Exercising Quotes (page 8)

One important aspect of justice, Jose Miranda reminds us, involves the restoration of what has been stolen. Giving food to the hungry or clothing to the naked is not a charitable handout but an exercise in simple justice - restoring to the poor what is rightfully theirs, what has been taken from them unjustly. Robert McAfee Brown
Rules of living. Don't worry, eat three square meals a day, say your prayers, be courteous to your creditors, keep your digestion good, steer clear of biliousness, exercise, go slow and go easy. May be there are other things that your special case requires to make you happy, but my friend, these, i reckon, will give you a good life. Abraham Lincoln
Joseph Heller quote: "The country was in peril; he was jeopardizing his traditional..."
The country was in peril; he was jeopardizing his traditional rights of freedom and independence by daring to exercise them. Joseph Heller
People who exercise their freedom day after day, little by little, expand that freedom. People who do not will find that it withers until they are literally 'being lived.' [That is, until] they are acting out scripts written by parents, associates and society. Stephen Covey
Anarchists try to identify power structures. They urge those exercising power to justify themselves. This justification does not succeed most of the time. Noam Chomsky
Richard G. Scott quote: "Our Father expects you to learn how to obtain that divine help..."
Our Father expects you to learn how to obtain that divine help by exercising faith in Him and His Holy Son, Jesus Christ. Richard G. Scott
When a heroine is satisfied that she has exercised judgement with clear vision, moral principle, and common sense, she need not acquiesce to opposing viewpoints. Jane Austen
It is important and right that all privileges of the law be ours, but it is vastly more important that we be prepared for the exercise of those privileges. Booker T. Washington
As he took her hand she saw him look her over from head to foot, a gesture she recognized and that made her feel at home, but gave her always a faint feeling of superiority to whoever made it. If her person was property she could exercise whatever advantage was inherent in its ownership. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Michel de Montaigne quote: "The most fruitful and natural exercise for our minds is, in my..."
The most fruitful and natural exercise for our minds is, in my opinion, conversation. Michel de Montaigne
Scott Adams quote: "If I liked food and disliked exercise as much as a 400 pound..."
If I liked food and disliked exercise as much as a 400 pound guy, I'd be a 400 pound guy. Scott Adams
Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties and a field for their efforts as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer; and it is narrow-minded in their more privileged fellow-creatures to say that they ought to confine themselves to making puddings and knitting stockings, to playing on the piano and embroidering bags. Charlotte Bronte
When I speak of life and love as expanding with age, sex seems the least important thing. At any age we grow by the enlarging of consciousness, by learning a new language, or a new art or craft (gardening?) that implies a new way of looking at the universe. Love is one of the great enlargers of the person because it requires us to "take in" the stranger and to understand him, and to exercise restraint and tolerance as well as imagination to make the relationship work. May Sarton
Isaac Asimov quote: "the advance of civilisation is nothing but an exercise in the..."
...the advance of civilisation is nothing but an exercise in the limiting of privacy. Isaac Asimov
There was no possibility of taking a walk that day. We had been wandering, indeed, in the leafless shrubbery an hour in the morning; but since dinner (Mrs. Reed, when there was no company, dined early) the cold winter wind had brought with it clouds so sombre, and a rain so penetrating, that further out-door exercise was now out of the question. Charlotte Bronte
