Text Quotes
Evil doesn’t have to be an overt act; it can be merely the absence of good. If you have the ability, the resources, and the opportunity to do good and you do nothing, that can be evil  (Absence Quotes) I think the absence of socks on men wearing suits and brogues is a problem. They’ll live to regret that  (Absence Quotes) Solitude in the city is about the lack of other people or rather their distance beyond a door or wall, but in remote places it isn’t an absence but the presence of something else, a kind of humming silence in which solitude seems as natural to your species as to any other, words strange rocks you may or may not turn over  (Absence Quotes) In architecture, space was a material to be shaped, even created. For these men, the material was silence. Silence like water in which you could drown, the absence of talk as constricting as the absence of air  (Absence Quotes) By the deficiency or absence of one necessary constituent, all the others being present, the soil is rendered barren for all those crops to the life of which that one constituent is indispensable  (Absence Quotes) What starting your company means: you will lose your stable income, your right to apply for a leave of absence, and your right to get a bonus. However, it also means your income will no longer be limited, you will use your time more effectively, and you will no longer need to beg for favours from people anymore  (Absence Quotes) Without dignity, identity is erased. In its absence, men are defined not by themselves, but by their captors and the circumstances in which they are forced to live  (Absence Quotes) In the absence of any written analogue to speech, the sensible, natural environment remains the primary visual counterpart of spoken utterance, the palpable site, or matrix wherein meaning occurs and proliferates. In the absence of writing, we find ourselves situated in the field of discourse as we are embedded in the natural landscape; indeed, the two matrices are not separable. We can no more stabilize the language and render its meanings determinate than we can freeze all motion and metamorphosis within the land  (Absence Quotes) It is the essence of the institutions of liberty that it be recognized that guilt is personal and cannot be attributed to the holding of opinions or to mere intent in the absence of overt acts  (Absence Quotes) Astronomy leads us to a unique event, a universe which was created out of nothing, and delicately balanced to provide exactly the conditions required to support life. In the absence of an absurdly improbable accident, the observations of modern science seem to suggest an underlying, one might say, supernatural plan  (Absence Quotes) The words, gestures, and threats of our officers were thrown away upon men who had lost all presence of mind and only longed for absence of body  (Absence Quotes) I have often wondered how anyone who does not read, by which I mean daily, having some book going all the time, can make it through life. Indeed if I were required to make a sharp division in the very nature of people, I would be tempted to make it there: readers and nonreaders of books... It is astonishing how the presence or absence of this habit so consistently characterizes an individual in other respects; it is as though it were a kind of barometer of temperament, of personality, even of character. Aside from that, for me it constituted something like sanity insurance  (Absence Quotes) Courage is not the absence of fear, it is taking a step forward when you are afraid  (Absence Quotes) What is it that we call loneliness. It can’t simply be the absence of others, you can be alone and not lonely, and you can be among people and yet be lonely. So what is it?  (Absence Quotes) Faith is the acknowledgment of the entire absence of all goodness in us, and the recognition of the cross as the substitute for all the want on our part. Faith saves, because it owns the complete salvation of another, and not because it contributes anything to that salvation  (Absence Quotes) All human desire is poised on an axis of paradox, absence and presence its poles, love and hate its motive energies  (Absence Quotes) Anarchy is all around us. Without it, our world would fall apart. All progress is due to it. All order extends from it. All blessed things that rise above the state of nature are owned to it. The human race thrives only because of the lack of control, not because of it. I’m saying that we need ever more absence of control to make the world a more beautiful place. It is a paradox that we must forever explain  (Absence Quotes) Absolute hospitality would in no way amount to the absence of violence. To the contrary, it would enthrone violence precisely under the guise of nonviolence because it would leave the violators unchanged and the consequences of violence unremedied  (Absence Quotes) Chinese central government doesn’t need to even lead public opinion: it just selectively stops censorship. In other words, just as censorship is a political tool, so is the absence of censorship  (Absence Quotes) For me, synchronicity is a way of confirming the rightness of action. It is only in its absence that I realize I’m out of kilter with, for want of a better term, the collective unconscious  (Absence Quotes) I spent my life folded between the pages of books. In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters  (Absence Quotes) It is his absence that is part of me and has been for years. This is who I am, perhaps who we all are, keepers of the absent and the dead. It is the blessing and burden of being alive  (Absence Quotes) It is exceedingly difficult to maintain a sense of absence without turning that absence into some kind of presence  (Absence Quotes) Let there be an end to the arrogance of the big powers who miss no opportunity to put the rights of the people in question. Africa’s absence from the club of those who have the right to veto is unjust and should be ended  (Absence Quotes) Silence is not the absence of sound. It’s a physical place, a destination with value and meaning in a chaotic world, somewhere arrived at with difficulty and left with regret  (Absence Quotes) Bravery is not the absence of fear. Bravery is the ability to operate effectively even while totally terrified  (Absence Quotes) The strength of your faith is not measured by the absence of doubt, but by the faithfulness of your life in the face of doubt  (Absence Quotes) Science provides tangible evidence of its accuracy and importance. Religion makes excuses for its absence of the same  (Absence Quotes) The presence of many does not and cannot replace the absence of one. That is love  (Absence Quotes) In a field I am the absence of field.That is always the case. Wherever I am, I am what is missing. When I walk I part the air and always the air moves in to fill the space where my body has been. We all have reasons for moving. I move to keep things whole  (Absence Quotes)
