Turning Quotes

I’m alarmed that to think than modern science may be turning creativity into a medical disorder Picture Quote #1

When a woman dresses modestly, I can take her seriously as a woman because she doesn’t look like she’s begging for attention. She knows that she’s worth discovering. Such humility is radiant. Unfortunately, many women are so preoccupied with turning men’s heads that they overlook their power to turn our hearts Picture Quote #1

Act as if the universe is a prodigious miracle created for your amusement and illumination. Assume that secret helpers are working behind the scenes to assist you in turning into the gorgeous masterpiece you were born to be. Join the conspiracy to shower all of creation with blessings Picture Quote #1

A painting, you know, it’s all dirty material. But it’s about transformation. Taking that earth, that heavy earthen kind of thing, turning it into air and light Picture Quote #1

It is when one begins to lose the consciousness of freedom, and when the idea of necessity enters the world at all, when there is any hurry or strain anywhere, a letter to be written or a train to catch, when you have got to work, to make the horses of the dream gallop, or to make the rifles go off, that the dream is declining, and turning into the nightmare, which belongs to the poorest and most vulgar class of dreams Picture Quote #1

Fatherhood is the unending imperfect task of turning yourself into your dad while secretly maintaining the unbridled elation of your boyhood Picture Quote #1

Nothing in the world can be compared to the human face. It is a land one can never tire of exploring. There is no greater experience in a studio than to witness the expression of a sensitive face under the mysterious power of inspiration. To see it animated from inside, and turning into poetry Picture Quote #1

There is no clear sign that the economy is turning the corner in a meaningful way Picture Quote #1

I think for anyone who’s gone through a crisis, there comes a turning point, an epiphany, that marks the beginning of the end Picture Quote #1

Every time I jog through the world, I am awed by what I find. On a winter morning, when it seems too cold and slippery for safe jogging or bicycling, I can still go out and experience the glory of sunlight turning icy branches into strings of sparkling diamonds Picture Quote #1

You will stop turning to food when you start understanding in your body, not just your mind, that there is something better... Truth, not force, does the work of ending compulsive eating Picture Quote #1

The first snow always startles. It covers the tricycle in the driveway, turning its frame into an abstact sculpture that says: See how quickly yesterday turns into today Picture Quote #1

It is exceedingly difficult to maintain a sense of absence without turning that absence into some kind of presence Picture Quote #1

To be a successful boxer, the last thing you need to be doing is turning up to the gym stoned. You’re going to get beaten up if you do that Picture Quote #1

Despite my extremely modest prices, dealers and art lovers are turning their backs on me. It is very depressing to see the lack of interest shown in an art object which has no market value Picture Quote #1

Making art is about accepting what’s going on around you and turning it into Picture Quote #1

When you’re turning the crankset, you’re riding the bike. When you’re coasting, you’re just along for the ride Picture Quote #1

It never ceases to amaze us that when we were in kindergarten they taught us that a frog turning into a prince was a nursery fairy tale, but when we got to college they told us that a frog turning into a prince was science Picture Quote #1

Books, like all art, breed in us desire. In times of crisis and fear and misrepresentation we need desire, or else we shut down and hide out in our houses, succumbing to infotainment and the ease of an available latte, turning off our brains and emotions. Books breed desire Picture Quote #1

The light is reached not by turning back from the darkness, but by going through it Picture Quote #1

Dub music is like a long echo delay, looping through time... turning the rational musical order into an ocean of sensation Picture Quote #1

I never regretted turning down anything, I never regretted losing a job because I always felt something else was out there Picture Quote #1

Like the sorcerer of old, the television set casts its magic spell, freezing speech and action, turning the living into silent statues so long as the enchantment lasts. The primary danger of the television screen lies not so much in the behavior it produces, although there is danger there, as in the behavior it prevents: the talks, the games, the family festivities... through which much of the child’s learning takes place and through which his character is formed. Turning on the television set can turn off the process that transforms children into people Picture Quote #1

The smell of factory farms... many notice these places only when the odours reach their homes, affecting their own quality of life. We create these animals for our profit and pleasure, playing with their genes, violating their dignity as living creatures, forcing them to lie and live in their own urine and excrement, turning pens into penitentiaries and frustrating their every desire except what is needed to keep them breathing and breeding. And then we complain about the smell Picture Quote #1

Dreaming is a form of action. Idleness is a form of action. The idle man stares at the sky and sees what constitutes our eternal ceiling. The sky is one of the things that constructs us, one of our constants. But it is not what people believe. I should like to close this circle by turning over in my bed and scrutinizing the stars Picture Quote #1

I had seen how in an instant, those you called friends could suddenly become tormentors, sniffing out a weakness or a difference, turning their own fear of ostracism into a weapon with which they could beat the victim away, afraid that being an outsider, and individual even, was somehow infectious Picture Quote #1

The single most important thing in coaching is turning out educated kids who are ready for society Picture Quote #1

There’s great value to knitting or digging up your garden or chopping up vegetables for soup, because you’re taking some time away from turning the pages, answering your emails, talking to people on the phone, and you’re letting your brain process whatever is stuck up in there Picture Quote #1

Writing songs has always been hard and easy. It’s not always easy when you want it to be, and then sometimes it’s just like turning on the faucet. That’s just the nature of it Picture Quote #1

Turning the thermostat down is something that I do pretty reluctantly. I like to be able to walk around in whatever I fancy at home Picture Quote #1
