inspirational - Bilingual quotes that celebrate the beauty of language, showcasing meaningful expressions in two unique perspectives.
Matthew Pearl
'Yes, we rather condemn people for eternity without the courtesy of informing them.'
John O'Donohue
Where the imagination is alive, wonder is completely alive. Where the imagination is alive, possibility is awake because imagination is the great friend of possibility. Possibilities are always more interesting than their facts.
John O'Donohue
I don't believe that death comes at the end of a life. I believe your death was there at your birth with you. It was the unknown presence. Every step of the road of your life that you take, your death is beside you.
Margaret Atwood
It's okay, mummy's in there lying on the floor. She'll be alright in an hour or so.
Margaret Atwood
The only sure camouflage was unpredictability.
Margaret Atwood
You shouldn't do that," said Laura. "You could set yourself on fire.
Sophie Kinsella
If you can't be honest with your friends and colleagues and loved ones, then what is life all about?
Sophie Kinsella
In the end, you have to choose whether or not to trust someone.
Henry Miller
For a hundred years or more the world, our world, has been dying. And not one man, in these last hundred years or so, has been crazy enough to put a bomb up the asshole of creation and set it off. The world is rotting away, dying piecemeal. But it needs the coup de grace, it needs to be blown to smithereens. Not one of us is intact, and yet we have in us all the continents and the seas between the continents and the birds of the air. We are going to put it down ― the evolution of this world which has died but which has not been buried.
Nelson Mandela
A Nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but it's lowest ones
Tucker Max
FK THAT. I AM TUCKER MAX. I AM BETTER THAN ALL OF YOU.
Rick Riordan
It was the heaviest thing I'd ever felt, as if I were being crushed under a thousand trucks. I wanted to black out from the pain, but I breathed deeply.
Rick Riordan
I'm just a kid, Chiron, I said miserably. What good is one lousy hero against something like Kronos?Chiron managed a smile. 'What good is one lousy hero'? Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain said something like that to me once, just before he single-handedly changed the course of your Civil War.
Darren Shan
Yes? she asked, eyeing me guardedly.I struck out a hand and said Shake.Arra stared at the hand, then into my unfocused eyes. One good fight doesn't make you a warrior, she said.Shake! I repeated angrily.And if I don't? she asked.I'll get back up on the bars and fight you till you do, I growled.Arra studied me at length, then nodded and took my hand. Power to you, Darren Shan, she said gruffly.Power, I repeated weakly, then fainted into her arms and knew no more till I came to in my hammock the next night.
H. G. Wells
I never blame anyone," said Kemp. "It's quite out of fashion.
Max Brooks
Joy, sadness, confidence, anxiety, love, hatred, fear-all of these feelings and thousands more that make up the human "heart" are as useless to the living dead as the organ of the same name. Who knows if this is humanity's greatest weakness or strength? The debate continues, and probably will forever.
Jennifer L. Armentrout
-Why do you smile if you threw me? He offered my hand. -The small things are the ones that make me happy.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Sometimes, there is no harm in putting off a piece of work until another day.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
You're beautiful, but you're empty...One couldn't die for you. Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass, since she's the one I sheltered behind the screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars {except the two or three butterflies}. Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.
Susan Jeffers
Feel the fear and do it anyway!
Joanna Gaines
I always thought that the thriving would come when everything was perfect, and what I learned is that it's actually down in the mess that things get good. It was such a blessing to find myself thriving in the middle of the pain. Unless you find a way to do that, there's always going to be this fake illusion that once you get there-wherever there is for you-you'll be happy. But that's just not life. If you can't find happiness in the ugliness, you're not going to find it in the beauty, either.
Al Gore
As many know, the Chinese expression for crisis consists of two characters side by side. The first is the symbol for danger, the second the symbol for opportunity.
Al Gore
Global warming, along with the cutting and burning of forests and other critical habitats, is causing the loss of living species at a level comparable to the extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. That event was believed to have been caused by a giant asteroid. This time it is not an asteroid colliding with the Earth and wreaking havoc: it is us.
Thomas Jefferson
I agree with yours of the 22d that . but we cannot always do what is absolutely best. those with whom we act, entertaining different views, have the power and the right of carrying them into practice. truth advances, & error recedes step by step only; and to do to our fellow-men the most good in our power, we must lead where we can, follow where we cannot, and still go with them, watching always the favorable moment for helping them to another step.{}
L.M. Montgomery
Do you know, my arm must be black and blue from the elbow up, for I've pinched myself so many times today. Every little while a horrible sickening feeling would come over me and I'd be afraid it was all a dream. Then I'd pinch myself it see if it was real- until suddenly I remembered that even supposing it was only a dream I'd better go on dreaming as long as I could; so I stopped pinching.
Orson Scott Card
The memory of the pain did not destroy the reality of the pleasure; grief did not obliterate joy.
Orson Scott Card
There's only one thing that will make them stop hating you. And that's being so good at what you do that they can't ignore you.
Robert Ludlum
Perhaps conscience did not always produce cowards. Sometimes it made a man feel better about himself.
Scott Adams
Scott: What's the cure?Doctor: There is none.Scott: But that isn't what I heard. The optimist in me translated the gloomy news as "Scott, you will be the first person in the world to be cured of spasmodic dysphonia." And I decided that after I cured myself, somehow, someway, I would spread the word to others. I wouldn't be satisfied escaping from my prison of silence. I was planning to escape, free the other inmates, shoot the warden, and burn down the prison.

Taffy. He thinks about taffy. He thinks it would take his teeth out now, but he would eat it anyhow, if it meant eating it with her.
by Mitch Albom
All our human endeavours are like that, she reflected, and it is only because we are too ignorant to realize it, or are too forgetful to remember it, that we have the confidence to build something that is meant to last.
by Alexander McCall Smith
In fact, none of us knows how he ever managed to get his LLB in the first place. Maybe they're putting law degrees in cornflakes boxes these days.
by Alexander McCall Smith
The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.}
by Alexander McCall Smith
Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.
by Mitch Albom
Small towns are like metronomes; with the slightest flick, the beat changes.
by Mitch Albom
You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
by Mitch Albom
we get so many lives between birth and death. A life to be a child. A life to come of age. A life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to test our promise, to realize our mortality-and, in some lucky cases, to do something after that realization.
by Mitch Albom
Where there's bluster, thinks Luisa, there's duplicity
by David Mitchell
But an ink brush, she thinks, is a skeleton key for a prisoner's mind.
by David Mitchell
