Living Quotes

Magic is not a practice. It is a living, breathing web of energy that, with our permission, can encase our every action Picture Quote #1

Prayer is an end to isolation. It is living our daily life with someone; with him who alone can deliver us from solitude Picture Quote #1

Know for a certainty that if men understood how terrible is even one solitary sin, they would rather be cast into a heated furnace, and there remain, living both in soul and body, than to support such a sight. And if the sea were all fire they would cast themselves therein and never leave it, if they were certain of meeting the sin on doing so Picture Quote #1

Increased knowledge of heredity means increased power of control over the living thing, and as we come to understand more and more the architecture of the plant or animal we realize what can and what cannot be done towards modification or improvement Picture Quote #1

Disease is not something personal and special, but only a manifestation of life under modified conditions, operating according to the same laws as apply to the living body at all times, from the first moment until death Picture Quote #1

The cell, this elementary keystone of living nature, is far from being a peculiar chemical giant molecule or even a living protein and as such is not likely to fall prey to the field of an advanced chemistry. The cell is itself an organism, constituted of many small units of life Picture Quote #1

There is no force inherent in living matter, no vital force independent of and differing from the cosmic forces; the energy which living matter gives off is counterbalanced by the energy which it receives Picture Quote #1

Only dead mathematics can be taught where the attitude of competition prevails: living mathematics must always be a communal possession Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I’m afraid that my daughter might think that I get my hair done for a living Picture Quote #1

There is no difference between the pain of humans and the pain of other living beings, since the love and tenderness of the mother for the young are not produced by reasoning, but by feeling, and this faculty exists not only in humans but in most living beings Picture Quote #1

The soul is a breath of living spirit, that with excellent sensitivity, permeates the entire body to give it life. Just so, the breath of the air makes the earth fruitful. Thus the air is the soul of the earth, moistening it, greening it Picture Quote #1

The probability for the chance of formation of the smallest, simplest form of living organism known is 1 to 10340,000,000... The size of this figure is truly staggering, since there are only supposed to be approximately 10 electrons in the whole universe! Picture Quote #1

It’s a privilege to play music fora living. Even more, it’s a privilege to have an audience. Respect that Picture Quote #1

This planet is an exquisitely arranged and interconnected system. What’s controlled in one place is going to have consequences in another place. Our job as gardeners is to try and figure this out no matter how small our allotted space might be. Discipline has to be the watchword for our controlling hands. It means not gardening without thinking of the garden as a habitat: for mice, for squirrels, for bees and wasps. For other living creatures beyond ourselves Picture Quote #1

Today I am amazed at the things our children have done and their wide range of interests. They are all living their lives and not the ones I would have planned for them. But I have learned that their lives are theirs, not mine, and in living their own lives they have given me experiences and an education I would never have had if I’d been fool enough to make them do what I thought they should do Picture Quote #1

Honey, we all got to go sometime, reason or no reason. Dying’s as natural as living. The man who’s too afraid to die is too afraid to live Picture Quote #1

I’m a country boy who hasn’t really been exposed to city living, and it throws me Picture Quote #1

There would be no chance at all of getting to know death if it happened only once. But fortunately, life is nothing but a continuing dance of birth and death, a dance of change. Every time I hear the rush of a mountain stream, or the waves crashing on the shore, or my own heartbeat, I hear the sound of impermanence. These changes, these small deaths, are our living links with death. They are death’s pulses, death’s heartbeat, prompting us to let go of all the things we cling to Picture Quote #1

Let the smokers and the gluttons die... and leave the living to us who know how to use it Picture Quote #1

I like living in the 20th century... to me the world has never been more beautiful. I am trying to paint the real world I live in, as beautifully as I can with my own eyes Picture Quote #1

Wisdom can see the red, the rose, the stained and sculptured curve of grey, the charcoal scars of fire, and see around that living tower of tree the hermit tatters of old bark split down and strip to end the season; and can be quiet and not look for reasons past the edge of reason Picture Quote #1

A man can be so busy making a living that he forgets to make a life Picture Quote #1

Boredom is your mind and body’s way of telling you you’re not living up to your potential Picture Quote #1

She sat down in a weed patch, her elbows on her knees, and kept her eyes on the small sterious world of the ground. In the shade and sun of grass blade forests, small living things had their metropolis Picture Quote #1

You need a plan for everything, whether it’s building a cathedral or a chicken coop. Without a plan, you’ll postpone living until you’re dead Picture Quote #1

This fact was something I also learned from this first novel that I needed personal experience to invent, to fantasize, to create fiction, but at the same time I needed some distance, some perspective on this experience in order to feel free enough to manipulate it and to transform it into fiction. If the experience is very close, I feel inhibited. I have never been able to write fiction about something that has happened to me recently. If the closeness of the real reality, of living reality, is to have a persuasive effect on my imagination, I need a distance, a distance in time and in space Picture Quote #1

If you believe you can make a living as a writer, you already have enough ego Picture Quote #1

I’ve always just wanted to earn my living by writing. The best thing is to go into my study in the morning and put words together Picture Quote #1

Imaginative writing has always been a solitary and indeed a somewhat antisocial activity. Apprenticeship existed, no doubt, but it was an apprenticeship to books and not to living masters of the craft Picture Quote #1

I’m glad folks think I look different, I’m living a different, happy, more fulfilling life, and I’m thrilled that perhaps it shows Picture Quote #1
