miriamelizabeth“It was all bad, very bad. And the worst of it was not that they had ceased waiting, but that they had ceased to have faith.”
Georgi Vladimov, Faithful Ruslan“When, at last, I ceased to be myself, I came to be.”
Kamand Kojouri“The question is precisely to know whether the past has ceased to exist, or ceased to be useful...”

Stephen R. Lawhead, The Paradise War“...for a country whose people ceased to believe in magic soon lost much of their ability to imagine and dream, and before long, they ceased to believe--or hope-- for anything.”
Mercedes Lackey, The Fairy Godmother“When sin ceases to pay, we have a happy knack of finding out that it is wrong; so after a bit, when Virginia, and Georgia and the Carolinas had ceased to belong to us, we began to denounce this trade in African flesh, and to denounce it in no stinted terms.”
W. F. Butler“As I continued to pray raggedly, prayer ceased to be an awkward and self-conscious act. It became a daily need to which I looked forward. If, for any reason, I were deprived of it, I was distressed as if I had been deprived of some life necessity, like water. I cannot say I changed. There tore through me a transformation with the force of a river, which, dammed up and diverted for a lifetime, bursts its way back to its true channel. I became what I was. I ceased to be what I was not.”
Whittaker Chambers, Witness“The important thing is not to lie to yourself. He who lies to himself and listens to his own lies reaches a state in which he no longer recognizes truth either in himself or in others, and so he ceases to respect both himself and others. Having ceased to respect everyone, he stops loving, and then, in the absence of love, in order to occupy and divert himself, he abandons himself to passions and the gratification of coarse pleasures until his vices bring him down to the level of bestiality, and all on account of his being constantly false both to himself and to others.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
