life noticed people tend
I've noticed that most people tend to go through life preserving their differences from others.
people
People who think dying is the worst thing don't know a thing about life.
people grew grew-up
From now on when people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I planned to say, Amnesiac.
mom world-love people
It only meant that my natural inclination was to draw my "energy" from within instead of seeking it outside myself, plus my mom was an introvcert, and so were a lot of normal people. The problem was I was shy on top of that. And we all know how the world loves a shy introvert.
people kind wonder
I watched him, filled with tenderness and ache, wondering what it was that connected us. Was it the wounded places down inside people that sought each other out, that bred a kind of love between them?
ideas people secret
Most people don't have any idea about all the complicated life going on inside a hive. Bees have a secret life we don't know anything about.
people different way
People can start out one way, and by the time life gets through with them they end up completely different.
white people house
Up until then I'd thought that white people and colored people getting along was the big aim, but after that I decided everybody being colorless together was a better plan. I thought of that policeman, Eddie Hazelwurst, saying I'd lowered myself to be in this house of colored women, and for the very life of me I couldn't understand how it had turned out this way, how colored women had become the lowest ones on the totem pole. You only had to look at them to see how special they were, like hidden royalty among us. Eddie Hazelwurst. What a shitbucket.
what-matters people problem
The whole problem with people is they don't know what matters and what doesn't.
people giving dull
If you aren't giving people something to talk about, you've become too dull.
people knows capable
So few people know what they're capable of.
ideas creating people
Look, I know you meant well creating the world and all, but how could you let it get away from you like this? How come you couldn't stick with your original idea of paradise? People's lives were a mess.
writing thinking people
I think many people need, even require, a narrative version of their life. I seem to be one of them. Writing memoir is, in some ways, a work of wholeness.
heart writing people
It's always been my hope that I would write a story that would inspire and would connect with people in a way that would touch hearts.
