She has that voraciousness about children. She swoops in on them. Even I, in public was a beloved child. She'd parade me into town, smiling and teasing me, tickling me as she spoke with people on the sidewalks. When we got home, she'd trail off to her room like an unfinished sentence, and I would sit outside with my face pressed against her door, and replay the day in my head, searching for clues to what I had done to displease her.

I have one memory that catches in me like a nasty clump of blood. Marian was dead about two years, and my mother had a cluster of friends come over for afternoon drinks. For hours, the child was cooed over, smothered with red lipstick kisses, tidied up with tissues, then lipstick smacked again. I was suppose to be reading in my room, but I sat at the top of the stairs watching.

My mother finally was handed the baby, and she cuddled it ferociously. Oh, how, wonderful it is to hold a baby again! Adora jiggled it on her knee, walked it around the rooms, whispered to it, and I looked down from above like a spiteful little god, the back of my hand placed against my face, imagining how it felt to be cheek to cheek with my mother. ~ Gillian Flynn
Human Accessory quotes by Gillian Flynn
There is only one reason people have children: they're programmed to. Whatever reasons they may have for it - selflessness, wanting to pass something on, having so much love to give - I don't believe they choose children any more than naked mole rats decide to start tunneling. Human beings are basically big complicated Rube Goldberg contraptions constructed by genes to copy themselves, and only as an unintended side effect build mosques, make screwball comedies, and launch interplanetary probes. ~ Meghan Daum
Human Accessory quotes by Meghan Daum
Such threats and promises often succeed in creating stable human hierarchies and mass-cooperation networks, as long as people believe that they reflect the inevitable laws of nature or the divine commands of God, rather than just human whims. All large-scale human cooperation is ultimately based on our belief in imagined orders. These are sets of rules that, despite existing only in our imagination, we believe to be as real and inviolable as gravity. 'If you sacrifice ten bulls to the sky god, the rain will come; if you honour your parents, you will go to heaven; and if you don't believe what I am telling you – you'll go to hell.' As long as all Sapiens living in a particular locality believe in the same stories, they all follow the same rules, making it easy to predict the behaviour of strangers and to organise mass-cooperation networks. Sapiens often use visual marks such as a turban, a beard or a business suit to signal 'you can trust me, I believe in the same story as you'. Our chimpanzee cousins cannot invent and spread such stories, which is why they cannot cooperate in large numbers. ~ Yuval Noah Harari
Human Accessory quotes by Yuval Noah Harari
As a human being you are capable of a higher level of perception than you may now be cognizant of. You are not really who you think you are. There are many selves inside you, not just one. ~ Frederick Lenz
Human Accessory quotes by Frederick Lenz
In these days of high-tech video games, it's remarkable that kids once got incredibly thrilled while pushing little metal racing cars around a cardboard track: The toy car was yours, and you invested it with importance and enhanced it with fantasy and pitied it because it was small, like you were. Such games were weapons against the ennui of endless Saturdays. ~ Roger Ebert
Human Accessory quotes by Roger Ebert
The human mind will not be confined to any limits. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Human Accessory quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
It is only after slavery and prison that the sweetest appreciation of freedom can come. ~ Malcolm X
Human Accessory quotes by Malcolm X
It is not about how much money we make or how big and powerful our work appears to others, it is about the love with which we put into each act of kindness toward another human being. ~ Joyce Vissell
Human Accessory quotes by Joyce Vissell
no recovery from trauma is possible without attending to issues of safety, care for the self, reparative connections to other human beings, and a renewed faith in the universe. The therapist's job is not just to be a witness to this process but to teach the patient how. ~ Janina Fisher
Human Accessory quotes by Janina Fisher
'Mission: Impossible' is fun. But for myself as an artist, I'm really more concerned with the human condition, the human experience, especially from an African American point of view. ~ Ving Rhames
Human Accessory quotes by Ving Rhames
Like the story of the steam drill against John Henry, the machine will be victorious because it doesn't get tired and keeps on going long after a human worker will have dropped dead from exhaustion. The modern-day steam drill is likely to be an AI system, and John Henry is played by the planner, doctor, analyst, stockbroker or accountant who believes that they can process more data and crunch more numbers than the new machine overlords. They can't. ~ Sean A. Culey
Human Accessory quotes by Sean A. Culey
His own opinion, which he does not air, is that the origin of speech lie in song, and the origins of song in the need to fill out with sound the overlarge and rather empty human soul. ~ J.M. Coetzee
Human Accessory quotes by J.M. Coetzee
You are infinitely my superior in merit; all that I know - You have qualities which I had not supposed to exist in such a degree in any human creature. You have some touches of the angel in you, beyond what - not merely beyond what one sees, because one never sees any thing like it - but beyond what one fancies might be. But still I am not frightened. It is not by equality of merit that you can be won. That is out of the question. It is he who sees and worships your merit the strongest, who loves you most devotedly, that has the best right to a return. (326) ~ Jane Austen
Human Accessory quotes by Jane Austen
So he's like a human compass? As far as superpowers go, that's pretty lame. You're like the Caster equivalent of Aquaman. ~ Kami Garcia
Human Accessory quotes by Kami Garcia
Years ago nobody was elected on the economic ticket. It was either the education platform, or it was health or it was other issues. It is only recently that economic values have superceded every other human value. ~ Anita Roddick
Human Accessory quotes by Anita Roddick
I could only get on at all by taking "nature" into my confidence and my account, by treating my monstrous ordeal as a push in a direction unusual, of course, and unpleasant, but demanding, after all, for a fair front, only another turn of the screw of ordinary human virtue. ~ Henry James
Human Accessory quotes by Henry James
People say that the monetary system produces incentive. This may be true in limited areas, but it also produces greed, embezzlement, corruption, pollution, jealousy, anger, crime, war, poverty, tremendous scarcity, and unnecessary human suffering. You have to look at the entire picture. ~ Jacque Fresco
Human Accessory quotes by Jacque Fresco
Sometimes trials...
Bring out the hard-hearted nature of a good person and make him unforgiving.
And, sometimes trials...
Help a socially snubbed person to live a humane life and make him appreciable!
Its called TIME that exposes people truly. ~ Salsabeel
Human Accessory quotes by Salsabeel
The adornment of the body is a human need. I don't see anything superficial about it unless your life becomes very materialistic. ~ David LaChapelle
Human Accessory quotes by David LaChapelle
Human nature is almost unbelievably malleable, responding accurately and contrastingly to contrasting cultural conditions. ~ Margaret Mead
Human Accessory quotes by Margaret Mead
There are cases in which a man would be ashamed not to have been imposed upon. There is a confidence necessary to human intercourse, and without which men are often more injured by their own suspicions than they would be by the perfidy of others. ~ Edmund Burke
Human Accessory quotes by Edmund Burke
The only debatable issue, it seems to me, is whether it is more ridiculous to turn to experts in social theory for general well-confirmed propositions, or to the specialists in the great religions and philosophical systems for insights into fundamental human values. ~ Noam Chomsky
Human Accessory quotes by Noam Chomsky
Wait, Saturday night?" The ladder-backed chair creaked and I looked up as he leaned forward to eye me in growing suspicion. "I thought you stayed home."
I shrugged and raised one eyebrow at him. "I thought I was human. ~ Rachel Vincent
Human Accessory quotes by Rachel Vincent
I am going to do my best to try to create a country in which children are not living in poverty, in which kids can go to college, in which old people have health care. Will I succeed? I can't guarantee you that, but I can tell you that from a human point of view it is better to show up than to give up. ~ Bernie Sanders
Human Accessory quotes by Bernie Sanders
I think that this necessity to travel, to see, it's part of human nature. ~ Fernando Perez
Human Accessory quotes by Fernando Perez
Peace is what every human being is craving for, and it can be brought about by humanity through the child. ~ Maria Montessori
Human Accessory quotes by Maria Montessori
God is not interested merely in the freedom of black men, and brown men, and yellow men; God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Human Accessory quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
He has the mistaken notion that a concern with grace is a concern with exalted human behavior, that it is a pretentious concern. It is, however, simply a concern with the human reaction to that which, instant by instant, gives life to the soul. It is a concern with a realization that breeds charity and with the charity that breeds action. Often the nature of grace can be made plain only by describing its absence. ~ Flannery O'Connor
Human Accessory quotes by Flannery O'Connor
My heart gave a weird little flutter. I'd been around Lexi for over a month, listening to her gush over boys, watching her point out the "gorgeous" ones. I understood human beauty now, and I'd even reached the point where I could nudge Lexi toward a cute guy, and she would agree that he was hot, but I still didn't get the fascination.
Maybe all the boy-watching had finally sunk in, because this stranger was, to use two of Lexi's favorite words, absolutely gorgeous. ~ Julie Kagawa
Human Accessory quotes by Julie Kagawa
Prayer can solve more problems, alleviate more suffering, prevent more transgression, and bring about greater peace and contentment in the human soul than can be obtained in any other way. ~ Thomas S. Monson
Human Accessory quotes by Thomas S. Monson
The calamities of tragedy do not simply happen, nor are they sent; they proceed mainly from actions, and those the actions of men.We see a number of human beings placed in certain circumstances; and we see, arising from the co-operation of their characters in these circumstances, certain actions. These actions beget others, and these others beget others again, until this series of inter-connected deeds leads by an apparently inevitable sequence to a catastrophe. ~ A. C. Bradley
Human Accessory quotes by A. C. Bradley
How could the Buddha have believed that being incarnated as a human being was fortunate? Had he ever been to Georgia? ~ Brenda Peterson
Human Accessory quotes by Brenda Peterson
The only time they appear human is when you have a knife at their throats. The instant you remove it, they fall back into animality. Obscenity. ~ Jack Henry Abbott
