Beam Quotes

I will tell you: he beat me grievously, in the shape of a woman; for in the shape of a man, master Brook, I fear not Goliath with a weaver's beam, because I know also life is a shuttle Picture Quote #1

Your learning, like the lunar beam, affords Light, but not heat; it leaves you undevout, frozen at heart, while speculation shines Picture Quote #1

I could see jabs from his flashlight cutting into the woods on either side of me. He was back there, somewhere. The light beam was like a knife and I didn't want it on my back Picture Quote #1

I stroke the beam of my lamp slowly along the flank of something more permanent than fish or weed Picture Quote #1

Nothing is to me more distasteful than that entire complacency and satisfaction which beam in the countenances of a new-married couple, - in that of the lady particularly; it tells you that her lot is disposed of in this world; that you can have no hopes of her Picture Quote #1

There is absolutely no such thing as reading but by a candle. We have tried the affectation of a book at noon-day in gardens, and in sultry arbours, but it was labor thrown away. Those gay motes in the beam come about you, hovering and teasing, like so many coquets, that will have you all to their self, and are jealous of your abstractions. By the midnight taper, the writers digests his meditations. By the same light we must approach to their perusal, if we would catch the flame, the odour Picture Quote #1

$Who knows how many artists fail because the light that shines through them is defracted in a thousand directions and not concentrated in a single beam? Picture Quote #1$

The part of the philanthropist is indeed a dangerous one; and the man who would do his neighbour good must first study how not to do him evil, and must begin by pulling the beam out of his own eye Picture Quote #1

I cannot cause light; the most I can do is try to put myself in the path of its beam Picture Quote #1

Dreams are the bright creatures of poem and legend, who sport on earth in the night season, and melt away in the first beam of the sun, which lights grim care and stern reality on their daily pilgrimage through the world Picture Quote #1

I had long ago discovered that when a word or formula refused to come to mind the best thing for it was to think of something else: tigers for instance or oatmeal. Then when the fugitive word was least expecting it I would suddenly turn the full blaze of my attention back onto it catching the culprit in the beam of my mental torch before it could sneak off again into the darkness Picture Quote #1

If you’re a baby about the media, as I was, you can’t imagine what it’s like when the great approval machine shines its beam on you, when every time you cross the street someone comes out of a manhole to talk about your haircut Picture Quote #1

It is not true that a man’s intellectual power is, like the strength of a timber beam, to be measured by its weakest point Picture Quote #1

Wit is something more than a gymnastic trick of the intellect; true wit implies a beam of thought into the essence of a question, a flash that lights up a situation. Wit suggests the delicate but delightful play of a rapier in the hands of a master Picture Quote #1

If every child might live the life predestined in a mother’s heart, all the way from the cradle to the coffin, he would walk upon a beam of light, and shine in glory Picture Quote #1

Art flies around truth, but with the definite intention of not getting burnt. Its capacity lies in finding in the dark void a place where the beam of light can be intensely caught, without this having been perceptible before Picture Quote #1

Jump off the beam, flip off the bars follows your dreams, and reach for the stars Picture Quote #1

The sufferings of neurosis and psychosis are for us a schooling in the passions of the soul, just as the beam of the psychoanalytic scales, when we calculate the tilt of its threat to entire communities, provides us with an indication of the deadening of the passions in society Picture Quote #1

Nothing is going to change. I’m going to wear my hair like this during beam and bar finals. You might as well stop talking about it Picture Quote #1

We are like sailors who on the open sea must reconstruct their ship but are never able to start afresh from the bottom. Where a beam is taken away a new one must at once be put there, and for this the rest of the ship is used as support. In this way, by using the old beams and driftwood the ship can be shaped entirely anew, but only by gradual reconstruction Picture Quote #1

Move like a beam of light: fly like lightning, strike like thunder, whirl in circles around a stable center Picture Quote #1

The abstractionist and the materialist thus mutually exasperating each other, and the scoffer expressing the worst of materialism, there arises a third party to occupy the middle ground between these two, the skeptic, namely. He finds both wrong by being in extremes. He labors to plant his feet, to be the beam of the balance Picture Quote #1

And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Picture Quote #1

Fantasy is, at its best, the purest access to storytelling that we have. It universalizes a tale, it evokes wonder and timeless narrative power, it touches upon inner journeys, it illuminates our collective and individual pasts, throws a focus beam on the present day, and presages the dangers and promises of the future Picture Quote #1
