Text Quotes
I felt then, as I feel now, that the politicians who took us to war should have been given the guns and told to settle their differences themselves, instead of organizing nothing better than legalized mass murder  (Urd Quotes) If you play a gay role, it sticks more than it does if an actor were to play a murderer or a psychopath  (Urd Quotes) Book love is something like romantic love. When we are reading a really great book, burdens feel lighter, cares seem smaller, and commonplaces are suddenly delightful. You become your best optimistic self. Like romantic love, book love fills you with a certain warmth and completeness. The world holds promise  (Urd Quotes) It’s not who you want to spend Friday night with, it’s who you want to spend all day Saturday with  (Urd Quotes) There are enough high hurdles to climb, as one travels through life, without having to scale artificial barriers created by law or silly regulations  (Urd Quotes) If you bear the cross unwillingly, you make it a burden, and load yourself more heavily; but you must bear it  (Urd Quotes) When humans act like animals, they become the most dangerous of animals to themselves and other humans, and this is because of another critical difference between humans and animals: Whereas animals are usually restrained by the limits of physical appetites, humans have mental appetites that can be far more gross and capacious than physical ones. Only humans squander and hoard, murder and pillage because of notions  (Urd Quotes) The burden you are carrying around is the burden of self. You seek release from that. You want to let it all go. You want to forget who you are and what you are. You wish to be the whole universe, infinite, endless  (Urd Quotes) People have a right to protest; they have a right to make their opinion. They can be very upset about what they consider to be a murder of a person in custody, but you cannot destroy property. First person does it goes to jail  (Urd Quotes) When we usually think of fears, in comics or in films, it’s most often fears on a relatively superficial level: fear of murderous insects, of ghosts, of zombies, or even fear of dying  (Urd Quotes) It’s weird that people expect me to be funny. I find it a real burden when I’m expected to be humorous on talk shows  (Urd Quotes) In love, everything is true, everything is false; it is the one subject on which one cannot express an absurdity  (Urd Quotes) The tragedy of human life consists in our vain attempts to stretch the limits of things which can never become unlimited, to reach the infinite by absurdly adding to the rungs of the ladder of the finite  (Urd Quotes) A little sturdiness when superiors are much in the wrong sometimes occasions consideration. And there is truth in the old saying that if you make yourself a sheep, the wolves will eat you  (Urd Quotes) The chief burden of the frustrated is the consciousness of a blemished, ineffectual self, and their chief desire is to slough off the unwanted self and begin a new life. They try to realize this desire either by finding a new identity or by blurring and camouflaging their individual distinctness; and both these ends are reached by imitation  (Urd Quotes) Religion and nationalism, as well as any custom and any belief however absurd and degrading, if it only connects the individual with others, are refuges from what man most dreads: isolation  (Urd Quotes) They, who passed away long ago, still exist in us, as predisposition, as burden upon our fate, as murmuring blood, and as gesture that rises up from the depths of time  (Urd Quotes) From zoning to labor to food safety to insurance, local food systems daily face a phalanx of regulatory hurdles designed and implemented to police industrial food models but which prejudicially wipe out the antidote: appropriate scaled local food systems  (Urd Quotes) Take the birds which you’ll have noticed in so many of my recent paintings. I never thought them up, they just materialized of their own accord; they were born on the canvas... it is absurd to read any sort of symbolic significance into them  (Urd Quotes) I myself believe that there is in every painter’s life a period of making absurdities. In my case I think that period is already long past  (Urd Quotes) Think of me getting up before 6, I’m at work by 7 and I continue until 6.30 in the evening, standing up all the time, nine canvases. It’s murderous  (Urd Quotes) It’s really absurd to make... a human image, with paint, today, when you think about it... But then all of a sudden, it was even more absurd not to do it  (Urd Quotes) If suicide be supposed a crime, it is only cowardice can impel us to it. If it be no crime, both prudence and courage should engage us to rid ourselves at once of existence when it becomes a burden. It is the only way that we can then be useful to society, by setting an example which, if imitated, would preserve every one his chance for happiness in life, and would effectually free him from all danger or misery  (Urd Quotes) Now comes the part where I relieve you, the little people, of the burden of your failed and useless lives. But remember, as my plastic surgeon always said: if you gotta go, go with a smile  (Urd Quotes) Quart of whiskey a day for months working hard on a long poem. Wife hiding bottles, myself hiding bottles. Murderous and suicidal. Many hospitalizations, many alibis  (Urd Quotes) To brand man with infamy, and let him free, is an absurdity that peoples our forests with assassins  (Urd Quotes) The ability to laugh at life is right at the top, with love and communication, in the hierarchy of our needs. Humour has much to do with pain; it exaggerates the anxieties and absurdities we feel, so that we gain distance and through laughter, relief  (Urd Quotes) Because I believe that abortion is murder, I also believe that force is justified in an attempt to stop it  (Urd Quotes) Our human landscape is overburdened with competitions and contests. Art need not be a contest. Art is a personal quest for quality. Quality is the forerunner of acceptance. Character is the forerunner of quality. Be your own discriminating connoisseur  (Urd Quotes) A woman who deliberately destroys a fetus is answerable for murder. And any fine distinction as to its being completely formed or unformed is not admissible amongst us  (Urd Quotes)
