Famous quotes containing the word kind:
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasnt there something reassuring about it!that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one anothers eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atomsnothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
“But now I see I was not plucked for naught,
And after in lifes vase
Of glass set while I might survive,
But by a kind hand brought
Alive
To a strange place.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Maybe now you, you dont want to believe it. Maybe youd like to tell yourself it didnt happen. But Steve, youre not the kind of person that can turn your back on something you know is true.”
—Theodore Simonson. Irvin S. Yeaworth, Jr.. Jane Martin (Aneta Corseaut)
