Now that I was lying safely in my bed, it had become much easier to be brave. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
You have to know that death is only a step we have to take to reach the other world and live, only in a different way. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
Each tombstone was like the cover of a book that had been sealed forever. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
Moving to America felt as splitting and eternal as death. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
Why doesn't anyone ask me anything about the last two years?" I asked her.
"The answer is very simple. We're afraid to ask because we're afraid of knowing ... Maybe if we don't talk about it, and maybe if we pretend it never happened, it will be forgotten. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
I have tried to understand what crucifixion must feel like. I just know that the pain must be beyond what I have ever experienced. I respect, love, and trust the One who endured all this when He didn't have to. I understand Jesus with my heart, and the rest of the world can think of Him as it will. ~ Marina Nemat
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Nemat
Immaterial art is the strongest because there's no obstacle; there's just energy, and I believe in energy. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
She hauled herself up from the streets, for she was once no more than a courtesan. She is reputed to rule her husband; they say that beneath her fine gowns hangs a prick and her balls clang together like a ring o' bells for the doge has none. ~ Marina Fiorato
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Fiorato
I love Twitter, and my little corner of it is heavily weighted in favour of women, many of them writers: Caitlin Moran, India Knight, Lauren Laverne, Grace Dent, Deborah Orr, Marina Hyde, Suzanne Moore. I look at that list of names and think, 'Here comes the fun - fun that knows its way around a dictionary.' ~ John Niven
Marina Nemat quotes by John Niven
There is no solution. I can see no possibility of peace in my lifetime. So long as they continue with their attacks, we will continue our defenses. We are trapped in tits for tats. It is impossible for someone so sensitive like myself to live life this way. ~ Marina Lewycka
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Lewycka
Sometimes you feel amazing about life and other times you just feel fat and depressed, so I think it's good to be honest about that and to make light of it, I think humour is important, nobody's perfect. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Behind every book for young people and every global product of family entertainment, the hum of boardroom discussion about the politics of the work can be heard. ~ Marina Warner
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Warner
People ask why there are so few female artists who succeed. It's because women are not ready to sacrifice as much as men. Women want a man, they want a family, they want to have children, they want to be loved, and to be an artist. And they can't; it's impossible. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
Who sleeps at night? No one is sleeping.

In the cradle a child is screaming.

An old man sits over his death, and anyone

young enough talks to his love, breathes

into her lips, looks into her eyes. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
It was quiet, the old wood creaking and the snow barely visible outside the stained glass. And I sat down. And I looked up. At this giant room I was in. At this place where thousands of people had sat before me. And alone, at night, in the middle of a New Haven storm, I felt so remarkably, unbelievably safe. ~ Marina Keegan
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Keegan
I am a maid,
My lord, that ne'er before invited eyes,
But have been gazed on like a comet: she speaks,
My lord, that, may be, hath endured a grief
Might equal yours, if both were justly weigh'd.
Though wayward fortune did malign my state,
My derivation was from ancestors
Who stood equivalent with mighty kings:
But time hath rooted out my parentage,
And to the world and awkward casualties
Bound me in servitude.
~Marina, "Pericles ~ Wiliam Shakspeare
Marina Nemat quotes by Wiliam Shakspeare
I turned off my Google alerts in 2009 as I learnt that following yourself on the Internet very quickly becomes unhealthy. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Drink to forget; don't forget to drink. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
A poet's marriage to his time is a forced marriage. A marriage of which - as of any suffered violence - he is ashamed, and from which he tries to tear loose. Poets of the past tear into the past, those of the present into the future, as if time were less time for not being my own! All Soviet poetry is a stake on the future. Solely Mayakovsky, this zealot of his own conscience, this convict of the present day, came to love this present day; overcame, that is, the poet in himself. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
There can be as much joy of giving pleasure as to receive it. ~ Marina Anderson
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Anderson
The seductive invitation of metamorphosis - of turning into something other - has continued to suffuse fantasies of identity; on the one hand holding out a way of escape from humanity, on the other annihilating the self. ~ Marina Warner
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Warner
And soon all of us will sleep under the earth, we who never let each other sleep above it. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
She knew herself to be a word spoken by the sunlight. She laughed at the fear of death. She understood what she was born for and what she was destined to carry out. All this happened while the lightning remained in the sky, a white flash. ~ Marina Dyachenko
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Dyachenko
Somewhere in the night a
human being is drowning. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
True to their history, the English are very domineering and have manipulated it in different ways. I wouldn't say that there was an original, but there is a lot of expurgation in some of the Victorian translations, and there's a lot of additional salacious nonsense in some of them, too. I also like the early French one, much-derided for being fanciful but which is actually very elegantly done. It's very big, very capacious. ~ Marina Warner
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Warner
Trends in culture all serve a purpose and that's always indicative in fashion and music, you can always tell what's going on culturally in the mindset of the young generation if you look at those mediums. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Reading to me has always been like having a conversation with people who wouldn't ask me any personal questions. Instead, they open up their own hearts and tell their secrets to me. ~ Marina Simcoe
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Simcoe
I know wherever you are, there are poems. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
I am the wood frame, the bundle of ox hair, and the creative spark ... my value unhangable. ~ Marina Leigh Duff
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Leigh Duff
Marina sighs. "Love's a tidal wave," she says. "Because it sweeps you off your feet?" I ask. "No. Because it sucks you under and you drown. ~ Jodi Picoult
Marina Nemat quotes by Jodi Picoult
I want to provoke people with thoughts, not by taking my clothes off. It's time to move on from Stripperville. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
I've read every Madonna biography. I've also looked up every pop star to see how they first made it. The biggest thing I learnt was that you have to be pro-active. You can't be scared. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Black as
the centre of an eye, the centre, a blackness
that sucks at light. I love your vigilance
Night, first mother of songs, give me the voice to sing of you
in those fingers lies the bridle of the four winds.
Crying out, offering words of homage to you, I am
only a shell where the ocean is still sounding.
But I have looked too long into human eyes.
Reduce me now to ashes
Night, like a black sun. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
I went over to see Marina two or three or four times a week. I knew as long as I could see the girl I would be all right ... . Soon after, I got a letter from Fay. She and the child were living in a hippie commune in New Mexico. It was a nice place, she said. Marina would be able to breathe there. She enclosed a little drawing the girl had made for me. ~ Charles Bukowski
Marina Nemat quotes by Charles Bukowski
You could say that my life's a mess. But, I'm still looking pretty in this dress. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Don't you know no one can escape the power of creatures reaching out with breath alone? ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
Everyone else is so successful, and I hate them. ~ Marina Keegan
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Keegan
I could draw up a list of about 30 artists who I apparently sound like. From Lady Gaga, to Katy Perry to Lana Del Rey. I don't know if it's because I'm versatile or because production affects how people judge music. I can't wait for a time I can just be classed as myself. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina And The Diamonds
Will you be able to fire this thing?' I whisper to Marina.
'Aim, squeeze, shoot,' Marina whispers back. 'It's pretty intuitive, Six. ~ Pittacus Lore
Marina Nemat quotes by Pittacus Lore
The brother of my grandfather was the patriarch of the Orthodox Church and revered as a saint. So everything in my childhood is about total sacrifice, whether to religion or to communism. This is what is engraved on me. This is why I have this insane willpower. My body is now beginning to be falling apart, but I will do it to the end. I don't care. With me it is about whatever it takes. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
My desk, most loyal friend thank you. You've been with me on every road I've taken. My scar and my protection. ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
We can't, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it's all we have. ~ Marina Keegan
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Keegan
Adam " Lori called loudly enough for me to hear her but not so loud that her voice would carry up to my mom in the marina office- or to her dad who might be listening from their screened porch facing the water.

"I came over to get some tips from the boys about teaching Tammy and Rachel to board. Of course I did not come over here to see you. How could you think such a thing That would be disobedient."

I held up the wax.
"For my own disobedience I have to buff the boat. Then I'm going for a jog."
She tilted her head. Probably her eyes widened but I couldn't see them behind her sunglasses. I hated not being able to see her eyes.
She asked "In this heat?"
I didn't mind jogging in the heat. The heat was a big friendly animal that liked to wrestle and only occasionally sat on me until I lost my breath. Anyway she was missing the point.

I repeated carefully "I am GOING for a JOG."
"I HEARD you the FIRST time " she said. "It's late afternoon in the middle of June. It's ninety-five degrees out here."
"He means he's GOING for a JOG" Rachel and Tammy said at the same time.
"He's GOING for a JOG."
Lori still didn't get it. Normally her blondeness was one of the things I loved about her. At the moment not so much.
Exasperated Cameron told her "Adam wants you to go for a jog too."
She said "Oh "
"If you two airheads have to hook up secretly for very long " Sean said "you're not going to ~ Jennifer Echols
Marina Nemat quotes by Jennifer Echols
I am very clear that I am not a feminist. It puts you into a category and I don't like that. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
Performance has to be mainstream art. This is what I'm fighting for. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
Okay, I think it's time for another distraction" Eight says, disappearing again. He reappears by the outer circle of stones, plants his hands on an upright slab, and pushes hard. All I can do is watch in horror, frozen to the spot. The huge stone wobbles and slowly tips backwards, then the horizontal slab on top falls too, and that's when Eight starts yelling, "Help! Help! The stones are falling over! Stonehenge is falling down!" I will kill him. I clench my fists at my side, which is when I realize I still have a small rock in my hand. I lean down and carefully, pointlessly, return it to its spot. ~ Pittacus Lore
Marina Nemat quotes by Pittacus Lore
Some couples buy pots and pans when they move in together. Ulay and I began planning how to make art together. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
An interesting example is that the worst woman in the book, who is so cruel and violent, is the sorceress in "The Prince of the Black Islands." She's a beautiful young woman, and she has turned her husband into stone from the waist down. A traveling sultan finds him, in his dreadful state, and the man petrified from the waist down tells his sad story ... how his wife comes every afternoon and beats him until the blood runs down. She's just unwontedly, arbitrarily cruel. ~ Marina Warner
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Warner
The big problem of our modern society is that we feel that we are separated from the nature. But it's just the opposite. We are interrelated and our DNA is the same. And only when human beings understand that, the nature will not be obstacle. ~ Marina Abramovic
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Abramovic
If you want to learn about a culture, you look at what buildings the people lived in but you also want to know about their cosmos. ~ Marina Warner
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Warner
I have two foes in the world, twins inextricably interrelated -- the hunger of the hungry and the glut of the glutted! ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
What shall I do, singer and first-born, in a
world where the deepest black is grey,
and inspiration is kept in a thermos?
with all this immensity
in a measured world? ~ Marina Tsvetaeva
Marina Nemat quotes by Marina Tsvetaeva
There's no one particular road that will lead you to success. I think everybody will find it differently. ~ Marina And The Diamonds
