«Slippery bunch, angels, hiding their nasty little sins behind curtsies and compliments, Bibles and badges.»
Author: Jean Harris | Keywords: badges, hiding, slippery
«Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.»
«I have often been downcast, but never in despair; I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.»
«One of life's primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn't hide too well. You mustn't be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.»
«Never again clutter your days or nights with so many menial and unimportant things that you have no time to accept a real challenge when it comes along. This applies to play as well as work. A day merely survived is no cause for celebration. You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine. No more busy work. No more hiding from success. Leave time, leave space, to grow. Now. Now! Not tomorrow!»
«Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding place and let be free and unashamed.»
«Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.»
«If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom: / Did I fear a great multitude, or did the contempt of families terrify me, that I kept silence, and went not out of the door? / Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book.»
«Look at Sir Charles's death! That was bad enough, for all that the coroner said. Look at the noises on the moor at night. There's not a man would cross it after sundown if he was paid for it. Look at this stranger hiding out yonder, and watching and waiting! What's he waiting for? What does it mean? It means no good to anyone of the name of Baskerville . . . »
«No nation hiding behind closed doors is free, for it is imprisoned by its own fear»
