There are moments in life, when the heart is so full of emotion That if by chance it be shaken, or into its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word, it overflows, and its secret, Spilt on the ground like water, can never be gathered together
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
It is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn
I cry a lot. My emotions are very close to my surface. I don`t want to hold anything in so it festers and turns into pus - a pustule of emotion that explodes into a festering cesspool of depression.
Nicolas Cage
Poor Faulkner. Does he really think big emotions come from big words? He thinks I don`t know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use.
Ernest Hemingway
