The tasks I set out for myself are what I do to beat the perfect pointlessness of life. ~ Henry Rollins
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Henry Rollins
the truth was that I had become a secret agent because I could not bear for another minute the pointlessness of life in the real world. ~ Charles McCarry
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Charles McCarry
What is meditation? ... It is fleeing from the self, it is a short escape of the agony of being a self, it is a short numbing of the senses against the pain and the pointlessness of life. The same escape, the same short numbing is what the driver of an ox-cart finds in the inn, drinking a few bowls of rice wine or fermented coconut-milk. ~ Hermann Hesse
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Hermann Hesse
A painter should begin every canvas with a wash of black, because all things in nature are dark except where exposed by the light. ~ Leonardo Da Vinci
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Leonardo Da Vinci
One big secret about succeeding in the new year lies in concentrating more on things that matter most in life, and walking away from those things that are of no value or use. ~ Bamigboye Olurotimi
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Bamigboye Olurotimi
Life has changed a lot, you know. You didn't used to get all this food inside food inside food when I was a girl. The other day I was eating a mushroom and found it had been stuffed with prawns. I've got so many misgivings over this craze, Boy. It's flying in the face of nature. ~ Helen Oyeyemi
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Helen Oyeyemi
Reading was a huge part of my life as a child - we were a family of storytellers. ~ Sue Monk Kidd
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Sue Monk Kidd
To want a gift and not receive it,that is a life of torture. To have a gift and lose it--that is eternal hell. ~ J. Scott Featherstone
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by J. Scott Featherstone
It kept coming back to joy-- how could I live a life filled with it? And always, the answer that came back to me was "Write."

... I am here because of the indigenous people of this country, because of the enslaved people who were here before me, the young people of the civil rights movements who fought hard to get me to this moment.

My biggest responsibility is to recognize that I am part of the continuum, that I didn't just appear and start writing stuff down. I'm writing stuff down because Andre Lorde wrote stuff down, because James Baldwin wrote stuff down... and all the people who came before me -- set the stage for my work. I have to keep all of that in my heart as I move through the world, not only for the deep respect I have for them, but also for my own strength.

So my advice to other young writers: Read widely. Study other writers. Be thoughtful, Then go out and do the work of changing the form, finding your own voice, and saying what you need to say. Be fearless. And care.

The fact that young people continue to rise brings me such joy. They are where I look to find my hope.

-- "Continue to Rise: A Conversation with Jacqueline Woodson ~ Glory Edim
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Glory Edim
A loose end - that's what we woman call it, when we are overwhelmed by the care of small children, the weight of small tasks, a life in which we fall into bed at the end of the day exhausted from being all things to all people. ~ Anna Quindlen
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Anna Quindlen
No, it is better not to risk a second interview. I shall always look back on this talk with you as one of the finest things in my life. Really. I mean this. We can never repeat. It has done me real good, and there we had better leave it."

"That's rather a sad view of life, surely."

"Things so often get spoiled."

"I know," flashed Helen. "But people don't. ~ E.M. Forster
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by E.M. Forster
It doesn't matter how "successful" each of us is in life. We're all doomed to die. Why can't anyone else see that? ~ Alan Moore
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Alan Moore
From eternity to eternity, the beauty of God is pervasive and practical. Ask him to open the eyes of your heart (Ephesians 1:18). Give your life to this quest - seeing and savoring more and more of the happifying beauty of God. ~ John Piper
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by John Piper
All of it was proof that God would always have the last word when it came to life-and-death situations. ~ Karen Kingsbury
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Karen Kingsbury
I should have remembered that when one is going to lead an entirely new life, one requires regular and wholesome meals. ~ Oscar Wilde
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Oscar Wilde
Sadness and boredom were more bearable than the effort of living a normal life. Perhaps the idea of death began to hover over her during that period, as a kind of higher order of lassitude in which she would not have to move the blood in her veins or the air in her lungs; her repose would be absolute- not to think, not to feel, not to be. ~ Isabel Allende
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Isabel Allende
Any man who talks about his love affairs thereby proves he is ignorant of love and is moved only by vanity. ~ Stendhal
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Stendhal
Feminism has never been about getting a job for one woman. It's about making life more fair for women everywhere. It's not about a piece of the existing pie; there are too many of us for that. It's about baking a new pie. ~ Gloria Steinem
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Gloria Steinem
Committee - a group of men who keep minutes and waste hours. ~ Milton Berle
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Milton Berle
If the meaning of life has become doubtful, if one's relations to others and to oneself do not offer security, then fame is one means to silence one's doubts. It has a function to be compared with that of the Egyptian pyramids or the Christian faith in immortality: it elevates one's individual life from its limitations and instability to the plane of indestructability; if one's name is known to one's contemporaries and if one can hope that it will last for centuries, then one's life has meaning and significance by this very reflection of it in the judgments of others. ~ Erich Fromm
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Erich Fromm
Our sphere of influence should reflect righteousness ~ Sunday Adelaja
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Sunday Adelaja
I suppose I'm very aware of time and of memories and of enjoying life ... not just doing the right thing and being a useful person, which I certainly wanna be and believe that I am. I hold onto my family really tight and try to be as good a woman as I can be in my life. ~ Angelina Jolie
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Angelina Jolie
As an explorer, I know firsthand there are many places in the ocean so full of life that they should be protected. Coral reefs and mangrove coastlines are stressed already by climate change and ocean acidification, and poor planning will just make their plight worse. ~ Philippe Cousteau, Jr.
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Philippe Cousteau, Jr.
My life has always been with my dad. Since I can remember, I was raised by my father my entire life. So he's kind of been that mom and father figure - always. ~ Apolo Ohno
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Apolo Ohno
There he is like butter on water, and not like the unchurned, easily diluted milk of undisciplined humanity. Fulfilling one's earthly responsibilities need not separate man from God, provided he maintains mental uninvolvement with egotistical desires and plays his part in life as a willing instrument of the Divine. There ~ Paramahansa Yogananda
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Paramahansa Yogananda
Some people are incapable of perceiving in the object of their contemplation the very thing that gives it its intrinsic life and breath, ~ Muriel Barbery
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Muriel Barbery
O people who take pleasure in a life that will vanish, falling in love with a fading shadow is sheer stupidity ~ Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya
At least I was capable of knowing there was some other kind of life possible, even if I was having trouble achieving it. They believed that the way they were living was the only kind of life that existed. They had no imagination to envision anything else, and no desire to reach it. I felt sorry for them. I still do sometimes, although that doesn't mean their constant idiocy isn't capable of driving me to the brink of madness. They never have learned from their mistakes. It would probably be easier on everyone if I stopped expecting them to. ~ Damien Echols
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Damien Echols
The job of a good dog was ultimately to be with them, remaining by their sides no matter what course their lives might take. All I could do now was offer him comfort, the assurance that as he left this life he was not alone but rather was tended by the dog who loved him more than anything in the whole world. ~ W. Bruce Cameron
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by W. Bruce Cameron
prepared to make the ultimate wartime sacrifice that most governments demand of their able-bodied citizens, but his was one that regarded his life as of lesser value than the lives of whites making the same sacrifice. ~ Ralph Ellison
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Ralph Ellison
Perhaps the happiest moment of my life was then, when I saw that our line didn't break and that the enemy's did. ~ Rutherford B. Hayes
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Rutherford B. Hayes
They're here to get you," Mom says through a sob. "My sweet, the love of my life, they're here to get you. ~ James Dashner
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by James Dashner
Benchmark against the top performing movers and shakers in your game. What are the skills required to achieve excellence in your area of specialty as a leader? How are you managing your vision and mission? Do you demonstrate a life lived with clear goals and targets? How are you providing direction, influence and developing others to lead? What is the evidence of the good leadership of your team? ~ Archibald Marwizi
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Archibald Marwizi
One of Freud's most important insights is that human beings have a strong unconscious tendency to retain these patterns during their lifetime, recreating over and over again the characteristic experiences of their inner world, whether they be positive or negative. Regardless of the discomfort or dysfunction they may cause, these experiences are reassuringly familiar, having been laid down early in life. ~ Catherine Sandler
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Catherine Sandler
He gathered me closer, kissed my neck, then spoke in a low voice next to my ear. I figure, see, if you find yourself getting more attached to the two of us than you planned, maybe you won't think about picking up and leaving to start another life somewhere else. ~ Jenn Bennett
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Jenn Bennett
[I]n order to raise a soul to the highest perfection, He allows it to pass through dryness, brambles, and combats, causing it thereby to honor the times of weariness in the life of His Son, Our Lord, who suffered various kinds of anguish and abandonment. ~ Vincent De Paul
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Vincent De Paul
Real artists take the misery and sadness of life and translate it into art. ~ Josh Peck
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Josh Peck
It doesn't matter how far you might rise. At some point you are bound to stumble ... If you're constantly pushing yourself higher ... the law of averages, not to mention the Myth of Icarus, predicts that you will at some point fall. And when you do I want you to know this, remember this: There is no such thing as failure. Failure is just life trying to move us in another direction. ~ Oprah Winfrey
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Oprah Winfrey
Compared to men writers of like distinction and years of life, few women writers have had lives of unbroken productivity, or leave behind a 'body of work.' Early beginnings, then silence; or clogged late ones (foreground silences); long periods between books (hidden silences); characterize most of us. ~ Tillie Olsen
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Tillie Olsen
The epitome of our life force turns on the seam where our tempered idealistic expectations meet the annealed exigencies fueling the cataclysm of a pressing personal crisis. Many of us do not decipher who we are and what we truly cherish until we experience the terror of an inconsolable loss. Failure and suffering lead to self-scrutiny. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
I certainly play people on the edge quite a lot. I am interested in what makes people odd and what makes them different. In life I try to play the edges. I have a horror of the herd. There are many, many different sorts of people. A lot of people are fairly uninteresting. I want to play the interesting ones. The villains are always more interesting to portray. Shakespeare knew that. ~ Jeremy Irons
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Jeremy Irons
I've developed my passion for cars that drive themselves from being stuck in traffic for many, many, many hours of my life. I don't know what it adds up to, but I feel like I've lost a year or two just in traffic. That's big to me. That's a lot of time, a lot of money that I just lose on the road. ~ Sebastian Thrun
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Sebastian Thrun
Life is no different than the weather. Not only is it unpredictable, but it shows us a new perspective of the world every day. ~ Suzy Kassem
Pointlessness Of Life quotes by Suzy Kassem
The greater a man's - or boy's - ignorance of the world, the more certain he is that he sits in the center of that world. ~ Avi
