Small Quotes

We cannot wait for great visions from great people, for they are in short supply. It is up to us to light our own small fires in the darkness Picture Quote #1

I don’t know much about death and the sorriest lesson I’ve learned is that words, my most trusted guardians against chaos, offer small comfort in the face of anyone’s dying Picture Quote #1

Stand still, close your eyes and listen; in the silence you can hear the cries of pain and low moans of anguish of animals waiting to die... do everything you can even if today it is just one small thing. There are no excuses for inaction, despair, egotism, or petulance that matter to the animals Picture Quote #1

Please remember the hundreds of tiny empty stomachs in our communities. Winter is a tough time for birds and other small creatures as food can become buried beneath snow or frozen ground. Scatter seeds in your yard, nearby parks Picture Quote #1

It’s just that I have this funny objection to torturing small animals no matter how scrumptious their body parts might be... Our food industries are equal opportunity abusers: cows, chickens, pigs, and a special mention to those little calves who for their short, miserable lives are locked into crates too small to allow movement just so we can eat veal Picture Quote #1

Twin miracles of mascara, her eyes looked like the corpses of two small crows that had crashed into a chalk cliff Picture Quote #1

Man is always inclined to regard the small circle in which he lives as the center of the world and to make his particular, private life the standard of the universe and to make his particular, private life the standard of the universe. But he must give up this vain pretense, this petty provincial way of thinking and judging Picture Quote #1

There are no distant places any longer: the world is small and the world is one Picture Quote #1

Humans aren’t built to sit all day. Nor are we built for the kinds of repetitive, small movements that so much of today’s specialized work demands. Our bodies crave big, varied movements that originate at the core of our body Picture Quote #1

Everything has to be clean and orderly when I sit down to write. I have candles going, and small objects that remind me of what I am working on, or bring me into the world of the character Picture Quote #1

Writing well isn’t just a question of winsome expression, but of having found something big and true to say and having found the right words to say it in, of having seen something large and having found the right words to say it small, small enough to enter an individual mind so that the strong ideas of what the words are saying sound like sweet reason Picture Quote #1

We are dominated by the relatively small number of persons who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind Picture Quote #1

One can only be in awe of the creativity of chocolate marketers. My take is that if there is a health benefit, it is small Picture Quote #1

I regard large inherited wealth as a misfortune, which merely serves to dull men’s faculties. A man who possesses great wealth should, therefore, allow only a small portion to descend to his relatives. Even if he has children, I consider it a mistake to hand over to them considerable sums of money beyond what is necessary for their education. To do so merely encourages laziness and impedes the healthy development of the individual’s capacity to make an independent position for himself Picture Quote #1

There is no occasion when meals should become totally unimportant. Meals can be very small indeed, very inexpensive, short times taken in the midst of a big push of work, but they should be always more than just food Picture Quote #1

If elephants didn’t exist, you couldn’t invent one. They belong to a small group of living things so unlikely they challenge credulity and common sense Picture Quote #1

Death itself is too big to take in, she already sees that; the loss comes at you instead in an infinite number of small installments that can never be paid off Picture Quote #1

A small town is nothing but eyes and gaping maw; it pecks at its own like a flock of vicious birds Picture Quote #1

We’ve never played at this place before. This place is big, and I’m kinda nervous, so we’re going to make it feel small by pretending we’re in a... bedroom. We’ll hang off the edge of the bed, take off our shoes and get naked! Picture Quote #1

When we come upon beautiful things they act like small tears in the surface of the world that pull us through to some vaster space Picture Quote #1

Remember, all of man’s happiness is in the little valleys. Tiny little ones. Small enough to call from one side to the other Picture Quote #1

I think it’s a universal thing in every family, that people have their own specific versions of pivotal events or even small memories Picture Quote #1

I like my small camper. I just do not want to return to a fixed home. I cannot stand being in one place. I must keep moving Picture Quote #1

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you Picture Quote #1

For a while in my teens, I was sure I had it. It was about getting to heaven. If heaven existed and lasted forever, then a mere lifetime spent scrupulously following orders was a small investment for an infinite payoff. One day, though, I realized I was no longer a believer, and realizing that, I couldn’t go back Picture Quote #1

If you can’t take a small loss, sooner or later you will take the mother of all losses Picture Quote #1

The trading rules I live by are: 1. Cut losses. 2. Ride winners. 3. Keep bets small. 4. Follow the rules without question. 5. Know when to break the rules Picture Quote #1

I heard it all the time, but I never looked at it that way. People that said I was too small were the ones that helped my career out. They were the ones that said I would never make it, and they’re the ones that made me fight that much harder Picture Quote #1

Unconsciously, I fell in love with the small round sphere, with its amusing and capricious rebounds which sometimes play with me Picture Quote #1

Error is not just acceptable, it is necessary for the continuation of life, provided it is not too great. A large error is a catastrophe, a small error is essential for enhancing existence. Without error, there is no movement. Death follows Picture Quote #1
