Just Quotes (page 470)

And what is true education? It is awakening a love for truth; giving a just sense of duty; opening the eyes of the soul to the great purpose and end of life. It is not so much giving words, as thoughts; or mere maxims, as living principles. It is not teaching to be honest, because 'honesty is the best policy'; but because it is right. It is teaching the individual to love the good, for the sake of the good; to be virtuous in action because one is so in heart; to love and serve God supremely,... David O. McKay
I like my smock. You can tell the quality of the artist by the quality of his smock. Actually, I just like to say smock. Smock smock smock smock smock smock. Bill Watterson
Starved for affection, terrified of abandonment, I began to wonder if sex was really just an excuse to look deeply into another human being's eyes. Doug Coupland
Nathanael West quote: "In the king’s bed is always found, just before it becomes a..."
In the king’s bed is always found, just before it becomes a museum piece, the droppings of the black sheep. Nathanael West
Tom Waits quote: "Oh I don't mind going to weddings, just as long as it's not my..."
Oh I don't mind going to weddings, just as long as it's not my own... Tom Waits
A beautiful and binding morning. The world outside begins to breathe. See clouds arriving without warning. I need you here to shelter me. If I could make these moments endless. If I could stop the winds of change. If we just keep our eyes wide open. Then everything would stay the same. And I know that only time will tell me how. We'll carry on without each other. So keep me awake for every moment. Give us more time to be this way. We can't stay like this forever. But I can have you next to me... Josh Groban
Ernest Hemingway quote: "The world was not wheeling anymore. It was just very clear and..."
The world was not wheeling anymore. It was just very clear and bright and inclined to blur at the edges. Ernest Hemingway
This is the gift of your species and this is the danger, because you do not choose to control your imaginings. You imagine wonderful things and you imagine terrible things, and you take no responsibility for the choice. You say you have inside you both the power of good and the power of evil, the angel and the devil, but in truth you have just one thing inside you - the ability to imagine. Michael Crichton
Novelists have, on the average, about the same IQs as the cosmetic consultants at Bloomingdale’s department store. Our power is patience. We have discovered that writing allows even a stupid person to seem halfway intelligent, if only that person will write the same thought over and over again, improving it just a little bit each time. It is a lot like inflating a blimp with a bicycle pump. Anybody can do it. All it takes is time. Kurt Vonnegut
No, I was just thinking about Chernobyl. That's like a scream from the universe warning us, but we're not paying any attention. Christopher Durang
I'm not blessed, or merciful. I'm just me. I've got a job to do, and I do it. Listen: even as we're talking, I'm there for old and young, innocent and guilty, those who die together and those who die alone. I'm in cars and boats and planes; in hospitals and forests and abbatoirs. For some folks death is a release, and for others death is an abomination, a terrible thing. But in the end, I'm there for all of them. Neil Gaiman
Ram Dass quote: "We're all just walking each other home."
We're all just walking each other home. Ram Dass
George W. Bush quote: "Wait a minute. What did you just say? You're predicting..."
Wait a minute. What did you just say? You're predicting $4-a-gallon gas? ... That's interesting. I hadn't heard that. George W. Bush
Euripides quote: "The company of just and righteous men is better than wealth..."
The company of just and righteous men is better than wealth and a rich estate. Euripides
Greta Garbo quote: "Every one of us lives this life just once, if we are honest,..."
Every one of us lives this life just once, if we are honest, to live once is enough. Greta Garbo
