Shared Quotes (page 46)

I want to turn the whole thing upside down. I'll find the things they say just can't be found. I'll share the love I find with everyone. We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song. I don't want this feeling to go away. Jack Johnson
So the city became the material expression of a particular loss of innocence? not sexual or political innocence but somehow a shared dream of what a city might at its best prove to be? its inhabitants became, and have remained, an embittered and amnesiac race, wounded but unable to connect through memory to the moment of injury, unable to summon the face of their violator. Thomas Pynchon
Who's this—alone with stone and sky? It's only my old dog and I— It's only him; it's only me; Alone with stone and grass and tree. What share we most—we two together? Smells, and awareness of the weather. What is it makes us more than dust? My trust in him; in me his trust. Siegfried Sassoon
Henri Matisse quote: "for whether we want to or not, we belong to our time and we..."
...for whether we want to or not, we belong to our time and we share in its opinions, its feelings, even its delusions. Henri Matisse
At the end of the day, no amount of investing, no amount of clean electrons, no amount of energy efficiency will save the natural world if we are not paying attention to it - if we are not paying attention to all the things that nature give us for free: clean air, clean water, breathtaking vistas, mountains for skiing, rivers for fishing, oceans for sailing, sunsets for poets, and landscapes for painters. What good is it to have wind-powered lights to brighten the night if you can't see... Thomas Friedman
Alice Hoffman quote: "My grief was cold. It was nothing to share. It was nothing to..."
My grief was cold. It was nothing to share. It was nothing to speak about, nothing to feel. Alice Hoffman
The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure. Albert Einstein
We'd just shared the last beer and slung the empty can out the window at a stop sign and were just waiting back to get the feel of the day, swimming in that kind of tasty drowsiness that comes over you after a day of going hard at something you enjoy doing -- half sunburned and half drunk and keeping awake only because you wanted to savor the taste as long as you could. Ken Kesey
If the worker and his boss enjoy the same television program and visit the same resort places, if the typist is as attractively made up as the daughter of her employer, if the Negro owns a Cadillac, if they all read the same newspaper, then this assimilation indicates not the disappearance of classes, but the extent to which the needs and satisfactions that serve the preservation of the Establishment are shared by the underlying population. Herbert Marcuse
Erich Fromm quote: "There is nothing inhuman, evil, or irrational which does not..."
There is nothing inhuman, evil, or irrational which does not give some comfort, provided it is shared by a group. Erich Fromm
How strange that we should ordinarily feel compelled to hide our wounds when we are all wounded! Community requires the ability to expose our wounds and weaknesses to our fellow creatures. It also requires the ability to be affected by the wounds of others... But even more important is the love that arises among us when we share, both ways, our woundedness. M. Scott Peck
The belief that a person has a share in an unknown life to which his or her love may win us admission is, of all the prerequisites of love, the one which it values most highly and which makes it set little store by all the rest. Marcel Proust
Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly. Only if you do that can you hope to make the reader feel every particle of what you, the writer, have known and feel compelled to share."---Forward to Kafka's Short stories Anne Rice
Quentin Crisp quote: "A fair share of anything is starvation diet to an egomaniac."
A fair share of anything is starvation diet to an egomaniac. Quentin Crisp
If I was to be their real teacher and guardian, I must touch their hearts, I must share their joys and sorrows, I must help them to solve the problems that faced them, and I must take along the right channel the surging aspirations of their youth. Mahatma Gandhi
