Text Quotes
The name of a man is a numbing blow from which he never recovers  (Numbing Quotes) There is no disappointment so numbing... as someone no better than you achieving more  (Numbing Quotes) Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it  (Numbing Quotes) Fiction cannot recite the numbing numbers, but it can be that witness, that memory. A storyteller can attempt to tell the human tale, can make a galaxy out of the chaos, can point to the fact that some people survived even as most people died. And can remind us that the swallows still sing around the smokestacks  (Numbing Quotes) I’m not terribly happy about rock and roll. Certain rock music is uninspiring, numbing; it makes you feel like an idiot.  (Numbing Quotes) Looking at everything through your phone is only numbing your perception - it does not really enhance your experience of life in any way.  (Numbing Quotes) But for the unquiet heart and brain A use in measured language lies; The sad mechanic exercise Like dull narcotics numbing pain.  (Numbing Quotes) People are constantly not feeling, but numbing themselves, either through medication or playing on their phones.

Every time I had a pain in my leg I got used to numbing it out  (Numbing Quotes) Traumatized people chronically feel unsafe inside their bodies: The past is alive in the form of gnawing interior discomfort. Their bodies are constantly bombarded by visceral warning signs, and, in an attempt to control these processes, they often become expert at ignoring their gut feelings and in numbing awareness of what is played out inside. They learn to hide from their selves  (Numbing Quotes) Is the beauty myth good to men? It hurts them by teaching them how to avoid loving women. It prevents men from actually seeing women. It does not, contrary to its own professed ideology, stimulate and gratify sexual longing. In suggesting a vision in place of a woman, it has a numbing effect, reducing all senses but the visual, and impairing even that  (Numbing Quotes) The refusal to feel takes a heavy toll. Not only is there an impoverishment of our emotional and sensory life, flowers are dimmer and less fragrant, our loves less ecstaticâ but this psychic numbing also impedes our capacity to process and respond to information. The energy expended in pushing down despair is diverted from more creative uses, depleting the resilience and imagination needed for fresh visions and strategies  (Numbing Quotes) There’s something about sober living and sober thinking, about facing long afternoons without the numbing distraction of anesthesia that disabuses you of the belief in the externals, shows you that strength and hope come not from circumstances or the acquisition of things, but from the simple accumulation of active experience, from gritting the teeth and checking the items off the list, one by one, even if it’s painful and you’re afraid  (Numbing Quotes) There’s so much denial in gymnastics. It’s a beautiful sport but the other part is numbing. You become machinelike. They’ll refute this, but I’ve been around it. I know  (Numbing Quotes) I have been able to tap into all the negative things that can happen to me throughout my life by numbing myself to the pain so to speak and kind of being able to vent it through my music  (Numbing Quotes) I’m not terribly happy about rock and roll. Certain rock music is uninspiring, numbing; it makes you feel like an idiot  (Numbing Quotes) He felt the chill of her secrecy, numbing him, like a poison spreading quickly through his veins  (Numbing Quotes) Are certainly other causes of illness, numbing, and hurt, but the absence of love and belonging will always lead to suffering  (Numbing Quotes) I believe that owning our worthiness is the act of acknowledging that we are sacred. Perhaps embracing vulnerability and overcoming numbing is ultimately about the care and feeding of our spirits  (Numbing Quotes)
