Text Quotes
I don’t have much in the way of money or worldly possessions, I’m not beautiful, intelligent or clever, but I’m happy, and I intend to stay that way! I was born happy, I love people, I have a trusting nature, and I’d like everyone else to be happy too  (Possessions Quotes) Right, but you know, what would any of us lose by losing our possessions. Maybe we would gain something, like relationships, like the beauty of good friends, intimacy, you know what I mean, man? Like we wouldn’t be losing anything if we lost our stuff, we’d be gaining everything  (Possessions Quotes) We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch tv too much. We have multiplied our possessions but reduces our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We’ve learned how to make a living but not a life. We’ve added years to life, not life to years  (Possessions Quotes) People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue  (Possessions Quotes) The human heart is an idol factory that takes good things like a successful career, love, material possessions, even family, and turns them into ultimate things. Our hearts deify them as the center of our lives, because, we think, they can give us significance and security, safety and fulfillment, if we attain them  (Possessions Quotes) Material possessions in themselves are good. We would not survive for long without money, clothing, shelter and food. Yet if we refuse to share what we have with the hungry and the poor, we make of our possessions a false God. How many voices in our materialist society tell us that happiness is to be found by acquiring as many possessions and luxuries as we can! But this is to make possessions into a false God. Instead of bringing life, they bring death  (Possessions Quotes) These wars appear also to have given its death blow to colonialism and to imperialism in its colonial form, under which weaker peoples were treated as possessions to be economically exploited. At least we hope that such colonialism is on the way out  (Possessions Quotes) If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven  (Possessions Quotes) The richness of the world, all artificial pleasures, have the taste of sickness and give off a smell of death in the face of certain spiritual possessions  (Possessions Quotes) Things which have most hold on us, as the concealment of our few possessions, are often a mere nothing. It is a nothing which our imagination magnifies into a mountain  (Possessions Quotes) Equality of possessions is no doubt right, but, as men could not make might obey right, they have made right obey might. 299  (Possessions Quotes) The aim of education is to strengthen and multiply the powers and activities of the mind rather than to increase its possessions  (Possessions Quotes) Possessions of this world have not been for the exclusive use by such or such category of individuals  (Possessions Quotes) I grew with it, and I used to go to see the monks, who had no possessions, even more extreme than my mother  (Possessions Quotes) It’s time we permanently repeal the tax on possessions that people leave to their children  (Possessions Quotes) Health is the greatest of all possessions; a pale cobbler is better than a sick king  (Possessions Quotes) In particular, it is absurd to hope to banish envy of other people’s possessions or fortunes, if only because the spirit of envy can lead to emulation and ambition and have positive consequences  (Possessions Quotes) If man in the state of nature be so free, as has been said; if he be absolute lord of his own person and possessions, equal to the greatest, and subject to no body, why will he part with his freedom?  (Possessions Quotes) Health is the greatest of all possessions, and it is a maxim with me that a hale cobbler is a better man than a sick king  (Possessions Quotes) Our material possessions, like our joys, are enhanced in value by being shared. Hoarded and unimproved property can only afford satisfaction to a miser  (Possessions Quotes) It is the edge and temper of the blade that make a good sword, not the richness of the scabbard, and so it is not money or possessions that make men considerable, but virtue  (Possessions Quotes) Your most precious, valued possessions and your greatest powers are invisible and intangible. No one can take them. You, and you alone, can give them. You will receive abundance for your giving  (Possessions Quotes) Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future  (Possessions Quotes) We think of our land and water and human resources not as static and sterile possessions but as life giving assets to be directed by wise provisions for future days  (Possessions Quotes) Never measure your life by possessions. Measure it by the hearts you’ve touched, the smiles you created and the love you shared  (Possessions Quotes) Health, power, riches, possessions and honor can be snatched from you, but your will is irrevocably your own  (Possessions Quotes) Time is one of our most valuable possessions. Use it wisely. Remind yourselves often that things that matter most should not be left to the mercy of things that matter the least  (Possessions Quotes) I draw from my family and my friends and I feel like that small-town person. The achievements, the materialistic possessions have really become to mean less. They mean nothing  (Possessions Quotes) The design of those commissioners, frigates and warlike force is directed rather against Long Island and these your Honors’ possessions, than to the imagined reform of New England  (Possessions Quotes) And, of course, it must be asked: is it proper to transact with the Turks for the most reassured of Greek possessions when Greece is under Turkish invasion and subjugation  (Possessions Quotes)
