think now," Weaver said. "How would you begin to solve it? What's your X?"
I thought. Very hard. For quite some time. About the man and his meager wages and shabby boardinghouse and lonely life. "Where did he work?" I finally asked.
"What? It doesn't matter, Matt. Just assign an X to-"
"A mill, I bet," I said, picturing the man's threadbare clothing, his worn shoes. "A woolen mill. Why do you think he was obliged to be idle?"
"I don't know why. Look, just-"
"I bet he got sick," I said, clutching Weaver's arm. "Or maybe business wasn't good, and his boss had no work for him. I wonder if he had a family in the country. It would be a terrible thing, wouldn't it, if he had children to feed and no work? Maybe his wife was poorly, too. And I bet he had..."
"Damn it, Mattie, this is algebra, not composition!" Weaver said, glaring at me.
"Sorry," I said, feeling like a hopeless case. ~ Jennifer Donnelly
