Sands Quotes

Without dignity our lives are only blinks of duration. But if we manage to lead a good life well, we create something more. We write a subscript to our mortality. We make our lives tiny diamonds in the cosmic sands Picture Quote #1

One by one the sands are flowing, one by one the moments fall; some are coming, some are going; do not strive to grasp them all Picture Quote #1

Truly it has been said that there is nothing new under the sun, for knowledge is revealed and is submerged again, even as a nation rises and falls. Here is a system, tested throughout the ages, but lost again and again by ignorance or prejudice, in the same way that great nations have risen and fallen and been lost to history beneath the desert sands and in the ocean depths Picture Quote #1

The spoken discourse may roll on strongly as the great tidal wave; but, like the wave, it dies at last feebly on the sands. It is heard by few, remembered by still fewer, and fades away, like an echo in the mountains, leaving no token of power. It is the written human speech, that gave power and permanence to human thought Picture Quote #1

Our doom is, to be sifted by the wind, heaped up, smoothed down like silly sands. We are less permanent than thought Picture Quote #1

Junkies find veins in their toes when the veins in their arms collapse. Developing tars sands is the equivalent Picture Quote #1

As falls the dew on quenchless sands, blood only serves to wash ambition’s hands Picture Quote #1

When asked for advice by beginners. Know your ending, I say, or the river of your story may finally sink into the desert sands and never reach the sea Picture Quote #1

And perhaps beyond those shrouded swells another man did walk with another child on the dead gray sands. Slept but a sea apart on another beach among the bitter ashes of the world or stood in their rags lost to the same indifferent sun Picture Quote #1

For now is my grief heavier than the sands of the seas, she thought. This world has emptied me of all but the oldest purpose: tomorrow’s life Picture Quote #1

We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren’t, or of moments that could have been found but were forever hidden in the sands Picture Quote #1

I walk across the dreaming sands under the pale moon: through the dreams of countries and cities, past dreams of places long gone and times beyond recall Picture Quote #1

The sands of time cannot be stopped. Years pass whether we will them or not... but we can remember. What has been lost may yet live in memories Picture Quote #1

Expedients are for the hour, but principles are for the ages. Just because the rains descend, and the winds blow, we cannot afford to build on shifting sands Picture Quote #1

Each of us has... all the time there is. Those years, weeks, hours, are the sands in the glass running swiftly away. To let them drift through our fingers is tragic waste. To use them to the hilt, making them count for something, is the beginning of wisdom Picture Quote #1

Shy is the oyster, fervent is the clam, peaceful is the ocean floor rocked by the sands of time Picture Quote #1
