Stand Quotes

Animals are more than ever a test of our character, of mankind’s capacity for empathy and for decent, honorable conduct and faithful stewardship. We are called to treat them with kindness, not because they have rights or power or some claim to equality, but in a sense because they don’t; because they all stand unequal and powerless before us Picture Quote #1

... nobody can stand truth if it is told to him. Truth can be tolerated only if you discover it yourself because then, the pride of discovery makes the truth palatable Picture Quote #1

If you cannot stand a spoon upright in the cup, then the coffee is too weak Picture Quote #1

Sisters, as you know, also have a unique relationship. This is the person who has known you your entire life, who should love you and stand by you no matter what, and yet it’s your sister who knows exactly where to drive the knife to hurt you the most Picture Quote #1

It is only when we stand up, with all our failings and sufferings, and try to support others rather than withdraw into ourselves, that we can fully live the life of community Picture Quote #1

I had grown up. I had learned that being a woman was knowing when to stand firm and when to compromise. I had learned to laugh and weep; I had learned that I was weak as well as strong. I had learned to love. I was no longer a rigid, upright tree that would not flex and bow, even though the gale threatened to snap it in two; I was the willow that bends and shivers and sways, and yet remains strong Picture Quote #1

To stand at the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold thousands of years, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any earthly life can be Picture Quote #1

Give me but a firm spot on which to stand, and I shall move the earth Picture Quote #1

If you live in such a manner as to stand the test of the last judgment, you can depend upon it that the world will not speak well of you Picture Quote #1

You stand for nothing. You respect nobody. The music you dance to is devoid of beauty, its lyrics empty of humor or cleverness Picture Quote #1

Even when we’re with someone we love, we’re foolish enough to think of her body and soul as being separate. To stand before the person we love is not the same as loving her true self, for we are only apt to regard her physical beauty as the indispensable mode of her existence. When time and space intervene, it is possible to be deceived by both, but on the other hand, it is equally possible to draw twice as close to her real self Picture Quote #1

When you attain the control of the internal direction of your attention, you will no longer stand in shallow water but will launch out into the deep of life Picture Quote #1

I haven’t personally experienced bullying, but when I was in high school, I had a best friend who became a bully. I took a stand and took it upon myself to separate from her. I couldn’t be associated with her because it wasn’t the type of person I wanted to be Picture Quote #1

If we lived in a state where virtue was profitable, common sense would make us saintly. But since we see that avarice, anger, pride and stupidity commonly profit far beyond charity, modesty, justice and thought, perhaps we must stand fast a little, even at the risk of being heroes Picture Quote #1

I will stand off the forces of the entire country here... and die a resplendent death Picture Quote #1

If you have time to breathe you have time to meditate. You breathe when you walk. You breathe when you stand. You breathe when you lie down Picture Quote #1

Set your goals, follow your dreams, listen to your heart and don’t let anything stand in your way Picture Quote #1

Winning and losing are both very temporary things. Having done one or the other, you move ahead. Gloating over a victory or sulking over a loss is a good way to stand still Picture Quote #1

To stand by the beds at sunrise and see the flowers awake is a heavenly delight Picture Quote #1

Behind all these men you have to do with, behind officers, and government, and people even, there is the country herself, your country, and... you belong to her as you belong to your own mother. Stand by her, boy, as you would stand by your mother Picture Quote #1

Maturity is not equated with independence though it includes a certain capacity for independence... The independence of the mature person is simply that he does not collapse when he has to stand alone. It is not an independence of needs for other persons with whom to have relationship: that would not be desired by the mature Picture Quote #1

... with a cat you stand on much the same footing that you stand with a fine and dignified friend; if you forfeit his respect and confidence the relationship suffers. The cat, it is well to remember, remains the friend of man because it pleases him to do so and not because he must Picture Quote #1

Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there; I did not die Picture Quote #1

The bass is the link between harmony and rhythm. It is the foundation of a band. It is what all the other instruments stand upon, but it is rarely recognized as that Picture Quote #1

A man can stand almost any hardship by day, and be none the worse for it, provided he gets a comfortable nights rest; but without sound sleep he will soon go to pieces, no matter how gritty he may be Picture Quote #1

It is always the first and last steps that are the hardest to take. We walk away and try not to turn back, or we stand just outside the gates, terrified to find what’s waiting for us now that we’ve returned. In between, we stumble blindly from one place and life to the next. We try to do the best we can. There are moments like this, however, when we are neither coming nor going, and all we have to do is sit and look back on the life we have made Picture Quote #1

United we stand, divided we fall. Let us not split into factions which must destroy that union upon which our existence hangs Picture Quote #1

If we don’t stand up for others, who will be left to stand up for us? Picture Quote #1

Take heed when you think you stand, lest you fall. In this life you can fall from any level Picture Quote #1

And woman should stand beside man as the comrade of his soul, not the servant of his body Picture Quote #1
