Mortal Quotes

If kind parents love their children and delight in their happiness, then he who is perfect goodness in sending abroad mortal contagions doth assuredly direct their use Picture Quote #1

No mortal man has ever served at the same time his passions and his best interests Picture Quote #1

A mortal lives not through that breath that flows in and that flows out. The source of his life is another and this causes the breath to flow Picture Quote #1

That thing of hell and eternal punishment is the most absurd, as well as the most disagreeable thought that ever entered into the head of mortal man Picture Quote #1

A man has only one way of being immortal on earth: he has to forget he is a mortal Picture Quote #1

Such sins, even if they do not kill all grace in us, do harm, nevertheless; and though they are only venial in themselves, they make us apt, ready, and inclined to lose grace and to fall into mortal sin Picture Quote #1

Most of the vices and mortal sins condemned today correspond to inclinations that were purely adaptive or at least harmless in primitive man Picture Quote #1

So all of these things are going on that make you wake up and realize you are a mortal person. You can choose to cruise through your life, but if you do, you’re going to open your eyes at some point, and it’s gone Picture Quote #1

I want to hear as much music as I possibly can before I leave this mortal coil but it’s impossible to hear it all because there’s so much of it Picture Quote #1

Mountains inspire awe in any human person who has a soul. They remind us of our frailty, our unimportance, of the briefness of our span on this earth. They touch the heavens, and sail serenely at an altitude beyond even the imaginings of a mere mortal Picture Quote #1

Christendom, as an effect, must be accounted for. It is too large for a mortal cause Picture Quote #1

Before none of your printed idols do I bend in acquiescence, and he who saith thou shalt to me is my mortal foe! Picture Quote #1

There is a mortal breed most full of futility. In contempt of what is at hand, they strain into the future, hunting impossibilities on the wings of ineffectual hopes Picture Quote #1

Wouldn’t a laugh serve us better than to battle it out with our mortal souls? Picture Quote #1

Nothing mortal is enduring, and there is nothing sweet which does not presently end in bitterness Picture Quote #1

This socialism will develop in all its phases until it reaches its own extremes and absurdities. Then once again a cry of denial will break from the titanic chest of the revolutionary minority and again a mortal struggle will begin, in which socialism will play the role of contemporary conservatism and will be overwhelmed in the subsequent revolution, as yet unknown to us Picture Quote #1

Good intentions are very mortal and perishable things. Like very mellow and choice fruit, they are difficult to keep Picture Quote #1

The loveliest, sweetest flower that bloomed in paradise, and the first that died, has rarely blossomed since on mortal soil. It is so frail, so delicate, a thing, it is gone if it but look upon itself; and she who ventures to esteem it hers proves by that single thought she has it not Picture Quote #1

I feel so entirely in my element with a full orchestra; even if my mortal enemies were marshalled before me, I could lead them, master them, surround them, or repulse them Picture Quote #1

A tale is told of twin boys born to different mothers. One is dark by nature, the other light. One is rich, the other poor. One is harsh, the other gentle. One is forever youthful, the other old before his time. One is mortal. They share no bond of blood or sympathy, but they are twins nonetheless. They each live without ever knowing that they are brothers. They each die fighting the blind God Picture Quote #1

You are human and mortal; we are the sum of our weak moments and our strong Picture Quote #1

I’m smiled out, talked out, quipped out, socialized so far from any being, I need the weight of mortal silences to get realized back into myself Picture Quote #1

Every day, a piece of music, a short story, or a poem dies because its existence is no longer justified in our time. And things that were once considered immortal have become mortal again, no one knows them anymore. Even though they deserve to survive Picture Quote #1

We human beings build houses because we’re alive but we write books because we’re mortal. We live in groups because we’re sociable but we read because we know we’re alone. Reading offers a kind of companionship that takes no one’s place but that no one can replace either. It offers no definitive explanation of our destiny but links us inextricably to life. Its tiny secret links remind us of how paradoxically happy we are to be alive while illuminating how tragically absurd life is Picture Quote #1

No one awakens in the morning thinking they will die that day. Not a saint or a sinner. Not even a condemned killer. We all know were mortal, and yet we all believe we’ll live forever Picture Quote #1

A kiss can be like the world turning over. It can be like the tide of a dragon’s dream washing through the unseen world that is hidden to mortal eyes but that nevertheless permeates our being. It can be hot and cold together, as vast as the heavens and yet specific to the pressure of hands and the parting of lips. It raised more intense feelings than I had expected, like being engulfed in a storm of lightning Picture Quote #1

... They are merely scars, not mortal wounds and you must use them to propel you forward Picture Quote #1

And somewhat as in blind night, on a mild sea, a sailor may be made aware of an iceberg, fanged and mortal, bearing invisibly near, by the unwarned charm of its breath, nothingness now revealed itself: that permanent night upon which the stars in their expiring generations are less than the glinting of gnats, and nebulae, more trivial than winter breath; that darkness in which eternity lies bent and pale, a dead snake in a jar, and infinity is the sparkling of a wren blown out to sea; that inconceivable chasm of invulnerable silence in which cataclysms of galaxies rave mute as amber Picture Quote #1

Perhaps a hero is someone who doesn’t register his own vulnerability. Is it courage, then, if you’re too daft to know you’re mortal? Picture Quote #1
