Death has to be waiting at the end of the ride before you truly see the earth, and feel your heart, and love the world (Earth Quotes)
Why do men carry guns and build prison camps, when the nurturing earth is made for freedom? (Earth Quotes)
Funeral expenses are the curse of the poor everywhere on earth, they are wasteful and unnecessary, they are the price of foolish ostentation and a display that is less an evidence of grief than a vulgar travesty of those pompous obsequies where no grief is (Earth Quotes)
Is not man himself the most unsettled of all the creatures of the earth? What is this trembling sensation that is intensified with each ascending step in the natural order? (Earth Quotes)
Nature, in her blind thirst for life has filled every possible cranny of the rotting earth with some sort of fantastic creature (Earth Quotes)
Romance fails us and so do friendships, but the relationship of parent and child, less noisy than all the others, remains indelible and indestructible, the strongest relationship on earth (Earth Quotes)
The seas are the hearts blood of the earth. Plucked up and kneaded by the sun and the moon, the tides are systole and diastole of earth’s veins (Earth Quotes)
They wouldn’t be heroes if they were infallible, in fact they wouldn’t be heroes if they weren’t miserable wretched dogs, the pariahs of the earth, besides which the only reason to build up an idol is to tear it down again (Earth Quotes)
Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts (Earth Quotes)
It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know the sense of wonder and humility (Earth Quotes)
One must be aware that one is continually being tested in what one wishes most in order to make clear whether one’s heart is on earth or in heaven (Earth Quotes)
Perhaps... our lot on the earth is to seek and to search. Now and again we find just enough to enable us to carry on. I now doubt that any of us will completely find and be found in this life (Earth Quotes)
When you’re finally up on the moon, looking back at the earth, all these differences and nationalistic traits are pretty well going to blend and you’re going to get a concept that maybe this is really one world and why the hell can’t we learn to live together like decent people? (Earth Quotes)
It often happens that those of whom we speak least on earth are best known in heaven (Earth Quotes)
Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the meek who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong, and dare not speak (Earth Quotes)
Life is a series of diminishments. Each cessation of an activity either from choice or some other variety of infirmity is a death, a putting to final rest. Each loss, of friend or precious enemy, can be equated with the closing off of a room containing blocks of nerves and soon after the closing off the nerves atrophy and that part of oneself, in essence, drops away. The self is lightened, is held on earth by a gram less of mass and will (Earth Quotes)
Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement... says heaven and earth in one word... speaks of himself and his predicament as though for the first time (Earth Quotes)
If people would forget about utopia! When rationalism destroyed heaven and decided to set it up here on earth, that most terrible of all goals entered human ambition. It was clear there’d be no end to what people would be made to suffer for it (Earth Quotes)
The human head is bigger than the globe. It conceives itself as containing more. It can think and rethink itself and ourselves from any desired point outside the gravitational pull of the earth. It starts by writing one thing and later reads itself as something else. The human head is monstrous (Earth Quotes)
I think that a lot of women are made to feel that they have not done the one thing that they were put on the earth to do if they didn’t do the normal thing, if they didn’t take the most traveled path. And it’s unfortunate (Earth Quotes)
Precious gems are profoundly buried in the earth and can only be extracted at the expense of great labor (Earth Quotes)
The whole earth, perpetually steeped in blood, is nothing but an immense altar on which every living thing must be sacrificed without end, without restraint, without respite until the consummation of the world, the extinction of evil, the death of death (Earth Quotes)
We know that the white man does not understand our ways. One portion of land is the same to him as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs. The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on (Earth Quotes)
