More quotes by William Saroyan

William Saroyan

William Saroyan

William Saroyan
Every artist is in everything he creates, and indeed if the truth is told, every person is in his life, in his work, whatever his work may be, and this is visible in his face, figure, stance, movement, and totality.
William Saroyan

William Saroyan
Love doesn't have to be perfect. Even perfect, it is still the best thing there is, for the simple reason that it is the most common and constant truth of all, of all life, all law and order, the very thing which holds everything together, which permits everything to move along in time and be its wonderful or ordinary self.
William Saroyan
Be grateful for yourself...be thankful.
William Saroyan
Remember that every man is a variation of yourself
William Saroyan
Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure.
William Saroyan
San Francisco itself is art, above all literary art. Every block is a short story, every hill a novel. Every home a poem, every dweller within immortal. That is the whole truth.
William Saroyan
We didn't say anything because there was such an awful lot to say, and no language to say it in.
William Saroyan
You must not be unkind, especially when it happens that you're right.
William Saroyan
All things lie dark in possibility.
William Saroyan
