Vei Quotes

I've known rivers: I've known rivers ancient as the world and older than the flow of human blood in human veins. My soul has grown deep like the rivers Picture Quote #1

The truth is that the man who walked among us was a demonstration, not of unveiled deity, but of perfect humanity Picture Quote #1

Lord, how excellent are Thy ways, and how devious and dark are the ways of man. Show us how to die, that we may rise again to newness of life. Rend the veil of our self-life from the top down as Thou didst rend the veil of the Temple. We would draw near in full assurance of faith. We would dwell with Thee in daily experience here on this earth so that we may be accustomed to the glory when we enter Thy heaven to dwell with Thee there. In Jesus' name, Amen Picture Quote #1

Occasionally words must serve to veil the facts. But let this happen in such a way that no one become aware of it; or, if it should be noticed, excuses must be at hand to be produced immediately Picture Quote #1

He who is the author of a war lets loose the whole contagion of hell and opens a vein that bleeds a nation to death Picture Quote #1

He wept for truth which was dead, for heaven which was void. Beyond the marble walls and gleaming jewelled altars, the huge plaster Christ had no longer a single drop of blood in its veins Picture Quote #1

Midnight, strange mystic hour, when the veil between the frail present and the eternal future grows thin Picture Quote #1

Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again. I have a faint cold fear thrills through my veins, that almost freezes up the heat of life Picture Quote #1

When one tears away the veils and shows them naked, people's souls give off such a pungent smell of decay Picture Quote #1

Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar Picture Quote #1

With fairest flowers, whilst summer lasts and I live here, fidele, I'll sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack the flower that's like thy face, pale primrose; nor the azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor the leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander, outsweet'ned not thy breath Picture Quote #1

Her polish'd limbs, veil'd in a simple robe, their best attire; beyond the pomp of dress; for loveliness needs not the foreign aid of ornament, but is, when unadorn'd the most Picture Quote #1

Friendship is held to be the severest test of character. It is easy, we think, to be loyal to a family and clan, whose blood is in your own veins Picture Quote #1

Somebody said writing is easy, you just sit down at your typewriter and open a vein. It depends on the book. Some, I have to do quite a lot of research, which I like. Others are much closer to me Picture Quote #1

I do not have a bride gene. I haven’t been planning a wedding since I was 3. I never put a sheet on my head and pretended that it was a veil Picture Quote #1

How long will this last, this delicious feeling of being alive, of having penetrated the veil which hides beauty and the wonders of celestial vistas? It doesn’t matter, as there can be nothing but gratitude for even a glimpse of what exists for those who can become open to it Picture Quote #1

The truth is we never stop being children, terrible children covered in sores and knotty veins and tumors and age spots, but ultimately children, in other words we never stop clinging to life because we are life Picture Quote #1

To read is to surrender oneself to an endless displacement of curiosity and desire from one sentence to another, from one action to another, from one level of a text to another. The text unveils itself before us, but never allows itself to be possessed; and instead of trying to possess it we should take pleasure in its teasing Picture Quote #1

Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance Picture Quote #1

Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to the eyes. Silently and imperceptibly, as we wake or sleep, we grow strong or we grow weak, and at last some crisis shows us what we have become Picture Quote #1

Penetrate deeply in the secret existence of anyone about you, even of the man or woman whom you count happiest, and you will come upon things they spend all their efforts to hide. Fair as the exterior may be, if you go in, you will find bare places, heaps of rubbish that can never be taken away, cold hearths, desolate altars, and windows veiled with cobwebs Picture Quote #1

Forget about enlightenment. Sit down wherever you are and listen to the wind that is singing in your veins. Feel the love, the longing and the fear in your bones. Open your heart to who you are, right now, not who you would like to be. Not the saint you’re striving to become. But the being right here before you, inside you, around you. All of you is holy. You’re already more and less than whatever you can know. Breathe out, look in, let go Picture Quote #1

I’d always thought that my awkwardness was a thin veil disguising the real me. The me that was funny and could write songs that touched people. The me that would one day find some beautiful, intelligent boy who’d recognize me as his soul mate. The me who was secretly pretty and stylish if only someone would lift the veil and see. But I was beginning to suspect that underneath the awkwardness there was just more awkwardness and not much else. And that would explain why I stood in a room full of people and felt like the loneliest girl in the world Picture Quote #1

My poems are more my silence than my speech. Just as music is a kind of quiet. Sounds are needed only to unveil the various layers of silence Picture Quote #1

I think every discovery of the world plunges us into jubilation, a radical amazement that tears apart the veil of triviality Picture Quote #1

Forget about enlightenment. Sit down wherever you are. And listen to the wind singing in your veins Picture Quote #1

True, I used to see a lot of hope. I saw men tear down the veils behind which the truth had been hidden. But then the same men, when they have power in their hands at last, began to find the veils useful. They made many more. Life has not changed. Only some people have been growing, becoming different, that is all. After a youth spent fighting the white man, why should not the president discover as he grows older that his real desire has been to be like the white governor himself, to live above all the blackness in the big old slave castle? Picture Quote #1

There aren’t many things as therapeutic as smiles and laughter. Whenever you look at things in a lighter vein, it shows that your heart is in the right place Picture Quote #1

Coyness is a rather comically pathetic fault, a miscalculation in which, by trying to veil the ego, we let it appear stark naked Picture Quote #1

The only ones to profit from illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing are the owners of the fishing fleets who remain hidden behind veils of corporate secrecy Picture Quote #1
