Quotes For Being Human Novels & Stories

No one should be able to achieve what I haven’t accomplished. ‘Humans are inherently selfish, and so am I. Don’t blame me…’

Will business she speak? No! I talk emotion. Human is an emotional being with emotional need. This has been long forgotten. The car makes you rich. Your right emotions aren’t valued. You are weak. You are ill. Do not invite trouble by even asking an inch. Trees are dead. Long live tall buildings. We are on the verge of commotion, where no one will listen to each. The doctor says speak little to me. It's an earning hour, not a complaining booth or similar any.

At this point, Alex turned his head again at his side to look at Shantal. "Sometimes, I look at myself and I look at you and I think we don’t look too different so why were you born human and I was not? I feel chills when you leave the window open but I never feel cold. I feel bad, really bad when one yells at me, but I am not scared of them or ‘nervous’ the next time I see them. I just want the people around me to be happy and I want to be happy too. Being happy is the only thing I really…understand about being human. Is that sad?”

“Nobody knows what life’s gonna throw at them, and no one really gets to steer their fate all the way.” He took a drag from his cigarette, exhaled slowly, his voice dry as dust. “But being human means you get a choice. You’ve got a brain. If someone can’t keep even half a grip on their emotions and just lets it all spiral—what’s the point? Hurting yourself and dragging others down with you? No matter how sad their story is, that kind of person doesn’t deserve sympathy.” “I actually agree with that,” Bruce said, walking over and handing me my phone after finishing up some texts.

Oh God. I clenched my hand when somebody talked to me, “Wow. Was that how strong your relation was?” I turned my face to look at Roxy, “Can’t believe all it took was two lines from me to get you so insecure you ran away without hearing him out.” She scoffed at me, “This is why humans are untrustworthy. All you think about is yourself.” There it was again. Humans… She used the word like she wasn’t one. Come to think of it. She’s not the only one. Ruda, Yohan and Quincy. All of them have used it like that.

Alyssa said " Scared? Of what?? " Luther teased " Are you kidding?? Am sure am the only human here " She said and Luther scoffed " No one is going to hurt you Alyssa,,how many times do I have to tell you that?? " Luther groaned " Are you sure ??" She asked " I don't lie,, am not human " Luther said " You mean,,humans always lie??" " Let's start from you " Luther said and she chuckled " Am sorry if I lied to you " She said

Sebastian follows suit. “You can never be too old to play. Just like in love. You can never be too old to fall in love. The world just wouldn't agree on that because they always oppose things that make one happy. That's what makes the world a crazy place to live in. It's not the world itself that's toxic, it's the residents. The same residents that call themselves human, yet they do not act humane at all,” he quotes, something I believe is abnormal for a physically beautiful man like him because I have always believed that handsome men are basically arrogants. A smart word from a smart guy.

At one point, Emily stood and paced, and I watched her silhouette slice through my kitchen light. “I’m afraid of being weak,” she confessed. “I’m afraid that if I let myself want this, I’ll be a joke. I’ll be the person who ruins everything because she can’t be good enough.” “You’re not weak,” I told her. “You’re human. The two aren’t the same and if anything, letting yourself be human is the bravest part, admitting that you want something messy and maybe wonderful.”

He asks warmly, an affectionate twinkle in his eye. “Oh, don’t say that. I’m so tired of getting credit for things that just so happened to occur in my general vicinity.” I complain, slumping back and rubbing my full belly. “Not that I don’t appreciate the compliments… I just… perfection is an impossible thing to live up to… and I am so far from perfect it’s laughable. I don’t want to end up with a reputation that I’m destined to fall short of – I’m only human after all.” A moment after the words leave my mouth, I realize they aren’t true. “I mean, not human, but I’m just a person like everyone else.”

"You, a mere human, against creatures far more powerful than you?" Undeterred, I held my ground, meeting her gaze with unwavering determination. "I may be human, but I possess a strength that surpasses the boundaries of mere physicality," I replied, my voice infused with a quiet confidence. "I have witnessed the resilience of the human spirit, the unwavering courage that resides within us. And it is that spirit that fuels my resolve to stand against any foe, no matter how formidable." I said, the words pouring out of my mouth.
