Discover Quotes

If we take the world’s enduring religions at their best, we discover the distilled wisdom of the human race Picture Quote #1

Nothing is lost that we do not first see as lost. Visions born of fear give birth to our failing. Visions born of hope give birth to our success. What is possible lives within us, and it only remains for us to discover it Picture Quote #1

A poet must discover that it’s his own story that is true, even if the truth is small indeed Picture Quote #1

It seems to me that we can’t explain all the truly awful things in the world like war and murder and brain tumors, and we can’t fix these things, so we look at the frightening things that are closer to us and we magnify them until they burst open. Inside is something that we can manage, something that isn’t as awful as it had a first seemed. It is a relief to discover that although there might be axe murderers and kidnappers in the world, most people seem a lot like us: sometimes afraid and sometimes brave, sometimes cruel and sometimes kind Picture Quote #1

…I go through a story for lies. I might discover the lie of trying to show off. Sometimes they’re lies of character. Sometimes they are lies of writing the most beautiful sentence in the world that has nothing to do with the story Picture Quote #1

Children, like animals use all their senses to discover the world. Then artists come along and discover it the same way... Or now and then we’ll hear from an artisit who’s never lost it Picture Quote #1

When people first discover beauty, they tend to linger. Even if they don’t at first recognize it for what it is Picture Quote #1

A young woman, newly wed, may find herself in the delightful position of wanting to do nothing without the company of her darling husband. She may indeed discover that she spends all her waking hours with her fellow to the exclusion of every other friend or family member. This is understandable, but wholly unacceptable, to society Picture Quote #1

When everything changes we learn who we really are. What’s really important. What we want most. We discover the truth in moments of disarray Picture Quote #1

Now what is history? It is the centuries of systematic explorations of the riddle of death, with a view to overcoming death. That’s why people discover mathematical infinity and electromagnetic waves, that’s why they write symphonies Picture Quote #1

I have this idea that every time we discover that the names we’re being called are somehow keeping us less than free, we need to come up with new names for ourselves, and that the names we give ourselves must no longer reflect a fear of being labeled outsiders, must no longer bind us to a system that would rather see us dead Picture Quote #1

The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises; and discovered to be, at great human cost, wholly false Picture Quote #1

It is our inward journey that leads us through time – forward or back, seldom in a straight line, most often spiraling. Each of us is moving, changing, with respect to others. As we discover, we remember; remembering, we discover; and most intensely do we experience this when our separate journeys converge. Our living experience at those meeting points is one of the charged dramatic fields of fiction Picture Quote #1

We discover that we are at the same time very insignificant and very important, because each of our actions is preparing the humanity of tomorrow; it is a tiny contribution to the construction of the huge and glorious final humanity Picture Quote #1

Just because you discover that you may like somebody after all, it doesn’t necessarily mean there’s any attraction Picture Quote #1

If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong Picture Quote #1

You will soon discover that in matters of the heart, memories are much kinder than reality Picture Quote #1

The job of every generation is to discover the flaws of the one that came before it. That’s part of growing up, figuring out all the ways your parents and their friends are broken Picture Quote #1

I’ve tried to become someone else for a while, only to discover that he, too, was me Picture Quote #1

The storm hit with all the fury of a woman who’d been dieting for six months, only to discover she’d gained four pounds Picture Quote #1

I found I was repeating myself. It is the beginning of the end when you discover you have style Picture Quote #1

If for nine years I have possessed a goodly apple that is rotten at the core and discover its rottenness only in nine years and six months less four days, isn’t it true to say that for nine years I possessed a goodly apple? Picture Quote #1

I guess I had always sort of fantasized that a guy would see me and get past the ponytail and the glasses and the giant sweatshirt to discover how insanely awesome I am, then come and whisk me off into that magical teenager fairytale where everyone else gets to prance around Picture Quote #1

Was it really some other person I was so anxious to discover... or was it only my own solitude that I could not abide? Picture Quote #1

The day you learn to be publically specific in your prayer, that is the day you will discover power Picture Quote #1

Every day I discover more and more beautiful things. It’s enough to drive one mad. I have such a desire to do everything, my head is bursting with it Picture Quote #1

Our mission as humans is not only to discover our fullest selves in the technium, and to find full contentment, but to expand the possibilities for others. Greater technology will selfishly unleash our talents, but it will also unselfishly unleash others: our children, and all children to come Picture Quote #1

Unused to the situations in which I find myself, and embarassed by the slightest difficulties, I seldom discover, till too late, how I ought to act Picture Quote #1

In time you may discover everything that can be discovered, and still your progress will only be progress away from humanity. The distance between you and them can one day become so great that your joyous cry over some new gain could be answered by an universal shriek of horror Picture Quote #1

As strange as it sounds, meditation may reveal that we are happier than we thought we were. We may discover that ancient conditioning rather than present circumstances is causing our dissatisfaction, and that this moment is quite sufficient or even wonderful, and we simply hadn’t noticed Picture Quote #1
