Text Quotes
And the dreams so rich in color. How else would death call you? Waking in the cold dawn it all turned to ash instantly. Like certain ancient frescoes entombed for centuries suddenly exposed to the day  (Centuries Quotes) There are many great authors of the past who have survived centuries of oblivion and neglect, but it is still an open question whether they will be able to survive an entertaining version of what they have to say  (Centuries Quotes) The wood nymph instructors left me in the dust. They told me not to worry about it. They’d had centuries of practice running away from lovesick gods. But still, it was a little humiliating to be slower than a tree  (Centuries Quotes) Make a spurious division of one process into two, forget that you have done it, and then puzzle for centuries as to how the two get together  (Centuries Quotes) Trapped for days, years, centuries maybe. Dead, but not allowed to die. Alive, but as good as dead. So alone that anyone, anything no matter how loathsome would be welcome  (Centuries Quotes) They’ve been stealing mortals away for centuries, but they can’t have you  (Centuries Quotes) He stepped into the morning feeling more alive than he’d felt in months. Hold fast and believe in me, love, he whispered across the centuries. Because love and belief were serious magic in and of themselves  (Centuries Quotes) Books are like seeds. They can lie dormant for centuries and then flower in the most unpromising soil  (Centuries Quotes) I understood that centuries of chains and lashes will not kill the spirit of man nor the sense of truth within him  (Centuries Quotes) A person’s shadow stood for his legacy, his impact on the world. Some people cast hardly any shadow at all. Some cast long, deep shadows that endured for centuries  (Centuries Quotes) My revenge is just begun! I spread it over centuries, and time is on my side  (Centuries Quotes) The centuries are sprinkled with rare magic with divine creatures who help us get past the common and extraordinary ills that beset us  (Centuries Quotes) Why use up the forests which were centuries in the making and the mines which required ages to lay down, if we can get the equivalent of forest and mineral products in the annual growth of the hemp fields?  (Centuries Quotes) Don’t let yourself be weighed down by what other people think, because in a few years, in a few decades, or in a few centuries, that way of thinking will have changed. Live now what others will only live in the future  (Centuries Quotes) I could well imagine that I might have lived in former centuries and there encountered questions I was not yet able to answer; that I had been born again because I had not fulfilled the task given to me  (Centuries Quotes) In democratic centuries, on the contrary, when the duties of each individual toward the species are much clearer, devotion toward one man becomes rarer: the bond of human affections is extended and loosened  (Centuries Quotes) We need a kind of feminism that aims not just to assimilate into the institutions that men have created over the centuries, but to infiltrate and subvert them  (Centuries Quotes) The first man to see an illusion by which men have flourished for centuries surely stands in a lonely place  (Centuries Quotes) I invented nothing new, I simply assembled the discoveries of other men behind whom there was centuries of work  (Centuries Quotes) In the name of celibacy, sex has been repressed for centuries and you have become just full of sexuality. Rather than transcending it you are boiling within  (Centuries Quotes) I have sometimes almost wished it had been my destiny to be born two or three centuries hence  (Centuries Quotes) Before we can study the central issues of life today, we must destroy the prejudices and fallacies born of previous centuries  (Centuries Quotes) Opera singing is in every way of inestimable value; a real heritage for all mankind that has been reached over centuries of studies, attempts, flights of the spirit  (Centuries Quotes) For centuries the death penalty, often accompanied by barbarous refinements, has been trying to hold crime in check; yet crime persists. Why? Because the instincts that are warring in man are not, as the law claims, constant forces in a state of equilibrium  (Centuries Quotes) A good aphorism is too hard for the tooth of time, and is not worn away by all the centuries, although it serves as food for every epoch. Hence it is the greatest paradox in literature, the imperishable in the midst of change, the nourishment which always remains highly valued, as salt does, and never becomes stupid like salt  (Centuries Quotes) There are no stories without meaning. And I am one of those men who can find it even when others fail to see it. Afterwards the story becomes the book of the living, like a blaring trumpet that raises from the tomb those who have been dust for centuries  (Centuries Quotes) Wine lovers have known for centuries that decanting wine before serving it often improves its flavor. Whatever the dominant process, the traditional decanter is a rather pathetic tool to accomplish it. A few years ago, I found I could get much better results by using an ordinary kitchen blender  (Centuries Quotes) I wish I was a despot that I might save the noble, the beautiful trees that are daily falling sacrifice to the cupidity of their owners, or the necessity of the poor. The unnecessary felling of a tree, perhaps the growth of centuries, seems to me a crime little short of murder  (Centuries Quotes) You forget everything. The hours slip by. You travel in your chair through centuries you seem seem to see before you, your thoughts are caught up in the story, dallying with the details or following the course of the plot, you enter into characters, so that it seems as if it were your own heart beating beneath their costumes  (Centuries Quotes) Young men go to war. Sometimes because they have to, sometimes because they want to. Always, they feel they are supposed to. This comes from the sad, layered stories of life, which over the centuries have seen courage confused with picking up arms, and cowardice confused with laying them down  (Centuries Quotes)
