Dartingly Quotes & Sayings

Up the coast a few miles north, in a lava reef under the cliffs, there are a lot of rock pools. You can visit them when the tide is out.

Gratification, instant and lavish, is a birthright. You might as well say 'Oh, I shouldn't really' if someone tells you to take a deep breath. — Bill Bryson

My biggest thing is to teach not to focus on the aesthetic. It's really about who you are, and the human being, that makes you beautiful. — Beyonce Knowles

I distrust thought. The interior life is highly overrated. I don't like the wispy and the vague ... or inductive logic in any kind of writing. I'm impatient with writers who make too much sense. The better things that I've done have come to me by instinct. — Barry Hannah
