― Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker

“Power is of two kinds. One is obtained by the fear of punishment and the other by acts of love. Power based on love is a thousand times more effective and permanent than the one derived from fear of punishment.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“For there are two kinds of forgiveness in the world: the one you practice because everything really is all right, and what went before is mended. The other kind of forgiveness you practice because someone needs desperately to be forgiven, or because you need just as badly to forgive them, for a heart can grab hold of old wounds and go sour as milk over them.”
― Catherynne M. Valente, The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There

― Ann Brashares, The Second Summer of the Sisterhood

“There are two kind of men,' said Ka, in a didatic voice. 'The first kind does not fall in love until he's seen how the girls eats a sandwich, how she combs her hair, what sort of nonsense she cares about, why she's angry at her father, and what sort of stories people tell about her. The second type of man -- and I am in this category -- can fall in love with a woman only if he knows next to nothing about her.”
― Orhan Pamuk, Snow

“There are two kinds of idiots - those who don't take action because they have received a threat, and those who think they are taking action because they have issued a threat.”

― W.H. Auden

“There's two kinds of women--those you write poems about and those you don't.”
― Jeffrey McDaniel

“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”
― Miguel Cervantes

“There are two kinds of light - the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures.”

― Indira Gandhi

― Lauren King

“There were only two kinds of people in our town. ―The stupid and the stuck- ―The ones who are bound to stay or too dumb to go. Everyone else finds a way out.”
― Kami Garcia, Beautiful Creatures

“Life is such unutterable hell, solely because it is sometimes beautiful. If we could only be miserable all the time, if there could be no such things as love or beauty or faith or hope, if I could be absolutely certain that my love would never be returned: how much more simple life would be. One could plod through the Siberian salt mines of existence without being bothered about happiness.”
― T.H. White, Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Stories That Scared Even Me

“The dichotomy between lightness and weightiness in life
resonates with many aspects of human existence. By shedding tangible and intangible burdens, we can achieve freedom and peace of mind. ("The unbearable heaviness of being")”
― Erik Pevernagie

“You're thoughtful, Barbara, but you're not open. You're passionate, but you're hard. You're a good, decent, funny, wonderful woman, and I love you, but you're a pain in the ass.”
― Tracy Letts, August: Osage County

“Those who consider the inessential to be essential
And see the essential as inessential
Don't reach the essential,
Living in the field of wrong intention”
― The Buddha, The Dhammapada

“You have two kinds of secrets. The ones only you know. The ones only you don't.”
― James Richardson

“I continue to live inside a dichotomy: what was and what shall be. The pain in my skull is me trying to mesh the two.”
― Chila Woychik, On Being a Rat and Other Observations

“Most ecofeminists reject dichotomies and hierarchies as alien to the natural world â€� nature is interconnections.”
― Lisa Kemmerer, Sister Species: Women, Animals and Social Justice

“Dichotomies are most mischevious when they arbitrarily separate parts of a highly interrelated and complex system.”
― David Ehrenfeld

“After what happens next, most would say Lewis took a turn. Maybe not yet for the worst, because definitions of right and wrong, good and bad, light and dark become nebulous and subjective in uncommon circumstances.”
― Emily Habeck, Shark Heart

“Whenever Daddy would take me to the ocean, I'd see it in its beauty--the blues and turquoises of the water, the ripples and movements that drenched my ears in soothing sounds. But Daddy never took me there during the storms. We didn't go to shore when a hurricane came or the waves crashed high and hard onto the sand. What Daddy had come to know was the dichotomy, the mixing of the beauty and destruction, the awe and devastation that the force of nature could unleash.”
― Meagan Church, The Last Carolina Girl

“There are moments in life that speed up too fast, go by more quickly than we want--the last moments of a painted sky at sunset before darkness comes, the final purr of a cat drifting off to sleep, the contagious laugh of a loved one. But then there are moments that slow down despite us wanting them to go away.”
― Meagan Church, The Last Carolina Girl

“The guy was typical of the deep dichotomy in human nature, with nobility and evil, darkness and light, love and hate as impossible to disentangle, to separate from each other, as it was to split the gasp. An impossible fission, a fusion as intricate, fundamental as that of culture with civilization.”
― Romain Gary, The Gasp

“But the reliance on national power and "power politics" as the basis of the new League by the professionals inside the State Department - and the emotional rejection of both by millions of people unconnected with the realities of government - created a dichotomy between professional government and the American citizenry that was to grow over the next twenty years.”
― T. R. Fehrenbach

“It is the interplay between the brilliance of our joy and the abyss of our suffering that defines us. We are creatures of light born from the womb of darkness, forever navigating the dichotomy of exaltation and despair. This oscillation—this profound dance between the zeniths of happiness and the nadirs of sorrow—carves the depth of our souls, teaching us that within the crucible of our trials lies the alchemy of our greatest triumphs. Herein lies the paradox of our existence: that it is through the very act of confronting our agony, we discover the boundless realms of our bliss.”
― Jonathan Harnisch, Sex, Drugs, and Schizophrenia

“I wished I could separate him out. Make him two different people. One I could despise with my entire being and one I could support and comfort. If he wasn’t one person, I might have understood him better.”
― Kailey Bright, Unity
