Closed Quotes

I was curious as to why a million Americans weren’t lining the beaches in boats and with buckets to preserve the life sustaining resource that is the Gulf of Mexico. Personally, as a surfer, I was most sorry for my fellow watermen. Seeing beaches closed due to contamination just broke my heart. If that ever happened in San Diego I’m afraid I might be forced to move Picture Quote #1

I run a design studio in New York. Every seven years, I close it for one year to pursue some little experiments, things that are always difficult to accomplish during the regular working year. In that year, we are not available for any of our clients. We are totally closed. And as you can imagine, it is a lovely and very energetic time Picture Quote #1

There’s no platform for an unsigned music scene in the main cities - it’s all hyped acts or showcases behind closed doors. I read about artists that are doing it ‘the old-fashioned way’ and touring, as if that’s a unique thing to do - well, that should just be the way it is Picture Quote #1

On my Instagram, I’m always keeping a record of things being pulled down in Soho and shutters being closed. Every city - and London more than anywhere - has got to be a vibrant mix of all different things. We can’t allow it to become a monoculture Picture Quote #1

I grew up in an area of a lot of growth, in Orange County, California, and spent most of my youth on the beach. I had witnessed the degradation of our Back Bay and the increased number of closed beach days over the years Picture Quote #1

We need games like ‘A Closed World’ for many reasons.

Immediately after 11 September, the U.S. closed down the Somali charitable network Al-Barakaat on grounds that it was financing terror. This achievement was hailed one of the great successes of the ‘war on terror.’ In contrast, Washington’s withdrawal of its charges as without merit a year later aroused little notice Picture Quote #1

You never know the hurt others endure in this world behind the closed windows of their life, or the joy a simple act of kindness can bring Picture Quote #1

We will only keep people from fleeing the countryside into urban favelas, villas miseries, shantytowns and squatter villages when the productivity gap is closed between what brute labor on the soil can accomplish and what advanced technology makes possible today - and will make possible tomorrow Picture Quote #1

I’ve been advised not to have any more children for medical reasons, so that’s it - the shop has closed, even though I would have loved a daughter Picture Quote #1

Sports and entertainment have always been windows of opportunity for African Americans, when other doors were closed Picture Quote #1

How swiftly the strained honey of afternoon light flows into darknessand the closed bud shrugs off its special mystery in order to break into blossom:as if what exists, exists so that it can be lost and become precious Picture Quote #1

When the wind blows through a wood, its mass is cut and closed by every leaf, forming a train of jittery vortices in the air Picture Quote #1

I always thought when I hit 50 years old that’d be it for the travel. I don’t have to tell you - you wait at an airport, your flight’s delayed, get on a 14-hour flight, get off, get stuck in traffic, you get to the hotel and the room service is closed Picture Quote #1

For too long we have been taking, and the Earth has been giving. But that free-for-all, that all-you-can-eat buffet, it’s over. The salad bar is closed Picture Quote #1

No one behind, no one ahead. The path the ancients cleared has closed. And the other path, everyone’s path, easy and wide, goes nowhere. I am alone and find my way Picture Quote #1

In late 2003, the Bush administration reversed a long-standing policy requiring agents to destroy their files on innocent American citizens, companies and residents when investigations closed Picture Quote #1

The alternative to pain may be worse. When you live with an open heart, you will inevitably get hurt. The alternative of living a life closed off from experience, however, is barren. Ironically, it also still involves suffering. In fearing pain, we already feel the pain from our fear Picture Quote #1

I spend my afternoons painting and working on my Open Hearts jewelry line for Kay Jewelers. I designed an image of a heart that isn’t completely closed. My mom always told me to live with an open heart - when life gets tough, you should go out and help someone else Picture Quote #1

Maybe you’re reason why all the doors are closed, so you can open one that leads you to the perfect road Picture Quote #1
