Top Garishness Quotes

Garishness Quotes By Philip G. Zimbardo

Western societies want men to be upstanding, proactive citizens who take responsibility for themselves, who work with others to improve their communities and nation as a whole. The irony is that society is not giving the support, guidance, means, or places for these young men even to be motivated or interested in aspiring to these goals. In fact, society - from politics to the media to the classroom to our very own families - is a major contributor to this demise because it is inhibiting young men's intellectual, creative, and social abilities right from the start. And the irony is only compounded by the fact that men play such a powerful part in society, which means they are effectively denying their younger counterparts the opportunity to thrive. — Philip G. Zimbardo

Garishness Quotes By John Le Carre

I don't think that there are very many good writers who don't live without a sense of tension. If they haven't got one immediately available to them, then they usually manage to manufacture it in their private lives. — John Le Carre

Garishness Quotes By Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

When you have breakfasted well and fully, if you will drink a big cup of chocolate at the end you will have digested the whole perfectly three hours later, and you will still be able to dine. Because of my scientific enthusiasm and the sheer force of my eloquence I have persuaded a number of ladies to try this, although they were convinced it would kill them; they have always found themselves in fine shape indeed, and have not forgotten to give the Professor his rightful due. — Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

As much as I'm enjoying stuff out here in Hollywood, I will always think of myself as a comic-book writer who does film and television, not a film and TV writer who occasionally does comics. — Brian K. Vaughan

Garishness Quotes By Brian Moore

She watched the glass, a plain woman, changing all to the delightful illusion of beauty. There was still time: for her ugliness was destined to bloom late, hidden first by the unformed gawkiness of youth, budding to plainness in young womanhood and now flowering to slow maturity in her early forties, it still awaited the subtle garishness which only decay could bring to fruition: a garishness which, when arrived at, would preclude all efforts at the mirror game. — Brian Moore

Garishness Quotes By Barry McGee

I want to do just, like, regular art. Whatever is made today on canvas goes up against all of art history. It's the most radical thing. — Barry McGee

Garishness Quotes By Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

Better gray than garishness. — Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

Garishness Quotes By Cameron Jace

Older folks usually wear their own masks when they deal with children, but Lewis opened up and let go. He accepted who he was and what the world around him was like, and decided he would only see the good in all the mess. — Cameron Jace

Garishness Quotes By Michael K. Williams

Having been through the muck and mire, I've had my own brush with bad choices. — Michael K. Williams

My family despised Faberge objects as emblems of grotesque garishness. — Vladimir Nabokov

I'm a real stay-at-home mom. I'm really hands-on. Everything else became secondary. — Drew Barrymore

Garishness Quotes By Haruki Murakami

I was not too crazy about sleeping with girls I didn't know. It was an easy way to take care of my sex drive of course, and I did enjoy all the holding and touching, but I hated the morning after. I'd wake up and find this strange girl sleeping next to me, and the room would reek of alcohol, and the bed and the lighting and the curtains had that special "love hotel" garishness, and my head would be in a hungover fog. — Haruki Murakami

Garishness Quotes By G.K. Chesterton

In truth it is inequality that is the illusion. The extreme disproportion between men, that we seem to see in life, is a thing of changing lights and lengthening shadows, a twilight full of fancies and distortions. — G.K. Chesterton

Garishness Quotes By Anita Moorjani

Unconditional Love is our birthright, not judgment or condemnation, and there's nothing we need to do to earn it. This is simply who and what we are. — Anita Moorjani

Garishness Quotes By Peter De Vries

There are times when breakfast seems the one thing worth getting up for ... — Peter De Vries

Garishness Quotes By Jay Caspian Kang

The worst have scraped out the mantle of the best and wear it around as something real. It takes no genius to see that. But I moved to San Francisco because the masquerade of kindly gestures is, at least, kind. And it remains kind. And all the people who would sit back and comment on the garishness of the costumes, the hollowness of the dialogue, the lack of divine conviction, well, all those people are either dead or fifteen years old. — Jay Caspian Kang

Garishness Quotes By Al Swearengen

Change ain't looking for friends. Change calls the tune we all dance to. — Al Swearengen

Garishness Quotes By Chiune Sugihara

Do what is right because it is right; and leave it alone. — Chiune Sugihara

Garishness Quotes By Lisa See

A woman isn't just one thing. The past is in us, constantly changing us. Heartache and failure shift our perspectives as do joy and triumphs. At any moment, on any given day, we can be friends, competitors, or enemies. We can be generous or stingy, loving or petty, helpful or untrustworthy. — Lisa See
