Stone Quotes (page 14)

We're a crowd, a swarm. We think in groups, travel in armies. Armies carry the gene for self-destruction. One bomb is never enough. The blur of technology, this is where the oracles plot their wars. Because now comes the introversion. Father Teilhard knew this, the omega point. A leap out of our biology. Ask yourself this question. Do we have to be human forever? Consciousness is exhausted. Back now to inorganic matter. This is what we want. We want to be stones in a field. Don DeLillo
Then Aragorn stooped and looked in her face, and it was indeed white as a lily, cold as frost, and hard as graven stone. But he bent and kissed her on the brow, and called her softly, saying:'owyn omund's daughter, awake! For your enemy has passed away!'- Aragorn & owyn J. R. R. Tolkien
She could talk. If she was a sphinx she could have talked, if she was a stone she could have talked. I wondered when she'd get tired and leave. Even after I stopped listening it was like being battered with tiny pingpong balls. Charles Bukowski
And this out life exempt from public hauntFinds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, Sermons in stones and good in everything.I would not change it. William Shakespeare
All mists curl off the roof of my being. That confidence I shall keep to mydying day. Like a long wave, like a roll of heavy waters, he went over me, his devastating presence - dragging me open, laying bare the pebbleson the shore of my soul. It was humiliating; I was turned to small stones. Virginia Woolf
The stone is strong. Bran told himself, the roots of the trees go deep, and under the ground the Kings of Winter sit their thrones. So long as those remained, Winterfell remained. It was not dead, just broken. Like me, he thought. I'm not dead either. George R. R. Martin
Salman Rushdie quote: "Too many people spouting too many words, and in the end those..."
Too many people spouting too many words, and in the end those words will turn to bullets and stones. Salman Rushdie
Sometimes complex and difficult moral choices are decided less by reason and by right than by sentiment. Perhaps such decisions are paving stones on the road to Hell; if so, my route is well paved, and the welcoming committee all ready knows my name. Dean Koontz
William Shakespeare quote: "You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!"
You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things! William Shakespeare
Jodi Picoult quote: "But once you throw a stone, there are ripples in the pond,..."
But once you throw a stone, there are ripples in the pond, even if you remove the rock. Jodi Picoult

Ray Bradbury quote: "Kill two birds with one stone, feed the homeless to the hungry."
Kill two birds with one stone, feed the homeless to the hungry. Ray Bradbury
Found in a small stone cave bitten from the roadside, stitchless save for his great outsized boots and a plague of flies, fat on the human scrappage of dinners long past, Toad squatted in the slitted stomach of a warm child, eating loudly the face of her hapless, headless father, who sat a good foot off the ground impaled up the ass on a pointed post. Nick Cave
We cannot know his legendary headwith eyes like ripening fruit. And yet his torsois still suffused with brilliance from inside, like a lamp, in which his gaze, now turned to low, gleams in all its power. Otherwisethe curved breast could not dazzle you so, nor coulda smile run through the placid hips and thighsto that dark center where procreation flared. Otherwise this stone would seem defacedbeneath the translucent cascade of the shouldersand would not glisten like a wild beast's fur: would... Rainer Maria Rilke
There is a Hand to turn the time, Though thy Glass today be run, Till the Light hath brought the Towers low. Find the last poor Preterite one . . . Till the Riders sleep by ev'ry road, All through our crippl'd Zone, With a face in ev'ry Mountainside. And a Soul in ev'ry stone. Now Everybody - Thomas Pynchon
