Text Quotes
The very spot where grew the bread that formed my bones, I see. How strange, old field, on thee to tread, and feel I’m part of thee  (Grew Quotes) I happen to think like a man, and do certain things guys like to do. I grew up around boys  (Grew Quotes) In every job, I would justify it in my mind, whether I loved it or hated it, that I was getting paid to learn and every experience would be of value when I figured out what I wanted to do when I grew up  (Grew Quotes) Recall that whatever lofty things you might accomplish today, you will do them only because you first ate something that grew out of the dirt  (Grew Quotes) I grew convinced that truth, sincerity and integrity in dealings between man and man were of the utmost importance to the felicity of life, and I formed written resolutions... to practice them ever while I lived  (Grew Quotes) Like a bird she seems to wear gay plumage unconsciously, as if it grew upon her  (Grew Quotes) I grew up with coconuts as the main flavor in food in Jamaica. It’s part of our culture  (Grew Quotes) There slowly grew up in me an unshakable conviction that we have no right to inflict suffering and death on another living creature, unless there is some unavoidable necessity for it  (Grew Quotes) I was lucky. I grew up knowing that hard work and smart work has a greater impact on results than being passionate about something  (Grew Quotes) I played with an idea, and grew willful; tossed it into the air; transformed it; let it escape and recaptured it; made it iridescent with fancy, and winged it with paradox  (Grew Quotes) Human beings grew up in forests; we have a natural affinity for them. How lovely a tree is, straining toward the sky  (Grew Quotes) I grew up in the country, which is probably why I’m so attached to the land. I love it. I love the lay of the land. I love walking the land. And I love knowing that it’s my land  (Grew Quotes) I grew up in an apolitical household. I never left the country. When I became an adult, I started traveling and became interested in politics, and I probably talked about things in a silly, ignorant way  (Grew Quotes) I grew up very insecure. From the time I was little I used to hide under my mother’s dress  (Grew Quotes) I grew up being very shy, very much a bookworm, and I remember desperately wondering how to be accepted by the popular kids  (Grew Quotes) I grew up in a really small town with not a lot of money, and I liked singing, but it was just something that was a hobby  (Grew Quotes) I have never been able to renounce the light, the pleasure of being, and the freedom in which I grew up  (Grew Quotes) I grew up with the sea, and poverty for me was sumptuous; then I lost the sea and found all luxuries gray and poverty unbearable  (Grew Quotes) One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don’t invest any energy in them, because I know who I am  (Grew Quotes) My coming to faith did not start with a leap but rather a series of staggers from what seemed like one safe place to another. Like lily pads, round and green, these places summoned and then held me up while I grew. Each prepared me for the next leaf on which I would land, and in this way I moved across the swamp of doubt and fear  (Grew Quotes) All of the films that I’ve made are about the country I live in and grew up in... And I think if you’re going to put an artist’s eye to it, you’re going to put a critical eye to it. I’ve always been interested in the gray area that exists between the black and white, or the red and blue, and that’s where complexity lies  (Grew Quotes) The convoluted wording of legalisms grew up around the necessity to hide from ourselves the violence we intend toward each other. Between depriving a man of one hour from his life and depriving him of his life there exists only a difference of degree. You have done violence to him, consumed his energy  (Grew Quotes) A summer rain had left the night clean and sparkling with drops of water. I leaned against the end pillar of the gallery, my head touching the soft tendrils of a jasmine which grew there in a constant battle with a wisteria, and I thought of what lay before me throughout the world and throughout time, and resolved to go about it delicately and reverently, learning that from each thing which would take me best to another  (Grew Quotes) We aren’t in high school. We aren’t really in our families and we aren’t in our houses. Those are the places we grew up and the times we spent together, but they aren’t us. If think they are, then we’re lost, because times end and places are lost. We aren’t any place or any time... We are everywhere  (Grew Quotes) Isn’t it time that these most ancient sorrows of ours grew fruitful? Time that we tenderly loosed ourselves from the loved one, and, unsteadily, survived: the way the arrow, suddenly all vector, survives the string to be more than itself. For abiding is nowhere  (Grew Quotes) In her enthusiasms she had always looked for something tangible: she had always loved church for its flowers, music for its romantic words, literature for its power to stir the passions and she rebelled before the mysteries of faith just as she grew ever more restive under discipline, which was antipathetic to her nature  (Grew Quotes) To harden the earth the rocks took charge: instantly they grew wings: the rocks that soared: the survivors flew up the lightning bolt, screamed in the night, a watermark, a violet sword, a meteor. The succulent sky had not only clouds, not only space smelling of oxygen, but an earthly stone flashing here and there changed into a dove, changed into a bell, into immensity, into a piercing wind: into a phosphorescent arrow, into salt of the sky  (Grew Quotes) Morning drew on apace. The air became more sharp and piercing, as its first dull hue: the death of night, rather than the birth of day: glimmered faintly in the sky. The objects which had looked dim and terrible in the darkness, grew more and more defined, and gradually resolved into their familiar shapes. The rain came down, thick and fast; and pattered, noisily, among the leafless bushes  (Grew Quotes) We wouldn’t ask why a rose that grew from the concrete for having damaged petals, in turn, we would all celebrate its tenacity, we would all love its will to reach the sun, well, we are the roses, this is the concrete and these are my damaged petals, don’t ask me why, thank God, and ask me how  (Grew Quotes) As he stared back, he altered... as if a shield slid away fro his eyes, revealing a scorching force of will that sucked the air from my lungs. The intense magnetism he exuded grew in strength, becoming a near tangible impression of vibrant and unrelenting power  (Grew Quotes)
