Text Quotes
The first of the four noble truths of Buddhism, that there is suffering in life, was enormously important to me. No one had ever said it out loud. That had been my experience, of course, but no one had ever talked about it. I didn’t know what to do with all the fear and emotions within, and here was the Buddha saying this truth right out loud.  (Noble Quotes) The pure air and dazzling snow belong to things beyond the reach of all personal feeling, almost beyond the reach of life. Yet such things are a part of our life, neither the least noble nor the most terrible.  (Noble Quotes) The actions of a leader are always criticised by scholars as well as common men. A scholar has no obligation to produce result, so he is free to rebuke leaders for not sticking to noble means. Common men envy leaders their position and power, thus feeling happy in vilifying them to pull them down to their own levels.  (Noble Quotes) Feeling important is a vice, not a virtue, however concealed as participation in something noble  (Noble Quotes) Any noble cause will encounter its share of setbacks. The strength of that cause is measured in how the men who fight for it respond. We refuse to give up, which is why we will prevail eventually.  (Noble Quotes) There are not many things finer in our murderous species than this noble curiosity, this restless and reckless passion to understand.  (Noble Quotes) It is a peculiar art form, but I think it’s a necessary art form - and I do believe it’s a noble art form.  (Noble Quotes) One day I got an invite to help the Christina Noble Foundation, and by this stage, I’d already been talking about her for 10 years. I said ‘yes’ right away, and that was the first time I met her.  (Noble Quotes) ... the four noble truths: that there is suffering, that it has an origin, that there is a cessation of suffering, and that there is a path to that cessation.  (Noble Quotes) We believe in self creation. That’s why Buddhists believe in the Four Noble Truths.  (Noble Quotes) For a people is only as great, as free, as lofty, as advanced as its women are free, noble and progressive.  (Noble Quotes) A noble man is led far by woman’s gentle words. [Ger., Ein edler Mann wird durch ein gutes Wort Der Frauen weit gefuhrt.]  (Noble Quotes) In its primary aspect, a painting has no more spiritual message than an exquisite fragment of Venetian glass. The channels by which all noble and imaginative work in painting should touch the soul are not those of the truths of lives.  (Noble Quotes) How was she created? I’m not sure if you realize this, but it was in God’s image. How can anybody dare to speak ill of something which bears such a noble imprint?  (Noble Quotes) There is no cause so good or noble that it will not attract fuggheads; and the fuggheads will get all the press.  (Noble Quotes) This is the entire spiritual life, Ananda, that is, good friendship, good companionship, good comradeship. When a monk has a good friend, a good companion, a good comrade, it is to be expected that he will develop and cultivate the Noble Eightfold Path.  (Noble Quotes) The noble man is chiefly concerned with wisdom and friendship; of these, the former is a mortal good, the latter and immortal one.  (Noble Quotes) It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humour.  (Noble Quotes) Love is the supreme good; it is the overflowing life, the giving of ourselves to noble ends and causes.  (Noble Quotes) There are no good wars or bad wars. The only thing bad about a war is to lose it. All wars have been fought for a so-called good Cause on both sides. But only the victor’s Cause becomes history’s Noble Cause. It’s not a matter of who is right or who is wrong, it’s a matter of who has the best generals and the better army!  (Noble Quotes) Wine and cheese are ageless companions, like aspirin and aches, or June and moon, or good people and noble ventures.  (Noble Quotes) Born of a noble father and a saintly mother, President Hinckley learned as a young boy the truths of the restored gospel from his faithful parents. He came to respect deeply and value highly his pioneer heritage.  (Noble Quotes) Gratitude is a mark of a noble soul and a refined character. We like to be around those who are grateful.  (Noble Quotes) The task of history is to hold out for reprobation every evil word and deed, and to hold out for praise every great and noble word and deed.  (Noble Quotes) In order to create you have to believe in your ability to do so and that often means excluding whole chunks of normal life, and, of course, pumping yourself up as much as possible as a way of keeping on. Sort of cheering for yourself in the great football stadium of life. (Barnes and Noble Review, email dialogue with Cameron Martin, Feb. 09, 2009)  (Noble Quotes) The belief that one’s suffering has a greater cosmic purpose, and is thus more exciting and more noble, well, it made a lot of sense to me.  (Noble Quotes) From a sensitive woman’s heart springs the happiness of mankind, and from the kindness of her noble spirit comes mankind’s affection.  (Noble Quotes) It is so unsatisfactory to read a noble passage and have no one you love at hand to share the happiness with you. And it is unsatisfactory to read to one’s self anyhow - for the uttered voice so heightens the expression.  (Noble Quotes) O men! you can take life easily but, remember, none of you can give life! So, have mercy, have compassion! And, never forget, that compassion makes the world noble and beautiful.  (Noble Quotes) By which I get my wealth-- And very gladly will I drink Your Honour’s noble health  (Noble Quotes)
