Wind Quotes

The wind flew. God told to wind to condense itself and out of the flurry came the horse. But with the spark of sprit the horse flew by the wind itself Picture Quote #1

In the sheltered heart of the clumps last year’s foliage still clings to the lower branches, tatters of orange that mutter with the passage of the wind, the talk of old women warning the green generation of what they, too, must come to when the sap runs back Picture Quote #1

I might have been born in a hovel, but I determined to travel with the wind and the stars Picture Quote #1

Follow your heart wherever it takes you. Nobody knows where the wind blows. No one can say Picture Quote #1

Here in the deep powder snow you don’t hear yourself ski. You don’t hear your long turns or your short turns. You just float. The faster you go, the better. The less you struggle, the better. You move through the deep light snow, through the deep snow with some crust on it, through the deep snow with some wind in it Picture Quote #1

Someone once told me that children are like kites. You struggle just to get them in the air; they crash; you add a longer tail. Then they get caught in a tree; you climb up and bring them down, and untangle the string; you run to get them aloft again. Finally, the kite is airborne, and it flies higher and higher, as you let out more string, until it’s so high in the sky, it looks like a bird. And if the string snaps, and you’ve done your job right, the kite will continue to soar in the wind, all by itself Picture Quote #1

I think the way the greens are, you need to be very accurate with your irons. Whether there’s wind or not, the most important thing out here is being able to control the distance of your irons and the direction. I’ve done that pretty well the last couple of days Picture Quote #1

I’m so quick, I could spit in the wind, duck, and let it hit the old lady behind me Picture Quote #1

The map of the world is always changing; sometimes it happens overnight. All it takes is the blink of an eye, the squeeze of a trigger, a sudden gust of wind. Wake up and your life is perched on a precipice; fall asleep, it swallows you whole Picture Quote #1

Obstacles can arise from good as well as bad circumstances, but they should never deter or overpower you. Be like the earth, which supports all living creatures indiscriminately, without distinguishing good from bad. The earth is simply there. Your practice should be strengthened by the difficult situations you encounter, just as a bonfire in a strong wind is not blown out, but blazes even brighter Picture Quote #1

To maintain discipline in the military, it must have been necessary at that time. For soldiers who risked their lives in circumstances where bullets are flying around like rain and wind, if you want them to get some rest, a comfort women system was necessary. That’s clear to anyone Picture Quote #1

I take the seashell from my jeans pocket and rub my fingers across its silken, indented surface, shallow as my own open hand. This chalice, subtly shaped by some divine intelligence to allow water to flow in and out with ease, is what I aspire to become: a vessel through which feelings can pour in and spill right out again, without all the grasping and holding that obstructs the flow. Can I be as serene and simple as this bleached shell, rubbed smooth by wind and water, receiving and releasing, filling and emptying and filling again, eternally receptive to the currents of life? Picture Quote #1

I can remember being eight years old and having infinite possibilities. But life ends up being so much less that we thought it would be when we were kids, with relationships that are so empty and stupid and brutal. If you don’t find a way to break the chain and change in some way, then you wind up, as the rhyme goes: a murder of one, for sorrow Picture Quote #1

A cool breeze stirred my hair at that moment, as the night wind began to come down from the hills, but it felt like a breath from another world Picture Quote #1

A book’s alright when the weather’s foul and there’s nothing else to do, but why sit and read when the wind is calling your name? Picture Quote #1

How could anyone not want to live when there were so many things to live for? There were rainy nights and wind and the slap of the sea and the moon. There were books to read and pictures to paint and music Picture Quote #1

Yeah, I paint in my spare time, just to relax myself and wind down a bit Picture Quote #1

To move into the lead means making an act requiring fierceness and confidence. But fear must play some part... no relaxation is possible, and all discretion is thrown into the wind Picture Quote #1

The worse the country, the more tortured it is by water and wind, the more broken and carved, the more it attracts fossil hunters, who depend on the planet to open itself to us. We can only scratch away at what natural forces have brought to the surface Picture Quote #1

He who, having lost one ideal, refuses to give his heart and soul to another and nobler, is like a man who declines to build a house on the rock because the wind and rain have ruined his house on the sand Picture Quote #1

Forget about enlightenment. Sit down wherever you are and listen to the wind that is singing in your veins. Feel the love, the longing and the fear in your bones. Open your heart to who you are, right now, not who you would like to be. Not the saint you’re striving to become. But the being right here before you, inside you, around you. All of you is holy. You’re already more and less than whatever you can know. Breathe out, look in, let go Picture Quote #1

If the wind is in your face, you swing too hard just to get the ball through it; if the wind is at your back, you swing too hard just to see how far you can get the ball to go Picture Quote #1

My room was in one of those turrets and at night I could hear the sea and the faint rustle of eelgrass in the soft wind. The weather was perfect that summer. No storms. Blue skies and just the right amount of wind every day. The sailors were in heaven Picture Quote #1

If you can reincarnate, what do you wanna be in your next life? I think I want to become a rock. A stone has no troubles and lives a simple life. The worst that could happen would be being stepped on, but that won’t hurt. Am I right? What about you? What are you thinking? I’ve already thought it over for you. You’ll become the wind. Because the wind is one of the world’s cleanest things. Moreover, the wind can blow upon the rock, moving it. As it blows, the rock will eventually turn into sand. This way, the sand and wind can be together. Sand and wind are meant to be together Picture Quote #1

The potential for alternative energy sources, mainly solar and wind power, to completely replace coal and gas for utility generation globally is, I think, certain. The question is only whether it takes 30 years or 70 years Picture Quote #1

Who gave you the ability to contemplate the beauty of the skies, the course of the sun, the round moon, the millions of stars, the harmony and rhythm that issue from the world as from a lyre, the return of the seasons, the alternation of the months, the demarcation of day and night, the fruits of the earth, the vastness of the air, the ceaseless motion of the waves, the sound of the wind? Picture Quote #1

People don’t fear the wind until it fells a tree. Then, they say it’s too much Picture Quote #1

The populace is like the sea motionless in itself, but stirred by every wind, even the lightest breeze Picture Quote #1

It was apparent that many of the speeds used in the estimates were too large. The scale guiding wind speeds wasn’t in tune with reality Picture Quote #1

One can get a proper insight into the practice of flying only by actual flying experiments... The manner in which we have to meet the irregularities of the wind, when soaring in the air, can only be learnt by being in the air itself... The only way which leads us to a quick development in human flight is a systematic and energetic practice in actual flying experiments Picture Quote #1
