Far Quotes

I love teaching. It’s a job that lasts forever. Whatever you teach children today travels with them far into the future Picture Quote #1

I would love you all the day, every night we would kiss and play, if with me you’d fondly stray, over the hills and far away Picture Quote #1

She’s called the secretary, but as far as I can tell she basically runs the school Picture Quote #1

I remember an era when you could get your nose sliced off for sticking it too far into another man’s business. Now you can find out anything about anyone with the click of a button. There is no privacy and no consideration, and everyone is prying into things that aren’t their affair. You can probably check on the intertube and find out what color underwear I have on today Picture Quote #1

There were worse things than death, as she’d discovered. Sometimes living took far more courage. Facing another day. Enduring. Those things took strength. Far more than dying Picture Quote #1

I think you’d best make your peace with the past since you’ve come this far. I think you know by now that you won’t go back again Picture Quote #1

You’re alive only once, as far as we know, and what could be worse than getting to the end of your life and realizing you hadn’t lived it? Picture Quote #1

The dead are never far from us. They’re in our hearts and on our minds and in the end all that separates us from them is a single breath, one final puff of air Picture Quote #1

What parts had she discarded for the sake of her sanity? What had she cut from herself? Had he stared into her pupils he would have emerged, bewildered and blinking, on the far side of the earth. Was he awed by her? Absolutely. Did he respect her? Unequivocally. Want to be anything like her? No, never, not at all Picture Quote #1

Today I acknowledge that I am not in position to judge what mistakes anyone is making or what lessons anyone needs to learn. I don’t know how far someone has come or when that person will have a breakthrough, I simply don’t know what other people should be doing. But when I think I do know, I clearly am not doing what I should be doing, which is taking responsibility for my own life Picture Quote #1

We’re all working hard, but so far away from what we actually want to be doing. We’re all peering in at the window of a party we aren’t invited to yet, a party we wouldn’t know how to dress for, or what kind of conversation to make, even if we came as someone’s guest Picture Quote #1

Most people ended up, after only a couple of months, so far away from where they’d intended to go, stuck in some barbed underbrush of a quagmire when they’d meant to head straight to the ocean Picture Quote #1

This is not an easy time for humorists because the government is far funnier than we are Picture Quote #1

The chief aim of their constitution is that, whenever public needs permit, all citizens should be free, so far as possible, to withdraw their time and energy from the service of the body, and devote themselves to the freedom and culture of the mind. For that, they think, is the real happiness of life Picture Quote #1

I feel sorry for people who have to edit me. Which is why book writing is by far the most enjoyable. Really the only thing it’s based on is whether it’s good or not. No book editor, in my experience, is getting a manuscript and trying to rewrite it Picture Quote #1

We all have to decide how we are going to fail, by not going far enough or by going too far Picture Quote #1

Doing the things we do now and doing them better, cheaper and faster will take us far. But it will not take us far enough. We’re going to have to do new things in new ways Picture Quote #1

The world’s religions, for all their parochialism, did supply a kind of consolation for this great ache... This shattering recognition of our mortality is at the root of far more mental illness than I suspect even psychiatrists are aware Picture Quote #1

The body does not want you to do this. As you run, it tells you to stop but the mind must be strong. You always go too far for your body. You must handle the pain with strategy... It is not age; it is not diet. It is the will to succeed Picture Quote #1

This recipe is certainly silly. It says to separate two eggs, but it doesn’t say how far to separate them Picture Quote #1

I am far too much in doubt about the present, far too perturbed.about the future, to be otherwise than profoundly reverential about the past Picture Quote #1

Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts. Such facts may be detailed with the most minute exactness, and yet the narrative, taken as a whole, may be unmeaning or untrue. The narrator must seek to imbue himself with the life and spirit of the time. He must study events in their bearings near and remote; in the character, habits, and manners of those who took part in them. He must himself be, as it were, a sharer or a spectator of the action he describes Picture Quote #1

I have not been able to find a single useful institution which has not been founded either by an intensely religious man or by the son of a praying father or a praying mother. I have made the statement before the chambers of commerce of all the largest cities of the country and have asked them to bring forward a case that is an exception to this rule. Thus far, I have not heard of a single one Picture Quote #1

There is a kind of magicness about going far away and then coming back all changed Picture Quote #1

I learnt that fame is an illusion and everything about it is just a joke. I’m far more dangerous now, because I don’t care at all Picture Quote #1

I’m becoming far more interested in just functionality and making sure my body is as strong as it can be so I can swing my kids around and not worry about aches and pains Picture Quote #1

From a yogic perspective, stillness, coupled with expanded awareness, is by far the most powerful medium by which you can affect your destiny Picture Quote #1

It takes far less courage to kill yourself than it takes to wake up one more time. It is harder to stay where you are than to get out Picture Quote #1

In his scientific genius, man has wrought material miracles and has transformed his world. He has harnassed nature and has developed great civilizations. But he has never learned very well how to live with himself. The values he has created have been predominantly materialistic; his spiritual values have lagged far behind. He has demonstrated little spiritual genius and has made little progress toward the realization of human brotherhood. In the contemporary atomic age, this could prove man’s fatal weakness Picture Quote #1

Autumn is the eternal corrective. It is ripeness and color and a time of maturity; but it is also breadth, and depth, and distance. What man can stand with autumn on a hilltop and fail to see the span of his world and the meaning of the rolling hills that reach to the far horizon? Picture Quote #1
