The Finger Quotes

The raft is used to cross the river. It isn't to be carried around on your shoulders. The finger which points at the moon isn't the moon itself Picture Quote #1

Marriage: a ceremony in which rings are put on the finger of the lady and through the nose of the gentleman Picture Quote #1

Books on the openings abound; nor are works on the end game wanting; but those on the middle game can be counted on the fingers of one hand Picture Quote #1

It’s much harder to be a liberal than a conservative. Why? Because it is easier to give someone the finger than a helping hand Picture Quote #1

Every victory of man over man has in itself a taste of defeat... There is no essential difference between the various human groups, creatures whose bones and brains and members are the same; and every damage we do there is a form of mutilation, as if the fingers of the left hand were to be cut off by the right Picture Quote #1

I have assigned many of my father’s basses to students, without endangering their lives. Also, they do no harm to the fingers Picture Quote #1

Then came nights when, lying awake beside my final wife, I would spend too much time putting my finger on what was wrong. I was wearing the finger out. What was wrong was very simple. Sometimes her life and mine fell on the same day Picture Quote #1

Woman is a delightful instrument of pleasure, but it is necessary to know its trembling strings, to study the position of them, the timid keyboard, the fingering so changeful and capricious which befits it Picture Quote #1

When you’ve been used to doing things, and they’ve been taken away from you, it’s as if your hands had been cut off, and you felt the fingers as are of no use to you Picture Quote #1

My left hand is my thinking hand. The right is only a motor hand. This holds the hammer. The left hand, the thinking hand, must be relaxed, sensitive. The rhythms of thought pass through the fingers and grip of this hand into the stone Picture Quote #1

Ten doors are opened if one door be shut: the finger is the interpreter of the dumb man’s tongue Picture Quote #1

When I’m having trouble I write by hand. There is some connection between the mind and the fingers that draws out words Picture Quote #1

I read, go for walks and I love to garden. My hands are such a mess. People think I should have movie star hands, but they’re just gardening ones. Always slightly grubby and with a bit of dirt under the fingernails Picture Quote #1

All of us should be much more humble and contrite when we point the finger at somebody else, because four more fingers are pointing back at us Picture Quote #1

The most welcome joke to me is the one that takes the place of a heavy, not altogether innocuous thought, at once a cautionary hint of the finger and a flash of the eye Picture Quote #1

The way to judge a good hand is that the fingers are the same size at the tip as where they come out of the hand itself Picture Quote #1

His heart was like a sensitive plant, that opens for a moment in the sunshine, but curls up and shrinks into itself at the slightest touch of the finger, or the lightest breath of wind Picture Quote #1

I tried when I was 13, when my grandparents gave me an acoustic guitar, and I tried for a year. It hurt so much to play. I mean, the fingertips hurt so much, I gave up Picture Quote #1

There is something truer and more real, than what we can see with the eyes, and touch with the finger Picture Quote #1

Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch it and it darts away Picture Quote #1

An en is a karmic bond lasting a lifetime. Nowadays many people seem to believe their lives are entirely a matter of choice; but in my day we viewed ourselves as pieces of clay that forever show the fingerprints of everyone who has touched them Picture Quote #1

I am not one to rely upon the expert procedure. It is the psychology I seek, not the fingerprint or the cigarette ash Picture Quote #1

Ah yes, the head is full of books. The hard part is to force them down through the bloodstream and out through the fingers Picture Quote #1

Its like a finger pointing away to the moon. Don’t concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory Picture Quote #1

We love what we love and who we love who we love and why we love why we love and find a falling shoelace knotted and strung between the fingers of strangers Picture Quote #1

I’d stood my ground against him. I wasn’t going to jump when he said jump. I was more likely to give him the finger Picture Quote #1

Like any child, I slid into myself perfectly fitted, as a diver meets her reflection in a pool. Her fingertips enter the fingertips on the water, her wrists slide up her arms. The diver wraps herself in her reflection wholly, sealing it at the toes, and wears it as she climbs rising from the pool, and ever after Picture Quote #1

Once I knew the depth where no hope was and darkness lay on the face of all things. Then love came and set my soul free. Once I fretted and beat myself against the wall that shut me in. My life was without a past or future, and death a consummation devoutly to be wished. But a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hands that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped up with the rapture of living. I do not know the meaning of the darkness, but I have learned the overcoming of it Picture Quote #1

One of the greatest challenges in creating a joyful, peaceful and abundant life is taking responsibility for what you do and how you do it. As long as you can blame someone else, be angry with someone else, point the finger at someone else, you are not taking responsibility for your life Picture Quote #1

I love old books. They tell you stories about their use. You can see where the fingerprints touched the pages as they held the book open. You can see how long they lingered on each page by the finger stains Picture Quote #1
