“Anger can be defeated by controlling our emotions without upsetting the nerves.”
Munia Khan“Set up another case bartender! The best thing for a case of nerves is a case of Scotch.”
W. C. Fields“And now, for something completely the same:Wasted time and wasted breath,'s what I'll make, until my death.Helping people 'd be as good,but I wouldn't, if I could.For the few that help deserve,have no need, or not the nerve,help from strangers to accept,plus from mine a few have wept.Wept from joy, or from despair,or just from my vengeful stare.Ways I have, to look at stupid,make them see I am not Cupid.Make them see they are in error,for of truth I am a bearer.Most decide I'm just a bear,mauling at them, - like I care.”
Will Advise, Nothing is here...“What is this thing called life? I believeThat the earth and the stars too, and the whole glittering universe, and rocks on the mountains have life,Only we do not call it so--I speak of the lifeThat oxidizes fats and proteins and carbo-Hydrates to live on, and from that chemical energyMakes pleasure and pain, wonder, love, adoration, hatred and terror: how do these things growFrom a chemical reaction?I think they were here already, I think the rocksAnd the earth and the other planets, and the stars and the galaxieshave their various consciousness, all things are conscious;But the nerves of an animal, the nerves and brainBring it to focus; the nerves and brain are like a burning-glassTo concentrate the heat and make it catch fire:It seems to us martyrs hotter than the blazing hearthFrom which it came. So we scream and laugh, clamorous animalsBorn howling to die groaning: the old stones in the dooryardPrefer silence; but those and all things have their own awareness,As the cells of a man have; they feel and feed and influence each other, each unto all,Like the cells of a man's body making one being,They make one being, one consciousness, one life, one God.”
Robinson Jeffers, The Selected Poetry“While a kind man was working up the nerve to ask me on a date, I was working up the nerve to kill him with my bare hands”
Amy McAuley, Violins of Autumn“Just as we know when we strike a metaphorical nerve with someone, we also know when we tap into what inspires them.”
Elaina Marie, Happiness is Overrated - Live the Inspired Life Instead“I also knew that the deep rumble rolling through us was only nerves, a sensitivity to imagined repercussion, as if a sound were built into revenge.”
Nathan Englander“I should’ve been very cross with Anubis. Kissing me without permission—the nerve!”
Rick Riordan, The Throne of Fire
