Real Quotes
Real love is more than a physical feeling. If there's even the slightest doubt in your head about a guy, then forget about it. It's not real.
Ethan Embry
We tend to think of memories as monuments we once forged and may find intact beneath the weedy growth of years. But, in a real sense, memories are tied to and describe the present. Formed in an idiosyncratic way when they happened, they're also true to the moment of recall, including how you feel, all you've experienced, and new values, passions, and vulnerability. One never steps into the same stream of consciousness twice.
Diane Ackerman
I started playing around with local rock band swith the alto. And then, in a nutshell, somebody fell ill one night, the lead singer of one of the bands, and they knew I could sing, so they asked me if I would stand in. And I quite enjoyed it, actually, I must say, at 14. It was a real trip to have girls wave at you and smile and everything just because you opened your mouth and sang.
David Bowie
The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all the departments in one, and thus to create whatever the form of government, a real despotism.

George Washington
But the real glory of science is that we can find a way of thinking such that the law is evident.
Richard Feynman
To be too conscious is an illness. A real thorough going illness.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Someone once defined a social problem as a situation in which the real world differs from the theories of intellectuals. To the intelligentsia, it follows, as the night follows the day, that it is the real world that is wrong and which needs to change.
Thomas Sowell
Silver is purified in fire and so are we. It is in the most trying times that our real character is shaped and revealed.
Helen Keller
The experience taught me to be present in the real Buddhist sense of paying attention to the moment.
Sandra Cisneros
I have found that-- just as in real life--imagination sometimes has to stand in for experience.
Steve Martin
The major adventure is to claim your authentic, true being, which is not culturally given to you. The culture will not explain to you how to be a real human being. It will tell you how to be banker, politician, Indian chief, masseuses, actress, whatever, but it will not give you true being.
Terence McKenna
You know, real artists, we expose our flaws. We long for intimacy.
Anna Deavere Smith
