Settled Quotes

It was obvious that the matter had to be settled, and evasions were distasteful to me Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I remind myself that I almost skipped the party, that I almost went to a different college, that the whim of a minute could have changed everything and everyone. Our lives, so settled, so specific, are built on happenstance Picture Quote #1

The relation between what we see and what we know is never settled. Each evening we see the sun set. We know that the earth is turning away from it. Yet the knowledge, the explanation, never quite fits the sight Picture Quote #1

I leave it to be settled, by whomsoever it may concern, whether the tendency of this work be altogether to recommend parental tyranny, or reward filial disobedience Picture Quote #1

Time doesn’t, as advertised, heal all wounds. Although the wrenching immediacy of grief eventually passed, the settled sorrow that replaced it might in its own way be even more intense Picture Quote #1

She’d lost her fury, somewhere, as they’d talked. She didn’t feel it anymore. She wished she did, because she preferred it to the emptiness that had settled in its place Picture Quote #1

Give your problem all the thought you possibly can before a solution is reached. But when the matter is settled and over with, worry not at all Picture Quote #1

When the enemy is relaxed, make them toil. When full, starve them. When settled, make them move Picture Quote #1

War is a conflict of great interests which is settled by bloodshed, and only in that is it different from others Picture Quote #1

Let thy carriage be such as becomes a man grave settled and attentive to that which is spoken. Contradict not, at every turn, what others say Picture Quote #1

Begin and proceed on a settled conviction that but little is permitted to any man to do or to know, and if he complies with the first grand laws, he shall do well Picture Quote #1

Nature does nothing without a purpose. In children may be observed the traces and seeds of what will one day be settled psychological habits, though psychologically a child hardly differs for the time being from an animal Picture Quote #1

No great question will ever be settled in dollars and cents. Great questions must be settled on moral grounds and the tests of what makes free men Picture Quote #1

The genius of man is hidden in the silent, settled state of mind from where every thought emerges Picture Quote #1

It’s actually very hard when you’re settled in one place to completely uproot yourself and go Picture Quote #1

It is safer to quote what is written than what is spoken. What a man writes it is fair to presume he believes as a matter of general conviction, but it is not so with what he utters in the freedom of conversation. In that he may only express the feeling of the moment, and not his settled judgment, or matured opinion Picture Quote #1

The more settled I’ve become, the more problematic my characters have become. There was a period when I wrote sensitive and gentle songs and these came at a time when life was at its most destructive. I think you write about what you need, on some level Picture Quote #1

I can’t ever seem to shake the feeling that when things are really good it essentially means that things are going to go really bad. When I feel calm and settled, there is always an underlying feeling of impending doom... I don’t think that it’s healthy Picture Quote #1

As your consciousness becomes more settled, all your life patterns change. What religions have called sin will disappear from your life, and what they have called virtue will automatically flow from your being, from your actions. But they have been doing just vice versa: first change the acts... It is as if you are in a dark house, and you are stumbling over furniture and over things, and you are told that unless you stop stumbling, light is not possible Picture Quote #1

The value of money has been settled by general consent to express our wants and our property, as letters were invented to express our ideas; and both these institutions, by giving a more active energy to the powers and passions of human nature, have contributed to multiply the objects they were designed to represent Picture Quote #1

The time has already come when each country needs a considered national policy about what size of population, whether larger or smaller than at present or the same, is most expedient. And having settled this policy, we must take steps to carry it into operation. The time may arrive a little later when the community as a whole must pay attention to the innate quality as well as to the mere numbers of its future members Picture Quote #1

If the views I have expressed be right, we can think of our civilization evolving with the growth of knowledge from small wandering tribes to large settled law Picture Quote #1

In a continent but recently settled, many parts of which have as yet little historical or cultural background, the material for this volume has been gathered from a section that was one of the first to be colonized Picture Quote #1

Nigel might have an earlier date, but I think it’s unprecedented from my memory. So it is a reminder to everybody that the public can move very rapidly on some issues and therefore what looks settled may not be Picture Quote #1

The rest is a mere matter of detail, to be settled with judgment, discretion, and caution Picture Quote #1

It’s important to feel settled and balanced in life, and that has been tough for me to do Picture Quote #1
