QUOTE STARTERS VOL.V MARGARET ATWOOD
❛ I would like to be the air that inhabits you for a moment only. I would like to be that unnoticed and that necessary. ❜
❛ Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them. ❜
❛ In the end, we’ll all become stories. ❜
❛ I am inadequate and stupid, without worth. I might as well be dead. ❜
❛ If you knew what was going to happen, if you knew everything that was going to happen next—if you knew in advance the consequences of your own actions—you’d be doomed. You’d be ruined as God. ❜
❛ If you can’t go through an obstacle, go around it. ❜
❛ Stupidity is the same as evil if you judge by the results. ❜
❛ Time in dreams is frozen. You can never get away from where you’ve been. ❜
❛ Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? ❜
❛ We still think of a powerful man as a born leader and a powerful woman as an anomaly. ❜
❛ If I love you, is that a fact or a weapon? ❜
❛ You fit into me like a hook into an eye. ❜
❛ Knowing too much about other people puts you in their power, they have a claim on you, you are forced to understand their reasons for doing things and then you are weakened. ❜
❛ Farewells can be shattering, but returns are surely worse. ❜
❛ Women have curious ways of hurting someone else. ❜
❛ This is the one song everyone would like to learn: the song that is irresistible: the song that forces men to leap overboard in squadrons. ❜
❛ Get rid of death. Make it be spring. ❜
❛ You are innocent as a bathtub full of bullets. ❜
❛ I am the space you desecrate as you pass through. ❜
❛ Favour me and give me riches, destroy my enemies. Save me from death. ❜
❛ She is a raw voice loose in the rooms beneath me. ❜
❛ Isn’t the moon warm enough for you, why do you need the blanket of another body? ❜
❛ This is a torch song. Touch me and you’ll burn. ❜
❛ If you look long enough eventually you will see me. ❜
❛ I would like to sleep with you, to enter your sleep as its smooth dark wave slides over my head. ❜
❛ I would like to give you the silver branch, the small white flower, the one word that will protect you from the grief. ❜
❛ But some people can’t tell where it hurts. They can’t calm down. They can’t ever stop howling. ❜
❛ How else can we live, these days, except in the midst of ruin? ❜
❛ What am I living for and what am I dying for are the same question. ❜
❛ Gods always come in handy, they justify almost anything. ❜
