Rest Quotes

Once the demands of necessity and propriety have been met, the rest that one owns belongs to the poor Picture Quote #1

How I envy those clerks who go by to their offices in the morning! There’s the day’s work cut out for them; no question of mood and feeling; they have just to work at something, and when the evening comes, they have earned their wages, and they are free to rest and enjoy themselves. What an insane thing it is to make literature one’s only means of support! When the most trivial accident may at any time prove fatal to one’s power of work for weeks or months. No, that is the unpardonable sin! To make a trade of an art! I am rightly served for attempting such a brutal folly Picture Quote #1

If we can stop, listen, and think about what others are seeing in us, we have a great opportunity. We can compare the self that we want to be with the self that we are presenting to the rest of the world. We can then begin to make the real changes that are needed to close the gap between our stated values and our actual behavior Picture Quote #1

Alcohol, firearms and a 4 wheel drive can go a long ways towards making a rain day into a fun rest day Picture Quote #1

Achieving the summit of a mountain was tangible, immutable, concrete. The incumbent hazards lent the activity a seriousness of purpose that was sorely missing from the rest of my life. I thrilled in the fresh perspective that came from the tipping the ordinary plane of existence on end Picture Quote #1

When I rest I feel utterly lifeless except that my throat burns when I draw breath... I can scarcely go on. No despair, no happiness, no anxiety. I have not lost the mastery of my feelings, there are actually no more feelings. I consist only of will. After each few metres this too fizzles out in unending tiredness. Then I think nothing. I let myself fall, just lie there. For an indefinite time I remain completely irresolute. Then I make a few steps again Picture Quote #1

We have to face the pain we have been running from. In fact, we need to learn to rest in it and let its searing power transform us Picture Quote #1

Education should aim at destroying free will so that after pupils are thus schooled they will be incapable throughout the rest of their lives of thinking or acting otherwise than as their school masters would have wished Picture Quote #1

Living simply means concentrating on what’s important in light of eternity. And not taking the rest of life too seriously Picture Quote #1

In a typical desperation for quick answers, easily understood, people had turned to primitive worship as the solution. With less than success. Not only had they died as quickly as the rest of the people, but they had died with terror in their hearts, with a mortal dread flowing in their very veins Picture Quote #1

You are born with only two fears: fear of falling and fear of loud noise. All the rest is learned. And it’s a lot of work! Picture Quote #1

When we know something and rest in that knowing we limit our vision. We will only see what our knowing will allow us to see. In this way experience can be our enemy Picture Quote #1

In every chain of reasoning, the evidence of the last conclusion can be no greater than that of the weakest link of the chain, whatever may be the strength of the rest Picture Quote #1

It is the privilege of genius that life never grows common place, as it does for the rest of us Picture Quote #1

We spend our life until we’re twenty deciding what parts of ourself to put into the bag, and we spend the rest of our lives trying to get them out again Picture Quote #1

Our culture will become like it was during the medieval times when there truly was a cultural elite. The rest of the people will just watch television, which will be their only frame of reference Picture Quote #1

Let me beg you, not to rest contented with the commonplace religion that is now so prevalent Picture Quote #1

God does not need us or the rest of creation for anything, yet we and the rest of creation can glorify him and bring him joy Picture Quote #1

You can either stick to your goals, or you can just go through the motions and rest on your status. But it’s all about work Picture Quote #1

Why we do what we do: that moment when you get to see the future on your computer screen before the rest of the world Picture Quote #1

Green is the fresh emblem of well founded hopes. In blue the spirit can wander, but in green it can rest Picture Quote #1

As a writer one is allowed to have conversations with oneself. What is considered sane in writers is made for the rest of the human race Picture Quote #1

During the rest of my screen career, I am going to continue doing vampires as long as people sin. For I believe that humanity needs the moral lesson and it needs it in repeatedly larger doses Picture Quote #1

I think there is a choice possible to us at any moment, as long as we live. But there is no sacrifice. There is a choice, and the rest falls away. Second choice does not exist. Beware of those who talk about sacrifice Picture Quote #1

The positivists have a simple solution: the world must be divided into that which we can say clearly and the rest, which we had better pass over in silence. But can anyone conceive of a more pointless philosophy, seeing that what we can say clearly amounts to next to nothing? If we omitted all that is unclear, we would probably be left completely uninteresting and trivial tautologies Picture Quote #1

A moving shadow means more to us than a body at rest. We are no longer taken in by a fixed grin. We know that only death has a rictus Picture Quote #1

There are and will be those who think I have gone overboard. Let them rest assured that this assessment is correct, probably beyond their wildest imagination, and that I will continue to do so Picture Quote #1

See, see how the sun has moved onward while we talked. Nothing can stop it in its course. Prayers cannot halt the revolving of nature. It is the same with human life. Victory and defeat are one in the vast stream of life. Victory is the beginning of defeat, and who can rest safely in victory? Impermanence is the nature of all things of this world. Even you will find your ill fortunes too will change. It is easy to understand the impatience of the old, whose days are numbered, but why should you young ones fret when the future is yours? Picture Quote #1

I took some time off to enjoy my life, but figure skating is something I love and something I will continue doing for the rest of my life Picture Quote #1

Call for the grandest of all earthly spectacles, what is that? It is the sun going to his rest Picture Quote #1
