I never stopped drinking, I just don't drink that much anymore. You know, sometimes on the weekends, it's not like a daily thing.
Chuck Mosley
Image
I stopped hating and started just being. My whole life, I had been the most defensive person you'd meet, unable to tolerate any criticism. But now I started listening and being.
Anthony Kiedis

At 24 I decided that my life is enough for me, and I stopped looking for some other piece to complete it. I also learned how to needlepoint ironic cross-stitches of rap lyrics and gave them to my friends as presents. I’ll let you decide which is the more important revelation.

A lady with a clipboard stopped me in the street the other day. She said, 'Can you spare a few minutes for cancer research?' I said, 'All right, but we won't get much done.'

What was after the universe? Nothing. But was there anything round the universe to show where it stopped before the nothing place began?
James Joyce

...this time I didn't launch into my usual tirade. Was it a memory of Krishna, the cool silence with which he countered disagreement, that stopped me? I saw something I hadn't realized before: words wasted energy.

All that's different about me is that I still ask the questions most people stopped asking at age five.

I stopped taking drugs [in 1983]. There were a lot of things that led up to it. One thing was that a lover died. An ex of mine died in a car wreck and I was really trashed when I found out about it and I couldn't cry. I woke up the next morning and I said, That's it, so I quit then. It was horrible.

In doing zazen it is desirable to have a quiet room. You should be temperate in eating and drinking, forsaking all delusive relationships. Setting everything aside, think of neither good nor evil, right nor wrong. Thus having stopped the various functions of your mind, five up even the idea of becoming a Buddha.
Dogen

Remember, the firemen are rarely necessary. The public itself stopped reading of its own accord.

Flute was actually my first instrument. I had a year of lessons and then stopped after feeling like I was going to faint all of the time.

Reading is professionally important for me to keep tuned in to what's being written in my genre, let's not lie. But that's not the reason I read. I read for my own emotional and mental health. If I stopped reading, I'd probably just die.

Somewhere on this globe, every ten seconds, there is a woman giving birth to a child. She must be found and stopped.

As Stephanie and Lula were going after the bad guys, Lula was making preparations from the trunk of her Firebird. Stephanie looked inside and stopped breathing for a beat. That's a rocket launcher! Yep, Lula said. It's a big boy. I got it at a yard sale in the projects.
Janet Evanovich

I suppose you know where this country would be, where the world would be, if everyone who got depressed by the papers stopped reading them.

It can be very frustrating and very deflating to be constantly defined and described by other people, so I've stopped reading anything written about me, and I find it much healthier. I just sort of concentrate on what I do and don't worry too much about that.
Ani DiFranco

I've stopped doing things that aren't clear comedy gigs - to do something that's not comedy night, it's a difficult thing. People have to be given permission to laugh. You need to know it's comedy otherwise you might just think I'm a man talking out loud.

She looked up at the sky, now tinged with orange. Please live. Talk, think, act. And sometimes listen to music... She stopped briefly. Look at paintings, allow yourself to be moved. Laugh a lot, and at times, cry. And if you find a wonderful girl, then you go for her, and love her.

What is the sound of Perl? Is it not the sound of a wall that people have stopped banging their heads against?
Larry Wall

I don't think acting is addictive. If I stopped acting tomorrow, I really wouldn't care. If you told me that I would have to sell real estate in New York City to look after my family, that would be fine with me.
Alec Baldwin
Image
God left so many fingerprints at the scene of Creation that you wonder — does He want to be found, or does He want to be stopped?
Robert Breault
Image
And then their voices stopped and their souls stood still and they ceased being who they had been. Because who they were had always been determined by him.
