Text Quotes
The beauty was in the waking of the powerless. Is it always to be true that it is impossible to have things strong and at the same time beautiful? The famished men need not stay famished. But to gorge themselves in this heartbreaking way consuming, utterly destroying the common promise of their greed, was that ever necessary?  (Consuming Quotes) No man complains of his neighbor for ill management of his affairs, for an error in sowing his land, or marrying his daughter, for consuming his substance in taverns... in all these he has liberty; but if he does not frequent the church, or then conform in ceremonies, there is an immediate uproar  (Consuming Quotes) A garden has a curious innocent way of consuming cash while all the time you are under the illusion that you are spending nothing  (Consuming Quotes) Consumerism is, quite precisely, the consuming of life by the things consumed. It is living in a manner that is measured by having rather than being... and consumerism is hardly the sin of the rich. The poor, driven by discontent and envy, may be as consumed by what they do not have as the rich are consumed by what they do have. The question is not, certainly not most importantly, a question about economics. It is first and foremost a cultural and moral problem requiring a cultural and moral remedy  (Consuming Quotes) We must surely appear to the world as exactly what we are: a nation that organizes its economy around consuming twice as much oil as it produces, and around the profligate wastefulness of the wars and campaigns required to defend such consumption. In recent years we have defined our national interest largely in terms of the oil fields and pipelines we need to procure fuel  (Consuming Quotes) We are consuming our forests three times faster than they are being reproduced. Some of the richest timber lands of this continent have already been destroyed, and not replaced, and other vast areas are on the verge of destruction. Yet forests, unlike mines, can be so handled as to yield the best results of use, without exhaustion, just like grain fields  (Consuming Quotes) Love to throw yourself on the earth and kiss it. Kiss the earth and love it with an unceasing, consuming love  (Consuming Quotes) You can’t really call yourself an environmentalist if you’re still consuming animals. You just can’t  (Consuming Quotes) An artist may sustain a body of work as an ecosystem, in which every part is used to every advantage, not consuming any part without regenerating it  (Consuming Quotes) As opposed to living the rich life and consuming as much as possible, people have to take a step back. Instead of buying the biggest diamond or having 18 cars, do other things. Buying the biggest thing is outdated and there is no excuse for it  (Consuming Quotes) A hobby is, of course, an abomination, as are all consuming interests and passions that do not lead directly to large, personal gain  (Consuming Quotes) It is the rare architect who does not hope in his heart to design a great building and for whom the quest is not a quiet, consuming passion  (Consuming Quotes) Embellishment is an irresistible and consuming impulse, going back to the beginnings of human history.... Probably the strongest motivating force is the simplest: the inability of almost everyone to ever leave well enough alone  (Consuming Quotes) Burn with that consuming fire of objectivity that forces a man to renew efforts that are doomed to failure  (Consuming Quotes) We are reducing the number of relationships. We are slowly but surely consuming the massive reserves of energy that have been accumulating and are stored in the ecosystems  (Consuming Quotes) Pride is bad, stress is good. I don’t want to feel confident. I want to feel rage. Endless, all consuming rage  (Consuming Quotes) If you do not know where the mushroom products you are consuming are grown, think twice before eating them  (Consuming Quotes) A wheat belly represents the accumulation of fat that results from years of consuming foods that trigger insulin, the hormone of fat storage  (Consuming Quotes) They who pray with faith have fervour and fervour is the fire of prayer. This mysterious fire has the power of consuming all our faults and imperfections, and of giving to our actions, vitality, beauty and merit  (Consuming Quotes) The bourgeois prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to the deathly inner consuming fire  (Consuming Quotes) The happy people are those who are producing something; the bored people are those who are consuming much and producing nothing  (Consuming Quotes) We are so conformist; nobody is thinking. We are all sucking up stuff; we have been trained to be consumers, and we are all consuming far too much  (Consuming Quotes) It was the last that remained of a past whose annihilation had not taken place because it was still in a process of annihilation, consuming itself from within, ending at every moment but never ending its ending  (Consuming Quotes) It’s just that none of us had the wit or talent to make them into songs. We made them into life, which much messier, and more time consuming, and leaves nothing for anybody to whistle  (Consuming Quotes) Left alone, human beings are a plague. They multiply relentlessly, consuming every resource, destroying everything they touch  (Consuming Quotes) I couldn’t escape him, now or ever. He’d always be there, consuming my every thought, my heart locked in his hands. I was drawn to him by forces I couldn’t control, let alone escape  (Consuming Quotes) Being vegetarian here also means that we do not consume dairy and egg products, because they are products of the meat industry. If we stop consuming, they will stop producing. Only collective awakening can create enough determination for action  (Consuming Quotes) Fear is an aid to the warrior. It is a small fire burning. It heats the muscles, making us stronger. Panic comes when the fire is out of control, consuming all courage and pride  (Consuming Quotes) As we all know from witnessing the consuming jealousy of husbands who are never faithful, people do not confine themselves to the emotions to which they are entitled  (Consuming Quotes) If we were truly in the studio making a record, it would have been more time consuming, and certainly I would have been more involved in the writing process  (Consuming Quotes)
