Then I felt too that I might take this opportunity to tie up a few loose ends, only of course loose ends can never be properly tied, one is always producing new ones. Time, like the sea, unties all knots. Judgements on people are never final, they emerge from summings up which at once suggest the need of a reconsideration. Human arrangements are nothing but loose ends and hazy reckoning, whatever art may otherwise pretend in order to console us.

Iris Murdoch

I think if your goal is for everything to be okay, that's a mistake. To achieve that goal, the only obstacle you'd have to face tomorrow is to eliminate all risk ... I've made the decision that I'm never trying to make everything okay. I'm trying for there to be more loose ends, not fewer loose ends.

Seth Godin

I find most American films annoy me because their third act tends to be tying up loose ends and returning to moral values and killing the monster. I think most of the scripts I read to tend to go in that direction and I find that very, very unsatisfying. I want the stories to have loose ends and to pose some questions - or even say things that aren't too comfortable.

David MacKenzie

Life's not perfect. Some loose ends may never get trimmed up and tidied.

Hoda Kotb

I always used to associate good directors as being ones who are totally extreme and have an answer for everything and there are no loose ends.

Chris Lowell

Life doesn't have plots and subplots and denouements. It's just a big collection of loose ends and dangling threads that never get explained.

Grant Morrison

I've always thought that a lot of really good writers go wrong by getting so into the craft and the technique and perfection. Perfection can be the enemy sometimes. Some songs don't need to be told perfectly. Life is messy and has loose ends, and sometimes I think the songs should reflect that.

Patterson Hood

My studio work is a central part of my life and I'd be at loose ends without it. When I'm not in my studio, I don't stop thinking about painting.

Stephen Beal

The FBI is not in the habit of leaving loose ends. That's not what they do.

Asha Rangappa

It is the loose ends with which men hang themselves.

Zelda Fitzgerald

The past is a work of art, free of irrelevancies and loose ends.

Max Beerbohm

Let the human mind loose. It must be loose. It will be loose. Superstition and dogmatism cannot confine it.

John Adams

Life is not a PG feel-good movie. Real life often ends badly.

Matthew Quick

I just try to make plays when needed and pick up the loose ends.

Trevor Ariza

I keep things pretty loose. I'm always attracted to the artists that have a, like a really loose, kind of, human style, you know, you can see, you can tell there's, there's a humanity in there.

Noah Van Sciver

Happy Endings are an illusion. Real life is filled with brief moments of fleeting happiness, but ultimately every life is a tragedy that ends in death and grief.
