Text Quotes
If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called. I am called to help the individual; to love each poor person. Not to deal with institutions. I am in no position to judge  (Who Quotes) Smile at each other, smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other - it doesn't matter who it is - and that will help you to grow up in greater love for each other  (Who Quotes) The trouble is that rich people, well-to-do people, very often don't really know who the poor are; and that is why we can forgive them, for knowledge can only lead to love, and love to service. And so, if they are not touched by them, it's because they do not know them  (Who Quotes) Hope is our life when first our life grows clear, hope and delight, scarce crossed by lines of fear: yet the day comes when fain we would not hope - but for as much as we with life must cope, struggling with this and that - and who knows why? Hope will not give us up to certainty, but still must bide with us  (Who Quotes) But though bare merit might in Rome appear the strongest plea for favour, 'tis not here; we form our judgment in another way; and they will best succeed, who best can pay; those, who would gain the votes of British tribes, must add to force of merit, force of bribes  (Who Quotes) A servile race who, in mere want of fault, all merit place; who blind obedience pay to ancient schools, bigots to Greece, and slaves to musty rules  (Who Quotes) Deficiency motivation doesn't work. It will lead to a life-long pursuit of try to fix me. Learn to appreciate what you have and where and who you are  (Who Quotes) Successful people make money. It's not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do  (Who Quotes) People who want the most approval get the least and people who need approval the least get the most  (Who Quotes) I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free  (Who Quotes) The whole history of civilization is strewn with creeds and institutions which were invaluable at first, and deadly afterwards  (Who Quotes) Poverty is an anomaly to rich people; it is very difficult to make out why people who want dinner do not ring the bell  (Who Quotes) I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief... For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free  (Who Quotes) These are people who are capable of devotion, public devotion, to justice. They meant what they said and every day that passes, they mean it more  (Who Quotes) Mrs. Stone found herself thinking that surely such beauty was a world of its own whose anarchy had a sort of godly license  (Who Quotes) The rule, acknowledged or not, seems to be that if we have great power we must use it. We would use a steam shovel to pick up a dime. We have experts who can prove there is no other way to do it  (Who Quotes) Notice, for example, that people who talk about the joys of childhood are always adults. Only an adult, utterly remote from the reality of childhood, could suppose it is time of joys  (Who Quotes) There was scarcely a woman alive, it seemed, who could resist the urge to haul men down onto beds, car seats, kitchen floors, dining-room tables, park grass, parlor sofas, or packing crates, entwine warm thighs around them, and pant in ecstasy  (Who Quotes) Happiness is a small and unworthy goal for something as big and fancy as a whole lifetime, and should be taken in small doses  (Who Quotes) Our model citizen is a sophisticate who before puberty understands how to produce a baby, but who at the age of thirty will not know how to produce a potato  (Who Quotes) The more local and settled a culture, the better it stays put, the less the damage. It is the foreigner whose road of excess leads to a desert … a man with a machine and inadequate culture … is a pestilence. He shakes more than he can hold  (Who Quotes) The way liberals are interpreting the First Amendment today is that it prevents anyone who is religious from being in government. They say that violates the prohibition against church and state  (Who Quotes) Too many whites are getting away with drug use...Too many whites are getting away with drug sales...The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too  (Who Quotes) You've got enough in here that people who get hold of this - like AP or any of the state-controlled media - they're going to focus on the soap opera aspects of your book and they're going to ignore what is truly one of the most substantive policy books I've read  (Who Quotes) For greatness after all, in spite of its name, appears to be not so much a certain size as a certain quality in human lives. It may be present in lives whose range is very small  (Who Quotes) A reader who quarrels with postulates, who dislikes Hamlet because he does not believe that there are ghosts or that people speak in pentameters, clearly has no business in literature  (Who Quotes) Those who are concerned with the arts are often asked questions, not always sympathetic ones, about the use or value of what they are doing. It is probably impossible to answer such questions directly, or at any rate to answer the people who ask them  (Who Quotes) No matter how much experience we may gather in life, we can never in life get the dimension of experience that the imagination gives us. Only the arts and sciences can do that, and of these, only literature gives us the whole sweep and range of human imagination as it sees itself  (Who Quotes) The worst thing we can say about God is that he knows all. The best thing we can say of him is that, on the whole, he tends to keep his knowledge to himself  (Who Quotes) The mark of a great writer: who sees his own time, but with a detachment that makes him communicable to other ages  (Who Quotes)
