Us Quotes (page 65)

There is a certain animal vitality in most of us which carries us through any trouble but the absolutely overwhelming. Only a fool has no sorrow, only an idiot has no grief - but then only a fool and an idiot will let grief and sorrow ride him down into the grave. Edward Abbey
Emotions are what make us human. Make us real. The word 'emotion' stands for energy in motion. Be truthful about your emotions, and use your mind and emotions in your favor, not against yourself. Robert Kiyosaki
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "Curse us and crush us, my precious is lost!"
Curse us and crush us, my precious is lost! J. R. R. Tolkien
L. M. Montgomery quote: "We are never half so interesting when we have learned that..."
We are never half so interesting when we have learned that language is given us to enable us to conceal our thoughts. L. M. Montgomery
Let the children have their night of fun and laughter. Let the gifts of Father Christmas delight their play. Let us grown-ups share to the full in their unstinted pleasures before we turn again to the stern task and the formidable years that lie before us, resolved that, by our sacrifice and daring, these same children shall not be robbed of their inheritance or denied their right to live in a free and decent world." Winston Churchill Christmas Eve Message, 1941 as printed in "In the Dark... David McCullough
We have been led to imagine all sorts of things infinitely more marvelous than the imagining of poets and dreamers of the past. It shows that the imagination of nature is far, far greater than the imagination of man. For instance, how much more remarkable it is for us all to be stuck-half of us upside down-by a mysterious attraction, to a spinning ball that has been swinging in space for billions of years, than to be carried on the back of an elephant supported on a tortoise swimming in a... Richard P. Feynman
Orson Scott Card quote: "Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be..."
Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be brilliant on its behalf. Orson Scott Card
If excitement is a mechanism our Creator uses for His own amusement, love is something that belongs to us alone and enables us to flee the Creator. Love is our freedom. Love lies beyond "Es Muss sein! Milan Kundera
that you would not anticipate misery since the evils you dread as coming upon you may perhaps never reach you at least they are not yet come Thus some things torture us more than they ought, some before they ought and some which ought never to torture us at all. We heighten our pain either by presupposing a cause or anticipation Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Our minds are susceptible to the influence of external voices telling us what we require to be satisfied, voices that may drown out the faint sounds emitted by our souls and distract us from the careful, arduous task of accurately naming our priorities. Alain de Botton
I believe that we should only read those books that bite and sting us. If a book does not rouse us with a blow then why read it? Franz Kafka
Little soul, gentle and drifting, guest and companion of my body, now you will dwell below in pallid places, stark and bare; there you will abandon your play of yore. But one moment still, let us gaze together on these familiar shores, on these objects which doubtless we shall not see again....Let us try, if we can, to enter into death with open eyes... Marguerite Yourcenar
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "To love those who despise us, and to give one's hand to the..."
To love those who despise us, and to give one's hand to the phantom who tries to frighten us? Friedrich Nietzsche
Finding the real joy of Christmas comes not in the hurrying and the scurrying to get more done, nor is it found in the purchasing of gifts. We find real joy when we make the Savior the focus of the season. We can keep Him in our thoughts and in our lives as we go about the work He would have us perform here on earth. At this time, particularly, let us follow His example as we love and serve our fellowman. Thomas S. Monson
Mother Teresa quote: "God gives us things to share, God doesn't give us things to..."
God gives us things to share, God doesn't give us things to hold... Mother Teresa
