It doesn’t always turn out  (Grain Quotes) The rewards we get by being those weird guys going against the grain to me are way more massive than selling a million billion records. I like climbing mountains or going on undersea dives for whales and stuff like that  (Grain Quotes) As polishing expresses the vein in marble, and grain in wood, so music brings out what of heroic lurks anywhere.

We do as much, we eat as much, we want as much  (Grain Quotes) The rice grain suffers under the blow of the pestle. But admire its whiteness once the order is over.

It is not really what is grasped by the grain. It is a heart grasp  (Grain Quotes) Acting is ephemeral. It’s not like making a painting that lasts forever. You’re doing something, and the very action which comes and goes, is being demonstrated in front of you. Within that process, you’re trying to go against the grain  (Grain Quotes) The wise ones fashioned speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is sifted through a sieve  (Grain Quotes) The destroyer of weeds, thistles, and thorns is a benefactor whether he soweth grain or not  (Grain Quotes) If one man offers you democracy and another offers you a bag of grain, at what stage of starvation do you prefer the grain to the vote?  (Grain Quotes) It is a general rule that when the grain of truth cannot be found, men will swallow great helpings of falsehood  (Grain Quotes) We must not inquire too curiously into motives. they are apt to become feeble in the utterance: the aroma is mixed with the grosser air. We must keep the germinating grain away from the light  (Grain Quotes) Come, pensive nun, devout and pure, sober steadfast, and demure, all in a robe of darkest grain, flowing with majestic train  (Grain Quotes) A charmed life old goodness hath; the tares may perish, but the grain is not for death  (Grain Quotes) One thought includes all thought, in the sense that a grain of sand includes the universe  (Grain Quotes) When a man is made up wholly of the dove, without the least grain of the serpent in his composition, he becomes ridiculous in many circumstances of life, and very often discredits his best actions  (Grain Quotes) Grain that is used to feed animals that end up on our tables as turkeys and hams could have gone to feed starving people  (Grain Quotes) A friend is one to whom one may pour out the contents of one’s heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that gentle hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away  (Grain Quotes) No varnish can hide the grain of the wood; and that the more varnish you put on, the more the grain will express itself  (Grain Quotes) Why cover the same ground again?... It goes against my grain to repeat a tale told once, and told so clearly  (Grain Quotes) Sometimes that mountain you’ve been climbing is just a grain of sand, and what you’ve been up there searching for forever, is in your hands. When you figure out love is all that matters after all it sure makes everything else seem so small  (Grain Quotes) Just remember: If one bird carried every grain of sand, grain by grain, across the ocean, by the time he got them all on the other side, that would only be the beginning of eternity  (Grain Quotes) Common men talk bagfuls of religion but do not practise even a grain of it.
