Frauen sind die Holzwolle in der Glaskiste des Lebens
Kurt TucholskyDer Spruch darf mit Autorenangabe frei verwendet werden, da die urheberrechtliche Schutzfrist abgelaufen ist († 21. Dezember 1935) Zur Autorenbiographie
Der Glaube sei wie ein Glas Wasser. Bist du jung, ist das Glas klein, also leicht zu füllen. Wenn du älter wirst, wird es immer größer und die selbe Menge Wasser füllt es nicht mehr. Man muss das Glas von Zeit zu Zeit wieder auffüllen.
That is the fear: I have lost something important, and I cannot find it, and I need it. It is fear like if someone lost his glasses and went to the glasses store and they told him that the world had run out of glasses and he would just have to do without.
You know, he told me once, completely exasperated, you've got one glass of water inside your head, with all the tears for a lifetime. If you waste them over nothing, t hen you won't be able to cry for real when you need to.
Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable, And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table. No one can find the rewind button boys, So cradle your head in your hands, And breathe, just breathe.
Just when you think things can't get any worse, they do. I've learned that life is like hour glass sand. Sooner or later, everything hits rock bottom, but all you have to do is be patient and wait for something to turn everything back around.
We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment, or say goodbye just one last time, we never can, because the sands of time continue to fall, and we can't turn the hourglass over.
