Reverence Quotes

Painful emotions show you what prevents you from creating harmony, cooperation, sharing and reverence for life Picture Quote #1

To find oneself living in an age of doubt is not such a curse. There is a kind of reverence in undertaking the quest for truth, even before the first scrap has been found Picture Quote #1

I am not a morose person, but I would rather not be here. I don’t have any reverence for life, only for the entities themselves. I would rather see a blank space where I am. This will sound like fruitcake stuff again but at least I wouldn’t be harming anything Picture Quote #1

I feel a kind of reverence for the first books of young authors. There is so much aspiration in them, so much audacious hope and trembling fear, so much of the heart’s history, that all errors and shortcomings are for a while lost sight of in the amiable self assertion of youth Picture Quote #1

How necessary it is to cultivate a spirit of joy. It is a psychological truth that the physical acts of reverence and devotion make one feel devout. The courteous gesture increases one’s respect for others. To act lovingly is to begin to feel loving, and certainly to act joyfully brings joy to others which in turn makes one feel joyful. I believe we are called to the duty of delight Picture Quote #1

That love is reverence, and worship, and glory, and the upward glance. Not a bandage for dirty sores. But they don’t know it. Those who speak of love most promiscuously are the ones who’ve never felt it. They make some sort of feeble stew out of sympathy, compassion, contempt, and general indifference, and they call it love. Once you’ve felt what it means to love as you and I know it – the total passion for the total height – you’re incapable of anything less Picture Quote #1

I just remember their kindness and goodness to me, and their peacefulness and their utter simplicity. They inspired real reverence, and I think, in a way, they were certainly saints. And they were saints in that most effective and telling way: sanctified by leading ordinary lives in a completely supernatural manner, sanctified by obscurity, by usual skills, by common tasks, by routine, but skills, tasks, routine which received a supernatural form from grace within Picture Quote #1

Wise politicians will be cautious about fettering the government with restrictions that cannot be observed, because they know that every break of the fundamental laws, though dictated by necessity, impairs that sacred reverence which ought to be maintained in the breast of rulers towards the constitution of a country Picture Quote #1

The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint. They talk as if they alone knew everything and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for girls, they are forward, immodest and unwomanly in speech, behaviour and dress Picture Quote #1

Reverence for life... does not allow the scholar to live for his science alone, even if he is very useful... the artist to exist only for his art, even if he gives inspiration to many... It refuses to let the business man imagine that he fulfills all legitimate demands in the course of his business activities. It demands from all that they should sacrifice a portion of their own lives for others Picture Quote #1

It is a sad weakness in us, after all, that the thought of a person’s death consecrates him or her anew to us. It is as if life were not sacred too, as if it were comparatively a small thing to fail in love and reverence to the brother or sister who has to climb the whole toilsome mountain with us. It seems as if all our tears and tenderness were due to the one who is spared that hard journey Picture Quote #1

Fullness of knowledge always means some understanding of the depths of our ignorance; and that is always conducive to humility and reverence Picture Quote #1

Make religion attractive, make good men wish it were true, and then show that it is. Worthy of reverence because it really understands human nature. Attractive because it promises true good Picture Quote #1

Nature has no reverence towards life. Nature treats life as though it were the most valueless thing in the world... Nature does not act by purposes Picture Quote #1

That which was at first bound, cast out and rent by many and various beaters will be respected and honoured, and its precepts will be listened to with reverence and love Picture Quote #1

We must approach religion with reverence and with love, and our heart will stand up and say, this is truth, and this is untruth Picture Quote #1

A true spiritual seeker will have the deepest respect and utmost reverence for all religions. We can treasure all religions and claim them as our very own Picture Quote #1

Reverence is the sense that there is something larger than the self, larger even than the human, to which one accords respect and awe and assent Picture Quote #1

A nihilist is a man who does not bow down before any authority, who does not take any principle on faith, whatever reverence that principle may be enshrined in Picture Quote #1

Two things fill the heart with renewed and increasing awe and reverence the more often and the more steadily that they are meditated on: The starry skies above me and the moral law inside me Picture Quote #1

In general those parents have the most reverence who most deserve it; for he that lives well cannot be despised Picture Quote #1

I have all reverence for principles which grow out of sentiments; but as to sentiments which grow out of principles, you shall scarcely build a house of cards thereon Picture Quote #1

That day I shall always recollect with grief; with reverence also, for the gods so willed it Picture Quote #1

True religion teaches us to reverence what is under us, to recognize humility and poverty, and, despite mockery and disgrace, wretchedness, suffering, and death, as things divine Picture Quote #1

To yield reverence to another, to hold ourselves and our lives at his disposal, is not slavery; often, it is the noblest state in which a man can live in this world Picture Quote #1

The doubts of love are never to be wholly overcome; they grow with its various anxieties, timidities, and tenderness, and are the very fruits of the reverence in which the admired object is beheld Picture Quote #1

There is a time when the hoary head of inveterate abuse will neither draw reverence nor obtain protection Picture Quote #1

I reverence the individual who understands distinctly what he wishes; who unweariedly advances, who knows the means conducive to his object, and can seize and use them Picture Quote #1

We black men seem the sole oasis of simple faith and reverence in a dusty desert of dollars and smartness Picture Quote #1

Those who choose, conduct, present, and accompany the music may influence the spirit of reverence... more than a speaker does Picture Quote #1
