Centering Quotes

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar quote: "Center is a very tough position to play."
Center is a very tough position to play. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
I am the nothingness around which this movement spins, the only reason it spins, not that the center exists except in the fact that all circles have a center. I, really I, am the well without walls, but with the sliminess of its walls, the center of everything with the nothingness around it. Fernando Pessoa
Richard Russo quote: "I don't think America has ever had a center the way London is..."
I don't think America has ever had a center the way London is the center of England or Dublin is the center of Ireland. Richard Russo
Black Elk quote: "At the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit. And..."
At the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit. And that center is really everywhere. It is within each of us. Black Elk
The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that its center is really everywhere, it is within each of us. Black Elk
Long ago it took a Copernicus to tell a provincial world that this planet was not the center of the universe. Some selfish moderns need a Copernican reminder that they are not the center of the universe either! Neal A. Maxwell
Stories are webs, interconnected strand to strand, and you follow each story to the center, because the center is the end. Each person is a strand of the story. Neil Gaiman
I wonder if I am capable of being somebody’s sun, somebody’s everything. Am I centered enough now to be the center of somebody else’s life? Elizabeth Gilbert
Finding the center of strength within ourselves is in the long run the best contribution we can make to our fellow men. ... One person with indigenous inner strength exercises a great calming effect on panic among people around him. This is what our society needs? not new ideas and inventions; important as these are, and not geniuses and supermen, but persons who can "be", that is, persons who have a center of strength within themselves. Rollo May
I don't even feel as if I'm the center of my own world, so how am I supposed to feel as though I'm the center of anyone else's? Nick Hornby
Our culture made a virtue of living only as extroverts. We discouraged the inner journey, the quest for a center. So we lost our center and have to find it again. Anais Nin
Philip Roth quote: "Oh, to be a center fielder, a center fielder- and nothing more"
Oh, to be a center fielder, a center fielder- and nothing more Philip Roth
If a book were written all in numbers, it would be true. It would be just. Nothing said in words ever came out quite even. Things in words got twisted and ran together, instead of staying straight and fitting together. But underneath the words, at the center, like the center of the Square, it all came out even. Everything could change, yet nothing would be lost. If you saw the numbers you could see that, the balance, the pattern. You saw the foundations of the world. And they were solid. Ursula K. Le Guin
Alfred Noyes quote: "The universe is neither centered on earth nor the sun. It is..."
The universe is neither centered on earth nor the sun. It is centered on God. Alfred Noyes
I think that storytelling and creation are very close to what the center of what magic is about. I think not just for me, but for most of the cultures that have had a concept of magic, then the manipulation of language, and words, and thus of stories and fictions, has been very close to the center of it all. Alan Moore
