Decided

Famous quotes containing the word decided:

    And although he had given himself a week to do it in and had told the landlady that he had finally decided to leave on Saturday, Ganin felt that neither this week not the next would change anything. Meanwhile nostalgia in reverse, the longing for yet another strange land, grew especially strong in spring.

    I decided that if the shaking of her breasts could be stopped,

    I concentrated my attention with careful subtlety to this end.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    I was always able to understand my friend who decided to quit smoking and who, through an effort of will, succeeded in doing so. One morning, he opened the newspaper, read that the first H- bomb had exploded, found out about the bomb’s admirable effects and went straight to the tobacconist’s.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
