Urf Quotes

I’ve been divorced and I had to get back out there be single again and do some of that in the genuinely miserable state where you really do wonder what the hell is going on. And you feel like trying to have casual conversation with someone you don’t know on the surface of the moon or something Picture Quote #1

Because of its independence of surface limitations and its superior speed the airplane is the offensive weapon par excellence Picture Quote #1

Scratch the surface in a typical boardroom and we’re all just cavemen with briefcases, hungry for a wise person to tell us stories Picture Quote #1

A man who has been born into the house of a warrior and yet places no loyalty in his heart and thinks only of the fortune of his position will be flattering on the surface and construct schemes in his heart, will forsake righteousness and not reflect on his shame, and will stain the warrior’s name of his household to later generations. This is truly regrettable Picture Quote #1

Travel does not exist without home... If we never return to the place we started, we would just be wandering, lost. Home is a reflecting surface, a place to measure our growth and enrich us after being infused with the outside world Picture Quote #1

Each of us is a moving center, a space of divine mystery. And though we spend most of our time on the surface in the daily details of ordinary existence, most us hunger to connect to this space within, to break through to bliss, to be swept away into something bigger than us Picture Quote #1

I am convinced that a good building must be capable of absorbing the traces of human life and taking on a specific richness... I think of the patina of age on materials, of innumerable small scratches on surfaces, of varnish that has grown dull and brittle, and of edges polished by use Picture Quote #1

Composition, the aim of which is expression, alters itself according to the surface to be covered. If I take a sheet of paper of given dimensions, I will jot down a drawing which will have a necessary relation to its format Picture Quote #1

Do not imagine that I would disregard that thing that lies beneath the mask... but be sure that when the outside is rightly seen, the thing that lies under the surface will be found upon your canvas Picture Quote #1

The surface of learning is hearing what your ears aren’t prepared to hear, and the core of learning is hearing what your ears don’t want to hear Picture Quote #1

I’m learning kite surfing. It’s a little surfboard you have on your feet with straps, and you have a big kite like a power glider in the air that pulls you. You don’t need waves to move, and it makes a big spray of water as you go Picture Quote #1

Spurn not at seeming error, but dig below its surface for the truth; And beware of seeming truths that grow on the roots of error Picture Quote #1

Surfing is like that. You are either vigorously cursing or else you are idiotically pleased with yourself Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of similarities between music and surfing. There’s a rhythm to both of them and with sound waves and ocean waves, you see patterns, plus the breathing is all part of it Picture Quote #1

If I didn’t follow my passion for surfing... I would have never come up with the concept to make a wrist camera Picture Quote #1

In some way the secret vice exhales its poison; and the evil passion, however cunningly masked, stains through to the surface Picture Quote #1

Through pride we are ever deceiving ourselves. But deep down below the surface of the average conscience a still, small voice says to us, something is out of tune Picture Quote #1

Time and space are finite in extent, but they don’t have any boundary or edge. They would be like the surface of the earth, but with two more dimensions Picture Quote #1

Now small fowls flew screaming over the yet yawning gulf; a sullen white surf beat against its steep sides; then all collapsed; and the great shroud of the sea rolled on as it rolled five thousand years ago Picture Quote #1

When a blind beetle crawls over the surface of the globe, he doesn’t realize that the track he has covered is curved. I was lucky enough to have spotted it Picture Quote #1

You see with your eyes. This means you can be misled by charm, by outward appearance. By webs of glamour, by surface pretences. I do not see with my eyes. I see good and I see evil. Nothing else Picture Quote #1

Whatever the source of emotion that drives me to create, I want to give it a form which has some connection with the visible world, even if it is only to wage war on that world... I want my paintings to be able to defend themselves to resist the invader, just as though there were razor blades on all surfaces so no one could touch them without cutting his hands Picture Quote #1

Your heart is like a great river after a long spell of rain, spilling over its banks. All signposts that once stood on the ground are gone, inundated and carried away by that rush of water. And still the rain beats down on the surface of the river. Every time you see a flood like that on the news you tell yourself: That’s it. That’s my heart Picture Quote #1

In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousandfold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers... we are ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations Picture Quote #1

Feelings are much like waves, we can’t stop them from coming but we can choose which ones to surf Picture Quote #1

If the man who paints only the tree, or flower, or other surface he sees before him were an artist, the king of artists would be the photographer. It is for the artist to do something beyond this Picture Quote #1

Time is like a river, in which metals and solid substances are sunk, while chaff and straws swim upon the surface Picture Quote #1
