Open Quotes

You blindfold yourself and spin around for 10 times and then open your eyes and try to chase it down Picture Quote #1

Then I did the simplest thing in the world. I leaned down... and kissed him. And the world cracked open Picture Quote #1

This evening, I sat by an open window and read till the light was gone and the book was no more than a part of the darkness Picture Quote #1

For about seven years. I really like it there. There are a lot of great musicians. The scene is very open. A lot of stuff going on. People’s ears are really open, they are not closed. A lot of scenes here, people just get tunnel vision and are into one thing Picture Quote #1

To have some account of my thoughts, manners, acquaintance and actions, when the hour arrives in which time is more nimble than memory, is the reason which induces me to keep a journal: a journal in which I must confess my every thought, must open my whole heart! Picture Quote #1

I am much more open about categories of gender, and my feminism has been about women’s safety from violence, increased literacy, decreased poverty and more equality Picture Quote #1

The stars you see at night are the unblinking eyes of sleeping elephants, who sleep with one eye open to best keep watch over us Picture Quote #1

When the end comes, I hope it’s as strange as that. I hope that the sky tears open and the world is washed with colors that we’ve never seen before Picture Quote #1

Keep your hands open, and all the sands of the desert can pass through them. Close them, and all you can feel is a bit of grit Picture Quote #1

There is no more open door by which you can enter into the study of natural philosophy than by considering the physical phenomena of a candle Picture Quote #1

The fate of all explanation is to close one door only to have another fly wide open Picture Quote #1

Music for me is something I prefer to keep away form the whole business part of my life. I feel like everything I do, in a way, has some sort of business around it. So with my music I can have my privacy. If people don’t have to pay for it then I think they can be a little more open to new ideas Picture Quote #1

When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him Picture Quote #1

There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself Picture Quote #1

I am a camera with its shutter open, quite passive, recording, not thinking. Recording the man shaving at the window opposite and the woman in the kimono washing her hair. Some day, all this will have to be developed, carefully printed, fixed Picture Quote #1

What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life? The world would split open Picture Quote #1

To open up the new, to look back on the old may bring forth like discoveries in the practice of art Picture Quote #1

The chivalrous man who holds a door open or signals a woman to go ahead of him when he’s driving is negotiating both status and connection Picture Quote #1

Tis e’er the wont of simple folk to prize the deed and o’erlook the motive, and of learned folk to discount the deed and lay open the soul of the doer Picture Quote #1

I measure my life in sentences pressed out, line by line, like the lustrous ooze on the underside of the snail, the snail’s secret open seam, its wound, leaking attar Picture Quote #1

If they cut my bald head open, they will find one big boxing glove. That’s all I am. I live it Picture Quote #1

We must be steady enough in ourselves, to be open and to let the winds of life blow through us, to be our breath, our inspiration Picture Quote #1

The whole fauna of human fantasies, their marine vegetation, drifts and luxuriates in the dimly lit zones of human activity, as though plaiting thick tresses of darkness. Here, too, appear the lighthouses of the mind, with their outward resemblance to less pure symbols. The gateway to mystery swings open at the touch of human weakness and we have entered the realms of darkness. One false step, one slurred syllable together reveal a man’s thoughts Picture Quote #1

When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being Picture Quote #1

The prevailing attunement is at any given time the condition of our openness for perceiving and dealing with what we encounter; the pitch at which our existence is vibrating. What we call moods, feelings, affects, emotions, and states are the concrete modes in which the possibilities for being open are fulfilled. They are at the same time the modes in which this perceptive openness can be narrowed, distorted, or closed off Picture Quote #1

A new vision and understanding of something demands a new way of talking about it, for the old terminology gets in the way of this effort. Stubbornly entrenched behind the words coined by a particular conceptual orientation are its secrete prejudices. Any attempt to open out an adequately human vista onto the phenomena of undisturbed existence must include a critique of the most important idea of traditional biology, physiology, and psychology Picture Quote #1

There can be no reconciliation where there is no open warfare. There must be a battle, a brave boisterous battle, with pennants waving and cannon roaring, before there can be peaceful treaties and enthusiastic shaking of hands Picture Quote #1

I do not accept any absolute formulas for living. No preconceived code can see ahead to everything that can happen in a man’s life. As we live, we grow and our beliefs change. They must change. So I think we should live with this constant discovery. We should be open to this adventure in heightened awareness of living. We should stake our whole existence on our willingness to explore and experience Picture Quote #1

If I held all the thoughts of the world in my hand, I would be careful not to open it Picture Quote #1
