Text Quotes
I looked at some of the statues of Jesus; they were just stones with no life. When they said that God is three, I was puzzled even more but could not argue. I believed it, simply because I had to have respect for the faith of my parents.  (Statues Quotes) I love firm hugs. Statues are so affectionate. Well, at least compared to my ex wife.  (Statues Quotes) We are not on this earth to just stand still and look pretty. The museums already have enough statues.  (Statues Quotes) Nothing can take the sting out of the world’s economic problems like watching millionaires present each other with golden statues.  (Statues Quotes) I am very attracted by the mysterious landscape of Easter Island. Not only because it is a piece of land that is further away from another, but also because of the beautiful statues of Moai that are there. To do a beautiful walk there, I would have to involve the Moai, and the Rapa Nui people who live on the island.  (Statues Quotes) Marble statues, engraved with public inscriptions, by which the life and soul return after death to noble leaders  (Statues Quotes) America loves the representation of its heroes to be not just larger than life, but stupendously, awesomely bigger than anything else. If blue whales built statues to each other they’d be smaller then these.  (Statues Quotes) I think we got in more trouble with Aunt Tasha,ʺ said Christian. ʺShe was kind of pissed off that we didnʹt tell her what was going on. I think she probably wanted to blow up the statues herself.  (Statues Quotes) No one has ever built a statue to a critic, it’s true. On the other hand, it’s only the people with statues that get pooped on by birds flying by.  (Statues Quotes) A beautiful behavior is better than a beautiful form; it gives a higher pleasure than statues or pictures; it is the finest of fine arts.  (Statues Quotes) When I was young, beautiful ancient statues were castrated, so that the eye might not be corrupted.... Nothing was gained, unless horses and asses had also been castrated.  (Statues Quotes) When people say that L.A. doesn’t have a culture, I think it really does: a very old culture, and very specific. There’s streets named after entertainers, and statues of entertainers, and it’s great. Entertainment is still art, even if it makes billions of dollars. So it’s like a city built on entertainment, and art in a way.  (Statues Quotes) The slightest nudge can send a fruit pyramid collapsing into ruin. Perhaps this is why there is so little ancient architecture and art left in the world. Perhaps ancient fat people bumped into buildings and statues and made them fall. Perhaps this is the real reason Rome fell  (Statues Quotes) It’s not about composition. It’s the way you feel about how your objects should relate to each other. I’ve got lots of African statues and things, and the cleaner arranges them like soldiers, which drives me mad. So I have to rearrange them, and I must drive her mad, because I’m doing anarchy and she’s doing military manoeuvres  (Statues Quotes) Statues and children frame the Eiffel Tower and its watery image. When the Germans occupied Paris, they housed a beacon light in the Tower to guide their night planes. The victorious United States Army requisitioned this landmark as a radar transmission point  (Statues Quotes) Many religions have attempted to make statues of their gods very large, and the idea, I suppose, is to make us feel small. But if that’s their purpose, they can keep their paltry icons. We need only look up if we wish to feel small  (Statues Quotes) A beautiful form is better than a beautiful face; it gives a higher pleasure than statues or pictures; it is the finest of the fine arts  (Statues Quotes) No, women like you don’t write. They carve onion sculptures and potato statues. They sit in dark corners and braid their hair in new shapes and twists in order to control the stiffness, the unruliness, the rebelliousness  (Statues Quotes) America loves the representation of its heroes to be not just larger than life, but stupendously, awesomely bigger than anything else. If blue whales built statues to each other they’d be smaller then these  (Statues Quotes) The monuments of the nations are all protests against nothingness after death; so are statues and inscriptions; so is history  (Statues Quotes) When we read what Goethe says about men we are ashamed of what we have said; when we read what he says about painting and statues we are ashamed of what Goethe has said  (Statues Quotes) Statues and pictures and verse may be grand, but they are not the life for which they stand  (Statues Quotes) I am running through a snowfall which is her thighs, he dramatized in purple. Her thighs are filling up the street. Wide as a snowfall, heavy as huge falling Zeppelins, her damp thighs are settling on the sharp roofs and wooden balconies. Weather-vanes press the shape of roosters and sail-boats into the skin. The faces of famous statues are preserved like intaglios  (Statues Quotes) Spoons and skimmers you can be undistinguishably together; but vases and statues require each a pedestal for itself  (Statues Quotes) I can't imagine what it is like to be raised in a society where their only statues that exist are to you and your father  (Statues Quotes) The crowning fortune of a man is to be born to some pursuit which finds him employment and happiness, whether it be to make baskets, or broadswords, or canals, or statues, or songs  (Statues Quotes) They linger near the back door, forehead to forehead and curved like statues as their lips whisper and brush together  (Statues Quotes) A beautiful behavior is better than a beautiful form; it gives a higher pleasure than statues or pictures; it is the finest of the fine arts  (Statues Quotes) Nobody, I think, ought to read poetry, or look at pictures or statues, who cannot find a great deal more in them than the poet or artist has actually expressed. Their highest merit is suggestiveness  (Statues Quotes) They spake not a word; but like dumb statues or breathless stones, star'd on each other, and look'd deadly pale  (Statues Quotes)
