The East Quotes

Well I travelled quite a lot in the east, and one of the things that impressed me greatly was the buddhist notion of the continuity of things, the wheel of life which is what we’re talking about, the ever turning wheel Picture Quote #1

To someone standing in the nave, looking down the length of the church toward the east, the round window would seem like a huge sun exploding into innumerable shards of gorgeous color Picture Quote #1

Bright colours in the west, giant butterflies dancing as night crept like a cripple toward the east Picture Quote #1

Dor woke again as dawn came. The sun had somehow gotten around to the east, where the land was, and dried off so that it could shine again Picture Quote #1

Terrorism is not a limited threat, it is a world wide operation. Today, many countries in the east, and in the west, in the north, and in the south, have been the targets of the nefarious designs of terrorists Picture Quote #1

When they turned off, it was still early in the pink and green fields. The fumes of morning, sweet and bitter, sprang up where they walked. The insects ticked softly, their strength in reserve; butterflies chopped the air, going to the east, and the birds flew carelessly and sang by fits and starts, not the way they did in the evening in sustained and drowsy songs Picture Quote #1

A beginning must be made somewhere and corner by corner, department by department, space by space, all will be known and conquered. In the end, all must be explored, and whether one begins in the east or the west cannot matter much. The big concern is the extent to which a man offers himself, mind and body, to his worthwhile work. Upon that will growth depend Picture Quote #1

Water indeed will flow indifferently to the east or west, but will it flow indifferently up or down? The tendency of our nature to good is like the tendency of water to flow downwards. There are none but have this tendency to good, just as all water flows downward Picture Quote #1

The wind’s in the east.... I am always conscious of an uncomfortable sensation now and then when the wind is blowing in the east Picture Quote #1

The man who remains in his sin will be damned just as surely as the sun comes up in the east and goes down in the west Picture Quote #1

What is a firm hand to me, of what use to me is this astonishing power if I cannot change the order of things, if I cannot make the sun set in the east, that suffering diminish and that beings no longer die? Picture Quote #1

We might as easily reprove the east wind, or the frost, as a political party, whose members, for the most part, could give no account of their position, but stand for the defence of those interests in which they find themselves Picture Quote #1

It is wrong to think that misfortunes come from the east or from the west; they originate within one’s own mind Picture Quote #1

I inhale great draught of space... the east and west are mine... and the north and south are mine... I am grandeur than I thought... I did not know I held so much goodness Picture Quote #1

After all my years of playing soldiers, and then of reading History, I have almost a mania to be in the East, to see fighting, and to serve Picture Quote #1

Die happily and look forward to taking up a new and better form. Like the sun, only when you set in the west can you rise in the east Picture Quote #1

Take a quick dip, relax with a schnapps and a sandwich, stretch out, have a smoke, take a nap or just rest, and then sit around and chat until three. Then I hunt some more until sundown, bathe again, put on white tie and tails to keep up appearances, eat a huge dinner, smoke a cigar and sleep like a log until the sun comes up again to redden the eastern sky. This is living…. Could it be more perfect? Picture Quote #1

A large drop of sun lingered on the horizon and then dripped over and was gone, and the sky was brilliant over the spot where it had gone, and a torn cloud, like a bloody rag, hung over the spot of its going. And dusk crept over the sky from the eastern horizon, and darkness crept over the land from the east Picture Quote #1

Altars should face the east, and should always be placed on a lower level than are the statues in the temples, so that those who are praying and sacrificing may look upwards towards the divinity Picture Quote #1

I love the look of you, the lure of you the sweet of you, and the pure of you the eyes, the arms, and the mouth of you the east, west, north, and the south of you Picture Quote #1

The west with second pomp is bright Though in the east the dusk is thickening, twilight’s first star breaks forth in white, into night’s gold each moment quickening Picture Quote #1

I know two L.A.s. Half my life was around the house my folks had for 46 years at 3rd and Norton. The other half was in Boyle Heights on the Eastside, working with gang members Picture Quote #1

Columbus was the first to come to the east. Vikings don’t count, and neither do all the people who were standing on the beaches and waving when he got here Picture Quote #1

Women are oppressed in the east, in the west, in the south, in the north. Women are oppressed inside, outside home, a woman is oppressed in religion, she is oppressed outside religion Picture Quote #1

I always thought the biggest failing of Americans was their lack of irony. They are very serious there! Naturally, there are exceptions... the Jewish, Italian, and Irish humor of the East Coast Picture Quote #1

It is not in the interest of the German people or in the interest of world peace that Germany should become a pawn or a partner in a military struggle for power between the East and the West Picture Quote #1
