1 " ...but if there was one thing that all my years as the Spider, all the battles, all the brushes with my own death, had taught me, then it was THIS.That THIS was what was important. This moment right now and all the ones that we are lucky enough to have after it. Today, tomorrow, hell, maybe even forever. "
― Jennifer Estep , Heart of Venom (Elemental Assassin, #9)
2 " Have you ever trained a girl to become a semizard?" " In all my years here?" He shook his auburn-tailed head slightly. " No." " Can't women use magic?" Smiling faintly that he had caught onto that, the wizard replied, " They already do. "
3 " The way he said her name made my heart cramp. In all my years of word collecting, I've learned this to be a tried and true fact: I can very often tell how much a person loves another person by the way they say their name. I think that's one of the best feelings in the world, when you know your name is safe in another person's mouth. When you know they'll never shout it out like a cuss word, but say it or whisper it like a once-upon-a-time. "
4 " During all my years as an evangelist,my message has always been the Gospel of Christ.It is not a Western religion, nor is it a message of one culture or political system . , .it is a message of life and hope for all the world. "
― Billy Graham , Billy Graham in Quotes
5 " He stood just near the club’s steps, his back to me along the foggy English night, and it was not until I’d passed him and began my ascent of the many steps that I’d heard his voice. The voice I knew, in all my years of living upon the Earth, that I would never forget. Even then I had known this. It was the slippery way of his tongue, or perhaps it was the coolness of which his words passed across the air and slid its way into my ears as though they were only meant for me. "
― S.C. Parris , A Night of Frivolity
6 " That is one thing that in all my years among your folk I have never become accustomed to. The great importance that you attach to what gender one is. "
― Robin Hobb , Assassin's Quest (Farseer Trilogy, #3)
7 " God uses prepared vessels, no substitute. God is not looking for a rocket scientist, he's looking for those with a mind, and then he will finish the rest. It's like, 'God, here I am, send me,' and He will do the rest. He will prepare you. He will provide for your preparation. One thing I have seen in all my years of travel all over the world and in teaching and in proclaiming the Gospel, whoever is hungry for the word, God will break every barrier to get to that person. And who wants to know God, God will make Himself available to that person - somewhere somehow. The problem the church is having today is we have so many unprepared vessels in the church, and it's showing everywhere. "
8 " Tolerance. In all my years of debating politics and religion no mind was changed with derision and no thought convicted by way of harshness. You have no right to demand tolerance while deriding others and their beliefs in the process. Want tolerance? Extend it. You’ll be surprised because given it, people will actually listen. "
― Donna Lynn Hope
9 " After all my years of playing soldiers, and then of reading History, I have almost a mania to be in the East, to see fighting, and to serve. "
10 " In all my years as an actor, I had never been me - I had always hidden behind my glasses, mustaches and funny voices. "
