Greater Quotes (page 42)

If only it were possible for us to see farther than our knowledge reaches, and even a little beyond the outworks of our presentiment, perhaps we would bear our sadnesses with greater trust than we have in our joys. Rainer Maria Rilke
Love as education is one of the great powers of the world, but it hangs in a delicate suspension; it achieves its harmony as seldom as does love by the senses. Frustrated, it creates even greater havoc, for like all love it is a madness. Thornton Wilder
R. A. Salvatore quote: "A span of a few heartbeats can make for a greater memory than..."
A span of a few heartbeats can make for a greater memory than the sum of a mundane year.-Catti-brie R. A. Salvatore
Poets to ComePOETS to come! orators, singers, musicians to come! Not to-day is to justify me, and answer what I am for; But you, a new brood, native, athletic, continental, greater than before known, Arouse! Arousefor you must justify meyou must answer. I myself but write one or two indicative words for the future, I but advance a moment, only to wheel and hurry back in the darkness. I am a man who, sauntering along, without fully stopping, turns a casual look upon you, and then averts his... Walt Whitman
You will never have a greater or lesser dominion than that over yourself. The height of a man’s success is gauged by his self-mastery: the depth of failure by his self-abandonment. He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others. Leonardo da Vinci

Who is the greater criminal: he who robs a bank or he who founds one? (Three Penny Opera) Kurt Weill
With you a part of me hath passed away; For in the peopled forest of my mind A tree made leafless by this wintry wind Shall never don again its green array. Chapel and fireside, country road and bay, Have something of their friendliness resigned; Another, if I would, I could not find, And I am grown much older in a day. But yet I treasure in my memory Your gift of charity, and young hearts ease, And the dear honour of your amity; For these once mine, my life is rich with these. And I scarce... George Santayana
Kwame Nkrumah quote: "The forces that unite us are intrinsic and greater than the..."
The forces that unite us are intrinsic and greater than the superimposed influences that keep us apart. Kwame Nkrumah
Dante Alighieri quote: "There is no greater sorrow. Than to recall a happy time. When..."
There is no greater sorrow. Than to recall a happy time. When miserable. Dante Alighieri
The fantastic advances in the field of electronic communication constitute a greater danger to the privacy of the individual. Earl Warren
For when God is said by these things to try men and prove them, to see what is in their hearts and whether they will keep His commandments or no, we are not to understand, that it is for His own information, or that He may obtain evidence Himself of their sincerity (for he needs no trials for His information); but chiefly for their conviction, and to exhibit evidence to their consciences...So when God tempted or tried Abraham with that difficult command of offering up his son, it was not for... Jonathan Edwards
Loren Eiseley quote: "When man becomes greater than nature, nature, which gave us..."
When man becomes greater than nature, nature, which gave us birth, will respond. Loren Eiseley
Some religions draw by force of arms; He would draw by force of love. The attraction would not be His words, but Himself. It was His Person around which His teaching centered; not His teaching around which He would be remembered. 'Greater love than this no man hath' - that was the secret of His magnetism. Fulton J. Sheen
It was always dear to me, this solitary hill, and this hedgerow here, that closes out my view, from so much of the ultimate horizon. But sitting here, and watching here, in thought, I create interminable spaces, greater than human silences, and deepestquiet, where the heart barely fails to terrify. When I hear the wind, blowing among these leaves, I go on to compare that infinite silencewith this voice, and I remember the eternaland the dead seasons, and the living present, and its sound, so... Giacomo Leopardi
Do you ever sit back and wonder what it all means? Whether this is it or if there's something greater out there? Or if you were meant for something better? Nicholas Sparks
