Text Quotes
Modern bodybuilding is ritual, religion, sport, art, and science, awash in Western chemistry and mathematics. Defying nature, it surpasses it  (Wes Quotes) Out with stereotypes, feminism proclaims. But stereotypes are the west's stunning sexual personae, the vehicles of art's assault against nature. The moment there is imagination, there is myth  (Wes Quotes) I'm not sure I want popular opinion on my side - I've noticed those with the most opinions often have the fewest facts  (Wes Quotes) In today's impoverished dialogue, critiques of liberalism are often naively called conservative, as if twenty - five hundred years of Western intellectual tradition presented no other alternatives  (Wes Quotes) Sexual Personae seeks to demonstrate the unity and continuity of western culture - something that has inspired little belief since the period before World War I  (Wes Quotes) The piddling ignoramuses who deny that there is a distinct, discernible, objective western tradition are just woozy literati  (Wes Quotes) In science, read, by preference the newest works; in literature, the oldest. The classics are always modern  (Wes Quotes) Western science is a product of the Apollonian mind: its hope is that by naming and classification, by the cold light of intellect, archaic night can be pushed back and defeated  (Wes Quotes) And the sins of the Eastern father shall be visited upon the Western sons. Often taking their time, stored up in the genes like baldness or testicular carcinoma, but sometimes on the very same day  (Wes Quotes) More than England to the British West Indian or even Holland to the Surinamer, France is the mother country to the Martiniquan  (Wes Quotes) Dreams became issues of East versus West. Hopes became political rhetoric. Progress became a search for power and domination. Somewhere the truth was lost that people don't make war, governments do  (Wes Quotes) Roilant caught himself, with exasperation, slipping into vacuous philosophy, a sure sign his opinion of life was at its very lowest  (Wes Quotes) I always tell my Western friends that it is best to keep your own tradition. Changing religion is not easy and sometimes causes confusion. You must value your tradition and honor your own religion  (Wes Quotes) Historically, the East was more concerned with understanding the mind and the West was more involved in understanding matter  (Wes Quotes) Oh, that that old man in Westmoreland would die and be gathered to his fathers, now that he was full of years and ripe for the sickle! But there was no sign of death about the old man  (Wes Quotes) Islam is a religion of success. Unlike Christianity, which has as its main image, in the west at least, a man dying in a devastating, disgraceful, helpless death  (Wes Quotes) We must go out into a desert of some kind (your backyard will do) and come into a personal experience of the awesome love of God  (Wes Quotes) But in the evening of my memory always I come back to West Point. Always there echoes and re-echoes: Duty, honor, country  (Wes Quotes) Laying in bed this morning contemplating how amazing it would be if somehow Oscar Wilde and Mae West could twitter from the grave  (Wes Quotes) It's a mystery. That's the first thing that interests me about the idea of God. If there is one, it's mysterious and powerful and awesome to even consider the concept, and you have to take it seriously  (Wes Quotes) Being of no power to make his wishes good: His promises fly so beyond his state That what he speaks is all in debt; he owes For every word  (Wes Quotes) We worship an awesome God in the blue states, and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the red states. We coach little league in the blue states and have gay friends in the red states  (Wes Quotes) The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That's one thing about a little education. It spoils you for actual work. The more you know the more you think somebody owes you a living  (Wes Quotes) It adds a precious seeing to the eye; a lover's eyes will gaze an eagle blind; a lover's ear will hear the lowest sound  (Wes Quotes) Now, neighbor confines, purge you of your scum! Have you a ruffian that will swear, drink, dance, revel the night, rob, murder, and commit the oldest sins the newest kind of ways?  (Wes Quotes) Through loyalty to the past, our mind refuses to realize that tomorrow's joy is possible only if today's makes way for it; that each wave owes the beauty of its line only to the withdrawal of the preceding one  (Wes Quotes) Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things  (Wes Quotes) Well, Art is Art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water. And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now you tell me what you know  (Wes Quotes) Rather proclaim it, westmoreland, through my host, that he which hath no stomach to this fight, let him depart; his passport shall be made, and crowns for convoy put into his purse  (Wes Quotes) When men hear women want a commitment, they think it means commitment to a romantic relationship, but that's not it. It's a commitment to not floating around anymore. I want a guy who is entrenched in his own life. Entrenched is awesome  (Wes Quotes)
