Quench Quotes

Quench love, and what is left of a man’s life but the folding of a few jointed bones and square inches of flesh? Who would call that life? Picture Quote #1

Whatever we attempt is a reflection of our inner thirst, which we hope to quench in all these external ways. What we are looking for lies within us, and if we gave out time and energy to an interior search, we would come across it much faster, since that is the only place where it is to be found Picture Quote #1

That is the conviction we must come to in our meditation, that the darkness cannot quench the light Picture Quote #1

You can tell people of the need to struggle, but when the powerless start to see that they really can make a difference, nothing can quench the fire Picture Quote #1

And why does it make you sad to see how everything hangs by such thin and whimsical threads? Because you’re a dreamer, an incredible dreamer, with a tiny spark hidden somewhere inside you which cannot die, which even you cannot kill or quench and which tortures you horribly because all the odds are against its continual burning. In the midst of the foulest decay and putrid savagery, this spark speaks to you of beauty, of human warmth and kindness, of goodness, of greatness, of heroism, of martyrdom, and it speaks to you of love Picture Quote #1

I know the compassion of others is a relief at first. I don’t despise it. But it can’t quench pain, it slips through your soul as through a sieve. And when our suffering has been dragged from one pity to another, as from one mouth to another, we can no longer respect or love it Picture Quote #1

Objects close to the eye shut out much larger objects on the horizon; and splendors born only of the earth eclipse the stars. So it is with people who sometimes cover the entire disc of eternity with a dollar, and so quench transcendent glories with a little shining dust Picture Quote #1

I cannot weep, for all my body's moisture scarce serves to quench my furnace - burning heart; nor can my tongue unload my heart's great burden, for selfsame wind that I should speak withal is kindling coals that fires all my breast and burns me up with flames that tears would quench Picture Quote #1
