Seems Quotes

The process of growth is, it seems, the art of falling down. Growth is measured by the gentleness and awareness with which we once again pick ourselves up, the lightness with which we dust ourselves off, the openness with which we continue and take the next unknown step, beyond our edge, beyond our holding, into the remarkable mystery of being Picture Quote #1

All that seems indispensible in stating the account between the dead and the living, is to see that the debts against the latter do not exceed the advances made by the former Picture Quote #1

It seems to me nowadays that the most important task for someone who is aging is to spread love and warmth whenever possible Picture Quote #1

If we devote ourselves to the life at hand, the rest will follow. For life, it seems, reveals itself through those willing to live. Anything else, no matter how beautiful, is just advertising Picture Quote #1

It seems to me that we spend an inordinate amount of time and attention on fixing ourselves when we could really be directing that out to serving others Picture Quote #1

A photograph is just a tiny slice of a subject. A piece of them in a moment. It seems presumptuous to think you can get more than that Picture Quote #1

In many climbing cultures, it seems that dirty ethics and poor style are acceptable. In mine they are not Picture Quote #1

There is nothing more I ask of this life than this moment, exactly so. And suddenly forever seems like too short a time Picture Quote #1

When it seems that someone has shattered your dreams... pick up even the smallest of pieces and use them to build bigger and better dreams Picture Quote #1

Art seems to me to be above all a state of soul. All souls are sacred, the soul of all the bipeds in every quarter of the globe Picture Quote #1

It’s all the same, only the names will change, everyday it seems we’re wasting away. Another place, where the faces are so cold, I’d drive all night just to get back home Picture Quote #1

Creative work only seems like a magic trick to people who don’t understand that it’s ultimately still work Picture Quote #1

In looking for my mind, I discovered that it seems to be in many different places. Sometimes it is drinking a glass of water, remembering swimming in the summer, feeling the breeze. In this contemplation I observed that the self is more elusive than I thought Picture Quote #1

I pray you never stand at any crossroads in your own lives, but if you do, if the darkness seems so total, if you think there is no way out, remember, never ever give up. The darker the night, the brighter the dawn, and when it gets really, really dark, this is when one sees the true brilliance of the stars Picture Quote #1

Of all the pitfalls in our paths and the tremendous delays and wanderings off the track, I want to say that they are not what they seem to be. I want to say that all that seems like fantastic mistakes are not mistakes, all that seems like error is not error; and it all has to be done. That which seems like a false step is the next step Picture Quote #1

We can’t say why we search, except that there seems to be an innate need, in each human being, to know who one is, what we’re here for, how to live more poetically Picture Quote #1

That’s how oppression works. Thousands of otherwise decent people are persuaded to go along with an unfair system because changing it seems like too much bother. The appropriate response when somebody demands a change in that unfair system is to listen, rather than turn away or yell, as a child might, that it’s not your fault. Of course it isn’t your fault. I’m sure you’re lovely. That doesn’t mean you don’t have a responsibility to do something about it Picture Quote #1

Today’s aikido is so dimensionless. It’s hollow, empty on the inside. People try to reach the highest levels without even paying their dues. That’s why it seems so much like a dance these days. You have to master the very basics solidly, with your body, and then proceed to develop to the higher levels... Now we see nothing but copying or imitation without any grasp of the real thing Picture Quote #1

If you attack a mathematical problem directly, very often you come to a dead end, nothing you do seems to work and you feel that if only you could peer round the corner there might be an easy solution. There is nothing like having somebody else beside you, because he can usually peer round the corner Picture Quote #1

It’s not often as an actor you get to be involved with a project that seems to be on the right side of history Picture Quote #1

With a play, you do it and it’s gone. Films always date. Television drama always dates. Television comedy, for some reason, seems to go on Picture Quote #1

I’m very grateful that I have one of those faces that seems to blend back into the crowd. A lot of people pay lip service to wanting a normal life, but it’s actually very important to me Picture Quote #1

When the jars of clay remember they are jars of clay, the treasure within gets all the glory, which seems somehow more fitting Picture Quote #1

Much music teaching seems more concerned with controlling the student than with encouraging the student’s own impulses Picture Quote #1

Have you ever observed somebody go through a religious conversion? The person seems perfectly reasonable to you and has no particular concern for religion. Then a parent, friend or child dies or he gets a serious illness or is involved in a car accident. In just a matter of weeks, he seeks out and finds the answers to all of life’s questions and starts studying and spouting all sorts of doctrine. During such a window of vulnerability, religion can commandeer a person’s brain Picture Quote #1

Life seems sometimes like nothing more than a series of losses, from beginning to end. That’s the given. How you respond to those losses, what you make of what’s left, that’s the part you have to make up as you go Picture Quote #1

When the world seems large and complex, we need to remember that great world ideals all begin in some home neighborhood Picture Quote #1

I address these hopes to all young players. It seems to me that they often begin too early the strict life of a professional, without first completing their chess studies. Deficiencies in education and a lack of certain basic knowledge will tell sooner or later; they will bump their head on the ceiling and will no longer be able to climb up to the stars Picture Quote #1

Of all the intellectual hurdles which the human mind has confronted and has overcome in the last fifteen hundred years the one which seems to me to have been the most amazing in character and the most stupendous in the scope of its consequences is the one relating to the problem of motion Picture Quote #1

Forty years ago, after many years of successful use of thyroid therapy, leading gynecologists in this country and elsewhere were reporting thyroid had cured more menstrual disorders than all other medications combined. Unfortunately, that lesson seems to have been largely lost Picture Quote #1
