Doing Quotes (page 954)

Just as in the body, eye and ear develop as organs of perception, as senses for bodily processes, so does a man develop in himself soul and spiritual organs of perception through which the soul and spiritual worlds are opened to him. For those who do not have such higher senses, these worlds are dark and silent, just as the bodily world is dark and silent for a being without eyes and ears. Rudolf Steiner
It is true that words have power, and one of the things they are able to do is get out of someone’s mouth before the speaker has the chance to stop them. Terry Prachett
Mark Twain quote: "Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a..."

Robert Louis Stevenson quote: "To be feared of a thing and yet to do it, is what makes the..."
To be feared of a thing and yet to do it, is what makes the prettiest kind of a man. Robert Louis Stevenson
It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them... So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling... Aldous Huxley
Amelia Earhart quote: "Never interrupt someone doing something you said couldn't be..."
Never interrupt someone doing something you said couldn't be done. Amelia Earhart
Ouida quote: "He mistook, as the cleverest men often do mistake, in..."
He mistook, as the cleverest men often do mistake, in underrating the cruelty of women. Ouida
It is a merciful provision my dears, for it takes three or four women to get each man into, through, and out of the world. You are costly creatures, boys, and it is well that mothers, sisters, wives, and daughters love their duty and do it so well, or you would perish off the face of the earth,' said Mrs. Jo solemnl? Louisa May Alcott
Money is like gasoline during a road trip. You don’t want to run out of gas on your trip, but you’re not doing a tour of gas stations. Tim O'Reilly
Pablo Picasso quote: "That inspiration comes, does not depend on me. The only thing..."
That inspiration comes, does not depend on me. The only thing I can do is make sure it catches me working. Pablo Picasso
There are, it seems, two muses: the Muse of Inspiration, who gives us inarticulate visions and desires, and the Muse of Realization, who returns again and again to say "It is yet more difficult than you thought." This is the muse of form. It may be then that form serves us best when it works as an obstruction, to baffle us and deflect our intended course. It may be that when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work and when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun... Wendell Berry
It must be that people who read go on more macrocosmic and microcosmic trips – biblical god trips, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Ulysses, Finnegan’s Wake trips. Non-readers, what do they get? (They get the munchies.) Maxine Hong Kingston
Oscar Wilde quote: "All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath..."
All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Oscar Wilde
I'm worried that students will take their obedient place in society and look to become successful cogs in the wheel - let the wheel spin them around as it wants without taking a look at what they're doing. I'm concerned that students not become passive acceptors of the official doctrine that's handed down to them from the White House, the media, textbooks, teachers and preachers. Howard Zinn
Some guys step on a rake in the dark, and get mad and go punch somebody. Others step on a rake in the dark and fall down laughing at themselves. I know which kind of guy I'd rather be. So do my friends. Spider Robinson
