Text Quotes
Writing poetry, we live among the wild beasts, and when we touch a man, the stuff of someone in whom we believed, and he goes to pieces like a rotten pie, you... gather together whatever can be salvaged, while I cup my hands around the live coal of life (Vage Quotes)
The trombone is the true head of the family of wind instruments... it has all the serious and powerful tones of sublime musical poetry, from religious, calm and imposing accents to savage, orgiastic outburst (Vage Quotes)
Savage peoples are ruled by passion, civilized peoples by the mind. The difference lies not in the respective natures of savagery and civilization, but in their attendant circumstances, institutions, and so forth. The difference, therefore, does not operate in every sense, but it does in most of them. Even the most civilized peoples, in short, can be fired with passionate hatred for each other (Vage Quotes)
The settler and pioneer have at bottom had justice on their side; this great continent could not have been kept as nothing but a game preserve for squalid savages (Vage Quotes)
In an effort to civilize combat sports, authorities mandated padded gloves and instantly made the sports far more savage. Granted, putting gloves on the hands seems like a nice thing to do. If you were being punched in the brain by a powerful man, wouldn’t you rather he strap a pillow around his fist? But the glove doesn’t do anything to diminish your brain damage (Vage Quotes)
Religion can only change when the emotions which fill it are changed; and the religion of personal fear remains nearly at the level of the savage (Vage Quotes)
Perhaps nothing is so fraught with significance as the human hand, this oldest tool with which man has dug his way from savagery, and with which he is constantly groping forward (Vage Quotes)
The institution of a leisure class has emerged gradually during the transition from primitive savagery to barbarism; or more precisely, during the transition from a peaceable to a consistently warlike habit of life (Vage Quotes)
Work restores humankind and all its attributes to the savage animal condition that was its original intended state (Vage Quotes)
A crowd is not merely impulsive and mobile. Like a savage, it is not prepared to admit that anything can come between its desire and the realisation of its desire (Vage Quotes)
There is no origin for the idea of an afterlife, save the conclusion which the savage draws from the notion suggested by dreams (Vage Quotes)
A wedding is a funeral which masquerades as a feast. And the greater the pageantry, the deeper the savagery (Vage Quotes)
Science has salvaged scrap metal and even found vitamins and valuable oils in refuse, but old people are extravagantly wasted (Vage Quotes)
The savage hatred I feel for crowds is getting worse, natural enemies that they are of imagination and of thought (Vage Quotes)
The most savage and voracious animal never kills to increase his wealth, or open a way to grandeur. It slays to satisfy his hunger, or in a natural defense of his own life, or of those whom he is prompted by instinct to preserve (Vage Quotes)
Don’t denounce our pain as savage. What’s savage is the cruel inhumanity and brutality of the police. Condemn that (Vage Quotes)
Around us I can sniff out a savagery in the noisy southern air. It knifes it’s way into my nose, but I do not bleed blood. It’s fear I bleed, and it gushes out over my lip. I wipe it away, in a hurry (Vage Quotes)
Get a friend to tell you your faults, or better still, welcome an enemy who will watch you keenly and sting you savagely. What a blessing such an irritating critic will be to a wise man, what an intolerable nuisance to a fool! (Vage Quotes)
We’ve got to have rules and obey them. After all, we’re not savages. We’re English, and the English are best at everything (Vage Quotes)
Not all the ravages caused by our merciless age are tangible ones. The subtler forms of destruction, those involving only the human spirit, are the most to be dreaded (Vage Quotes)
You know we poor artists have to show ourselves in society from time to time, just to remind the public that we are not savages (Vage Quotes)
The iron did not remember the blood it had once moved within, the phosphorous had forgot the savage brain (Vage Quotes)
Children and savages use only nouns or names of things, which they convert into verbs, and apply to analogous mental acts (Vage Quotes)
The customs of some savage nations might, perchance, be profitably imitated by us, for they at least go through the semblance of casting their slough annually; they have the idea of the thing, whether they have the reality or not (Vage Quotes)
When you have civilized men fighting savages, you support the civilized men, no matter who they are (Vage Quotes)
How can such episodes of such savage cruelty happen? The heart of man is an abyss out of which sometimes emerge plots of unspeakable ferocity capable of overturning in an instant the tranquil and productive life of a people (Vage Quotes)
I will not abridge my freedoms so as not to offend savages, freedom of speech is under violent assault here (Vage Quotes)
It began in mystery, and it will end in mystery, but what a savage and beautiful country lies in between (Vage Quotes)
At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace the savage races throughout the world (Vage Quotes)
We are all ready to be savage in some cause. The difference between a good man and a bad one is the choice of the cause (Vage Quotes)
