Condition Quotes (page 31)

Love is that condition in the human spirit so profound that it empowers us to develop courage; to trust that courage and build bridges with it; to trust those bridges and cross over them so we can attempt to reach each other. Maya Angelou
There's no denying his resemblance to the Rodin bronze - the slender, effortless muscularity of youth, the extravagant nonchalance of it; that sense that beauty is in fact the natural human condition and not the rarest of mutations. Michael Cunningham
When we meet somebody whose separate tunnel-reality is obviously far different from ours, we are a bit frightened and always disoriented. We tend to think they are mad, or that they are crooks trying to con us in some way, or that they are hoaxers playing a joke. Yet it is neurologically obvious that no two brains have the same genetically-programmed hard wiring, the same imprints, the same conditioning, the same learning experiences. We are all living in separate realities. That is why... Robert Anton Wilson
So much of adolescence is an ill-defined dying,An intolerable waiting,A longing for another place and time,Another condition. Theodore Roethke
For me, books were not the containers of words so much as the words themselves, and the value of a given book was determined by its spiritual quality rather than its physical condition. Paul Auster
Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality [will] have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence. Karl Marx
Stephen Covey quote: "We see the world, not as it is, but as we areor, as we are..."
We see the world, not as it is, but as we areor, as we are conditioned to see it. Stephen Covey
I agree to the conditions, Angel; because you know best what my punishment ought to be; only - only - don't make it more than I can bear! Thomas Hardy
and new conditions of existence will spring up, to which other men will grow just as accustomed, and I shall not know about them, for I shall be no more! Leo Tolstoy
Then the writing became so fluid that I sometimes felt as if I were writing for the sheer pleasure of telling a story, which may be the human condition that most resembles levitation. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
C. S. Lewis quote: "See the bear in his own den before you judge of his conditions."
See the bear in his own den before you judge of his conditions. C. S. Lewis
In the fairy tale, an incomprehensible happiness rests upon an incomprehensible condition. A box is opened and all evils fly out. A word is forgotten and cities perish. A lamp is lit and love flies away. An apple is eaten and the hope of God is gone. Gilbert K. Chesterton
The Man has a branch office in each of our brains, his corporate emblem is a white albatross, each local rep has a cover known as the Ego, and their mission in this world is Bad Shit. We do know what's going on, and we let it go on. As long as we can see them, stare at them, those massively moneyed, once in a while. As long as they allow us a glimpse, however rarely. We need that. And they know it - how often, under what conditions... Thomas Pynchon
Sue Grafton quote: "In my opinion, there's no condition in life that can't be..."
In my opinion, there's no condition in life that can't be ameliorated by a dose of junk food. Sue Grafton
The very condition of Woman is so subject to Hazard, so complex, and so grievous, that to place her at one moment is but to displace her at the next. Djuna Barnes
