Urf Quotes

If we could look through the skull into the brain of a consciously thinking person, and if the place of optimal excitability were luminous, then we should see playing over the cerebral surface, a bright spot with fantastic, waving borders constantly fluctuating in size and form, surrounded by a darkness more or less deep, covering the rest of the hemisphere Picture Quote #1

In the case of those solids, whether of earth, or rock, which enclose on all sides and contain crystals, selenites, marcasites, plants and their parts, bones and the shells of animals, and other bodies of this kind which are possessed of a smooth surface, these same bodies had already become hard at the time when the matter of the earth and rock containing them was still fluid. And not only did the earth and rock not produce the bodies contained in them, but they did not even exist as such when those bodies were produced in them Picture Quote #1

The surface of the earth is not simply a stage on which the thousands of present and past inhabitants played their parts in turn. There are much more intimate relations between the earth and the living organisms which populated it, and it may even be demonstrated that the earth was developed because of them Picture Quote #1

The collision of hail or rain with hard surfaces, or the song of cicadas in a summer field. These sonic events are made out of thousands of isolated sounds; this multitude of sounds, seen as totality, is a new sonic event Picture Quote #1

Cats may sense early on that you don’t like paw prints on your butter, but they will jump onto any surface in the home as long as no one sees it happen Picture Quote #1

$The breaking up of the terrestrial globe, this it is we witness. It doubtless began a long time ago, and the brevity of human life enables us to contemplate it without dismay. It is not only in the great mountain ranges that the traces of this process are found. Great segments of the earth’s crust have sunk hundreds, in some cases, even thousands, of feet deep, and not the slightest inequality of the surface remains to indicate the fracture; the different nature of the rocks and the discoveries made in mining alone reveal its presence. Time has levelled all Picture Quote #1$

I can be surfing the exact same wave and then sometimes something will just set off, even if I’m riding the same board the whole time. Something will just set off and it just feels like you can push just that extra bit harder Picture Quote #1

I think it’s just really made me appreciate life more. I’ve known people die before that and I was really rattled by it but when it hit so close to home... it was just so different. I just thought about what I really wanted to do. I want to be a pro surfer and that’s what I’m going to do Picture Quote #1

Surfers are in tune with the weather because if there’s a storm coming, there are waves coming. I love the rain Picture Quote #1

Waves are fascinating, the way they are created by wind far out at sea and groomed by different winds as they come closer to shore. We surfers ride the very last part of the wave’s life before it crashes and disappears, never to be seen again Picture Quote #1

When you’re surfing you’re not thinking about where you parked the car or what you’re going to do when you grow up or what you’re going to buy when you’ve got lots of money. You know, you’re just there. You’re in the moment. And I think in a contemporary world, that’s a rare privilege Picture Quote #1

My mother was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. There are moments when I remember her beauty, unadorned, unposed, not in some artificial place like a set or a photo call but rather captured outdoors in nature, where she took my breath away. When those moments surface, I miss her the most Picture Quote #1

I don’t care how intelligent or attractive someone is, if he zaps your energy, he isn’t for you. True chemistry is more than intellectual compatibility. Beyond surfaces, you must be intuitively at ease Picture Quote #1

It’s easy to photograph light reflecting from a surface, the truly hard part is capturing the light in the air Picture Quote #1

In a photograph, if I am able to evoke not alone a feeling of the reality of the surface physical world but also a feeling of the reality of existence that lies mysteriously and invisibly beneath its surface, I feel I have succeeded. At their best, photographs as symbols not only serve to help illuminate some of the darkness of the unknown, they also serve to lessen the fears that too often accompany the journeys from the known to the unknown Picture Quote #1

I love sailing and water sports; whether it’s water skiing, body boarding or surfing or simply swimming in the ocean Picture Quote #1

All you’ll get from strangers is surface pleasantry or indifference. Only someone who loves you will criticize you Picture Quote #1

The moods of a river change from hour to hour and day to day. It can be still and serene as a glassy mirror, reflecting the clouds that pass over it and the trees on its banks. Or, when a light breeze springs up, the surface of the river may be broken into little diamond lights reflecting the distant sun Picture Quote #1

Thus we conclude, that the strata both primary and secondary, both those of ancient and those of more recent origin, have had their materials furnished from the ruins of former continents, from the dissolution of rocks, or the destruction of animal or vegetable bodies, similar, at least in some respects, to those that now occupy the surface of the earth Picture Quote #1

It’s hard for me to describe the joy I felt after I stood up and rode wave in for the first time after the attack. I was incredibly thankful and happy inside. The tiny bit of doubt that would sometimes tell me you’ll never surf again was gone in one wave Picture Quote #1

My only real fear was that I would not be able to surf again because I was concerned that I would not physically be able to do it. I knew that if I wasn’t able to surf then my life would really change Picture Quote #1

I can only be me. I do what I do, I’m not a jazz player... I don’t play jazz standards, at least not in any recognizable way. It’s not my turf but I have plenty of respect for that style of playing Picture Quote #1

The majority should not be punished and subjected to a licensing curfew because of the bad behavior of the minority Picture Quote #1

Scrape the surface of language, and you will behold interstellar space and the skin that encloses it Picture Quote #1

I imagined that if the surface of the package imitated the colour and texture of the fruit skin, then the object would reproduce the feeling of the real skin Picture Quote #1

The context of the general teachings is one of talking to a sentient being who is experiencing uninterrupted bewilderment? one thought or emotion after another like the surface of the ocean in turmoil, without any recognition of mind essence. This confusion is continuous, without almost any break, life after life Picture Quote #1

All I care about, to be honest, is surfing. I love surfing more than anything. To me, there’s nothing like that Picture Quote #1

I wouldn’t say that cutting was pleasurable, but there is a sense of euphoria that follows cutting yourself. The quick pinch of pain and the sight of blood snaps you back to the surface and you start to appreciate being alive Picture Quote #1

I can be a little bit outrageous. I can be a lot of things. I’m a bit of an adrenaline junkie, so I love to go out there and do kind of crazy stuff which is slightly outrageous, like bungee jumping, skydiving, surfing and that sort of stuff. But I also like to just chill with my friends and go and see movies and do normal things Picture Quote #1

Mavericks and its talent deserve this innovation and respect. Now is the time to harness its power for the world to experience. These athletes amaze me with each wave ridden; I am honored to take on such an empowering responsibility. I look forward to celebrating these artists of big wave surfing through showcasing the most important wave in history Picture Quote #1
