Text Quotes
For a few thousand years, women had no history. Marriage was our calling, and meekness our virtue. Over the last century, in stuttering succession, we have gained a voice, a vote, a room, a playing field of our own. Decorously or defiantly, we now approach what surely qualifies as the final frontier  (Thousand Years Quotes) To say she was my girlfriend was absurd: no one the wrong side of thirty has a girlfriend… I suppose I ought to have realize it’s ominous that forty thousand years of human language had failed to produce a word for our relationship  (Thousand Years Quotes) We made in those days tiny identical rooms inside our bodies which the men who uncover our graves will find in a thousand years shining and whole  (Thousand Years Quotes) In a thousand years time this day will have existed for a thousand years to the day. And the ignorance of the whole world about what they’ve said today will have a date too  (Thousand Years Quotes) On this day I want to tell you about, which will be about a thousand years from now, there were a boy, a girl and a love story  (Thousand Years Quotes) Forty thousand years of evolution and we’ve barely even tapped the vastness of human potential  (Thousand Years Quotes) The miracle of man is not how far he has sunk but how magnificently he has risen. We are known among the stars by our poems, not our corpses. No creature who began as a mathematical improbability, who was selected through millions of years of unprecedented environmental hardship and change for ruggedness, ruthlessness, cunning, and adaptability, and who in the short ten thousand years of what we may call civilization has achieved such wonders as we find about us, may be regarded as a creature without promise  (Thousand Years Quotes) The evolution of the human race will not be accomplished in the ten thousand years of tame animals, but in the million years of wild animals, because man is, and always will be, a wild animal  (Thousand Years Quotes) I suspect that the changes that have taken place during the last century in the average man’s fundamental beliefs, in his philosophy, in his concept of religion. in his whole world outlook, are greater than the changes that occurred during the preceding four thousand years all put together... because of science and its applications to human life, for these have bloomed in my time as no one in history had had ever dreamed could be possible  (Thousand Years Quotes) The six thousand years of human history form but a portion of the geologic day that is passing over us: they do not extend into the yesterday of the globe, far less touch the myriads of ages spread out beyond  (Thousand Years Quotes) If we go on as we are, we will destroy in the next century everything that the poets have been singing about for the past two thousand years  (Thousand Years Quotes) Are the problems of the world caused by bad people who need to be crushed? Or do people do bad things when they are in a certain situation? If it is the latter, then we can go around crushing the villains for another thousand years and nothing will change  (Thousand Years Quotes) I think all the poets and artists have always written for peace and love, and it hasn’t changed muchin the last two or three thousand years. But we hope  (Thousand Years Quotes) The ordinary people will consider it lack of simplicity to harmonize all the changes throughout ten thousand years. With a tired body and a frightened mind, they toil to avoid this and to take that. The sage alone has no prejudice. He therefore proceeds with utter simplicity and becomes one with transformation and always roams in the realm of unity  (Thousand Years Quotes) And all along I believed I would find you. Time has brought your heart to me. I have loved you for a thousand years. I’ll love you for a thousand more  (Thousand Years Quotes) If I were to live a thousand years, I would belong to you for all of them. If we were to live a thousand lives, I would want to make you mine in each one  (Thousand Years Quotes) Men ran after and ate horses for four hundred thousand years. The outcome is more than a love of horse flesh; it is a runner’s body  (Thousand Years Quotes) It was 100,000 years before we figured out what to do with fire. Imagine cavemen, sitting in front of a fire, eating raw meat for 100 thousand years  (Thousand Years Quotes) Perhaps today there is a greater kindness of tone, as there is greater ingenuity of expression to make up for the fact that all the real, solid, elemental jests against doctors were uttered some one or two thousand years ago  (Thousand Years Quotes) The definition of art has changed almost every day since the first artist created the first work at least fifty thousand years ago  (Thousand Years Quotes) Don’t forget that you are the product of a culture that went stark raving mad about ten thousand years ago. Adjust your thinking accordingly  (Thousand Years Quotes) We’re one of the last handmade art forms. There’s no fast way to make plays. It takes just as long and is just as hard as it was a thousand years ago  (Thousand Years Quotes) No matter when you had been to this spot before, a thousand years ago or a hundred thousand years ago, or if you came back to it a million years from now, you would see some different things each time, but the scene would be generally the same  (Thousand Years Quotes) As one lamp serves to dispel a thousand years of darkness, so one flash of wisdom destroys ten thousand years of ignorance  (Thousand Years Quotes) It is wonderful that five thousand years have now elapsed since the creation of the world, and still it is undecided whether or not there has ever been an instance of the spirit of any person appearing after death. All argument is against it; but all belief is for it  (Thousand Years Quotes) If you wish to see the thousand years, look at today; if you wish to understand the millionfold, then look at the one or the two  (Thousand Years Quotes) In order to be in control, you have to have a definite plan for at least a reasonable period of time. So how, may I ask, can man be in control if he can’t even draw up a plan for a ridiculously short period of time, say, a thousand years, and is, moreover, unable to ensure his own safety for even the next day?  (Thousand Years Quotes) Through books you can start today where the great thinkers of yesterday left off, because books have immortalized man’s knowledge. Thinkers, dead a thousand years, are as alive in their books today as when they walked the earth  (Thousand Years Quotes) A fool may scrawl on a slate and if no one has the wit to wipe it clean for a thousand years, the scrawl becomes the wisdom of ages  (Thousand Years Quotes) Reason unites us, not only with our contemporaries, but with men who lived two thousand years before us, and with those who will live after us  (Thousand Years Quotes)
