Height Quotes

Climbing is a heroic liberating act; and height spontaneously symbolizes things of high value, be it in the value of worldly power or of spirituality. To rise in an elevator, balloon, or airplane is to experience being liberated from weight, sublimated, invested with superhuman abilities. In addition, to rise from the earth is to approach the realm of light and overview. Therefore the negative overcoming of weight is at the same time the positive achievement of enlightenment and an unobstructed outlook Picture Quote #1

I was by birth a gentleman, living neither in any considerable height nor yet in obscurity Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

The height of success is when you break your business, that is what I say! Just when you think things are really, really going well, that’s the time to change Picture Quote #1

With buildering, I get to keep that element of danger. Plus, I very much like the feeling of height, and buildings have even more of a feeling of height than rock faces Picture Quote #1

Types really don’t matter. I have been accused of preferring blondes. But I have known some mighty attractive redheads, brunettes, and yes, women with grey hair. Age, height, weight haven’t anything to do with glamour Picture Quote #1

A city is not gauged by its length and width, but by the broadness of its vision and the height of its dreams Picture Quote #1

I looked back at the summit of the mountain, which seemed but a cubit high in comparison with the height of human contemplation, were in not too often merged in the corruptions of the earth Picture Quote #1

You won’t often find me in a pair of killer heels: my heel height doesn’t rise above two and a half inches, as I would just fall over! Picture Quote #1

It is the height of professionalism to be able to make an ordinary piece of music sound good. When playing routine melodic studies the player must treat them as if they are musical value Picture Quote #1

Big mountains are a completely different world: snow, ice, rocks, sky, and thin air. You cannot conquer them, only rise to their height for a short time; and for that they demand a great deal. The struggle is not with the enemy, or a competitor like in sports, but with yourself, with the feelings of weakness and inadequacy. That struggle appeals to me. It is why I became a mountaineer Picture Quote #1

The fall of a given weight from a height of around 365 meters corresponds to the heating of an equal weight of water from 0° to 1° Picture Quote #1

I hate roses. Don’t you? It’s all right if you can hide them in a cutting garden, but I think a rose garden is the height of ick Picture Quote #1

For a moment man is a boy, for a moment a lovesick youth, for a moment bereft of wealth, for a moment in the height of prosperity; then at life’s end with limbs worn out by old age and wrinkles adorning his face, like an actor he retires behind the curtain of death Picture Quote #1

When you play arenas you can create whatever you want. At a theater the height of the stage and the limitations of the theater can make you feel more separate from the audience Picture Quote #1

I fear that to fall in love with you is to fall from a great and gruesome height Picture Quote #1

Reaching the height of 6 ft. 5 in.; I never expected to be that tall. I just shot up Picture Quote #1

My goal is just to get healthy as far as what my ideal weight has to be for my height Picture Quote #1

I love an arcade. I love a boardwalk game. But I also love a rollercoaster. Though I think the rollercoaster love comes from the fact that it took a really long time for me to reach the height requirement, so I promised myself very early on that when I reach that, I will not take it for granted Picture Quote #1

I’m a healthy weight for my height, and I like how I look on most days Picture Quote #1

I find it actually the height of romance to legally bind yourself to someone because you’re really taking care of someone, and letting them take care of you. I actually have no cynicism about that Picture Quote #1

Birds teach us something very important: To whatever height you rise, you will finally come down to the ground! Picture Quote #1

However, the balloon, lightened of heavy articles, such as ammunition, arms, and provisions, had risen into the higher layers of the atmosphere, to a height of 4,500 feet. The voyagers, after having discovered that the sea extended beneath them, and thinking the dangers above less dreadful than those below, did not hesitate to throw overboard even their most useful articles, while they endeavored to lose no more of that fluid, the life of their enterprise, which sustained them above the abyss Picture Quote #1

If ever you come upon a grove of ancient trees which have grown to an exceptional height, shutting out a view of sky by a veil of pleached and intertwining branches, then the loftiness of the forest, the seclusion of the spot and your marvel at the thick unbroken shade in the midst of the open spaces, will prove to you the presence of deity Picture Quote #1

For me, I was in school and I pushed myself to be a good student, just because that’s the type of person I was, but I never had a connection to any of it. I don’t think my brain functioned in a way that was at its height, when I was in school. I needed something like art to really value the way my mind works. I wasn’t reaching my full potential by sitting in a classroom and reading from a book. My mind didn’t work that way Picture Quote #1

Whoever is related to me in the height of his aspirations will experience veritable ecstasies of learning; for I come from heights that no bird ever reached in its flight, I know abysses into which no foot ever strayed Picture Quote #1

Joy is at its keenest when contrasted with sorrow, courage at its height when it follows fear, faith at its noblest when it grows from doubt Picture Quote #1

As a seer, I naturally can see the evolutionary potential of a being. But the potential will not necessarily be actualized. A particular being will not necessarily realize their full height Picture Quote #1
