Shrinking Quotes

If you think shrinking government and getting it less involved in your life is a hallmark of tyranny it is only because you are either grotesquely ignorant or because you subscribe to a statist ideology that believes the expansion of the state is the expansion of liberty Picture Quote #1

True humanity consists not in a squeamish ear; it consists not in starting or shrinking at tales of misery, but in a disposition of heart to relieve it. True humanity appertains rather to the mind than to the nerves, and prompts men to use real and active endeavors to execute the actions which it suggests Picture Quote #1

I have no fear nor shrinking; I have seen death so often that it is not strange or fearful to me Picture Quote #1

The world is shrinking as we see more and more of it in the media, and the more we see of the world, the smaller we are, the more aware we are of how insignificant any one of us is Picture Quote #1

The enemy fought with savage fury, and met death with all its horrors, without shrinking or complaining: not one asked to be spared, but fought as long as they could stand or sit Picture Quote #1

Shrinking away from death is something unhealthy and abnormal which robs the second half of life of it's purpose Picture Quote #1

You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure about you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us Picture Quote #1

There is in most passions a shrinking away from ourselves. The passionate pursuer has all the earmarks of a fugitive Picture Quote #1

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do Picture Quote #1

For a long time I wanted to draw, but I could never get the proportions right. My still life sketches were the artistic equivalent of someone who has misjudged the space constraints of a postcard, the handwriting shrinking uncomfortably at the bottom Picture Quote #1

We too often let the material things serve as indicators that we’re doing well, even though something inside us tells us that were not doing our best. That we are avoiding that which is hard, but also necessary. That we are shrinking from rather than rising to the challenges of the age Picture Quote #1

To expect... The same service from raw and undisciplined recruits, as from veteran soldiers, is to expect what never did and perhaps never will happen. Men, who are familiarized to danger, meet it without shrinking; whereas troops unused to service often apprehend danger where no danger is Picture Quote #1

Nominee. A modest gentleman shrinking from the distinction of private life and diligently seeking the honorable obscurity of public office Picture Quote #1

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you... As we are liberated from our fear, our presence automatically liberates others Picture Quote #1

We simply must balance our demand for energy with our rapidly shrinking resources. By acting now we can control our future instead of letting the future control us Picture Quote #1

You playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightening about shrinking so others won’t feel insecure around you. As you let your own light shine, you indirectly give others permission to do the same Picture Quote #1

In that shrinking moment he discovered that he had never hated anyone until now. It was a feeling as pure as love, but dispassionate and icily rational Picture Quote #1

He slipped away slowly, withdrawing from this world by small, imperceptible degrees, and in the end it was as if he were a drop of water evaporating in the sun, shrinking and shrinking until at last he wasn’t there anymore Picture Quote #1

And now she was back in the world, not one she could make, but the one that had made her, and she felt herself shrinking under the early evening sky. She was weary of being outdoors, but she was not ready to go in. Was that really all there was in life, indoors or out? Wasn’t there somewhere else for people to go? Picture Quote #1

Negotiations over a shrinking pie are especially difficult because they require an allocation of losses. People tend to be much more easygoing when they bargain over an expanding pie Picture Quote #1

People are afraid, and when people are afraid, when their pie is shrinking, they look for somebody to hate. They look for somebody to blame. And a real leader speaks to anxiety and to fear and allays those fears, assuages anxiety Picture Quote #1

I used to think that humor was the only way to appreciate how wonderful and terrible the world is, to celebrate how big life is. But now I think the opposite. Humor is a way of shrinking from that wonderful and terrible world Picture Quote #1

Authorities say brain cells may shrink, but they don’t necessarily die. Frankly, I am cheered by the fact that something is shrinking. I’d be even more thrilled if what was shrinking affected my dress size, but you can’t have everything Picture Quote #1

Plays are getting smaller and smaller, not because playwrights minds are shrinking but because of the economics Picture Quote #1
