Settled Quotes

The angels in heaven covered their eyes with their hands and sobbed loudly, because that is what they always do when a man hits his wife. A profound sadness settled over the earth... God was silent in every language. The angels tried to dry their tears, but their handkerchiefs were so soaked through that is started raining even in the deserts Picture Quote #1

Yes, this is what I thought adulthood would be, a kind of long indian summer, a state of tranquility, of calm incuriousness, with nothing left of the barely bearable raw immediacy of childhood, all the things solved that had puzzled me when I was small, all mysteries settled, all questions answered, and the moments dripping away, unnoticed almost, drip by golden drip, toward the final, almost unnoticed, quietus Picture Quote #1

The heart of a virtuous person has settled down and he does not rush about at things. A person of little merit is not at peace but walks about making trouble and is in conflict with all Picture Quote #1

I’m a woman of a certain age who doesn’t have kids and never really settled down... I enjoy kids but not for long periods. I think they’re adorable and funny and sweet, and then I have a headache Picture Quote #1

There’s an ancient bond that still exists today between horses and humans, it is even there with people that have never ridden a horse or been around horses.

A lot of people don’t realize how much they owe the horse because it’s not so much a part of our culture right now as it used to be Picture Quote #1

Picture Quote #1

I think there’s a settled quality, there’s a gravitas that comes with aging and with being a parent because you certainly come to recognize that there’s nothing else that takes greater priority than raising your children Picture Quote #1

One of the big misapprehensions about mathematics that we perpetrate in our classrooms is that the teacher always seems to know the answer to any problem that is discussed. This gives students the idea that there is a book somewhere with all the right answers to all of the interesting questions, and that teachers know those answers. And if one could get hold of the book, one would have everything settled. That’s so unlike the true nature of mathematics Picture Quote #1

I always did think I would be married and settled down by now but maybe I ain’t ready Picture Quote #1

A picture is not thought out and settled beforehand. While it is being done it changes as one’s thoughts change Picture Quote #1

Nothing is good but mediocrity. The majority has settled that, and finds fault with him who escapes it at whichever end... To leave the mean is to abandon humanity Picture Quote #1

The more local and settled a culture, the better it stays put, the less the damage. It is the foreigner whose road of excess leads to a desert... a man with a machine and inadequate culture... is a pestilence. He shakes more than he can hold Picture Quote #1

I’ve never really been settled. I don’t think I’ve ever known what it was like to be a person that was used to sitting still. I think it’s given me the ability to detach from any situation Picture Quote #1
