Text Quotes
Pessimism is a very easy way out because it is a short view of life. If you look at what is happening around us today, you can’t help but feel that life is a terrible complexity of problems. But if you look back a few thousand years, you realize that we have advanced fantastically. If you take a long view, I do not see how you can be pessimistic about the future of mankind  (Thousand Years Quotes) Just as with other great words, the word environment means different things. You might say that a cave woman twenty thousand years ago sweeping out the cave was improving the environment. Many people improving the environment think only in terms of the air they breathe in their hometown and the water in the aquifer under their hometown. My guess is very few are thinking centuries ahead or thousand of years ahead, but that’s what we have to do  (Thousand Years Quotes) Cinema doesn’t connect with the body as artists have in two thousand years of painting, using the nude as the central figure which the ideas seem to circulate around. I think it is important to somehow push or stretch or emphasize, in as many ways as I can, the sheer bulk, shape, heaviness, the juices, the actual structure of the body. Cinema basically examines a personality first and the body afterward  (Thousand Years Quotes) What did it mean, the first time, a thinking creature looked deeply into another’s eyes? Did it take a hundred thousand years before this happened or it was the first thing they did, transcendingly, the thing that made them higher, made them modern, the gaze that demonstrates we are lonely in our souls?  (Thousand Years Quotes) Moderate giftedness has been made worthless by the printing press and radio and television and satellites and all that. A moderately gifted person who would have been a community treasure a thousand years ago has to give up, has to go into some other line of work, since modern communications put him or her into daily competition with nothing but world’s champions  (Thousand Years Quotes) The sage has the sun and moon by his side and the universe under his arm. He blends everything into a harmonious whole... He blends the disparities of ten thousand years into one complete purity. All things are blended like this and mutually involve each other  (Thousand Years Quotes) In the last five or six thousand years, empires one after another have arisen, waxed powerful by wars of conquest, and fallen by internal revolution or attack from without  (Thousand Years Quotes) I might run from her for a thousand years and she is still my baby child. Our love is so furious that we burn each other out  (Thousand Years Quotes) That could stay, not forever, because we believe that nothing exists that is forever, not even the dinosaurs, but if well maintained, it could remain for four to five thousand years. And that is definitely not forever  (Thousand Years Quotes) So are you saying that somebody went to all the trouble to make you a crypt a thousand years ago on the off chance that you might turn up one day, walk in, and have a convenient heart attack?  (Thousand Years Quotes) Even if you lose yourself in wrath for a hundred thousand years, at the end you will discover, it is me, who is the culmination of your dreams  (Thousand Years Quotes) The feeling of being the thousand years behind, or ahead, of the others, of belonging to the beginnings or to the end of humanity  (Thousand Years Quotes) They made two thousand years ago seem like yesterday, and yesterday look like today, just as today would, in time, look like tomorrow  (Thousand Years Quotes) Do all your work as though you had a thousand years to live; and as you would if you knew you must die tomorrow  (Thousand Years Quotes) We’re told that they were zealots fueled by religious fervour.. Religious fervour and if you live to be a thousand years old will that make any sense to you? Will that make any goddamn sense?  (Thousand Years Quotes) No move towards the extinction of the passion between the sexes has taken place in the five or six thousand years that the world has existed  (Thousand Years Quotes) Your friends will know you better in the first minute they meet you than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years  (Thousand Years Quotes) The world could not exist if it were not simple. This ground has been tilled a thousand years, yet its powers remain ever the same; a little rain, a little sun, and each spring it grows green again  (Thousand Years Quotes) Reason is progressive; instinct, stationary. Five thousand years have added no improvement to the hive of the bee, nor the house of the beaver  (Thousand Years Quotes) Five thousand years have added no improvement to the hive of the bee, nor to the house of the beaver; but look at the habitations and the achievements of men!  (Thousand Years Quotes) My main theme is the extension of the nervous system in the electric age, and thus, the complete break with five thousand years of mechanical technology. This I state over and over again. I do not say whether it is a good or bad thing. To do so would be meaningless and arrogant  (Thousand Years Quotes) Man has been breeding livestock for ten thousand years and has yet to come up with a monstrous sheep that can trample buildings and graze a whole golf course for breakfast  (Thousand Years Quotes) And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for two and a half thousand years, the ring? passed out of all knowledge  (Thousand Years Quotes) I hope that I live for a thousand years, and have a thousand daughters so that there will always be a woman who can curse your name  (Thousand Years Quotes) Wine drinking goes back at least six thousand years. Wine writing probably began a year or two later  (Thousand Years Quotes) For two thousand years, the Church has guided the development of music, carefully legislating to fuse artistic talent and aesthetic beauty with the demands of the Faith  (Thousand Years Quotes) At various times during the last four thousand years God has asserted his rights and endeavoured to establish his own authority, his own laws, and his own government among the children of men  (Thousand Years Quotes) Two thousand years ago, we lived in a world of Gods and Goddesses. Today, we live in a world solely of Gods. Women in most cultures have been stripped of their spiritual power  (Thousand Years Quotes) We are asking the nations of Europe between whom rivers of blood have flowed to forget the feuds of a thousand years  (Thousand Years Quotes) You may make something you don’t think is very important during your lifetime and it’ll last for a thousand years  (Thousand Years Quotes)
