Anime Quotes (page 54)

Wartime lipstick is necessarily cobbled together from whatever tailings and gristle were left over once all the good stuff was use to grease propeller shafts. A florid and cloying scent is needed to conceal its unspeakable mineral and animal origins. It is the smell of War. Neal Stephenson
And what if all of animated nature. Be but organic harps diversely framed, That tremble into thought, as o'er them sweeps. Plastic and vast, one intellectual breeze, At once the Soul of each, and God of All? Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Arthur Schopenhauer quote: "Men are the devils of the earth, and the animals are its..."
Men are the devils of the earth, and the animals are its tormented souls. Arthur Schopenhauer
So much in a relationship changes when a partner is seriously ill, helpless yet blameless, and indefatigably needy. I felt old. [p. 99] The animal part of him in pain accepted my caring. But the part of himself watching himself in that pain didn't believe I could ever respect him again. None of this crossed my mind. I couldn't risk knowing it. No one could and continue caregiving. They'd feel so unappreciated and wronged that it would drive them away. [p. 100] Diane Ackerman
What absurd fellows you are, both of you! I wonder who it was defined man as a rational animal. It was the most premature definition ever given. Oscar Wilde
The unknown is generally taken to be terrible, not as the proverb would infer, from the inherent superstition of man, but because it so often is terrible. He who would tamper with the vast and secret forces that animate the world may well fall a victim to them. H. Rider Haggard
The day of my departure at length arrived. Clerval spent the last evening with us. He had endeavoured to persuade his father to permit him to accompany me and to become my fellow student, but in vain. His father was a narrow-minded trader, and saw idleness and ruin in the aspirations and ambition of his son. Henry deeply felt the misfortune of being debarred from a liberal education. He said little, but when he spoke I read in his kindling eye and in his animated glance a restrained but firm... Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Hazel, like nearly all wild animals, was unaccustomed to look up at the sky. What he thought of as the sky was the horizon, usually broken by trees and hedges. Richard Adams
We were little animals, which is not to imply that by the end of the week we were tearing our tank tops off; just that, metaphorically speaking, we had begun to sniff each other's bottoms, and we did not find the odor entirely repellent. Nick Hornby
Doug Coupland quote: "Besides, animals don’t even have time. Only humans have time...."
Besides, animals don’t even have time. Only humans have time. It’s what makes us different. Doug Coupland
Kindness and compassion towards all living things is a mark of a civilized society. Conversely, cruelty, whether it is directed against human beings or against animals, is not the exclusive province of any one culture or community of people. Cesar Chavez
It infuriated him to think that there were still people in the state who believed in a loving and merciful God. There are mystics who are said to have experienced God directly. He was a mystic, too, and what he had experienced was vacancy--a complete certainty in the existence of a dying, cooling world, of human beings who had evolved from animals for no purpose at all. Graham Greene
Barry Lopez quote: "It does not demean men to want to be what they imagine the..."
It does not demean men to want to be what they imagine the wolf to be, but it does demean them to kill the animal for it. Barry Lopez
For it is said that humans are never satisfied, that you give them one thing and they want something more. And this is said in disparagement, whereas it is one of the greatest talents the species has and one that has made it superior to animals that are satisfied with what they have. John Steinbeck
It struck me that the chief obstacle to marital contentment was this perpetual gulf between the well-founded, commendable pessimism of women and the sheer dumb animal optimism of men, the latter a force more than any other responsible for the lamentable state of the world. Michael Chabon
