Ingrid Bergman As one gets older one sees many more paths that could be taken. Artists sense within their own work that kind of swelling of possibilities, which may seem a freedom or a confusion. Jasper Johns But it then very soon became clear that the response of a war against terrorism, initially conceived of in a metaphorical sense, began to be taken increasingly seriously and came to entail waging a real war. Ulrich Beck When they come to Europe, they are confronted by still closed borders. Thus, the concept of open borders is a very selective concept, one that is not taken seriously at all in the experience of non-Europeans. Ulrich Beck All your youth you want to have your greatness taken for granted; when you find it taken for granted, you are unnerved. Elizabeth Bowen An allegory is not meant to be taken literally. There is a great lack of comprehension on the part of some readers. Naguib Mahfouz I wrote a lot of stuff quickly: pages and pages of notes that seemed pretty incoherent at first. Most of it was taken from the radio because -suddenly being a parent- I'd be confronted by the radio giving a news report every hour of the day. Thom Yorke The family only represents one aspect, however important an aspect, of a human being's functions and activities. A life is beautiful and ideal or the reverse, only when we have taken into our consideration the social as well as the family relationship. Henry Ellis If children are not introduced to music at an early age, I believe something fundamental is actually being taken from them. Luciano Pavarotti The real being of language is that into which we are taken up when we hear it - what is said. Hans-Georg Gadamer Substantial progress toward better things can rarely be taken without developing new evils requiring new remedies. William Howard Taft And I don't want to begin something, I don't want to write that first sentence until all the important connections in the novel are known to me. As if the story has already taken place, and it's my responsibility to put it in the right order to tell it to you. John Irving What was taken by force, can only be restored by force. Gamal Abdel Nasser It's taken a long time but eventually when I had the songs in place and demos right and I found myself a manager, that's when everything started happening quickly but I think that's always the way it is. James Blunt Life has always taken place in a tumult without apparent cohesion, but it only finds its grandeur and its reality in ecstasy and in ecstatic love. Georges Bataille Nothing that has been thought can ever be taken back. Friedrich Durrenmatt The United States of America have taken their name from the United States of the Netherlands. Seth Low A dream becomes a goal when action is taken toward its achievement. Bo Bennett If you have not taken the time to define what happiness means to you, what have your spent your whole life pursuing? Bo Bennett As a child I was taken to the pantomime or the theatre and I would always, always fall in love with somebody on the stage. And want to have sex with them. Ewan McGregor |
