Anxiety Quotes

After all, what is happiness? Love, they tell me. But love doesn't bring and never has brought happiness. On the contrary, it's a constant state of anxiety, a battlefield; it's sleepless nights, asking ourselves all the time if we're doing the right thing. Real love is composed of ecstasy and agony.

Paulo Coelho

Whenever he was in company he wanted to get away, and whenever he was alone he wanted company.

J.K. Rowling

Anxiety's like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but it doesn't get you very far.

Jodi Picoult

In any weather, at any hour of the day or night, I have been anxious to improve the nick of time, and notch it on my stick too; to stand on the meeting of two eternities, the past and future, which is precisely the present moment; to toe that line.

Henry David Thoreau
