Text Quotes
Symbolism is no mere idle fancy or corrupt degeneration: it is inherent in the very texture of human life  (Mere Quotes) We must see that consciousness is neither an isolated soul nor the mere function of a single nervous system, but of that totality of interrelated stars and galaxies which makes a nervous system possible  (Mere Quotes) If in this hell of a world one can bring a little joy and peace even for a day into the heart of a single person, that much alone is true; this I have learnt after suffering all my life; all else is mere moonshine  (Mere Quotes) The average is the borderline that keeps mere men in their place. Those who step over the line are heroes by the very act. Go  (Mere Quotes) It is a mere question of time when men will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very wheelwork of nature  (Mere Quotes) No one’s ready for a thing, until they believe that they can acquire it. The state of mind must be belief and not mere hope or wish  (Mere Quotes) I am no indiscriminate novel reader. The mere trash of the common circulating library I hold in the highest contempt  (Mere Quotes) Intelligence increases mere physical ability one half. The use of the head abridges the labor of the hands  (Mere Quotes) Men endure the losses that befall them by mere casualty with more patience than the damages they sustain by injustice  (Mere Quotes) So far as the mere imparting of information is concerned, no university has had any justification for existence since the popularization of printing in the fifteenth century  (Mere Quotes) And a government that accepts that it will be judged more by its deeds than by its mere words  (Mere Quotes) Seek the counsel of men who will tell you the truth about yourself, even if it hurts you to hear it. Mere commendation will not bring the improvement you need  (Mere Quotes) I should write for the mere yearning and fondness I have for the beautiful, even if my night’s labors should be burnt every morning and no eye shine upon them  (Mere Quotes) The function of ritual... is to give form to the human life, not in the way of a mere surface arrangement, but in depth  (Mere Quotes) Independent inquiry is needed in your search for truth, not dependence on anyone else’s view or a mere book  (Mere Quotes) If mere mechanical efficiency can make everyone a martial artist, then all is well. Unfortunately, combat, like freedom, is something that can not be preconceived  (Mere Quotes) Peace is not just the mere absence of violence or disturbance. It’s when there is a possibility of conflict, but you deliberately avoid violence and adopt methods to solve the problem through peaceful means. That is real peace  (Mere Quotes) The ideal doctor would be a man endowed with profound knowledge of life and of the soul, intuitively divining any suffering or disorder of whatever kind, and restoring peace by his mere presence  (Mere Quotes) Ordinary love is mere animal attraction. Otherwise why is the distinction between the sexes? If one kneels before an image, it is dreadful idolatry; but if one kneels before husband or wife, it is quite permissible!  (Mere Quotes) A sense of a wider meaning to one’s existence is what raises a man beyond mere getting and spending. If he lacks this sense, he is lost and miserable  (Mere Quotes) Please go on, make your threats. I don’t like to submit to mere implication  (Mere Quotes) It is beneath human dignity to lose one’s individuality and become a mere cog in the machine  (Mere Quotes) The mere possession of a gun is, in itself, an urge to kill, not only by design, but by accident, by madness, by fright, by bravado  (Mere Quotes) I’m just the mere shadow of my former selfishness. I crave the silhouette of your kiss  (Mere Quotes) If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge, there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man’s future. For what is the use of transmitting knowledge if the individual’s total development lags behind?  (Mere Quotes) You know, I think that allowing somebody, one mere person to believe that he or she is like, the vessel you know, like the font and the essence and the source of all divine, creative, unknowable, eternal mystery is just a smidge too much responsibility to put on one fragile, human psyche. It’s like asking somebody to swallow the sun  (Mere Quotes) The literary world is made up of little confederacies, each looking upon its own members as the lights of the universe; and considering all others as mere transient meteors, doomed to soon fall and be forgotten, while its own luminaries are to shine steadily into immortality  (Mere Quotes) Realism should only be the means of expression of religious genius... or, at the other extreme, the artistic expressions of monkeys which are quite satisfied with mere imitation. In fact, art is never realistic though sometimes it is tempted to be. To be really realistic a description would have to be endless  (Mere Quotes) Knowledge, a rude unprofitable mass, the mere materials with which wisdom builds, till smoothed and squared and fitted to its place, does but encumber whom it seems to enrich. Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much; wisdom is humble that he knows no more  (Mere Quotes) Learning is, in too many cases, but a foil to common sense; a substitute for true knowledge. Books are less often made use of as spectacles to look at nature with, than as blinds to keep out its strong light and shifting scenery from weak eyes and indolent dispositions. The learned are mere literary drudges  (Mere Quotes)
