Text Quotes
My teeth have never been touched. Why did I tell you that? Knock on wood. I’ve got a few scars over the eyes, a couple on the chin, a few on the beak and one across the cheek. But my luck is running out  (Wood Quotes) We prefer synthetic rather than natural materials. Natural products are almost too valuable. Wood is much harder to produce than metal. And metal is recyclable, while wood isn’t  (Wood Quotes) I just prefer wood. I like the smell. To me, it’s a lot cheaper than electric or gas, and it’s more convenient. It’s just a better heat to me  (Wood Quotes) I have always striven to fix beauty in wood, stone, glass or pottery, in oil or watercolor by using whatever seemed fittest for the expression of beauty, that has been my creed  (Wood Quotes) You know, for most of its life bluegrass has had this stigma of being all straw hats and hay bales and not necessarily the most sophisticated form of music. Yet you can’t help responding to its honesty. It’s music that finds its way deep into your soul because it’s strings vibrating against wood and nothing else  (Wood Quotes) You find yourself in the world, without any power, immovable as a rock, stupid, so to speak, as a log of wood  (Wood Quotes) The rat stops gnawing in the wood, the dungeon walls withdraw, the weight is lifted your pulse steadies and the sun has found your heart, the day was not bad, the season has not been bad, there is sense and even promise in going on  (Wood Quotes) You are axes, in a world of wood. And the wood remembers when it has been cut, even if the axe forgets  (Wood Quotes) The mind I love must have wild places, a tangled orchard where dark damsons drop in the heavy grass, an overgrown little wood, the chance of a snake or two, a pool that nobody’s fathomed the depth of, and paths threaded with flowers planted by the mind  (Wood Quotes) Don’t drag the engine, like an ignoramus, but bring wood and water and flame, like an engineer  (Wood Quotes) It is surely a matter of common observation that a man who knows no one thing intimately has no views worth hearing on things in general. The farmer philosophizes in terms of crops, soils, markets, and implements, the mechanic generalizes his experiences of wood and iron, the seaman reaches similar conclusions by his own special road; and if the scholar keeps pace with these it must be by an equally virile productivity  (Wood Quotes) The dragonets found the carpenters to be even more fascinating than the furniture, and followed the poor men from pen to pen, crowding around to watch, tasting the wooden planks, trying to steal the tools. It made for an interesting day for everyone, as the boys tried to keep the dragonets away from the carpenters, and the dragonets tried to get at the carpenters, and the carpenters worked probably a great deal faster than they ever had in their lives, sure that the dragonets would go from tasting the wood to tasting them  (Wood Quotes) Nothing can happen more than once, but everything must happen one day; Over hill and dale, wood and stream, my dying voice will blow away  (Wood Quotes) There are a million things one might do with a block of wood. But what do you think might happen if someone, just once, believed in it?  (Wood Quotes) There seemed to be no end to this wood, and no beginning, and no difference in it, and, worse of all, no way out  (Wood Quotes) For as long as the world spins and the earth is green with new wood, she will lie in this box and not in my arms  (Wood Quotes) Vlad made a mental note to amend the friend code: thou shalt not date the girl that thy best friend has a crush on... nor shalt thou try sticking thy best friend in the chest with a sharp hunk of wood  (Wood Quotes) Sometimes friends do foolish things. My father told me that true friends are like gold coins. Ships are wrecked by storms and lie for hundreds of years on the ocean floor. Worms destroy the wood. Iron corrodes. Silver turns black but gold doesn’t change in sea water. It loses none of its brilliance or colour. It comes up the same. It survives shipwrecks and time  (Wood Quotes) The dark is generous, and it is patient, and it always wins. It always wins because it is everywhere. It is in the wood that burns in your hearth, and in the kettle on the fire; it is under your chair and under your table and under the sheets on your bed. Walk in the midday sun, and the dark is with you, attached to the soles of your feet. The brightest light casts the darkest shadow  (Wood Quotes) He threw his burning cigarette onto our clean living room floor and ground it into the wood with his boot. We were about to become cigarettes  (Wood Quotes) Everything that is dead quivers. Not only the things of poetry, stars, moon, wood, flowers, but even a white trouser button glittering out of a puddle in the street... Everything has a secret soul, which is silent more often than it speaks  (Wood Quotes) I found myself grinning until my cheeks hurt, my scalp prickling till I thought it might lift off my head. My tongue ran away from me, giddy with freedom. This, and this, and this, I said to him. I did not have to fear that I spoke too much. I did not have to worry that I was too slender, or too slow. This and this and this! I taught him how to skip stones, and he taught me how to carve wood. I could feel every nerve in my body, every brush of air against my skin  (Wood Quotes) When you draw, you copy the world don’t you? You remake it on paper, but it isn’t the same. It’s yours. No one else could have created it just like that. When I make poems, I use the words we all use, but the order and the sound create a new power. This wood is someone’s creation. We stumble through it’s tendrils, as if we’re crawling through the synapses of his mind  (Wood Quotes) And as the ax bites into the wood, be comforted in the fact that the ache in your heart and the confusion in your soul means that you are still alive, still human, and still open to the beauty of the world, even though you have done nothing to deserve it  (Wood Quotes) Surely, I thought, a few bushes and some dilapidated wood couldn’t stop someone’s best and brightest blessing! Surely not!  (Wood Quotes) He who owns a wood of proper land in this country, and, in the face of all the personal riches of the day, only raises crabs and choke pears, deserves to lose the respect of all sensible men  (Wood Quotes) Fortunate are the nations that can build wooden houses. Because wood breathes, transforms, deteriorates, like us. It is also important to have flowers and plants where we live, because they breathe, too. Contemplating a flower for three seconds can be a captivating solitary journey back to original geometry, which is always revitalizing  (Wood Quotes) The means for maintaining perfect love is to accomplish frequent acts of love. Fire is kindled by the wood we cast into it and love is enkindled by acts of love  (Wood Quotes) The essence of knowledge is generalization. That fire can be produced by rubbing wood in a certain way is a knowledge derived by generalization from individual experiences; the statement means that rubbing wood in this way will always produce fire. The art of discovery is therefore the art of correct generalization... The separation of relevant from irrelevant factors is the beginning of knowledge  (Wood Quotes) Meditation is like a single log of wood. Insight and investigation are one end of the log; calm and concentration are the other end. If you lift up the whole log, both sides come up at once. Which is concentration and which is insight? Just this mind  (Wood Quotes)
