Text Quotes
The crumbling castle, looming among the mists, exhaled the season, and every cold stone breathed it out. The tortured trees by the dark lake burned and dripped, their leaves snatched by the wind were whirled in wild circles through the towers. The clouds mouldered as they lay coiled, or shifted themselves uneasily upon the stone skyfield, sending up wreathes that drifted through the turrets and swarmed up hidden walls (Stone Quotes)
If you’re gonna use me as a stepping stone, you’d better step hard! (Stone Quotes)
With education symmetrical and true we will take the dead mass buried by slavery’s hand and touch them to life. This beauteous angel, which has always done its work for those on earth, will roll away the stone from the tomb where is buried a race, and my people will come forth to their glory and the amazement of the world (Stone Quotes)
A man is likewise form and expression, a written sign thrown unto boundless matter, an undifferentiated word of what is. I’ve therefore been created in the image of the inscriptions that, as a child, I used to project unto my bits of bone, stone, wood, and iron, probably even in the image of a single one of their words, a single one of their letters (Stone Quotes)
It would be a miracle, for example, if I dropped a stone and it rose upwards. But is it no miracle that it falls to the ground? (Stone Quotes)
I feel like a stone you have picked up and thrown to the hard rock bottom of your heart (Stone Quotes)
When you start a show, the plans are not set in stone. They’re really mutable, cocktail napkin sketches (Stone Quotes)
Australians are very provincial in many ways. If they feel that you’ve used them as a stepping stone to bigger things, they resent it (Stone Quotes)
For the scientists, they’re kind of puzzled and pleased that somebody finds their work interesting. It makes it fun for me. I feel like I’ve sort of turned over a stone that hasn’t been turned over (Stone Quotes)
I’ll say that I don’t think you can throw a stone and not come in contact with someone who knows someone or has problems with substance abuse (Stone Quotes)
In creation myths, a God shapes mud or clay into living form, much like a potter throws a pot or a sculptor reveals the statue within a block of marble. But a writer has to create his own clay or stone before he can begin shaping life from it (Stone Quotes)
When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned (Stone Quotes)
Have I ever written anything that has really changed something? What I believe is that you can’t change anything without using art. I believe that the drops wear away the stone. I try to be part of that army (Stone Quotes)
I’d rather support the issues I truly believe in than give my vote to parties that court votes at the time of the election. I like to think that my vote strengthens the green foundation stone (Stone Quotes)
How dreadful it is that because of our wills we can never love anything without messing it around! We couldn’t even love a tree, a stone even; for sooner or later we should be pruning the tree or chipping a bit off the stone (Stone Quotes)
Beyond the terrace, a light breeze stirred the reeds at the edge of the pond. Looking out at this intimate vista, one could see the reeds and a stone lantern and the brightest of the evening’s stars floating on the gloaming mirror of the pond. Then the breeze came again to crack the water’s surface, and the picture was flooded (Stone Quotes)
I will search for hidden talents that I didn’t know I had and do my best to cultivate them. I am grateful for each day, and I will try to use each day as a stepping stone to greater achievements (Stone Quotes)
The sign of our time is that the dignity of the human personality has no place: the age is, as are its laws, impersonal, its heart as of stone... Yet on arrest, in the name of these laws, we die like dogs, neither executioner nor victim making a sound. Because he has to gasp for air all his life, panting for breath is the man of today’s only way out (Stone Quotes)
Pray do not grieve so; but go and take a stone, and place it in the hole, and fancy that the gold is still lying there. It will do you quite the same service; for when the gold was there, you had it not, as you did not make the slightest use of it (Stone Quotes)
The voice of wisdom is inherent within us and willing to guide us when we stop to listen. Of course, there are times when we feel we’ve been still as stone, and the still, small voice is still too quiet to hear. When this happens, the challenge is to practice quieting your mind anyway. Stopping and asking, quieting and listening, trusting and waiting. Waiting is difficult but worth the effort because a quiet, uncluttered mind is a natural antenna for whispers of wisdom from within (Stone Quotes)
The love of a dog for his master is notorious; in the agony of death he has been known to caress his master, and everyone has heard of the dog suffering under vivisection, who licked the hand of the operator; this man, unless he had a heart of stone, must have felt remorse to the last hour of his life (Stone Quotes)
Focus on an object of some type, hopefully an object that’s beautiful or powerful. You could find a pretty colored stone that you just feel good about (Stone Quotes)
What you gain in internal knowledge goes from one lifetime to another. It is not wasted. Unlike those stone edifices that will fade, your internal knowledge will stay with you from one incarnation to another (Stone Quotes)
I know that in many things I am not like others, but I do not know what I really am like. Man cannot compare himself with any other creature; he is not a monkey, not a cow, not a tree. I am a man. But what is it to be that? Like every other being, I am a splinter of the infinite deity, but I cannot contrast myself with any animal, any plant or any stone. Only a mythical being has a range greater than man’s. How then can man form any definite opinions about himself? (Stone Quotes)
The bite of conscience, like the bite of a dog into a stone, is a stupidity (Stone Quotes)
A painting or sculpture not modelled on any real object is every bit as concrete and sensuous as a leaf or a stone... but it is an incomplete art which privileges the intellect to the detriment of the senses (Stone Quotes)
A fellow will hack half a year at a block of marble to make something in stone that hardly resembles a man. The value of statuary is owing to its difficulty. You would not value the finest head cut upon a carrot (Stone Quotes)
My whole life has been spent walking by the side of a bottomless chasm, jumping from stone to stone. Sometimes I try to leave my narrow path and join the swirling mainstream of life, but I always find myself drawn inexorably back towards the chasm’s edge, and there I shall walk until the day I finally fall into the abyss (Stone Quotes)
One begins to realize that art... in setting out to express nature with ever growing accuracy, teaches us to look, to perceive, to feel. The stone itself becomes an organic substance, and one can feel it being transformed as one moment in its life succeeds another (Stone Quotes)
Your art is to be the praise of something that you love. It may only be the praise of a shell or a stone (Stone Quotes)
