That afternoon the sky was scattered with black clouds galloping in from the sea and clustering over the city. Flashes of lightening echoed on the horizon and a charged warm wind smelling of dust announced a powerful summer storm.

Night seemed to fall suddenly, interrupted only by the lightning now bursting over the city, leaving a trail of noise and fury Picture Quote #1

As I leafed through the book in front of me and watched the dust swirl in the air, I wondered if maybe there was some evil dormant virus in the pages that would infect me, like the mummy dust that used to kill archaeologists. Death by research. That was not a glorious end Picture Quote #1

Because there is no cosmic point to the life that each of us perceives on this distant bit of dust at galaxy’s edge, all the more reason for us to maintain in proper balance what we have here. Because there is nothing else. Nothing. This is it. And quite enough, all in all Picture Quote #1

When I became convinced that the universe is natural, that all the ghosts and gods are myths, there entered into my brain, into my soul, into every drop of my blood the sense, the feeling, the joy of freedom. The walls of my prison crumbled and fell. The dungeon was flooded with light and all the bolts and bars and manacles became dust Picture Quote #1

Run down the list of those who felt intense anger at something: the most famous, the most unfortunate, the most hated, the most whatever: Where is all that now?

A collection of bad love songs, tattered from overuse, has to touch us like a cemetery or a village. So what if the houses have no style, if the graves are vanishing under tasteless ornaments and inscriptions?

Children who are decked with prince’s robes and who have jeweled chains round their necks lose all pleasure in play; their dress hampers them at every step. In fear that it may be frayed, or stained with dust, they keep themselves from the world and are afraid ever to move. Mother, it is no gain, thy bondage of finery, if it keep one shut off from the healthful dust of the earth, if it rob one of the right of entrance to the great fair of common human life Picture Quote #1

You find me at work; excuse the dust on my blouse. I sculpt my marble myself Picture Quote #1

We’re a long, long way from home, bobbie; Home’s a long, long way from us. I feel a dirty wind blowing; Devils and dust Picture Quote #1

The child ever dwells in the mystery of ageless time, unobscured by the dust of history Picture Quote #1

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet Picture Quote #1

Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance Picture Quote #1

If the point is sharp, and the arrow is swift, it can pierce through the dust no matter how thick Picture Quote #1

Some men so dislike the dust kicked up by the generation they belong to, that, being unable to pass, they lag behind it Picture Quote #1

The knight’s bones are dust, and his good sword rust; His soul is with the saints, I trust Picture Quote #1
