  1. Certainly there is no certainty. The quest for certainty is certainly futile.
    Certes, certainty certainly eludes even the certain. Certainty is curtains.

  2. “I’m certain about this.”

    My father used to say that very often back in the day. I remember sitting in the back seat of the car, a scared child hoping his parents would arrive at some sort of consensus and get along. My mother continued to disagree and argue. She didn’t trust him, and she had no reason to — he typically had no idea what he was doing, even though he thought he did.

  3. Certainly there’s nothing certain about life. We can ascertain this or that but nothing is sure. Certes, the quest for certainty is certainly futile.

  4. I had to be certain. Although I could feel the saliva building behind my lips, the yearning for the taste of his blood, I had to wait. I had to be certain it was him. I refused to take an innocent life, but if I was right, a monster like him the world would be better without. I perched quietly in the tree, my eyes following his every move as he unlocked the trunk of his car. My body tense and my stomach hungry I waited for my evidence. I heard her moan as he pulled her semi lifeless body from the trunk, his eyes full of excitement. That was the proof I needed. She was still alive and I was 100% certain of his intentions. Dinner was served.

  5. I am certain that when we’re lying next to each other, and you’re looking at me and I’m looking at you, that this is what everything was leading up to, all those times of failure or times of success, or times of looking or times of waiting, I am certain that they brought me here, to you, to be holding you, looking at you, and calling you mine.

  6. Matthew was certain that Victor loved him, absolutely so. It was obvious in every caress, in every glance the vampire gave him when he thought he wasn’t looking. Matthew was certain that he loved the other man as well, there was no other word for the warmth that caused his heart to swell every time he saw Victor. The only issue was being able to admit it to each other.

  7. Sicher ist nichts als der Tod. Der ist ganz klar am Ende eines jeden Lebens, bisher ist noch jede(r) gestorben, irgendwann, früher oder später, wach oder schlafend, in Ruhe oder mit viel Krach, und dann war es vorbei. Warum sollte es diesmal anders sein.

  8. I’m certain of little. That used to make me feel insecure, but now I know that the older I get, the less certain I am that anything at all is ever certain, and uncertainty is actually, perhaps, the spice of life.

  9. a certain moment. a certain place. a certain time. i wish i was certain about anything. anything in my life right now. because it’s all up in the air. floating around like tiny particles of dust. and i can’t be certain that anything will happen. not today. not tomorrow. i wish i had certainty. i need it to feel safe and secure. and not

  10. I’m not certain about anything anymore. I used to know everything. Yeah, I was that kid. And I guess in some ways I still am, but mostly… I just don’t know. I just never know. And it’s frustrating. I want to go back to when everything was simple, when I was going to grow up to be a famous writer with an insanely attractive husband who loved nothing else in the world more than he loved me. But now none of that’s certain. Nothing’s certain.

  11. Can the sky really pour down so many droplets of water all at once?
    Can the waves really grow and swallow villages whole?
    Can volcanoes really spit out liquid fire?
    Can humans truly love wholeheartedly?
    Is God really there?
    I’m can’t be certain, but I can believe.

  12. A state i never will feel i have obtained, each decision sacrifices another.Thus how can we be sure we have ever made the right one.

    So then i ask you, what more can you do for yourself?

  13. I was certain when I saw you, I am uncertain now. I am certain you still think of me, I’m uncertain how. Do you think of me the way you did? Could you ever again? I’m not certain.

  14. I was certain that he was leaving, in everything he did everything he said, it seemed inevitable. It wasn’t fair, they’ve all left me behind. It’s not FAIR! He can’t leave! Come back I miss you, I still cry for you all. With his leaving, the last of my free memories where gone. Everything I had been resiliently holding onto, had completely shifted, never to show a similar site.

  15. In life there is no certainty. No one can ever be certain of any decision they make, any act they commit. Sure, they can claim certainty, and maybe a small part of them believes in that and is shining through. But in reality, each decision we make has an air of confusion. There is no black and white in this world, only gray. So when we make decisions, we are not certain… but that should not stop us from trying to do what is right.

  20. He was certain she was staring at him because she found him odd. Most people did. So he continued on with his work, not really paying too much attention to her.
    But then she came over to him and tapped him. “Excuse me?”
    He looked up and blinked. “Yes?”
    “Could I… umm…” She blushed, and to him she looked nervous. “Well, I don’t want to be forward but… could I pet your ears? They’re so cute…”
    He was surprised, and almost laughed. And he had been so certain she would call him a name…

  21. i was certain. and then i was not. and now, i’m mostly certain about some things, and mostly uncertain about other things, and uncertain about whether or not a person can ever really be certain about some things. i do like to feel certain. even though sometimes being certain can be scarry too. usually it feels better than being uncertain. at least with some things. although with outhers, it’s totally comfortable to be uncertain. but maybe that’s because i’m so certain that i’m uncertain about those things, and i’m also certain that it’s oc with me to be uncertain about those things. whao. enough of that. for certain.

  27. I was certain that my parents wouldn’t approve. But I’m also certain that I’m in love with him, so what does it matter what they think? The only thing holding me back is the lack of finances. If I wasn’t so dependent on my parents’ input, I’d disregard all of their concerns and carry on. If I could do it, I’d be on a plane tomorrow.

  29. He said look up at the stars because they’re all you can ever be certain of, and i said what about you?
    He looked at me and smiled and i saw stars in his eyes and i believed he meant those, too.
    He said listen to that music blaring from your speakers because it’s the only truth there is, and i said what about you?
    He looked at me and smiled and i heard music from his lips and i believed he meant that, too.
    And he pulled me in closer and the flannel was soft against my cheek and his scent was warm in my nose and i closed my eyes and imagined all of our tomorrows.
    I said I love you and he said nothing and i said, what about you?

  31. Of few things I am certain. In fact the only thing I am certain about is the constant uncertainty in my mind. Even when asked what happiness is I am uncertain. I should be able to answer such a question.

  32. I am certain there was something I was supposed to write. I am certain it was supposed to be great. I am certain it was supposed to be here but I am certain that I have forgot.

  33. “I’m certain you know exactly what I’m talking about.” She leaned over his desk, the tight-fitting dress offering a choice view. Her eyes were steely behind her shades. “So, I’m going to count to five.” She drew the gun gracefully from its holster on her thigh.
    “One.”
    The gun was cold against his forehead. He stared her down, unwavering.
    “Two.”
    She smiled.
    “Five.”

  34. how certain are you that the world won’t end in 2012?
    certain enough that you are willing to spend 2011 working for money?

    maybe it won’t end in 2012, but who’s to say you won’t?

  36. She supposed it was because she and Avah had always been together, and Aly had felt certain that nothing would change that. But now, she was proven wrong.
