Mercy Quotes

It is only shallow people who require years to get rid of an emotion. A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them Picture Quote #1

Much as we wish, not one of us can bring back yesterday or shape tomorrow. Only today is ours, and it will not be ours for long, and once it is gone it will never in all time be ours again. Thou only knowest what it holds in store for us, yet even we know something of what it will hold. The chance to speak the truth, to show mercy, to ease another’s burden. The chance to resist evil, to remember all the good times and good people of our past, to be brave, to be strong, to be glad Picture Quote #1

If human beings can be trained for cruelty and greed and a belief in power which comes through hate and fear and force, certainly we can train equally well for greatness and mercy and the power of love which comes because of the strength of the good qualities to be found in the soul of every human being Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you have tons of money, and still you are miserable, you are not satisfied. The bow of gratitude and arrow of mercy will give you everything. Gratitude will turn your attitude into mercy, mercy will bring you dharma, and dharma will give you solid prosperity Picture Quote #1

If you have to look along the shaft of an arrow from the wrong end, if a man has you entirely at his mercy, then hope like hell that man is an evil man. Because the evil like power... they will talk, they will gloat. So hope like hell your captor is an evil man. A good man will kill you with hardly a word Picture Quote #1

Peace comes from the absence of fear, from a consciousness of trust, from a deep, underlying faith in the absolute goodness and mercy, the final integrity of the universe in which we live, and of every cause to which we give our thought, our time and our attention Picture Quote #1

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain but for the heart to conquer it. Let me not look for allies in life’s battlefield but to my own strength. Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved but hope for the patience to win my freedom. Grant me that I may not be a coward, feeling your mercy in my success alone; but let me find the grasp of your hand in my failure Picture Quote #1

The works of mercy are the opposite of the works of war, feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, nursing the sick, visiting the prisoner. But we are destroying crops, setting fire to entire villages and to the people in them. We are not performing the works of mercy but the works of war Picture Quote #1

To show mercy is not naïve. To hold out against the end of hope is not stupidity or madness. It is fundamentally human. Of course... We are all doomed; we are all poisoned from our birth by the rot of stars. That does not mean we should succumb... to the seductive fallacy of despair, the dark tide that would drown us. You may think I’m stupid, you may call me a madman and a fool, but at least I stand upright in a fallen world Picture Quote #1

A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance, nor wish it to prevail through the power of the majority. There is but little virtue in the action of masses of men. When the majority shall at length vote for the abolition of slavery, it will be because they are indifferent to slavery, or because there is but little slavery left to be abolished by their vote. They will then be the only slaves. Only his vote can hasten the abolition of slavery who asserts his own freedom by his vote Picture Quote #1

Lord, bless our enemies; have mercy upon them, may they turn their course and let us alone, and let us live in peace at our homes in our own native land Picture Quote #1

I was surrounded at the time by about a dozen of the enemy, whose clubs rattled upon me without mercy, and the strokes of my sabre were rendered uncertain by the energetic pushes of an attendant who thus hoped to save me Picture Quote #1

You are never to lose sight of nature; the instant you do, you are all abroad, at the mercy of every gust of fashion, without knowing or seeing the point to which you ought to steer Picture Quote #1

God’s mercy is a holy mercy, which knows how to pardon sin, not to protect it; it is a sanctuary for the penitent, not for the presumptuous Picture Quote #1

Mercy means that you don’t receive the punishment you deserve, but grace means that you do receive the blessings you didn’t earn Picture Quote #1

We are sufficiently at the mercy of machines, roger; if our music must necessarily be mechanical, then it is time for us to throw in the sponge, and abandon all hope for the future of humanity Picture Quote #1

He who demands mercy and shows none burns the bridges over which he himself must later pass Picture Quote #1

All great things are simple, and many can be expressed in single words: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope Picture Quote #1

I am not one of those who left the land to the mercy of its enemies. Their flattery leaves me cold, my songs are not for them to praise Picture Quote #1

Justice could be cruel, and crueler yet necessity, but mercy was the cruelest thing of all Picture Quote #1

That was the most terrible thing that a woman could to a decent man: look vulnerable and ask him for mercy. If he refused her he’d be denying all his instincts as a provider and protector Picture Quote #1

The dimensions of this mercy are above my thoughts. It is for aught I know, a crowning mercy Picture Quote #1

There is mercy in nature, it is accidental. Nature is neither kind nor cruel but indifferent Picture Quote #1

Dreaming of mercy st. wear your inside out dreaming of mercy in your daddy’s arms again Picture Quote #1

I’ve thrown myself on your mercy, told you that without your help I’m utterly lost. What else is there? She suddenly moved close to him on the settee and cried angrily: Can I buy you with my body? Picture Quote #1

For the first time in her life she stood naked in the open air, at the mercy of the sun, the breeze that beat upon her, and the waves that invited her Picture Quote #1

I should, indeed, prefer twenty guilty men to escape death through mercy, than one innocent to be condemned unjustly Picture Quote #1

Chutzpa is that quality enshrined in a man who, having killed his mother and father, throws himself on the mercy of the court because he is an orphan Picture Quote #1

Teach me to feel another’s woe. To hide the fault I see: That the mercy I show to others; that mercy also show to me Picture Quote #1

Nothing is ever lost by courtesy. It is the cheapest of the pleasures; costs nothing and conveys much. It pleases him who gives and ; him who receives, and thus, like mercy, it is twice blessed Picture Quote #1
