Text Quotes
And he was seldom out of sight of the new bridges, which had married beautiful womanly Brooklyn to her rich uncle, Manhattan; had put the city's hand out to the country; and were the end of the past because they spanned not only distance and deep water but dreams and time (R B Quotes)
The beauty of truth is that it need not be proclaimed or believed. It skips from soul to soul, changing form each time it touches, but it is what it is, I have seen it, and someday you will, too (R B Quotes)
But cities aren't like people; they live on and on, even though their reason for being where they are has gone downriver and out to sea (R B Quotes)
We like it the way it is. We're enjoying the oscillating balances, the ongoing war between good and evil, the wonderful small triumphs of the soul. Perhaps it's too soon to end all that. Perhaps we need some more time to think things out (R B Quotes)
The source of a river is narrow. If you could jump over it in a twinkle of an eye at the source, be sure to ponder before you jump over it at its mid or its estuary (R B Quotes)
When I look at people fighting with ammunition and weapons of all kind I ponder within me;somehow as a cynic. Ammunition's and weapons are good for war; Yes, they are better necessities to winning battle but the best choice of weapons are neither ammunition nor the strength of a battalion of army but wisdom; a pen on a paper backed by a great mind (R B Quotes)
The Monster Ball is by nature a protest: A youth church experience to speak out and celebrate against all forms of discrimination prejudice (R B Quotes)
The substance of fictional architecture is not bricks and mortar but evanescent consciousness. Sometimes, therefore, a door opens onto a hallway impossibly, and the placement of our heating ducts and storage space borders on the irresponsible. I have great trouble, myself, in imagining the floor plans of split-level homes, though I feel they are important sites of the American condition (R B Quotes)
Poetry, the genre of purest beauty, was born of a truncated woman: her head severed from her body with a sword, a symbolic penis (R B Quotes)
The pornographers actually use our bodies as their language. We are their speech.... Protecting what they 'say' means protecting what they do to us, how they do it. It means protecting their sadism on our bodies, because that is how they write: not like a writer at all; like a torturer (R B Quotes)
They have never bothered to think the matter out for themselves, but have heard about Him from others, and have put belief in Him into the back of their minds along with the various odds and ends that make up their total creed. To many others God is but an ideal, another name for goodness, or beauty, or truth; or He is law, or life, or the creative impulse back of the phenomena of existence (R B Quotes)
He showed the world what can be done against the odds, against a superpower. He showed - and this is where Vietnam and Iraq come in, that in a war between an imperialist occupier and the people who actually live there, the people will eventually prevail. They know the terrain. They have more at stake. They have nowhere else to go (R B Quotes)
Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the Earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so (R B Quotes)
The essence of oppression is that one is defined from the outside by those who define themselves as superior by criteria of their own choice (R B Quotes)
I recognized him then; that is, I finally comprehended what I had known but had never been able to formulate: he had always been complete. He had finished the work of becoming himself, long before any of us could even imagine such a feat was possible (R B Quotes)
It seemed that we loved each other better when there were large swaths of two continents between us. The daily work of love was often hard to perform at home (R B Quotes)
Isabel's indelible absence is now an organ in our bodies whose sole function is a continuous secretion of sorrow (R B Quotes)
You've never been married, so you don't know, but it is a fragile thing. Nothing ever goes away, everything stays inside it. It is a different reality (R B Quotes)
Loneliness is the price we have to pay for being born in this modern world, so full of freedom, independence and our own egotistical selves (R B Quotes)
What I suddenly understood was that a thank-you note isn't the price you pay for receiving a gift, as so many children think it is, a kind of minimum tribute or toll, but an opportunity to count your blessings. And gratitude isn't what you give in exchange for something; it's what you feel when you are blessed - blessed to have family and friends who care about you, and who want to see you happy. Hence the joy from thanking (R B Quotes)
When you wanna do something and that little impulse goes off in your brain and says "Ooh, don't do it!", you gotta go for it. That's how you're gonna be the person you wanna be (R B Quotes)
Mom had always taught all of us to examine decisions by reversibility - that is, to hedge our bets. When you couldn't decide between two things, she suggested you choose the one that allowed you to change course if necessary. Not the road less traveled but the road with the exit ramp (R B Quotes)
Shakespeare is one of the last books one should like to give up, perhaps the one just before the dying service in a large prayer book (R B Quotes)
And if the book is too silly, I find that it's often because the writer doesn't really have anything to say - or there are no values. Or because the whole book is just a lead-up to a trick at the end. If you read the end first, you may have much less patience for wasting time with that kind of book. Even a well - written book can be silly and a waste of time (R B Quotes)
... two different kinds of Japanese psychotherapies, one based on getting people to stop using feelings as an excuse for their actions and the other based on getting people to practice gratitude (R B Quotes)
The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one's soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive - you are leaking (R B Quotes)
You see control can never be a means to any practical end. … control can never be a means to anything but more control … like junk (R B Quotes)
Nursed amid her noise, her crowds, her beloved smoke, what have I been doing all my life, if I have not lent out my heart with usury to such scenes? (R B Quotes)
Intelligence and war are games, perhaps the only meaningful games left. If any player becomes too proficient, the game is threatened with termination (R B Quotes)
Christ, and after that everything is “automatic. ” This is because of our failure to lay a scriptural emphasis in our evangelical preaching. In our eagerness to make converts, we allow our believers to absorb the idea that they can deal with their (R B Quotes)
