History conditioned you for epic-scale calamity. Once, when she was studying the death tolls of battles in World War I, she'd caught herself thinking, Only eight thousand men died here. Well, that's not many. Because next to, say, the million who died at the Somme, it wasn't. The stupendous numbers deadened you to the merely tragic, and history didn't average in the tame days for balance. On this day, no one in the world was murdered. A lion gave birth. Ladybugs launched on aphids. A girl in love daydreamed all morning, neglecting her chores, and wasn't even scolded. ~ Laini Taylor
Tolls quotes by Laini Taylor
At a conservative estimate, one million dollars will be spent by American readers for this book [For Whom the Bell Tolls]. They will get for their money 34 pages of permanent value. These 34 pages tell of a massacre happening in a little Spanish town in the early days of the Civil War...Mr. Hemingway: please publish the massacre scene separately, and then forget For Whom the Bell Tolls; please leave stories of the Spanish Civil War to Malraux... ~ Commonweal
Tolls quotes by Commonweal
Forever only takes its toll on some ~ Ryan Adams
Tolls quotes by Ryan Adams
School-boy. The spectators thou regardest as on work-days they regard each other. For thee, then, it may be well to wish thyself behind a desk, over ruled ledgers, collecting tolls, and picking out reversions. Thou feelest not the co-operating, co-inspiring ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Tolls quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Ask not for whom the bell tolls. ~ Murdoc Niccals
Tolls quotes by Murdoc Niccals
Unix is like a toll road on which you have to stop every 50 feet to pay another nickel. But hey! You only feel 5 cents poorer each time. ~ Larry Wall
Tolls quotes by Larry Wall
The bell tolls with a painful note afar
When man drops in the dreadful jaws of death
But human beasts watch death with mouth ajar
While lifeless church bell feels the pangs of death ~ Manuel Newton-Management Consultant Poet MA M.Com LLB ICWA FIBAM FIMM Etc
Tolls quotes by Manuel Newton-Management Consultant Poet MA M.Com LLB ICWA FIBAM FIMM Etc
Stress is never a given. There are people who get divorced amicably. There are people who pack up and move with no emotional toll. There is no stressor 'out there' in the world. We experience stress - or we don't - depending on what we believe. ~ Andrew J. Bernstein
Tolls quotes by Andrew J. Bernstein
Do not forget that the Arab countries, starting with Algeria and Egypt, are the ones that have paid the heaviest toll because of Islamic terror. ~ Omar Bongo
Tolls quotes by Omar Bongo
Go directly to work' means ... when an idea strikes, you drop everything and when your work bell tolls, you answer it. ~ Eric Maisel
Tolls quotes by Eric Maisel
Old religious dogma attempts to convince you that you are on a journey to God, then makes you pay tolls along that roadway. ~ Steve Maraboli
Tolls quotes by Steve Maraboli
How heavy is the toll of sins and wrong that wealth, power and prestige exact from man. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Tolls quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
People should be entrusted with their own lives. People must be independent in every respect. No one should own anything. Property should be free like people are. The roads should not belong to any one person, in order to stop someone from collecting tolls from travelers. A priest shouldn't take a toll for prayers. A farmhand shouldn't take a toll for the fruits of the earth. The phone company shouldn't take a toll for conversations. Totally free of charge, like the fetus's time inside the mother continues to be after its birth. ~ Kristin Omarsdottir
Tolls quotes by Kristin Omarsdottir
To care only about your pain and suffering, and disregard the emotional toll of others is hypocritically sub-human. ~ Willie D
Tolls quotes by Willie D
They say that life is a highway and its milestones are the years,And now and then there's a toll-gate where you buy your way with tears.It's a rough road and a steep road and it stretches broad and far,But at last it leads to a golden Town where golden Houses are. ~ Joyce Kilmer
Tolls quotes by Joyce Kilmer
The fully human person is in deep and meaningful contact with the world outside of him. He not only listens to himself, but to the voices of the world. The breadth of his own individual experience is infinitely multiplied through a sensitive empathy with others. He suffers with the suffering, rejoices with the joyful. He is born again in every springtime, feels the impact of the great mysteries of life: birth, growth, love, suffering, death. His heart skips along with the 'young lovers', and he knows something of the exhilaration that is in them. He also knows the ghetto's philosophy of despair, the loneliness of suffering without relief, and the bell never tolls without tolling in some strange way for him. ~ John Joseph Powell
Tolls quotes by John Joseph Powell
The bells which toll for mankind are - most of them, anyway - like the bells of Alpine cattle; they are attached to our own necks, and it must be our fault if they do not make a cheerful and harmonious sound. ~ Peter Medawar
Tolls quotes by Peter Medawar
Management is a seven-days-a-week job. The Intensity of it takes it toll on your health. Some people want to go on for ever, and I obviously don't. ~ Kenny Dalglish
Tolls quotes by Kenny Dalglish
If the bell of intolerance tolls for one, it tolls for all. ~ Henry Seidel Canby
Tolls quotes by Henry Seidel Canby
The death toll is not nearly high enough ... too many [jihadists] have escaped. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Tolls quotes by Christopher Hitchens
We need a Nuremberg to put on trial the economic order that they have imposed on us, that every three years kills more men, women and children by hunger and preventable or curable diseases than the death toll in six years of the second world war. ~ Fidel Castro
Tolls quotes by Fidel Castro
These small indignities and minor cruelties take a toll. They add to the burden of stress and fatigue that is already present in the workplace and they have real consequences on the every day lives of workers. ~ P. M. Forni
Tolls quotes by P. M. Forni
Hollywood can be a draining industry. For all the glitz and glory and wonderful parts of our business, it takes it's toll on your inner self. ~ Amber Heard
Tolls quotes by Amber Heard
But an army that is made up of good and bad elements cannot win a war. All must be brought to a certain level of political development; all must know why they are fighting, and its importance. All must believe in the fight they are to make and all must accept discipline.
- For Whom the Bell Tolls ~ Ernest Hemingway
Tolls quotes by Ernest Hemingway
War is tragedy. The great war stories are tragedies. It's the failure of diplomacy. 'War and Peace,' 'A Farewell to Arms,' 'For Whom the Bell Tolls.' Those are some of the greatest tragedies. ~ David Mamet
Tolls quotes by David Mamet
Writing pornography is deadly, nothing duller. I mean a toll-taker has a more exciting life than a pornographer. ~ Fran Lebowitz
Tolls quotes by Fran Lebowitz
I kind of dislike 'For Whom the Bell Tolls,' but most of Hemingway in general, mainly because his stylistic shenanigans ruined so many young writers of my generation who tried to imitate him. I think, for his time, he moved fiction to a different level stylistically, or at least added to the dialogue, but in our time, he's annoying. ~ Christopher Moore
Tolls quotes by Christopher Moore
As a culture, we've become upset by the tobacco companies advertising to children, but we sit idly by while the food companies do the very same thing. And we could make a claim that the toll taken on the public health by a poor diet rivals that taken by tobacco. ~ Michael Moss
Tolls quotes by Michael Moss
There's a terrible truth for many women in the picture business: Aging typically takes its toll and means fewer and less desirable roles. ~ Maureen O'Hara
Tolls quotes by Maureen O'Hara
By the toll of a billion deaths man has bought his birthright of the earth, and it is his against all comers; it would still be his were the Martians ten times as mighty as they are. For neither do men live nor die in vain. ~ H.G.Wells
Tolls quotes by H.G.Wells
The words you speak and think create your life. What you are saying and thinking determinate your life. ~ Lanni Tolls
Tolls quotes by Lanni Tolls
The IRS spends God knows how much of your tax money on these toll-free information hotlines staffed by IRS employees, whose idea of a dynamite tax tip is that you should print neatly. ~ Dave Barry
Tolls quotes by Dave Barry
We commonly see problems in adults that had been present since childhood but which take a toll on the heart over time. ~ Gary Webb
Tolls quotes by Gary Webb
Good cardio helps in any athletic practice, but in jujitsu, it has been very helpful late in a sparring session where a long roll starts to take its toll on your cardio. ~ Andy Lally
Tolls quotes by Andy Lally
Acting can truly take a toll on your nerves. I mean, we have to be larger than life. Worse, I've seen actors acting off the sets, too. ~ Preity Zinta
Tolls quotes by Preity Zinta
Ford and General Motors executives made a big deal of the occasion by driving to Washington in their hybrid vehicles. Mulally of Ford came in an Escape SUV hybrid. Wagoner of General Motors was chauffeured in a Chevy Malibu hybrid.
Poor Bob Nardelli of Chrysler. The pickings were slim. Chrysler, known more for the styling of it's bodies than for its technological savvy, sent Nardelli to Washington in an Aspen Hybrid SUV, about the only "green" thing Chrysler had to offer. Problem is, it was a terrible vehicle and unreliable.
Despite being partially powered by a battery, the Aspen ran on a V-8 Hemi and got less than twenty miles to the gallon. The charging system was flawed and difficult to service.
His driver was Mike Carlisle, the homicide detective who had retired from the Detroit Police Department just a month earlier.
The media was invited to snap bon voyage photographs in Detroit, which they dutifully filed. What they did not see -and what Carlisle later told me- was that there were two engineers tailing Nardelli at a discreet three-mile buffer, carrying laptops and a trunk full of tolls in case the Aspen broke down. Even Chrysler didn't trust their products. ~ Charlie LeDuff
Tolls quotes by Charlie LeDuff
I haven't personally in my real life had many people close to me die, but my characters have, and I've had to live that as though it's real. And it can take a really big emotional toll on someone. ~ Nina Dobrev
Tolls quotes by Nina Dobrev
The vision of the left, full of envy and resentment, takes its worst toll on those at the bottom - whether black or white - who find in that paranoid vision an excuse for counterproductive and ultimately self-destructive attitudes and behavior. ~ Thomas Sowell
Tolls quotes by Thomas Sowell
In the early days I was incredibly creative and productive - I loved the research trips, I loved the creation and finding technical solutions to creative challenges. I didn't need alcohol and the pills for that. What changed was, I was afraid to say no - that little word, N.O. Because I thought it showed weakness. And with more and more success I would just say yes. And keep on taking more work on - which took its toll. ~ John Galliano
Tolls quotes by John Galliano
What matters that I was born a woman, if I can cure your misfortunes? I pay my share of tolls and taxes, by giving men to the State. But you, you miserable greybeards, you contribute nothing to the public charges; on the contrary, you have wasted the treasure of our forefathers, as it was called, the treasure amassed in the days of the Persian Wars. You pay nothing at all in return; and into the bargain you endanger our lives and liberties by your mistakes. Have you one word to say for yourselves? ... Ah! don't irritate me, you there, or I'll lay my slipper across your jaws; and it's pretty heavy. ~ Aristophanes
Tolls quotes by Aristophanes
Death was a thief that always wore a mask. Accident, disease, stillbirths, old age, natural causes, war, murder. It existed in the shivering silence between tolls of a bell. It stole everything away while it left its mark, a dark knowledge that lingered at the back of smiling eyes, a hesitation between thought and action in times of danger, a heaviness that tunneled wormholes into happy memories. ~ Thea Harrison
Tolls quotes by Thea Harrison
In 'For Whom the Bell Tolls,' Hemingway cozies up to revolution by romanticizing it (and not only with those execrable love scenes). ~ Madison Smartt Bell
Tolls quotes by Madison Smartt Bell
At the great iron gate of the churchyard he stopped and looked in. He looked up at the high tower spectrally resisting the wind, and he looked round at the white tombstones, like enough to the dead in their winding-sheets, and he counted the nine tolls of the clock-bell. ~ Charles Dickens
Tolls quotes by Charles Dickens
In an inflationary world, a toll bridge (like company) would be a great thing to own because you've laid out the capital costs. You built it in old dollars and you don't have to keep replacing it. ~ Warren Buffett
Tolls quotes by Warren Buffett
In the heat of leadership, with the adrenaline pumping, it is easy to convince yourself that you are not subject to the normal human frailties that can defeat ordinary mortals. You begin to act as if you are indestructible. But the intellectual, physical, and emotional challenges of leadership are fierce. So, in addition to getting on the being and assess the tolls those changes are taking. If you don't, your seemingly indestructible self can self-destruct. This, by the way, is an ideal outcome for your foes-and even friends who oppose your initiative- because no one has to feel responsible for your downfall.

When you take "personal" attacks personally, you unwittingly conspire in one of the common ways you can be taken out of action-you make yourself the issue.
Attacks may be personal, understand that they are basically attacks on positions you represent and the role you are seeking to play ~ Ronald A. Heifetz
Tolls quotes by Ronald A. Heifetz
The essence of procrastination lies in not doing what you think you should be doing, a mental contortion that surely accounts for the great psychic toll the habit takes on people. This is the perplexing thing about procrastination: although it seems to involve avoiding unpleasant tasks, indulging in it generally doesn't make people happy. ~ James Surowiecki
Tolls quotes by James Surowiecki
I suppose if a man has something once, always something of it remains. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Tolls quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Matthew White, a self-described atrocitologist who keeps a database with the estimated death tolls of history's major wars, massacres, and genocides, counts about 1.2 million deaths from mass killing that are specifically enumerated in the Bible. (He excludes the half million casualties in the war between Judah and Israel described in 2 Chronicles 13 because he considers ~ Steven Pinker
Tolls quotes by Steven Pinker
The world will somehow manage to get rid of the coronavirus, most probably with extraordinary death tolls. But then guess what happens? The world will go back to its routine stupidities, namely the wars, supporting the dictators, voting for stupid politicians, destroying the forests, killing earth's climate etc.! ~ Mehmet Murat Ildan
Tolls quotes by Mehmet Murat Ildan
"Extra effort," in whatever form it takes (mental, physical, emotional), cannot be sustained without eventual damage and diminishing returns. There has to be a very acute awareness on your part as to the level of exertion and the toll it's taking on those you lead. ~ Bill Walsh
Tolls quotes by Bill Walsh
My biggest challenge will be to play the totally submissive woman. It takes a toll on you when you play someone who's far removed from your personality. ~ Regina King
Tolls quotes by Regina King
Pakistan will never be able to match the Indian militarily, and the effort to do so is taking an immense toll on the society. ~ Noam Chomsky
Tolls quotes by Noam Chomsky
Sometimes running a corporation, dealing with powerful companies and trying to juggle so many projects takes its toll. ~ Wynonna Judd
Tolls quotes by Wynonna Judd
Life has a way of taking its toll on the person you thought you were. ~ A.S.A Harrison
Tolls quotes by A.S.A Harrison
When you sell a prospecting concession, you're only selling potential. You pay tolls for the right to invest and look for something. ~ Beny Steinmetz
Tolls quotes by Beny Steinmetz
Be real, because a mask only fools people on the outside. Pretending to be someone you're not takes a toll on the real you, and the real you is more important than anyone else. ~ Alex Gaskarth
Tolls quotes by Alex Gaskarth
The curfew tolls the knell of parting day, The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea, The ploughman homeward plods his weary way, And leaves the world to darkness and to me. ~ Thomas Gray
Tolls quotes by Thomas Gray
The lilacs shed as I walked the bridge. My phone buzzed twice and I turned it off. The city was radiant and I felt untouchable. I experienced the boundlessness that ships cut from their moorings must feel. I experienced again that feeling of having money, paying the tolls, of being allowed to enter the race. Yes, I felt the freedom again, even if I couldn't quite recapture the hope. I could have walked all night. All the times I'd been denied entrance, all the times I'd asked permission - but it was my city too. ~ Stephanie Danler
Tolls quotes by Stephanie Danler
Hume hummed in his head. Reason versus passion- David versus Goliath. Let the Goliath win for one last time. But the world is full of the Davids, the begging bastards, passing of their defeat as a win over the favorites. Why the world sides with the under-doggies. A favorite is nobody's favorite, but one's one. As if he has to pay a toll tax for his tolls. ~ Aporva Kala
Tolls quotes by Aporva Kala
Nobody likes paying tolls. It's difficult to explain the concept of dynamic tolling, where the price varies to maintain the flow of traffic. And it's difficult to explain why highway widenings don't wind up helping commuters in the long run. ~ Robert James Thomson
Tolls quotes by Robert James Thomson
The influenza pandemic of 1918 may well be the greatest scourge ever to afflict humanity, exacting a death toll greater than all the wars of the 20th Century combined. The virus that wreaked this havoc apparently developed in birds, and then jumped to people. In other words, it was avian flu. ~ David L. Katz
Tolls quotes by David L. Katz
No government can provide social security. It is not in the nature of government to be able to provide anything. Government itself is not self-supporting. It lives by taxation. Therefore, since it cannot provide for itself but by taking toll of what the people produce, how can it provide social security for the people? ~ Garet Garrett
Tolls quotes by Garet Garrett
What," "how," "when," etc are all questions more or less common to religion and philosophy. But to ask "why" is a transgression in religion, and this inquiry has undoubtedly taken the heaviest tolls on intellect. ~ Raheel Farooq
Tolls quotes by Raheel Farooq
Technology has taken its toll on albums in a tough way. The CD format and MTV really played havoc on artists. ~ Mark Mothersbaugh
Tolls quotes by Mark Mothersbaugh
I almost feel guilty. The physical toll is tremendous. Im exhausted and I only played nine innings. ~ Lance Berkman
Tolls quotes by Lance Berkman
Confession can be good for the soul, but it can exact a heavy toll on friendships. ~ C.D. Payne
Tolls quotes by C.D. Payne
The tolls for the maintenance of a high road, cannot with any safety be made the property of private persons. ~ Adam Smith
Tolls quotes by Adam Smith
In the Internet world, both ends essentially pay for access to the Internet system, and so the providers of access get compensated by the users at each end. My big concern is that suddenly access providers want to step in the middle and create a toll road to limit customers' ability to get access to services of their choice even though they have paid for access to the network in the first place. ~ Vinton Cerf
Tolls quotes by Vinton Cerf
For all the toll the desert takes of a man it gives compensations, deep breaths, deep sleep, and the communion of the stars. ~ Mary Hunter Austin
Tolls quotes by Mary Hunter Austin
When I first arrived in beautiful Zimbabwe, it was difficult to understand that 35 percent of the population is HIV positive. It really wasn't until I was invited to the homes of people that I started to understand the human toll of the epidemic. ~ Kristen Ashburn
Tolls quotes by Kristen Ashburn
For all the poor in the world against all tyranny ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Tolls quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Without purpose and meaning in our lives, we banish ourselves to wander this plane of existence with self-destructive tendencies until the bell tolls and our breath capsizes in our lungs, snatching our chance to redeem ourselves forever. ~ A.J. Darkholme
Tolls quotes by A.J. Darkholme
I'm a promoter of the people for the people and by the people and my magic lies in my people ties. I'm a promoter of America. I'm American people. You know what I mean? So therefore, uh, do not send for who the bell tolls 'cause the bell tolls for thee. ~ Don King
Tolls quotes by Don King
If you own a toll road, you don't care how many passengers are in each car or what kind of car it is. You just want as many cars to move down the road as possible, and you make damn certain they pay their tolls, okay? ~ Richard Kinder
Tolls quotes by Richard Kinder
All the work built my fame and certainly made me more money, but the toll it took in my home was not good. ~ Jamie Lee Curtis
Tolls quotes by Jamie Lee Curtis
Each man's death diminishes me, for I am involved in mankind. Therefore, ask not to know for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for thee. - John Donne ~ Meg Cabot
Tolls quotes by Meg Cabot
And send not to ask for whom the fucking bell tolls, because you're not going to like the answer. ~ Mike Carey
Tolls quotes by Mike Carey
Hypothesis is a toll which can cause trouble if not used properly. We must be ready to abandon our hypothesis as soon as it is shown to be inconsistent with the facts. ~ William Ian Beardmore Beveridge
Tolls quotes by William Ian Beardmore Beveridge
No bell in us tolls to let us know for certain when truth is in our grasp. ~ William James
Tolls quotes by William James
Some people are not even that precious to be counted in the official death tolls. ~ Neeraj Agnihotri
Tolls quotes by Neeraj Agnihotri
Ambition's monstrous stomach does increase
By eating, and it fears to starve, unless
It still may feed, and all it sees devour;
Ambition is not tir'd with toll nor cloy'd with power. ~ William Davenant
Tolls quotes by William Davenant
The happy man is he who turns his soul Unto the light of joys that he can find; And pays each day its just demand of toll, But shuts the future troubles from his mind. ~ Edgar Guest
Tolls quotes by Edgar Guest
Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul ~ Bob Dylan
Tolls quotes by Bob Dylan
Your clothes smell heavily of clothing. Your den is filled with low-hanging palls of fresh air. The only rattle in your car is the sound of toll change in the ashtray. The absence of telltale tobacco stains on your shirt collar tells the tale - you've licked the smoking habit. ~ Robert Breault
Tolls quotes by Robert Breault
Ah, broken is the golden bowl! the spirit flown forever!
Let the bell toll!-a saintly soul floats on the Stygian river;
And, Guy de Vere, hast thou no tear?-weep now or nevermore! ~ Edgar Allan Poe
Tolls quotes by Edgar Allan Poe
But did thee feel the earth move? ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Tolls quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Millions of people in nearly 80 countries still live in fear of landmines and explosive remnants of war, which take an unacceptable toll on lives and limbs, and people's livelihoods ~ Ban Ki-moon
Tolls quotes by Ban Ki-moon
