So many people have really wanted to die. They seem ashamed to say so. I think it would help if they would say so.
Mercedes McCambridge

Ancient eschatological texts are actually maps of the inner territories of the psyche that seem to transcend race and culture and originate in the collective unconscious.
Stanislav Grof

It doesn't seem as if there's that much of a difference between a big production and a little production, other than you have a smaller space in which to get dressed and you have a shorter waiting time.
Jennifer Beals

Those who claim to have had happy lives seem to be silly fools.
Taylor Caldwell

Though actually the work of man's hands - or, more properly speaking, the work of his travelling feet, - roads have long since come to seem so much a part of Nature that we have grown to think of them as a feature of the landscape no less natural than rocks and trees.
Richard Le Gallienne

The Black Mountain poet I like most is the early Creeley. Those early poems seem very lyrical and very traditional, with a lot of voice and character.
Robert Morgan

Somehow, the greater the public opposition to the health care bill, the more determined they seem to force it on us anyway. Their attitude shows Washington at its very worst - the presumption that they know best, and they're going to get their way whether the American people like it or not.
Scott Brown

I can never tell ahead of time which book will give me trouble - some balk every step of the way, others seem to write themselves - but certainly the mechanics of writing, finding the time and the psychic space, are easier now that my children are grown.
Anne Tyler

I seem to keep returning to my father in poems because his personality was so extreme, so driven. He did everything to excess.
Robert Morgan

The studios don't seem to foster good writing. They're not so interested in that, but they're more interested in what worked most recently. They're definitely very serious about making money, and that's not a wrong thing, but you don't have to make money the same way all the time.
Bill Murray

They seem not to listen to what I have to say, so I'm going to quit.
Richard Kerry

There certainly does seem a possibility that the detective story will come to an end, simply because the public will have learnt all the tricks.
Dorothy L. Sayers

There is an element of luck, there is an element of trial and error, sometimes you fail, sometimes you succeed. It's not as beautifully simple as it may seem when we are talking about it.
Lakhdar Brahimi

Foreign powers do not seem to appreciate the true character of our government.
James K. Polk

I'm not a rock singer and I don't want to be a rock singer. I'm not interested. It doesn't seem to get across.
Van Morrison

I seem to find different material every four to six months and I frequently forget it which is a shame because it would be nice to have a bigger library.
Leo Kottke

Paradoxical as it may seem, to believe in youth is to look backward; to look forward we must believe in age.
Dorothy L. Sayers

In those days, boxing was very glamorous and romantic. You listened to fights on the radio, and a good announcer made it seem like a contest between gladiators.
Joseph Barbera

Poems seem to have a life of their own. They tell you when enough is enough.
Thomas Lynch

It's now expected of me that I will defy expectation, so I really generally seem to be free to write what I want.
Jonathan Lethem
