Grim Quotes

Still, this whole grim reaper thing should have come with a manual. Or a diagram of some kind. A flowchart would have been nice Picture Quote #1

... there’s no rule book or game plan when it comes to the grim realities of our lives Picture Quote #1

Refuse to let the thought of death bother you: nothing is grim when we have escaped that fear Picture Quote #1

Honour belongs to those who never forsake the truth even when things seem dark and grim, who try over and over again, who are never discouraged by insults, humiliation and even defeat Picture Quote #1

Someday someone will write a pathology of experimental physics and bring to light all those swindles which subvert our reason, beguile our judgement and, what is worse, stand in the way of any practical progress. The phenomena must be freed once and for all from their grim torture chamber of empiricism, mechanism, and dogmatism; they must be brought before the jury of man’s common sense Picture Quote #1

Enlightenment is like witnessing the brilliant sun for the first time in the morning. It is like seeing the beautiful flowers that grow in the wood, the frolicking deer, a bird flying proudly, or fish swimming. Life is not all that grim. In the morning you brush your teeth, you can see how shiny they are. Reality has its own gallantry, spark, and arrogance. You can study life while you are alive. You can study how you can achieve the brilliance of life Picture Quote #1

The whole grim apparatus of oppression and coercion, policemen, customs guards, penal courts, prisons, in some countries even executioners, had to be put into action in order to destroy the gold standard Picture Quote #1

Behold the hippopotamus! We laugh at how he looks to us, and yet in moments dank and grim, I wonder how we look to him Picture Quote #1

There is grim irony in speaking of the freedom of contract of those who, because of their economic necessities, give their service for less than is needful to keep body and soul together Picture Quote #1

She has great problems of her own to solve, very grim and perilous problems, and a right solution, if we can attain to it, would largely benefit mankind Picture Quote #1

The fates are not quite obdurate; they have a grim, sardonic way of granting them who supplicate the thing they wanted yesterday Picture Quote #1

The knowledge that you’re alive gives me no pleasure, growled the grim old Austrian premier Picture Quote #1

The grim frost is at hand, when apples will fall thick, almost thunderous, on the hardened earth Picture Quote #1

Love without laughter can be grim and oppressive. Laughter without love can be derisive and venomous. Together they make for greatness of spirit Picture Quote #1

The grim irony of investing, then, is that we investors as a group not only don’t get what we pay for, we get precisely what we don’t pay for. So if we pay for nothing, we get everything Picture Quote #1

It was like in Samoa when they’d put up a movie screen on the beach and show movies and the locals would run behind the sheet to see where the people went. It was pretty grim Picture Quote #1

We were the only black family in an estate with 1,000 white families. Liverpool being quite racist in the Sixties, it was a bit grim growing up Picture Quote #1

When news of the crash came, probably a lot of people in small towns and farms across America felt a sense of grim satisfaction that the sinners had finally been punished for their wicked ways Picture Quote #1

I feel sometimes that in children’s books there are more and more grim problems, but I don’t know that I want to burden third- and fourth-graders with them Picture Quote #1

Decoration Day is the most beautiful of our national holidays... The grim cannon have turned into palm branches, and the shell and shrapnel into peach blossoms Picture Quote #1

The attacks of September 11, 2001, were spectacular, riveting, grim, costly and searing. The shock that they caused reverberated throughout the world. What happened in New York and Washington and Pennsylvania ended the lives of thousands of people and changed the lives of many more. But they did not change the world Picture Quote #1

Depression has been called the worlds number one public health problem. In fact, depression is so widespread it is considered the common cold of psychiatric disturbances. But there is a grim difference between depression and a cold. Depression can kill you Picture Quote #1

Just because you get to a certain number doesn’t mean you have to roll up into a ball and wait for the grim reaper. We were put on this earth to do something! If you stop using your brain, at any age, it is going to stop working. It’s like if you stop using your hand, it will atrophy. I think doing nothing is a curse Picture Quote #1

The Nobel Peace Prize has always been a joke - albeit a grim one. Alfred Bernhard Nobel famously invented dynamite and felt sorry about it Picture Quote #1

Puerto Ricans who find they can no longer afford to keep their pets often choose to drop their dogs, sometimes even whole litters of puppies, at a beach - sometimes under cover of night, in secret - rather than surrender the animal to a city or state-run shelter where the animals will face grim conditions and almost certain death by euthanasia Picture Quote #1

When I was first introduced to Buddhism in a high school World Studies class, I dismissed it out of hand. This was during the hedonistic days of the late 60s, and this spiritual path seemed so grim with its concern about attachment and, apparently, anti-pleasure Picture Quote #1

Bad impulse buys make you feel grim, don’t they? It’s like having consumer Tourette’s. I gravitate towards austere foreign-language film DVDs when insecure Picture Quote #1

Spiritual practice should not be confused with grim duty. It is the laughter of the Dalai Lama and the wonder born with every child Picture Quote #1
