Text Quotes
If you do not receive Christ as the Lamb who saves and delivers, you will face Him as the Lion who stalks and devours.  (Devours Quotes) Yes, I am well aware that nature - or what we call nature: that totality of objects and processes that surrounds us and that alternately creates us and devours us - is neither our accomplice nor our confidant.  (Devours Quotes) Death devours all lovely things; Lesbia with her sparrow Shares the darkness--presently Every bed is narrow.  (Devours Quotes) Saying of the ProphetEnvyEnvy devours good deeds, as a fire devours fuel  (Devours Quotes) Anger devours almost all other good emotions. It deadens the soul. It numbs the heart to joy and gratitude and hope and tenderness and compassion and kindness.  (Devours Quotes) Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire  (Devours Quotes) If only I could master that demon of procrastination that goes about like a roaring lion and devours all my good intentions, I should become the most punctual man in the world  (Devours Quotes) He that is proud eats up himself. Pride is his own glass, his own trumpet, his own chronicle; and whatever praises itself but in the deed, devours the deed in the praise  (Devours Quotes) Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor  (Devours Quotes) Obscenity, which is ever blasphemy against the divine beauty in life, is a monster for which the corruption of society forever brings forth new food, which it devours in secret  (Devours Quotes) Some people lose all respect for the lion unless he devours them instantly. There is no pleasing some people  (Devours Quotes) Man is head, chest and stomach. Each of these animals operates, more often than not, individually. I eat, I feel, I even, although rarely, think. This jungle crawls and teems, is hungry, roars, gets angry, devours itself, and its cacophonic concert does not even stop when you are asleep  (Devours Quotes) It seems to me the worst of all the plagues is the slug, the snail without a shell. He is beyond description repulsive, a mass of sooty, shapeless slime, and he devours everything  (Devours Quotes) The mystery lies in the here and now. The mystery is: What is one to do with oneself? As you get older you begin to realize the trick time is playing, and that unless you do something about it, the passage of time is nothing but the encroachment of the horrible banality of the past on the pure future. The past devours the future like a tape recorder, converting pure possibility into banality. The present is the tape head, the mouth of time. Then where is the mystery and why bother kicking through the ashes? Because there is a clue in the past  (Devours Quotes) There aren’t any looks or customs I wish would come back. Today almost anything goes. Culture constantly devours the past so there’s not much that’s missing  (Devours Quotes) Hatred is a parasite that devours all. One doesn’t build upon hatred, but upon love  (Devours Quotes) Decide to forgive: For resentment is negative; resentment is poisoning; resentment diminishes and devours the self  (Devours Quotes) I was not made for the great light that devours, a dim lamp was all I had been given, and patience without end, to shine it on the empty shadows. I was a solid in the midst of other solids  (Devours Quotes) The deeps are cold: In that darkness camaraderie does not hold: Nothing touches but, clutching, devours  (Devours Quotes) Love is that burning fire which devours everything and shall never, never cease in all the endless ages to come  (Devours Quotes) There are two infinities that confuse me: the one in my soul devours me; the one around me will crush me  (Devours Quotes) I am a house gutted by fire where only the guilty sometimes sleep before the punishment that devours them hounds them out in the open  (Devours Quotes) Shadow is ever besieged, for that is its nature. Whilst darkness devours, and light steals. And so one sees shadow ever retreat to hidden places, only to return in the wake of the war between dark and light  (Devours Quotes) I have been a hundred times on the point of killing myself, but still was fond of life. This ridiculous weakness is perhaps one of our worst instincts. What can be more absurd than choosing to carry a burden that one really wants to throw to the ground? To detest, and yet to strive to preserve our existence? To caress the serpent that devours us, and hug him close to our bosoms till he has gnawed into our hearts?  (Devours Quotes) I swear love is the most powerful emotion thats ever existed. It owns people, devours them, tears them open and bleeds them out from the inside, making them defenseless to everything. Hate is the same way. Hate takes your levelheadedness and even your sanity away from you  (Devours Quotes) A prayerless church member is a hindrance. He is in the body like a rotting bone or a decayed tooth. Before long, since he does not contribute to the benefit of his brethren, he will become a danger and a sorrow to them. Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church  (Devours Quotes) Nature has become something new. It is ours now, truly. And if our creation devours us, how poetic will that be?  (Devours Quotes)
