Expressions Quotes (page 44)

If you wish information and improvement from the knowledge of others, and yet at the same time express yourself as firmly fix'd in your present opinions, modest, sensible men, who do not love disputation, will probably leave you undisturbed in the possession of your error. Benjamin Franklin
Confucius quote: "Writing cannot express all words, words cannot encompass all..."
Writing cannot express all words, words cannot encompass all ideas. Confucius
We comfort ourselves by reliving memories of protection. Something closed must retain our memories, while leaving them their original value as images. Memories of the outside world will never have the same tonality as those of home and, by recalling these memories, we add to our store of dreams; we are never real historians, but always near poets, and our emotion is perhaps nothing but an expression of a poetry that was lost. Gaston Bachelard
For a moment, or a second, the pinched expressions of the cynical, world-weary, throat-cutting, miserable bastards we've all had to become disappears, when we're confronted with something as simple as a plate of food. Anthony Bourdain
Mark Twain quote: "A Russian imbues his polite things with a heartiness, both of..."
A Russian imbues his polite things with a heartiness, both of phrase and expression, that compels belief in their sincerity. Mark Twain
... all his faces were designed to express rage or loathing. Now that something had happened which really deserved a face, he had none to celebrate it with. As a kind of token, he made his Sex Life in Ancient Rome face. Kingsley Amis
Religious distress is at the same time the expression of real distress and the protest against real distress. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of a spiritless situation. It is the opium of the people. The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is required for their real happiness. The demand to give up the illusion about its condition is the demand to give up a condition which needs illusions. Karl Marx
Every form of happiness if one, every desire is driven by the same motor--by our love for a single value, for the highest potentiality of our own existence--and every achievement is an expression of it. Ayn Rand
Writing is an expression of the writer's own peculiar personality, could not help being so. Yet in reading great works one feels that the finished piece transcends the personal. All writers great and small must sometimes have felt that they have become part of what they wrote even more than it still remains a part of them. Eudora Welty
Aristotle quote: "To write well, express yourself like the common people, but..."
To write well, express yourself like the common people, but think like a wise man. Aristotle
I'm going to wake Peeta," I say."No, wait," says Finnick. "Let's do it together. Put our faces right in front of his."Well, there's so little opportunity for fun left in my life, I agree. We position ourselves on either side of Peeta, lean over until our faces are inches frim his nose, and give him a shake. "Peeta. Peeta, wake up," I say in a soft, singsong voice. His eyelids flutter open and then he jumps like we've stabbed him. "Aa!"Finnick and I fall back in the sand, laughing our heads... Suzanne Collins
My worthless self lives on at the bottom of every expression, like an indissoluble residue at the bottom of a glass from which only water was drunk. Fernando Pessoa
A flower is not better when it blooms than when it is merely a bud; at each stage it is the same thing? a flower in the process of expressing its potential. Paulo Coelho
Jane Austen quote: "My ideas flow so rapidly that I have not time to expressed them."
My ideas flow so rapidly that I have not time to expressed them. Jane Austen
Frantz Fanon quote: "A man who has a language consequently possesses the world..."
A man who has a language consequently possesses the world expressed and implied by that language. Frantz Fanon
