“I am clumsy, drop glasses and get drunk on Monday afternoons. I read Seneca and can recite Shakespeare by heart, but I mess up the laundry, don鈥檛 answer my phone and blame the world when something goes wrong. I think I have a dream, but most of the days I鈥檓 still sleeping. The grass is cut. It smells like strawberries. Today I finished four books and cleaned my drawers.
Do you believe in a God? Can I tell you about Icarus? How he flew too close to the sun?

I want to make coming home your favourite part of the day. I want to leave tiny little words lingering in your mind, on nights when you鈥檙e far away and can鈥檛 sleep. I want to make everything around us beautiful; make small things mean a little more. Make you feel a little more. A little better, a little lighter. The coffee is warm, this cup is yours. I want to be someone you can鈥檛 live without.

I want to be someone you can鈥檛 live without.”

“His life was a constant war with insensate objects that fell apart, or attacked him, or refused to function, or viciously got themselves lost as soon as they entered the sphere of his existence.”
― Vladimir Nabokov, Pnin

“He was rather clumsy and shy and looked as if he'd spent the last ten years of his life locked up in a library - hardly the kind of man any girl your age dreams of ...”

“She was smart like that, and lucky like that, and people loved the hell out of her. They didn鈥檛 love the hell out of me; they ran the hell away from me. It wasn鈥檛 like I was a bad person or anything, I just 鈥� had a lot of accidents. I didn鈥檛 mean accidents like I ate glue and then peed myself on a regular basis. I just tripped more than usual, and accidently set things on fire more than what would be considered 鈥榥ormal鈥�. I got kicked out of the village school only one moon-cycle before graduation for accidently making one of the teachers bald. How do you accidently make someone bald? That鈥檚 a good question. All you really need is a bucket of warm tar to accidently toss onto the back of their head. How do you get a bucket of warm tar? You don鈥檛 go looking for it or anything鈥攐r at least I didn鈥檛. It was just sitting on the road outside the school and I thought I should carry it inside to ask what it was.”

“Humans spent thousands of years looking up at the stars and wondering what was out there. You guys never saw stars at all but you still worked space travel. What an amazing people you Eridians must be. Scientific geniuses.'

The knot in the tape comes loose, recoils wildly, and smacks Rocky's hand. He shakes the affected hand in pain for a moment, then continues messing with the tape measure.

'Yeah, you're definitely a scientist.”

“We do like to have such good opinions of our own motives when we're about to do something harmful, to someone else. But as Mr. Erskine also pointed out, Eros with his bow and arrows is not the only blind god. Justitia is the other one. Clumsy blind gods with edged weapons: Justicia totes a sword, which, coupled with her blindfold, is a pretty good recipe for cutting yourself.”
― Margaret Atwood, The Blind Assassin

“The genius of Laplace was a perfect sledge hammer in bursting purely mathematical obstacles; but, like that useful instrument, it gave neither finish nor beauty to the results. In truth, in truism if the reader please, Laplace was neither Lagrange nor Euler, as every student is made to feel. The second is power and symmetry, the third power and simplicity; the first is power without either symmetry or simplicity. But, nevertheless, Laplace never attempted investigation of a subject without leaving upon it the marks of difficulties conquered: sometimes clumsily, sometimes indirectly, always without minuteness of design or arrangement of detail; but still, his end is obtained and the difficulty is conquered.”
― Augustus De Morgan

“You know you're a clumsy person when you cause other people to fall down.

“The last time I checked, I wasn鈥檛 the one who tripped over a glass container of sugar that I had myself dropped... after, of course, having received several bruises from an attempt to retrieve a flip-flop that had somehow ended up in the sink.”
― Gina Marinello-Sweeney, I Thirst

“My first impression of [Patricia Highsmith] was a loneliness, a sadness in one so young (we were both in our early thirties) with absolutely no sense of joy or balance. Gauche to an extreme, really physically clumsy as well as boyish, it was almost impossible to put her at ease. It was as if she felt a deep distrust of everything.”
― Patricia Schartle

“I assume a constant state
of genuflection, retrieving
pills, pens, coins: they flee
my grasp like Mexican jumping
beans. Please do not ask me
to carry the groceries, hang
pictures, dust the mantle. I
succumb to indexterity.”
― Jon Obermeyer

“You match, you know? Your outsides and your insides are beautiful,鈥� David says, and he throws one arm stiffly over my shoulder. The movement is awkward and clumsy and because of this awkwardness and clumsiness鈥攏ot despite it鈥擨鈥檓 charmed.”
― Julie Buxbaum, What to Say Next

“Words are not only a clumsy and ambiguous means of communication, they are extraordinarily slow.”
― John Holt, How Children Learn

“Yet while Owllwin was arrogant, he was also humble enough to admit when he had made a mistake. Perhaps it was his sheer clumsiness that kept him so humble: the first time he spoke to Cricket was in the great dining hall, and he brought down six tables five minutes after.”
― Ash Gray, The Infinite Athenaeum

“Not wanting her to become discouraged, Giles waved the tennis ball over his head, staying her swing before she could miss and send another ball flying backward into the Ashley River or smacking into the net. It was a miracle she hadn鈥檛 lobbed a ball through one of the long windows of the house. 'You鈥檝e done wonderfully for your first lesson, but let鈥檚 say we call it a day?”

“To her delight, a tiny fairy tumbled through the letterbox and landed on the doormat with a bump and a merry laugh.
"Oh dear," she said. "I keep hoping that I'll learn to be graceful, but I'm not so sure! Hello, Kirsty. I'm Niamh the Invitation Fairy.”
