Drown Quotes

People can’t fly because they don’t believe they can. If nobody ever showed people they could swim, everybody’d drown if they were dropped into the water Picture Quote #1

I wanted to be wanted and he was very beautiful, kissed with his eyes closed, and only felt good while moving. You could drown in those eyes, I said, so it’s summer, so it’s suicide, so we’re helpless in sleep and struggling at the bottom of the pool Picture Quote #1

We all understand situations where it’s swim or drown. Sometimes we surprise ourselves when we start swimming and see how well we can do it Picture Quote #1

I realized that whatever your path, whatever your calling, the most damaging thing you can do is let other voices define you and drown out your own. You’ve got to block them out and find that place deep inside you, shaken but still intact, and hold on to it Picture Quote #1

False is the idea of utility that sacrifices a thousand real advantages for one imaginary or trifling inconvenience; that would take fire from men because it burns, and water because one may drown in it; that has no remedy for evils except destruction. The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes Picture Quote #1

On the way I thought about how millions of people drowned so that the first person could learn to swim. The amazing thing is that people still drown Picture Quote #1

And while the ice was melting to form a flood in which I threatened to drown I awoke one afternoon to find that my first northern winter had set Picture Quote #1

Faith is only as valid as its object. You could have tremendous faith in very thin ice and drown... You could have very little faith in very thick ice and be perfectly secure Picture Quote #1

Set boundaries and keep them. People will drown you with their need, and demonize you for not filling their emptiness Picture Quote #1

The heaviness leaves, and if I’m patient enough it can be replaced by something I need, somthing that would fill instead of drown and let me breathe instead of bleed Picture Quote #1

All the answers you may wish for lie within faith, but it demands a complete and incontinent surrender, an immersion as total as any baptism. Indeed baptism is a kind of enactment of the surrender: you bathe in faith, you swim in it, you live by it, surrounded by it, buoyed up by it, engulfed by it. You drown in it, for at times it takes your breath away as entirely as any lungful of water... All the answers lie in faith; and when you lose your faith you have no choice but to substitute for if a philosophy that deliberately and coldly offers no answers at all Picture Quote #1

We’re all in the game. We all drive cars, and we’re all hooked on oil. The question is how we can get unhooked before we drown in the stuff Picture Quote #1

Jesus, our head, is already in heaven; and if the head be above water, the body cannot drown Picture Quote #1

I really believe that women have much easier access to their souls than men do. Because as men we’re taught to wear masks, to drown out our emotions in competition and making money. Now women are being forced to do that too. But I admire their capacity to bear their spirituality so much more deeply than men Picture Quote #1

In architecture, space was a material to be shaped, even created. For these men, the material was silence. Silence like water in which you could drown, the absence of talk as constricting as the absence of air Picture Quote #1

You can’t drown yourself that simply. All good suicides involve speed and irreversibility, because the body will always move to protect itself against the sicko mind trying to do it in Picture Quote #1

The relentless pull of love is a thousand times harder to fight than the tides. If you’re lucky, you’ll make it out before you drown. If you’re even luckier, you’re pulled under just long enough to wash away the sorrow. If you’re really lucky, like me, you resurface just in time to find the one you love floating right beside you Picture Quote #1

Spit on your own and you can’t do anything, but if you all spit together you can drown the bastards Picture Quote #1

Ignore the received wisdom of any industry you’re entering. Never be trapped by dogma. Never let other people’s opinions drown out your own inner voice Picture Quote #1

Besides, it doesn’t matter if it’s real. It never does with dreams. They aren’t anything anyway but lifesavers to cling to so you don’t drown. Life is an ocean, and most everyone’s hanging on to some kind of dream to keep afloat Picture Quote #1

I lead horses to water and if they don’t drink, then I drown them Picture Quote #1

This pen is my only outlet, my only voice, because I have no one else to speak to, no mind but my own to drown in and all the lifeboats are taken and all the life preservers are broken and I don’t know how to swim I can’t swim I can’t swim and it’s getting so hard. It’s getting so hard. It’s like there are a million screams caught inside of my chest but I have to keep them all in because what’s the point of screaming if you’ll never be heard and no one will ever hear me in here. No one will ever hear me again Picture Quote #1

Don’t you see all the people sinking down? Don’t you care? Are you gonna let them drown? Picture Quote #1

You gotta look beyond the mainstream... the mainstream’ll drown you, you know? There’s always a pulse in the underground that I love. And the pulse in the underground is what keeps heavy metal alive Picture Quote #1

When you give in to aversion and anger, it’s as though, having decided to kill someone by throwing him into a river, you wrap your arms around his neck, jump into the water with him, and you both drown. In destroying your enemy, you destroy yourself as well Picture Quote #1

I will build my empire next to the sea, so I can laugh from my throne as my enemies drown Picture Quote #1

There isn’t a tree to hang a man, water to drown a man nor soil to bury a man Picture Quote #1

Man hurts man, time and time again. As we drown in the wake of our power, somebody tell me why? Picture Quote #1

One metric catches people. We prefer businesses that drown in cash. An example of a different business is construction equipment. You work hard all year and there is your profit sitting in the yard. We avoid businesses like that. We prefer those that can write us a check at the end of the year Picture Quote #1

Boredom is the thing that regularly arrives between excitements and episodes of meaning: it is as natural as the tides, and in it an artist can drown Picture Quote #1
