Ionic Quotes

1. "...the cross of popular evangelicalism is not the cross of the New Testament. It is, rather, a new bright ornament upon the bosom of a self-assured and carnal Christianity whose hands are indeed the hands of Abel, but whose voice is the voice of Cain. The old cross slew men; the new cross entertains them. The old cross condemned; the new cross amuses. The old cross destroyed confidence in the flesh; the new cross encourages it. The old cross brought tears and blood; the new cross brings laughter. The flesh, smiling and confident, preaches and sings about the cross; before the cross it bows and toward the cross it points with carefully staged histrionics--but upon that cross it will not die, and the reproach of that cross it stubbornly refuses to bear."
Author: A.W. Tozer

2. "The future wafts in and out of my world like a ghost - like a lumbering beast, begging to be tamed. For so long it sat locked in mystery, surrounding me, fickle as the wind. I see it now for the noose it is, the game that never satisfies, the warrior that always kills.The past proved to be set in stone, the immovable rock of my existence that cast its shadow into the valley of death. But it is the future's bright light that draws me in, the blinding rays that pull me forward with bionic, magnetic, force. They row me towards my destiny with indescribable power, to a fate questionably determined - washed in the patina of hope."
Author: Addison Moore

Author: Anyaele Sam Chiyson

4. "I'm relieved to seethat even brilliant physicists make mistakes."Kohler looked over. "What do you mean?""Whoever wrote that note made a mistake. That column isn't Ionic. Ionic columns are uniform in width. That one's tapered. It's Doric—the Greek counterpart. A common mistake."Kohler did not smile. "The author meant it as a joke, Mr. Langdon. Ionic means containing ions—electrically charged particles. Most objects contain them."
Author: Dan Brown

5. "Leftist reactions are always histrionic."
Author: Dave Sim

6. "I always want to bring emotion across in a straightforward way. I don't want to get histrionic when I'm singing. For me that's just not interesting; it goes too far down one road."
Author: Dido Armstrong

7. "When you're a kid, if you watch 'The Jeffersons' with your family at seven o'clock, it seems like a natural phenomenon, like the sun setting. The universe is a strange, strange place when all of a sudden you can't use your glass with the Bionic Woman on it any more."
Author: Heather O'Neill

8. "Look I have somewhere I have to be and I don't particularly love that I have to go, but you freaking out and making a scene is not going to do anything other than piss me off. I hope you had a good time last night and you can leave your number but we both know the chances of me calling you are slim to none. If you don't want to be treated like crap maybe you should stop going home with drunken dudes you don't know. Trust me we're really only after one thing and the next morning all we really want is for you to go quietly away. I have a headache and I feel like I'm going to hurl, plus I have to spend the next hour in a car with someone that will be silently loathing me and joyously plotting my death so really can we just save the histrionics and get a move on it?"
Author: Jay Crownover

9. "Narcissism falls along the axis of what psychologists call personality disorders, one of a group that includes antisocial, dependent, histrionic, avoidant and borderline personalities. But by most measures, narcissism is one of the worst, if only because the narcissists themselves are so clueless."
Author: Jeffrey Kluger

Author: Kristin Hannah

12. "In fact, when some wedding guest inevitably complains about the seating arrangements, you might point out how long it would have taken you to consider every possibility: assuming you spent one second considering each one, it would come to more than half a million years. The unhappy guest will assume, of course, that you are being histrionic."
Author: Leonard Mlodinow

13. "No, we're not getting married," I told my mother on the phone when she asked. "He's going to California and I'm staying here." Usually she doesn't phone. Usually she just does things like send me notes with histrionic scrawlings that read, "Well, you know, I can't use these," and along with the notes she encloses coupons for Kotex or Midol."
Author: Lorrie Moore

14. "We have begun to slam doors, and to throw things. I throw my purse, an ashtray, a package of chocolate chips, which breaks on impact. We are picking up chocolate chips for days. Jon throws a glass of milk, the milk, not the glass: he knows his own strength, as I do not. He throws a box of Cheerios, unopened.The things I throw miss, although they are worse things. The things he throws hit, but are harmless.I begin to see how the line is crossed, between histrionics and murder."
Author: Margaret Atwood

17. "Rekao bih da je kolicina dosade, ako se dosadu može izmjeriti, danas mnogo veca nego nekoc. Jer su nekadašnja zanimanja, barem velikim dijelom, bila nezamisliva bez strastvene predanosti: seljaci zaljubljeni u svoju zemlju; moj djed, carobnjak lijepih stolova; postolari su znali napamet stopala svojih suseljana; šumari; vrtlari; pretostavljam da su tada cak i vojnici ubijali sa strašcu. Pitanje smisla života nije se postavljalo, bilo je njima posve prirodno, u njihovim radionicama, njihovim poljima. Svako je zanimalnje stvorilo vlastiti nacin mišljenja, vlastiti nacin postojanja. Lijecnik je razmišljao drugacije od seljaka, vojnik se ponašao drukcije od ucitelja. Danas smo svi jednaki, ujedinjeni zajednickom ravnodušnošcu prema svom poslu. Ta ravnodušnost postala je strašcu. Jednom velikom kolektivnom strašcu našega doba."
Author: Milan Kundera

Author: Sandra Bullock

19. "Vidi la mia vita diramarsi davanti a me come il verde albero di fico del racconto. Dalla punta di ciascun ramo occhieggiava e ammiccava, come un bel fico maturo, un futuro meraviglioso. Un fico rappresentava un marito e dei figli e una vita domestica felice, un altro fico rappresentava la famosa poetessa, un altro la brillante accademica, un altro ancora era Esther Greenwood, direttrice di una prestigiosa rivista, un altro era l'Europa e l'Africa e il Sudamerica, un altro fico era Costantin, Socrate, Attila e tutta una schiera di amanti dai nomi bizzarri e dai mestieri anticonvenzionali, un altro fico era la campionessa olimpionica di vela, e dietro e al di sopra di questi fichi ce n'erano molti altri che non riuscivo a distinguere. E vidi me stessa seduta alla biforcazione dell'albero, che morivo di fame per non saper decidere quale fico cogliere."
Author: Sylvia Plath

20. "Those of us who work in the field of trauma and abuse, whether psychologists, psychoanalysts, social workers, doctors, counselors, or psychotherapists, have been provided with beautiful tools for understanding the impact of trauma. We become adept at understanding the dynamic of why the messenger is always shot and broadcast the Bionic insight of why the visionary is not bearable to the group.However, when it comes to military mind control, abuse within religious belief groups or cults, and deliberately created dissociative identity disorder, we enter the least resourced field of all."
Author: Valerie Sinason

21. "In Europe life is histrionic and dramatized, and in America, except when it is trying to be European, it is direct and sincere."
Author: William Dean Howells
