Giving Quotes

The only writers who have any peace are the ones who don’t write. And there are some like that. They wallow in a sea of possibilities. To express a thought, you first have to limit it, and that means kill it. Every word I speak robs me of a thousand others, and every line I write means giving up another Picture Quote #1

And that’s my point: all great things worth having require great sacrifice worth giving Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about the internet. It’s really good at giving you pointless facts like how many horses a star owns, but not important things like how to invade his trailer Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to have to earn love by giving up my ability to make decisions that determine how I live Picture Quote #1

If you are doing the right thing for the earth, she’s giving you great company Picture Quote #1

There is a particular hapiness in giving a man whom you like very much, good food that you have cooked yourself Picture Quote #1

There are some people who cannot help giving. Why? Because they experience a real psychological pleasure in doing so. They don’t do it with an eye to their own advantage, they do it on the quiet; they detest doing it openly because that would take away some of the satisfaction. They do it in secret, with quick trembling hands, their breasts rocked by a spiritual well being which they do not themselves understand Picture Quote #1

Over and over again, stories in women’s magazines insist that women can know fulfillment only at the moment of giving birth to a child. They deny the years when she can no longer look forward to giving birth, even if she repeats the act over and over again. In the feminine mystique, there is no other way for a woman to dream of creation or of the future. There is no other way she can even dream about herself, except as her children’s mother, her husband’s wife Picture Quote #1

Togetherness has to do with focused attention. It is giving someone your undivided attention. As humans, we have a fundamental desire to connect with others. We may be in the presence of people all day long, but we do not always feel connected Picture Quote #1

I wanted something that I could look back on and say, yes, you were fighting too, you burned to be alive, and whatever failure or accident of nature caused you to be killed could be explained by something other than the fact that I’d missed your giving up Picture Quote #1

People always say that I didn’t give up my seat because I was tired, but that isn’t true. No, the only tired I was, was tired of giving in Picture Quote #1

Teachings that do not speak of pain have no meaning... because humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return Picture Quote #1

A proper disposition of time leaves a man at leisure in the very bustle of affairs; without delaying the attention of his concerns to the last or giving them unnecessary application at first: it affords a season for everything by affording everything its proper season Picture Quote #1

Information is the most valuable commodity in the world today and this business is about giving people access to information that is relevant to their lives Picture Quote #1

We celebrate the birth of one who told us to give everything to the poor by giving each other motorized tie racks Picture Quote #1

We discovered that peace at any price is no peace at all. We discovered that life at any price has no value whatever; that life is nothing without the privileges, the prides, the rights, the joys which make it worth living, and also worth giving. And we also discovered that there is something more hideous, more atrocious than war or than death; and that is to live in fear Picture Quote #1

Cooking demands attention, patience, and above all, a respect for the gifts of the earth. It is a form of worship, a way of giving thanks Picture Quote #1

Giving kids whatever they ask for is disastrous parenting. There’s no sense of something earned. I’m sorry, but when you’re 12, you don’t need a new cell phone every few months just because a new one comes out Picture Quote #1

A few really dedicated people can offset the masses of out of harmony people, so we who work for peace must not falter, we must continue to pray for peace and to act for peace in whatever way we can. We must continue to speak for peace and to live the way of peace; to inspire others, we must continue to think of peace and know that peace is possible. What we dwell upon we help bring to manifestation. One little person giving all of her time to peace makes news. Many people giving some of their time can make history Picture Quote #1

Human contribution is the essential ingredient. It is only in the giving of oneself to others that we truly live Picture Quote #1

Love is energy: it can neither be created nor destroyed. It just is and always will be, giving meaning to life and direction to goodness... Love will never die Picture Quote #1

Service... Giving what you don’t have to give. Giving when you don’t need to give. Giving because you want to give Picture Quote #1

Some are less giving, others are more reticent and you actually have to create for them. Others have within them the next step Picture Quote #1

Your manner of life now is already determining your life in those years of old age and retirement, without your realizing it even, and perhaps without your giving enough thought to it. One must therefore prepare oneself for retirement Picture Quote #1

To offer a man friendship when love is in his heart is like giving a loaf of bread to one who is dying of thirst Picture Quote #1

For all those who are interested in the spiritual, emotional, intellectual, esthetic, historical or any other aspects of our dance art... It is high time that our universities had faculties for dance, giving the art its due place in the academic world Picture Quote #1

We become human only in the company of other human beings. And this involves both opening our hearts and giving voice to our deepest convictions... When we shrink from the world, our souls shrink, too Picture Quote #1
