Happy is the bride the sun shines on. ~ C.S. Forester
Maria Hornblower quotes by C.S. Forester
Left to their own devices, women would stop having sex after they have children. There's no evolutionary need for it. Our brains know it, our body knows it. Who feels sexy during the slog of motherhood, the middle-aged fat roll and the flattening butt? ~ Maria Semple
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Semple
Finally, he raised his hand and touched his fingers to his forehead. "I can give you this." He lowered his hand and pressed the tops of his fingers to the center of his chest. "And I can give you this. But not the rest. It's not who I am. Or what I am. ~ Ada Maria Soto
Maria Hornblower quotes by Ada Maria Soto
The trucks roll monotonously onwards, the shouts are monotonous, the falling rain is monotonous. It falls on our heads and on the heads of the dead men up at the front of the truck, on the body of the little recruit with a wound that is far too big for his hip, it's falling on Kemmerich's grave, and it's falling in our hearts. ~ Erich Maria Remarque
Maria Hornblower quotes by Erich Maria Remarque
Why is she here at Herot Hall, where at any second something bad could come down the mountain, or tunnel up from below? Monsters. There's a whole world filled with monsters. They everywhere ~ Maria Dahvana Headley
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Dahvana Headley
The plan of this world is infinite similarity and yet infinite variety. ~ Dinah Maria Murlock Craik
Maria Hornblower quotes by Dinah Maria Murlock Craik
In this day and age it's really stupid to be stupid about financial matters. It doesn't do you any good to make money if you don't know what to do with it other than spend it. ~ Maria Shriver
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Shriver
He is right. We are not youth any longer. We don't want to take the world by storm. We are fleeing. We fly from ourselves. From our life. We were eighteen and had begun to love life and the world; and we had to shoot it to pieces. The first bomb, the first explosion, burst in our hearts. We are cut off from activity, from striving, from progress. We believe in such things no longer, we believe in war. ~ Erich Maria Remarque
Maria Hornblower quotes by Erich Maria Remarque
What would you do, God, if I died? ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Maria Hornblower quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
The first stop on this crazy train is Kindergarten Junction, and nobody gets off until it pulls into Harvard Station. ~ Maria Semple
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Semple
When we reached the beach, Leif fell to his knees with a dramatic cry. "Solid ground! I'll never take you for granted again."
"Are you going to kiss the sand?" I asked.
"Don't be ridiculous."
"Now I'M the one being silly?"
"Yes. ~ Maria V. Snyder
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria V. Snyder
Have you ever heard that the brain is a discounting mechanism? ~ Maria Semple
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Semple
He may have known the surface of the moon, memorized the names of the lunar maria, but Miel had done more than that with him. She'd learned him, but left room for the way he was still learning himself. She knew the shape of him, every place that was shadow and every place that reflected light, without deciding he was hers to name. ~ Anna-Marie McLemore
Maria Hornblower quotes by Anna-Marie McLemore
The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,as if orchards were dying high in space.Each leaf falls as if it were motioning "no."And tonight the heavy earth is fallingaway from all other stars in the loneliness.We're all falling. This hand here is falling.And look at the other one. It's in them all.And yet there is Someone, whose handsinfinitely calm, holding up all this falling. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Maria Hornblower quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
Without economic development, any potential for political openness and freedom will be questionable. ~ Jose Maria Aznar
Maria Hornblower quotes by Jose Maria Aznar
Magic happens on the threshold of the forbidden. ~ Maria Tatar
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Tatar
Early this morning I read about your autumn, and all the colors you brought into your letter were changed back in my feelings and filled my mind to the brim with strength and radiance.
Yesterday, while I was admiring the dissolving brightness of autumn here, you were walking through that other autumn back home, which is painted on red wood, as this one's painted on silk. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Maria Hornblower quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
After being on the court for six hours, being on TV is very glamorous and fun for me. But tennis is always going to be my priority. It's not going to be this thing when all of a sudden TV will get in the way of that. ~ Maria Sharapova
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Sharapova
When you let your intuition go wild, it doesn't usually end well. But I only learned that later on. ~ Maria M.
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria M.
The invisible storehouse in nothingness, called memory. ~ Erich Maria Remarque
Maria Hornblower quotes by Erich Maria Remarque
A man who sells his conscience for his interest will sell it for his pleasure. A man who will betray his country will betray his friend. ~ Maria Edgeworth
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Edgeworth
We search for innovation. Afraid of discovering something completely different. After all - there is comfort in knowing that it all ends well. ~ Maria Lehtman
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Lehtman
If people took some simple pleasure in reality (which is entirely independent of time), they would never have needed to come up with the idea that they could ever again lose anything with which they had truly bonded. No constellation is as steadfast, no accomplishment as irrevocable as a connection between human beings which, at the very moment it becomes visible, works more forcefully in those invisible depths where our existence is as lasting as gold lodged in stone, more constant than a star. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Maria Hornblower quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
I don't believe in gutter politics. I don't believe in gutter journalism. ~ Maria Shriver
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Shriver
She saw none of them in their natural state. She asserts that though there may be women distinguished as writers in England, there are no ladies who have any great conversational and political influence in society, of that kind which, during the old regime, was obtained in France by what they would call their femmes marquantes2, such as Madame de Tencin, Madame de Deffand, Mademoiselle de l'Espinasse. This remark stung me to the quick, for my country and for myself, and raised in me a foolish, vainglorious emulation, an ambition false in its objects, and unsuited to the manners, domestic habits, and public virtue of our country. I ~ Maria Edgeworth
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Edgeworth
I left Kiki in the yard, and fetched my pick and brushes.
She lifted her leg and I dislodged the stone then pulled the shedding blade through her copper hair. After a while, I removed my cloak. When I finished, clumps of horse hair clung to my sweaty clothes.
You're beautiful and I need a bath, I said to her. Pasture or stall?
Stall. Nap time.
And what about your snooze before I groomed you?
Pre nap. ~ Maria V. Snyder
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria V. Snyder
Life goes so fast, and there is so much to do. But the moments that have enriched my life the most came when I slowed down and connected with the people I care about. ~ Maria Bello
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Bello
Memory and motive are the two edges of the blade by which we slice experience out of events and carve out history - personal, political, civilizational - from the trunk of life. Both are highly selective - memory retrospectively so and motive prospectively. ~ Maria Popova
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Popova
Belinda is not quite so great a philosopher as I imagined. ~ Maria Edgeworth
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Edgeworth
All I want to do is be at Hogwarts with you, eating turkey legs in the great hall while listening to the carols of the ghosts gliding past us. Then maybe we can go to Hogsmeade to get a butterbeer. ~ Maria Elena
Maria Hornblower quotes by Maria Elena
Be ahead of all parting, as if it had already happened,
like winter, which even now is passing.
For beneath the winter is a winter so endless
that to survive it at all is a triumph of the heart.

Be forever dead in Eurydice, and climb back singing.
Climb praising as you return to connection.
Here among the disappearing, in the realm of the transient,
be a ringing glass that shatters as it rings.

Be. And, at the same time, know what it is not to be.
The emptiness inside you allows you to vibrate
in full resonance with your world. Use it for once.

To all that has run its course, and to the vast unsayable
numbers of beings abounding in Nature,
add yourself gladly, and cancel the cost. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Maria Hornblower quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke
