Small Quotes

Let the spirit of your work be right, and whether your task be great or small you will then have the satisfaction of knowing it is worth while Picture Quote #1

She was white, perhaps too white. Her eyes, which were almost always cast down, when she raised them testified to the purest of souls, and when she smiled, revealing her small, white teeth, one might be tempted to say that a rose is merely a plant, and ivory just an elephant’s tusk Picture Quote #1

And what are these fluxions? The velocities of evanescent increments. And what are these same evanescent increments? They are neither finite quantities, nor quantities infinitely small, nor yet nothing. May we not call them the ghosts of departed quantities...? Picture Quote #1

Standing on the bridge, looking across at that empty city, everything in the compass of my gaze had been set there by a human hand. Somehow those pylons had been strung with wire, and those towers raised, and roofs tiled. There had been food and drink for millions of mouths. I don’t cry easy, but my vision blurred as I stared on the ruins of what we had been, and I watched the small band of men in rags move toward it to pick at it like birds on the carcass of some giant Picture Quote #1

Mr. Jamrach led me through the lobby and into the menagerie. The first was a parrot room, a fearsome screaming place of mad round eyes, crimson breasts that beat against bars, wings that flapped against their neighbours, blood red, royal blue, gypsy yellow, grass green. The birds were crammed along perches. Macaws hung upside down here and there, batting their white eyes, and small green parrots flittered above our heads in drifts. A hot of cockatoos looked down from on high over the shrill madness, high crested, creamy breasted. The screeching was like laughter in hell Picture Quote #1

They say there were birds who used to soar through the skies like planes.It seems strange that a small animal could achieve anything as complex as human engineering, but the possibility is too enticing to ignore Picture Quote #1

Thus, the word is more essential than cement. Thus, the word is not a small nothing. In this manner, noble people begin to grow, and their word will break cement Picture Quote #1

A community is a small group working together. Community scales by adding groups, and building connections between them, not enlarging them Picture Quote #1

Rage swept over her at being young, young and little, as if some evil fairy had put that spell on her. Why must you be locked up in this dreadful cage of childhood for twenty or a hundred years? Nothing in life was possible unless you were old and rich, until then you were only small and futile before your tormentors, desperately waiting for the release that only years could bring Picture Quote #1

Faithfulness in small things leads to faithfulness in great things, and never the other way around Picture Quote #1

I don’t go see big, silly movies. I like small things about regular folks, you know? Picture Quote #1

This part of optics, when well understood, shows us how we may make things a very long distance off appear as if placed very close, and large near things appear very small, and how we may make small things placed at a distance appear any size we want, so that it may be possible for us to read the smallest letters at incredible distances, or to count sand, or seed, or any sort or minute objects Picture Quote #1

A random act of kindness, no matter how small, can make a tremendous impact on someone else’s life Picture Quote #1

Memories must enter the bloodstream, must churn awhile through the heart’s mill, must be crushed and polished, be nearly forgotten or cling like burs to other stories before they spill forth in purple patterns, shapes of small bones and worm rot, shapes of clouds and the spaces between leaves Picture Quote #1

To this must be added that the hiring of labor and the conduct of trade are concentrated in the hands of comparatively few; so that a small number of very rich men have been able to lay upon the teeming masses of the laboring poor a yoke little better than that of slavery itself Picture Quote #1

If theory is the role of the architect, then such beautiful proofs are the role of the craftsman. Of course, as with the great renaissance artists, such roles are not mutually exclusive. A great cathedral has both structural impressiveness and delicate detail. A great mathematical theory should similarly be beautiful on both large and small scales Picture Quote #1

When families save, they can get through emergencies like a bad harvest or a medical emergency. But it’s more than that. They can also plan for the future, gradually saving up for a small business or for their children’s school tuition Picture Quote #1

Sometimes my life just don’t make sense at all. The mountains looks so big and my faith just seems so small Picture Quote #1

If you are constantly making judgments based on superficial affiliations, your world gets to be pretty small Picture Quote #1

I think fear neutralizes alcohol, weakens its anesthetic power. It’s good for small fears; your boss, your wife, your bills, your dentist; all right then to take a drink. But for big ones it doesn’t do any good. Like water on blazing gasoline, it will only quicken and compound it. It takes sand, in the literal and the slang sense, to smother the bonfire that is fear. And if you’re out of sand, then you must burn up Picture Quote #1

And y’know what they decided the number one threat was? The destructive and disruptive capability of a small group. That’s what they’re worried about most... they’re terrified of a small group with a committed goal Picture Quote #1

It was any outcast’s nightmare. If I looked carefully, I suspected I might find it beneath the black paint of the small acrylic by the window Picture Quote #1

When you raise the price of employment, guess what happens? You get less of it. Why do we want to make it harder for small employers to hire people? Picture Quote #1

Conventional wisdom suggests the primary motivator for entrepreneurs is money or wealth creation and, in fact, much of the political debate tends to center around what kind of tax or regulatory policy changes will turn corporate suits into small business adventurers overnight Picture Quote #1

Help each user personally. Sure that won’t scale to a very large size, but when a startup is just starting out, it really helps you have an advantage as a small and nimble company Picture Quote #1

Drama is drama, and it’s really... if it’s something small, you put a magnifying glass up to it; if it’s something big, you use a wide lens Picture Quote #1

Your world could grow infinitely bigger if you were only willing to become... appropri ately small Picture Quote #1

Customers won’t care about any particular technology unless it solves a particular problem in a superior way. And if you can’t monopolize a unique solution for a small market, you’ll be stuck with vicious competition Picture Quote #1

Summoning up the courage to take action is always the same regardless of how seemingly big or small the challenge. What may look like a small act of courage is courage nonetheless. The important thing is to be willing to take a step forward Picture Quote #1

If we take a small step in extolling peacemakers as much as honoring war heroes, we will be making a giant leap towards peace Picture Quote #1
