Supreme Quotes (page 8)

Freedom was my first great desire. The second, which remains hidden within me to this day, tormenting me, was the desire for sanctity. Hero together with saint: such is mankind's supreme model. Nikos Kazantzakis
Eroticism is first and foremost a thirst for otherness. And the supernatural is the supreme otherness. This is perhaps the most noble aim of poetry, to attach ourselves to the world around us, to turn desire into love, to embrace, finally what always evades us, what is beyond, but what is always there? the unspoken, the spirit, the soul. Octavio Paz
I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals; I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object. Roland Barthes
For the man in the paddock, whose duty is is to sweep up manure, the supreme terror is the possibility of a world without horses. To tell him that it is disgusting to spend one’s life shoveling up hot turds is a piece of imbecility. A man can get to love shit if his livelihood depends on it, if his happiness is involved. Henry Miller
You are my brother and I love you. I love you worshipping in your church, kneeling in your temple, and praying in your mosque. You and I and all are children of one religion, for the varied paths of religion are but the fingers of the loving hand of the Supreme Being, extended to all, offering completeness of spirit to all, anxious to receive all. Khalil Gibran
Now a work of art is a work of nature, but it is a work of human nature. It is a work of the mind: and it's a work of the mind in circumstances for an occasion which, to which, for which, and which it may be supremely natural and simple and effective."The Nature of Art" December 19, 1954 Frank Lloyd Wright
Wallace Stevens quote: "I like Rhine wine, blue grapes, good cheese, endive and lots..."
I like Rhine wine, blue grapes, good cheese, endive and lots of books, etc., etc., etc., as much as I like supreme fiction. Wallace Stevens
David Hume quote: "Reading and sauntering and lounging and dosing, which I call..."
Reading and sauntering and lounging and dosing, which I call thinking, is my supreme Happiness. David Hume
I shall now call myself; I shall now call. In the forest of my heart, seeing myself, I shall love myself and love myself. I shall be my own quest, My absolute wealth. The journey of light supreme will commence. In the heart of freedom. Sri Chinmoy
Whereas God, for reasons of His own, sometimes chooses to let the machine answer. The Supreme Being is unavailable to come to the phone at this time, but He wants you to know what your call is important to Him. In the meantime, for sins of pride, press one. For avarice, press two... Richard Russo
Education is free. Freedoom of education shall be enjoyed under the condition fixed by law and under the supreme control of the state Karl Marx
Brian Michael Bendis quote: "Please don't be dead. Because then I'd have to be the Sorcerer..."
Please don't be dead. Because then I'd have to be the Sorcerer Supreme and there's no way I could rock the 'stache. Brian Michael Bendis
This is the most enormous extension of vision of which life is capable: the projection of itself into other lives. This is the lonely, magnificent power of humanity. It is . . . the supreme epitome of the reaching out. Loren Eiseley
forget the past, for it is gone from your domain! forget the future, for it is beyond your reach! control the present! Live supremely well now! This is the way of the wise... Paramahansa Yogananda
The supreme mystery of despotism, its prop and stay, is to keep men in a state of deception, and with the specious title of religion to cloak the fear by which they must be held in check, so that they will fight for their servitude as if for salvation. Baruch Spinoza
