Cut Down Quotes

We proceeded systematically, village by village and we destroyed the houses, filled up the wells, blew down the towers, cut down the shady trees, burned the crops and broke the reservoirs in punitive devastation Picture Quote #1

I started inventing things, and then I couldn’t stop, like beavers, which I know about. People think they cut down trees so they can build dams, but in reality it’s because their teeth never stop growing, and if they didn’t constantly file them down by cutting through all of those trees, their teeth would start to grow into their own faces, which would kill them. That’s how my brain was Picture Quote #1

What really counted was the possibility of escape, a leap of freedom, out of the implacable ritual, a wild run for it that would give whatever chance for hope there was. Of course, hope meant being cut down on some street corner, as you ran like mad, by a random bullet. But when I really thought it through, nothing was going to allow me such a luxury. Everything was against it; I would just be caught up in the machinery again Picture Quote #1

Violence harms the one who does it as much as the one who receives it. You could cut down a tree with an axe. The axe does violence to the tree, and escapes unharmed. Is that how you see it? Wood is soft compared to steel, but the sharp steel is dulled as it chops, and the sap of the tree will rust and pit it. The mighty axe does violence to the helpless tree, and is harmed by it. So it is with men, though the harm is in the spirit Picture Quote #1

A grower of chrysanthemums awaited a visit from the emperor, who was coming to enjoy his blossoms, of which there were hundreds in bloom. The grower selected one magnificent specimen, then cut down all the others, leaving this one perfect flower. The emperor arrived and sat for several hours quietly gazing at this beautiful flower, letting its beauty have its way with him. Can you imagine being so caught up in appreciation of one flower that everything else fades into the background? Picture Quote #1

Dictatorships do cut down on rape, and pillage, not to mention sexual harassment, by the simple expedient of sending people to labour camps for life or cutting off their hands without a trial Picture Quote #1

I’ve cut down on a lot of stuff this summer, just so I can hang out and be a normal kid for a while Picture Quote #1

If you cut down a forest, it doesn’t matter how many sawmills you have if there are no more trees Picture Quote #1

So, we’re saying, if we can give developers and builders incentives to cut down on the regulatory barriers that are faced in this country, then we might be able to address the needs of affordable housing Picture Quote #1

Nixon is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump for a speech on conservation Picture Quote #1

I don’t cut down on food just for myself, but for society. I wish to inspire some sincere person, even only for one day, to please be moderate in their food and drink Picture Quote #1

The key is, to not think of death as an end, but as more of a very effective way to cut down on your expenses Picture Quote #1

Overcoming fear and worry can be accomplished by living a day at a time or even a moment at a time. Your worries will be cut down to nothing Picture Quote #1

There are vices which have no hold upon us, but in connection with others; and which, when you cut down the trunk, fall like the branches Picture Quote #1

A hypocrite is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump and make a speech for conservation Picture Quote #1

I noticed the bushes all around where I stood in my fight with the machine guns were all cut down. The bullets went over my head and on either side. But they never touched me Picture Quote #1

I hate to say it, but the older you get, you really do have to cut down on the amount you eat. Less food and less portions Picture Quote #1

I need to be more under control. I need to calm down a little bit so I can cut down on the little silly errors I get Picture Quote #1
