Shadow Quotes

In an age of computer manipulation, surrealism has become banal, a shadow of its former self Picture Quote #1

We have ignored this cancer for so long that the romance of environmental concern is already fading in the shadow of the grim realities of lakes, rivers and bays where all forms of life have been smothered by untreated wastes, and oceans which no longer provide us with food Picture Quote #1

Among human beings, a cat is merely a cat; among cats, a cat is a prowling shadow in a jungle Picture Quote #1

To see a shadow and think it is a tree that is a pity; but to see a tree and to think it a shadow can be fatal Picture Quote #1

Once learnt, this business of cooking was to prove an ever growing burden. It scarcely bears thinking about, the time and labour that man and womankind has devoted to the preparation of dishes that are to melt and vanish in a moment like smoke or a dream, like a shadow, and as a post that hastes by, and the air closes behind them, afterwards no sign where they went is to be found Picture Quote #1

Did you know? Did the cross cast a shadow on your cradle? Did you shudder each time your hammer struck a nail? How much heaven and how much earth were in this baby at his birth? Did you know, or did you wonder? Picture Quote #1

Writing is just having a sheet of paper, a pen and not a shadow of an idea of what you are going to say Picture Quote #1

My quest, through the magic of light and shadow, is to isolate, to simplify and to give emphasis to form with the greatest clarity. To indicate the ideal proportion, to reveal sculptural mass and the dominating spirit is my goal Picture Quote #1

Like a shadow that does not permit us to jump over it, but moves with us to maintain its proper distance, pollution is nature’s answer to culture. When we have learned to recycle pollution into potent information, we will have passed over completely into the new cultural ecology Picture Quote #1

It followed us during half of our orbit. We observed it on the light side, and when we entered the shadow side, it disappeared completely. It was an engineered structure, made from some type of metal, approximately 40 meters long with inner hulls. The object was narrow here and wider here, and inside there were openings. Some places had projections like small wings. The object stayed very close to us. We photographed it, and our photos showed it to be 23 to 28 meters away Picture Quote #1

Don’t depend too much on anyone in this world because even your own shadow leaves you when you are in darkness Picture Quote #1

Human beings are good, they have shadow, every single one of us has redeeming qualities and every single one of us has qualities that people can hold against us. That’s what makes us human Picture Quote #1

Chose? If you believe that I chose any part of the pitiful shadow of a life you see before you, you are very much mistaken. I chose glory and success. The box did not contain what was written on the lid Picture Quote #1

Every life has a death, and every light a shadow. Be content to stand in the light, and let the shadow fall where it will Picture Quote #1

Creatures of a day, what is any one? What is he not? Man is but a dream of a shadow. Yet when there comes as a gift of heaven a gleam of sunshine, there rest upon men a radiant light and, aye, a gentle life Picture Quote #1

I have gone through the most terrible affair that could possibly happen; only imagine, my shadow has gone mad; I suppose such a poor, shallow brain, could not bear much; he fancies that he has become a real man, and that I am his shadow Picture Quote #1

I wake up in the morning asking myself what can I do today, how can I help the world today. I believe in what I do beyond a shadow of a doubt. I gave my word to this tree and to all the people that my feet would not touch the ground until I had done everything in my power to make the world aware of this problem and to stop the destruction Picture Quote #1

I’d been told of all the things you’re meant to feel when your father dies. Sudden freedom, growing up, the end of dependence, the step into the sunlight when no one is taller than you and you’re in no one’s shadow. I know what I felt. Lonely Picture Quote #1

We are constantly telling ourselves what we most want to know, and at the same time are deaf to it. Why does envy have such a fierce bite? Why do we fall silent or get worried just as our story is about to spring out of our control and into its own life? Whose shadow falls across the page? Picture Quote #1

I get up and pace the room, as if I can leave my guilt behind me. But it tracks me as I walk, an ugly shadow made by myself Picture Quote #1

There is a name hidden in the shadow of my soul, where I read it night and day and no other eye sees it Picture Quote #1

If nations could overcome the mutual fear and distrust whose sombre shadow is now thrown over the world, and could meet with confidence and good will to settle their possible differences, they would easily be able to establish a lasting peace Picture Quote #1

Anybody who tries to change society without examining the family is trying to push a shadow without moving a statue Picture Quote #1

The savage who loves himself, his wife and child with quiet joy and glows with limited activity of his tribe as for his own life is in my opinion a more real being than that cultivated shadow who is enraptured with the shadow of the whole species Picture Quote #1

The word and the shadow of the word / makes a thing both itself and something else / till we are metaphors and not ourselves Picture Quote #1

Although the noise of the chattering clientele is much more significant than the topics of their chatter, it does finally constitute that type of social and indistinct expression that we refer to as rhubarb. The very particular volume in which people tell each other their news seems to generate all by itself that acoustic chiaroscuro, a sounding murk, in which every communication seems to lose its edges, truth projects the shadow of a lie, and a statement seems to resemble its opposite Picture Quote #1

A moving shadow means more to us than a body at rest. We are no longer taken in by a fixed grin. We know that only death has a rictus Picture Quote #1

Beyond the shadow of a doubt, food was more important than a woman’s suffering Picture Quote #1

Love, it’s such a night, laced with running water, irreparable, riddled with a million leaks. A night shaped like a shadow thrown by your absence. Every crack trickles, every overhang drips. The screech of nighthawks has been replaced by the splash of rain. The rain falls from the height of streetlights. Each drop contains its own shattering blue bulb Picture Quote #1

Stop in somebody’s shadow to rest and cool down, and you are lost. No one can make anyone else happy Picture Quote #1
