Text Quotes
The dreams are that you’re gonna have a great series and win. The nightmares are that you’re gonna let the winning run score on a ground ball through your legs. Those things happen, you know. I think a lot of it is just fate (Ground Quotes)
Don’t you ever touch me. Don’t ever touch me. The last guy who touched me ended up on the ground dead (Ground Quotes)
My young men shall never work, men who work cannot dream; and wisdom comes to us in dreams. You ask me to plow the ground. Shall I take a knife and tear my mothers breast? Then when I die she will not take me to her bosom to rest. You ask me to dig for stone. Shall I dig under her skin for her bones? Then when I die I cannot enter her body to be born again. You ask me to cut grass and make hay and sell it and be rich like white men. But how dare I cut off my mother’s hair (Ground Quotes)
If there are nine rabbits on the ground and you want to catch one, just focus on one (Ground Quotes)
You have to be ready for hard work and frugal spending to get the idea off the ground (Ground Quotes)
Eisenhower advocated a variety of strong actions which he had never taken when he was president. Maybe this was just the pattern of former presidents; maybe it reflected how much the circumstances had changed on the ground (Ground Quotes)
There is nothing to prevent you from pushing your propaganda, to push your programme out to the students or with the public at large…and if you can carry the ground, if you are right, you win. That’s democracy (Ground Quotes)
Whenever the cloud of ego threatens to engulf me, I remind myself of my roots. It helps keeping my feet on the ground (Ground Quotes)
The bigness of the world is redemption. Despair compresses you into a small space, and a depression is literally a hollow in the ground. To dig deeper into the self, to go underground, is sometimes necessary, but so is the other route of getting out of yourself, into the larger world, into the openness in which you need not clutch your story and your troubles so tightly to your chest (Ground Quotes)
I’m young. I’m pretty. And I’m willing to burn the whole world to the ground to get what I want (Ground Quotes)
Hysteria and degeneration have always existed; but they formerly showed themselves sporadically, and had no importance in the life of the whole community. It was only the vast fatigue which was experienced by the generation on which the multitudes of discoveries and innovations burst abruptly, imposing on it organic exigencies greatly surpassing its strength, which created favourable conditions under which these maladies could gain ground enormously, and become a danger to civilization (Ground Quotes)
Before getting to my mother’s house, I would always think of her on the porch or even on the street, sweeping. She had a light way of sweeping, as if removing the dirt were not as important as moving the broom over the ground. Her way of sweeping was symbolic; so airy, so fragile, with a broom she tried to sweep away all the horrors, all the loneliness, all the misery that had accompanied her all her life (Ground Quotes)
As we live our human lives, let us be like the water. Let us be conscious of the flow. Let us not forget the great ground of being that draws us on through life. Let us live in a knowing hope, aware that all being is in transition, that all movement is back to the source. Let us treat those around us as reminders of our illusionary individuality. We know that they are us and we are them connected in ways we cannot fathom. Let us grow in compassion for all beings, for they share our journey (Ground Quotes)
... even on the low ground of common sense I seemed to be called to be a missionary. Is the kingdom a harvest field? Then I thought it reasonable that I should seek to work where the work was most abundant and the workers fewest (Ground Quotes)
Pride looks back upon its past deeds, and calculating with nicety what it has done, it commits itself to rest; whereas humility looks to that which is before, and discovering how much ground remains to be trodden, it is active and vigilant. Having gained one height, pride looks down with complacency on that which is beneath it; humility looks up to a higher and yet higher elevation. The one keeps us on this earth, which is congenial to its nature; the other directs our eye, and tends to lift us up to heaven (Ground Quotes)
Every day you spend drifting away from your goals is a waste not only of that day, but also of the additional day it takes to regain lost ground (Ground Quotes)
There was a man that hated his footprints and his shadow, so one day he thought that if he ran fast enough, his footprints and shadow would not be able to follow him and then he never ever had to look at them again. He ran and he ran as fast as he could, but the shadow and the footprints had no problems keeping up to him. And he ran even faster and all of a sudden he fell dead to the ground. But if he been standing still there hadn’t been any footprints and if he had been resting under a tree his shadow had been swallowed of the trees shadow (Ground Quotes)
It is a good thing to proceed in order and to establish propositions. This is the way to gain ground and to progress with certainty (Ground Quotes)
I don’t mind flying. I always pass out before the plane leaves the ground (Ground Quotes)
I remember the first time I saw him. He was 13 and just floated over the ground like a cockier spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind (Ground Quotes)
The rules are drawn up by lawyers who are trying to protect the admirals and generals from the politicians; they’re not written by people who are worried about the guys on the ground getting shot (Ground Quotes)
In an orchard there should be enough to eat, enough to lay up, enough to be stolen, and enough to rot on the ground (Ground Quotes)
I thought a forest was made up entirely of trees, but now I know that the foundation lies below ground, in the fungi (Ground Quotes)
We may scatter the seeds of courtesy and kindness about us at little expense. Some of them will fall on good ground, and grow up into benevolence in the minds of others, and all of them will bear fruit of happiness in the bosom whence they spring (Ground Quotes)
Television excites me because it seems to be the last stamping ground of poetry, the last place where I hear women’s hair rhapsodically described, women’s faces acclaimed in odelike language (Ground Quotes)
It certainly is gravy every day above ground right now, after kicking that heroin habit. I’ve been given a second chance in life, and I don’t want to let a minute go by without enjoying it (Ground Quotes)
Please remember the hundreds of tiny empty stomachs in our communities. Winter is a tough time for birds and other small creatures as food can become buried beneath snow or frozen ground. Scatter seeds in your yard, nearby parks (Ground Quotes)
Forget aging. If you’re six feet above ground, it’s a good day (Ground Quotes)
If that means going onto their farms, releasing their animals and burning the place to the ground, that’s morally justifiable, in our opinion... There were always innocent people who got hurt somewhere along the way but it was important that those who oppressed one group of people be stopped, and we don’t see the animal liberation struggle being substantially different from these other struggles... A sustained campaign against a particular industry or a particular organization has the potential to be quite effective (Ground Quotes)
I always have a picture in my head of what I want. I will literally do anything to make it happen. I will kill myself; I will run myself into the ground to make it happen how I want it to happen (Ground Quotes)
