Text Quotes
Individually, people are finding that a simpler lifestyle provides greater satisfaction than relentless pursuit of materialism  (Pursuit Quotes) Education must be a lifelong pursuit. The person who doesn’t read is not better off than the person who can’t  (Pursuit Quotes) In every age, people are certain that only the things they have deemed valuable have true value. The search for love and the search for wealth are always the two best stories. But while a love story is timeless, the story of a quest for wealth, given enough time, will always seem like the vain pursuit of a mirage  (Pursuit Quotes) It would be better for us to have some doubts in an honest pursuit of truth, than it would be for us to be certain about something that was not true  (Pursuit Quotes) There is a tonic strength, in the hour of sorrow and affliction, in escaping from the world and society and getting back to the simple duties and interests we have slighted and forgotten. Our world grows smaller, but it grows dearer and greater. Simple things have a new charm for us, and we suddenly realize that we have been renouncing all that is greatest and best, in our pursuit of some phantom  (Pursuit Quotes) It is proved by surveys that happiness does not come from love, wealth, or power but the pursuit of attainable goals  (Pursuit Quotes) No one can obtain felicity by pursuit. This explains why one of the elements of being happy is the feeling that a debt of gratitude is owed, a debt impossible to pay. Now, we do not owe gratitude to ourselves. To be conscious of gratitude is to acknowledge a gift  (Pursuit Quotes) Repose, leisure, peace, belong among the elements of happiness. If we have not escaped from harried rush, from mad pursuit, from unrest, from the necessity of care, we are not happy. And what of contemplation? Its very premise is freedom from the fetters of workaday busyness. Moreover, it itself actualizes this freedom by virtue of being intuition  (Pursuit Quotes) It’s better to die in pursuit of your dreams than to live a life without hope  (Pursuit Quotes) True purity, however, is a direction, a persistent, determined pursuit of righteousness. This direction starts in the heart, and we express it in a lifestyle that flees opportunities for compromise  (Pursuit Quotes) More important than talent, strength, or knowledge is the ability to laugh at yourself and enjoy the pursuit of your dreams  (Pursuit Quotes) Our happiest moments as tourists always seem to come when we stumble upon one thing while in pursuit of something else  (Pursuit Quotes) Satyagraha is the pursuit of truth. My grandfather believed that truth should be the cornerstone of everybody’s life and that we must dedicate our lives to pursuing truth, to finding out the truth in our lives. And so his entire philosophy was the philosophy of life. It was not just a philosophy for conflict resolution, but something that we have to imbibe in our life and live it all the time so that we can improve and become better human beings  (Pursuit Quotes) We imagine a school in which students and teachers excitedly and joyfully stretch themselves to their limits in pursuit of projects built on their vision... not one that succeeds in making apathetic students satisfying minimal standards  (Pursuit Quotes) Religions have become a hindrance, rather than a help, to our shared pursuit of peace and progress. They tend to make us meaner rather than better human beings, less sensitive to the demands of justice, compassion and fellow humanity in our times  (Pursuit Quotes) Goals live on the other side of obstacles and challenges. Be relentless in pursuit of those goals, especially in the face of obstacles. Along the way, make no excuses and place no blame  (Pursuit Quotes) The goal of pursuit of justice must not simply be that justice happens but that reconciliation also happens  (Pursuit Quotes) Ultimately there can be no freedom for self unless it is vouchsafed for others; there can be no security where there is fear, and a democratic society presupposes confidence and candor in the relations of men with one another and eager collaboration for the larger ends of life instead of the pursuit of petty, selfish or vainglorious aims  (Pursuit Quotes) If one were truly aware of the value of human life, to waste it blithely on distractions and the pursuit of vulgar ambitions would be the height of confusion  (Pursuit Quotes) The rub is that the pursuit of happiness, as an end in itself, tends automatically, and widely, to be replaced by the pursuit of pleasure with a consequent general softening of the fibers of will, intelligence, spirit  (Pursuit Quotes) Every student who enters upon a scientific pursuit, especially if at a somewhat advanced period of life, will find not only that he has much to learn, but much also to unlearn  (Pursuit Quotes) What a delight it is to think that you are quietly and philosophically at work in the pursuit of science... rather than fighting amongst the crowd of black passions and motives that seem now a days to urge men every where into action. What incredible scenes every where, what unworthy motives ruled for the moment, under high sounding phrases and at the last what disgusting revolutions  (Pursuit Quotes) Psychological wealth includes life satisfaction, the feeling that life is full of meaning, a sense of engagement in interesting activities, the pursuit of important goals, the experience of positive emotional feelings, and a sense of spirituality that connects people to things larger than themselves  (Pursuit Quotes) It’s very important to remember that it’s your intellectual property; it’s not your computer. And in the pursuit of protection of intellectual property, it’s important not to defeat or undermine the security measures that people need to adopt in these days  (Pursuit Quotes) The fascination of any search after truth lies not in the attainment, which at best is found to be very relative, but in the pursuit, where all the powers of the mind and character are brought into play and are absorbed by the task. One feels oneself in contact with something that is infinite and one finds joy that is beyond expression in sounding the abyss of science and the secrets of the infinite mind  (Pursuit Quotes) Whoever, in the pursuit of science, seeks after immediate practical utility, may generally rest assured that he will seek in vain  (Pursuit Quotes) Real peace comes only when you stop chasing it. When you relax your driving desire for comfort, real fulfillment arises. When you drop your hectic pursuit of gratification, the real beauty of life comes out. When you seek to know the reality without illusion, complete with all its pain and danger, that is when real freedfom and security are yours  (Pursuit Quotes) The ordinary patient goes to his doctor because he is in pain or some other discomfort and wants to be comfortable again; he is not in pursuit of the ideal of health in any direct sense. The doctor on the other hand wants to discover the pathological condition and control it if he can. The two are thus to some degree at cross purposes from the first, and unless the affair is brought to an early and happy conclusion this diversion of aims is likely to become more and more serious as the case goes on  (Pursuit Quotes) Most of us live our whole lives without having an adventure to call our own. What is any life without the pursuit of a dream?  (Pursuit Quotes) And yet, we know how fatal the pursuit of liveliness may be: it may result in... tiresome acrobatics... Flashy effects distract the mind. They destroy their persuasiveness; you would not believe a man was very intent on ploughing a furrow if he carried a hoop with him and jumped through it at every other step... When virtuosity gets the upper hand of your theme, or is better than your idea, it is time to quit  (Pursuit Quotes)
