Grafted Quotes

In persons grafted in a serious trust, negligence is a crime Picture Quote #1

You cannot eat apples planted from seeds. They must be grafted, cloned Picture Quote #1

No art can be grafted with success on another art. For though they all profess the same origin, and to proceed from the same stock, yet each has its own peculiar modes both of imitating nature and of deviating from it... The deviation, more especially, will not bear transplantation to another soil Picture Quote #1

Medicare is a monopoly: a central-planning bureaucracy grafted onto American health care. It exercises a stranglehold on the health care of all Americans over 65, and on the medical practices of almost all physicians. Medicare decides what is legitimate and what is not: which prices may be charged and which services may be rendered Picture Quote #1

Lionel Essrog, the twitching, barking, gabbling narrator of Jonathan Lethem’s new novel, ‘Motherless Brooklyn,’ is no movie-of-the-week novelty grafted onto a noir mystery. Maybe his Tourette’s is a gimmick, but it’s a gimmick with depth, with soul Picture Quote #1

Wherefore being all of one mind, we do highly resolve that government of the grafted by the grafter for the grafter shall not perish from the earth Picture Quote #1

The era of wild apples will soon be over. I wander through old orchards of great extent, now all gone to decay, all of native fruit which for the most part went to the cider mill. But since the temperance reform and the general introduction of grafted fruit, no wild apples, such as I see everywhere in deserted pastures, and where the woods have grown up among them, are set out. I fear that he who walks over these hills a century hence will not know the pleasure of knocking off wild apples Picture Quote #1

Love is only a feeling of curiousity more or less intense, grafted upon the inclination placed in us by nature that the species may be preserved Picture Quote #1

Religion must always be a crab fruit; it cannot be grafted, and keep its wild beauty Picture Quote #1

It is essential that we realize once and for all that man is much more of a sex creature than a moral creature. The former is inherent, the other is grafted on Picture Quote #1

Situation comedy on television has thrived for years on canned laughter grafted to gag lines by technicians using records of guffawing audiences that have been dead for years Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I can be walking down the street, or riding a bus, and suddenly I see somebody who remind me of somebody I know back home, and I close my eyes and find myself thinking of the sea, or the taste of grafted mango, or the smell of saltfish frying, and then I come back to myself and open my eyes and realise where I am Picture Quote #1

A mediocre man copying nature will never produce a work of art, because he really looks without seeing, and though he may have noted each detail minutely, the result will be flat and without character... the artist on the contrary, sees; that is to say, his eye, grafted on his heart, reads deeply into the bosom of nature Picture Quote #1

Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance Picture Quote #1

Do you ever get the feeling like you already know the entire contents of the universe somewhere inside of your head, as if you were born with a complete map of this world already grafted onto the folds of your cerebellum and you are just spending your entire life figuring out how to access this map? Picture Quote #1

Greatness, generally speaking, is an unusual quantity of a usual quality grafted upon a common man Picture Quote #1

We owned what we learned back there; the experience and the growth are grafted into our lives Picture Quote #1

The respect for human rights, essential if we are to use technology wisely, is not something alien that must be grafted onto science. On the contrary, it is integral to science, as also to scholarship in general Picture Quote #1

Jews have God's promise and if we Christians have it, too, then it is only as those chosen with them, as guests in their house, that we are new wood grafted onto their tree Picture Quote #1

The passions grafted on wounded pride are the most inveterate; they are green and vigorous in old age Picture Quote #1
