Gods Quotes

Do not underestimate the human being, who sometimes appears so simple. Even with sight as sharp as an eagle, a mind as sharp as a razor, senses more powerful than gods, hearing that can catch the music and the lamentations of life, your knowledge of humanity will never be total Picture Quote #1

Change is the sum of the universe, and what is of nature ought not to be feared. But one gives it hostages, and lays one’s grief upon the gods. Sokrates is free, and would have taught me freedom. But I have yoked the immortal horse that draws the chariot with a horse of earth; and when the one falls, both are entangled in the traces Picture Quote #1

As a child I became a confirmed believer in the ancient gods simply because as between the reality of fact and the reality f myth, I chose myth... Myth is the truth of fact, not fact the truth of myth Picture Quote #1

In a sense everything that is exists to climb. All evolution is a climbing towards a higher form. Climbing for life as it reaches towards the consciousness, towards the spirit. We have always honored the high places because we sense them to be the homes of gods. In the mountains there is the promise of... something unexplainable. A higher place of awareness, a spirit that soars. So we climb... and in climbing there is more than a metaphor; there is a means of discovery Picture Quote #1

An agnostic position is one that leaves open the question whether there exists a God or gods, professing to find such a question unanswered or unanswerable. For the atheist, the question has been answered, and in the negative Picture Quote #1

Responsibility for the creation of the good world in which the good life may be realized, which the frustrated ages of the past loaded upon the gods, is now being assumed by man. The ideal of this modern drift is the realization of the full joy in living Picture Quote #1

The mathematical phenomenon always develops out of simple arithmetic, so useful in everyday life, out of numbers, those weapons of the gods: the gods are there, behind the wall, at play with numbers Picture Quote #1

False gods must be repudiated, but that is not all: The reasons for their existence must be sought beneath their masks Picture Quote #1

The historian’s first duties are sacrilege and the mocking of false gods. They are his indispensable instruments for establishing the truth Picture Quote #1

All lives are tales. Some spread, and grow in the telling. Others are just told between us and the gods, muttered back and forth behind our days, but those tales grow too and shake us just as fierce Picture Quote #1

I’ve never even been to bed with a man. Never. That’s how pure I am; I have nothing to be ashamed of. My gods made me the way I am Picture Quote #1

We are more than our bodies, it is true; but we cannot be divorced from them. They are us, and the only way in which we can see one another. Perhaps the gods are above this, but in their mercy, they have given us the guise of bodies Picture Quote #1

Myths are stories about people who become too big for their lives temporarily, so that they crash into other lives or brush against gods. In crisis their souls are visible Picture Quote #1

The gods tempt us. They offer us riches and sweet smelling women, tres leches, each milk sweeter than the one before. But you cannot beat the gods. The grander house and the bigger deal only mean more borrowed time, more risk. When you build your life on a house of cards, you never know when the joker will turn up Picture Quote #1

Being an artist doesn’t take much, just everything you got. Which means, of course, that as the process is giving you life, it is also bringing you closer to death. But it’s no big deal. They are one in the same and cannot be avoided or denied. So when I totally embrace this process, this life/death, and abandon myself to it, I transcend all this meaningless gibberish and hang out with the gods. It seems to me that that is worth the price of admission Picture Quote #1

Science has rolled its war wagons over the crushed myths of so many religious beliefs. It has marshaled its mechanics to explain the motions of the sun, moon, and stars. It has mapped the heavens, leaving no place for gods to live Picture Quote #1

You are given the gifts of the gods; you create your reality according to your beliefs Picture Quote #1

All food is the gift of the gods and has something of the miraculous, the egg no less than the truffle Picture Quote #1

You can do anything you think you can. This knowledge is literally the gift of the gods Picture Quote #1

If you have a good spine, the gods will chase you. Nobody has psychological or emotional problems, everyone has a bad spine Picture Quote #1

You have debased my child... You have made him a laughingstock of intelligence... a stench in the nostrils of the gods of the ionosphere Picture Quote #1

And to kill time while awaiting death, I smoke slender cigarettes thumbing my nose to the gods Picture Quote #1

Truly the gods have not from the beginning revealed all things to mortals, but by long seeking, mortals discover what is better Picture Quote #1

Time has nothing to do with the gifts that the gods give you; it’s what you do Picture Quote #1

We are the gods of the atoms that make up ourselves but we are also the atoms of the gods that make up the universe Picture Quote #1

Let us use our energy and our initiative to solve our problems without relying on prayers and wishful thinking. When we have faith in ourselves, we will find we do not have to have faith in gods Picture Quote #1

You make choices that are good and sound, but the gods have other plans for you Picture Quote #1

The world inside myself is vaster and richer than this paltry plane, peopled with mere galaxies and gods Picture Quote #1

I desire that your conjectures should not reach beyond your creative will. Could you create a god? Then do not speak to me of any gods Picture Quote #1

Live with the gods. And he does so who constantly shows them that his soul is satisfied with what is assigned to him Picture Quote #1
