Top Chance Meetings Quotes

Chance Meetings Quotes By Simon Van Booy

Life can unmoor so many feelings; it is a relief we sleep through it.
Night unravels the day and reinvents it for the first time.
We may mean nothing to time, but to each other we are kings and queens, and the world is a wild benevolent garden filled with chance meetings and unexplained departures. — Simon Van Booy

Chance Meetings Quotes By Krzysztof Kieslowski

I like chance meetings - life is full of them. Every day, without realising it, I pass people whom I should know. — Krzysztof Kieslowski

Chance Meetings Quotes By Theresa May

We are mandating forces to hold regular neighbourhood beat meetings. These meetings will give local people the chance to scrutinise the work of their local police. — Theresa May

Chance Meetings Quotes By Linda Olsson

But far-fetched things do happen. In fact, many people's entire lives are completely far-fetched. I think we are constantly surrounded by extraordinary possibilities. Whether we are aware of them or not, whether we choose to act on them or not, they are there. What is offered to us that we choose not to act upon falls by the wayside, and the road that is our life is littered with rejected, ignore
d and unnoticed opportunities, good and bad. Chance meetings and coincidences become extraordinary only when acted upon. Those that we allow to pass us by are gone forever. We never know where they night have taken us. I think they were never meant to happen. The potiental was there, but only for the briefest moment, before we consciously or unconsciously chose to ignore it. — Linda Olsson

Chance Meetings Quotes By Lucy Grealy

When a film's heroine innocently coughs, you know that two scenes later, at most, she'll be in an oxygen tent; when a man bumps into a woman at the train station, you know that man will become the woman's lover and/or murderer. In everyday life, where we cough often and are always bumping into people, our daily actions rarely reverberate so lucidly. Once we love or hate someone, we can think back and remember that first casual encounter. But what of all the chance meetings that nothing ever comes of? While our bodies move ever forward on the time line, our minds continuously trace backward, seeking shape and meaning as deftly as any arrow seeking its mark. — Lucy Grealy

Chance Meetings Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky

There are chance meetings with strangers that interest us from the first moment, before a word is spoken. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Chance Meetings Quotes By William Hutchison Murray

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his way. I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe's couplets:
Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it! — William Hutchison Murray

Chance Meetings Quotes By Saskia De Brauw

The travel, the amazing work I have had the chance to do, the meetings with different people are all very inspiring and give me lots of positive energy. — Saskia De Brauw

Chance Meetings Quotes By Jeremy Irons

What takes us back to the past are the memories.
What brings us forward is our dreams. — Jeremy Irons

Chance Meetings Quotes By Simon Van Booy

We may mean nothing to time, but to each other we are kings and queens, and the world is a wild benevolent garden filled with chance meetings and unexplained departures. Magda — Simon Van Booy

Chance Meetings Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Even chance meetings are the result of karma ... Things in life are fated by our previous lives. That even in the smallest events there's no such thing as coincidence. — Haruki Murakami

Chance Meetings Quotes By Chance The Rapper

I don't really like meetings, I like recording and performing music. I need to set myself up for when the time does come that I need better distribution or just a bigger team behind me. — Chance The Rapper

Chance Meetings Quotes By Thomas Hardy

It is foreign to a man's nature to go on loving a person when he is told that he must and shall be that person's lover. There would be a much likelier chance of his doing it if he were told not to love. If the marriage ceremony consisted in an oath and signed contract between the parties to cease loving from that day forward, in consideration of personal possession being given, and to avoid each other's society as much as possible in public, there would be more loving couples than there are now. Fancy the secret meetings between the perjuring husband and wife, the denials of having seen each other, the clambering in at bedroom windows, and the hiding in closets! There'd be little cooling then. — Thomas Hardy

Chance Meetings Quotes By Gloria Steinem

What I've learned is that unless it's an emergency, like a fire or brain surgery, hierarchy is not necessary and may be damaging. If you have a hierarchy, you're repeating the strengths and weaknesses of one person without allowing for the accumulative strength of a group. — Gloria Steinem

Chance Meetings Quotes By Scot Armstrong

Too many people are surfing the web and trying to figure out the politics of getting a movie made or taking meetings and trying to get someone to read something instead of creating a truly great script, because something great has a great chance of getting made, but something average that you've sort of talked people into reading doesn't have as good a shot. — Scot Armstrong

Chance Meetings Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky

We all have chance meetings with people, even with complete strangers, who interest us at first glance, suddenly, before a word is spoken. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Chance Meetings Quotes By Victor Hugo

There are instincts which respond to all the chance meetings in life. The little girl was not afraid. — Victor Hugo

Chance Meetings Quotes By Michael Vito Tosto

We all encounter random phenomena, arbitrary occurrences, chance meetings, and eerie coincidences. When we attach our own meaning to these events, we are feeding meaning into the random; we are choosing something arbitrary and assigning our own deeper purpose to it. The problem, though, is that we do this selectively. — Michael Vito Tosto

Chance Meetings Quotes By Steve Guttenberg

You never know who's going to become your friend. Friends are always chance meetings. — Steve Guttenberg

Chance Meetings Quotes By Logan Pearsall Smith

So, I never lose a sense of the whimsical and perilous charm of daily life, with its meetings and words and accidents. — Logan Pearsall Smith

Chance Meetings Quotes By Stephen Christian

Honestly i don't understand the rousing of romance all that well. i used to believe in this thing called fate, or destiny. a romantic romeo and juliet, monet and veronica, etc. but now i feel jaded, maybe agnostic to the idea.
but choice used to seem so unromantic, as if some mystic force was not behind the meeting of 2 beautiful individuals. but now i think choice is the greater of the two simply for this fact: by choosing someone you are saying that out of all the people in the entire world i have decided that i want you apart of my life in perpetuum, for the rest of my life, and no one else.
no haphazard circumstance, no chance meetings where distant planets align. it's simply two rational individuals who make a choice and an effort to remain together. — Stephen Christian

Chance Meetings Quotes By Shannon L. Alder

True love is not:
A person's looks
A person's career or accomplishments
Longevity of a relationship
Children together
Memories made
Words spoken or declared
Chance meetings you feel are fate
Hobbies and interests shared
Or, Religious beliefs in common
True love is:
Seeing the potential in someone and helping them to rise and meet it. It is selfless. It doesn't care about being right or winning. It cares about you choosing right. It is your heart breaking when they go against the goodness in their nature and it is your heart rejoicing when he or she does something so generous and kind for others, that it inspires you to be even better. It is confidence that doesn't seek to possess, rather to set your soul free. — Shannon L. Alder

Chance Meetings Quotes By Daniel Pinchbeck

Synchronicities express themselves through chance meetings and natural events as well as in dreams and supernatural episodes. — Daniel Pinchbeck

Chance Meetings Quotes By V.E Schwab

Anoshe was a word for strangers in the street, and lovers between meetings, for parents and children, friends and family. It softened the blow of leaving. Eased the strain of parting. A careful nod to the certainty of today, the mystery of tomorrow. When a friend left, with little chance of seeing home, they said anoshe. When a loved one was dying, they said anoshe. When corpses were burned, bodies given back to the earth and souls to the stream, those left grieving said anoshe.

Anoshe brought solace. And hope. And the strength to let go. — V.E Schwab

Chance Meetings Quotes By C. C. H. Pounder

I considered myself very lucky after 'Baghdad Cafe,' and I have 'The Shield.' In every genre, I've kicked butt at some point. I'm real happy. — C. C. H. Pounder

Chance Meetings Quotes By Paul Theroux

I never stay with people and I never look people up when I travel. I depend more on just chance meetings. The advantage is that people don't know who I am. I meet people casually and they're not doing me a big favor because I'm going to write something. — Paul Theroux

Chance Meetings Quotes By Boris Pasternak

How well she does everything! She reads not as if reading were the highest human activity, but as if it were the simplest possible thing, a thing even animals could do. As if she were carrying water from a well, or peeling potatoes.
These reflections calmed him. A rare peace descended upon his soul. His mind stopped darting from subject to subject. He could not help smiling ... — Boris Pasternak

Chance Meetings Quotes By J.K. Rowling

Gifts to benefit the poor ... are charitable, and a gift for the poor is charitable even if it happens incidentally to benefit the rich — J.K. Rowling
