Pearl Quotes

For memory, we use our imagination. We take a few strands of real time and carry them with us, then like an oyster we create a pearl around them Picture Quote #1

The artist is the child in the popular fable, every one of whose tears was a pearl Picture Quote #1

It is no more easy to make a good picture than it is to find a diamond or a pearl. It means trouble and you risk your life for it Picture Quote #1

Academic work is one of those fields which contain a pearl so precious that it is worth while to sell all our possessions, keeping nothing for ourselves, in order to be able to acquire it Picture Quote #1

As a youngster, I used to try to pick up any bits of wisdom about the guitar I could. Its not like now where you have books and books about every aspect of anything. Any little pearl of wisdom was welcome back then Picture Quote #1

I threw the pearl of my soul into a cup of wine. I went down the primrose path to the sound of flutes. I lived on honeycomb Picture Quote #1

People don’t want to be bothered, if they’re not being pressured to change. You have to push people. You have to be the agitator that makes the pearl Picture Quote #1

Were the diver to think on the jaws of the shark, he would never lay hands on the precious pearl Picture Quote #1

Somewhere along the line I knew there’d be girls, visions, everything; somewhere along the line the pearl would be handed to me Picture Quote #1

Fame is a pearl many dive for and only a few bring up. Even when they do, it is not perfect, and they sigh for more, and lose better things in struggling for them Picture Quote #1

How desirable is this simplicity! Who will give it to me? I will quit all else; it is the pearl of great price Picture Quote #1

To love or have loved, that is enough. Ask nothing further. There is no other pearl to be found in the dark folds of life Picture Quote #1

There is a curious thing that happens with the passage of time: a calcification of character... Change isn’t always for the worst; the shell that forms around a piece of sand looks to some people like an irritation, and to others, like a pearl Picture Quote #1

Sometimes when I’m alone, I take the pearl from where it lives in my pocket and try to remember the boy with the bread, the strong arms that warded off nightmares on the train, the kisses in the arena Picture Quote #1

We build a shell around it, like an oyster dealing with a painful particle of grit, coating it with smooth pearl layers in order to cope. This is how we walk and talk and function, day in, day out. Immune to others’ pain and loss Picture Quote #1

There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling Picture Quote #1

The intellectual quest, though fine as pearl or coral, is not the spiritual search. That spiritual search is on another level. Spiritual wine is a different substance Picture Quote #1

I hate to sound self absorbed, but I’m just going to cast out this pearl of wisdom, if I could give the whole world cancer and kill them and be the last man on earth it would be a sign that God loves me especially Picture Quote #1

The mind must be allowed to settle undisturbed over the object in order to secrete the pearl Picture Quote #1

I dream a world... where wretchedness will hang its head and joy, like a pearl, attends the needs of all mankind. Of such I dream, my world! Picture Quote #1

Depression can be the sand that makes the pearl. Most of my best work came out of it Picture Quote #1

I am pure light, not just a fistful of clay. The shell is not me, I came as the royal pearl within. Look at me not with outward eye but with inward vision of the heart; Follow me there and see how unencumbered we become Picture Quote #1

Yet you could feel a vibration in the air, a sense of hastening. It had started with the moon, inaccessible poem that it was. Now men had walked upon it, rubber treads on a pearl of the gods. Perhaps it was an awareness of time passing, the last summer of the decade. Sometimes I just wanted to raise my hands and stop. But stop what? Maybe just growing up Picture Quote #1

Do you know what a pearl is and what an opal is? My soul when you came sauntering to me first through those sweet summer evenings was beautiful but with the pale passionless beauty of a pearl. Your love has passed through me and now I feel my mind something like an opal, that is, full of strange uncertain hues and colours, of warm lights and quick shadows and of broken music Picture Quote #1

The deepest hunger in life is a secret that is revealed only when a person is willing to unlock a hidden part of the self. In the ancient traditions of wisdom, this quest has been likened to diving for the most precious pearl in existence, a poetic way of saying that you have to swim far out beyond shallow waters, plunge deep into yourself, and search patiently until the pearl beyond price is found Picture Quote #1

The twilight fleeted away in pearl on the stream, and night, like a diamond dome, stood still in our dream Picture Quote #1

The kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it Picture Quote #1

Got no diamond, got no pearl, still I think I’m a lucky girl, I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night Picture Quote #1

Love is a pearl of purest hue, but stormy waves are round it; and dearly may a woman rue, the hour that she found it Picture Quote #1

Affect not to despise beauty, no one is freed from its dominion; but regard is not a pearl of price, it is fleeting as the bow in the clouds Picture Quote #1
