Wind Quotes

It takes waking prayer and working prayer and going to bed in prayer each day with increasing dedication. I must be the best person that I am able to be when I am painting. Tonight the wind is howling and the barrels are full of sky water Picture Quote #1

To me, it’s simple: if you’ve got the time, use it to get ready. What else could you possibly have to do that’s more important? Yes, maybe you’ll learn how to do a few things you’ll never wind up actually needing to do, but that’s a much better problem to have than needing to do something and having no clue where to start Picture Quote #1

Success is feeling good about the work you do throughout the long, unheralded journey that may or may not wind up at the launch pad. You can’t view training solely as a stepping stone to something loftier. It’s got to be an end in itself Picture Quote #1

The first principle of modern cultures may be their connectedness. Culture is like wind and wind knows no boundary or center. Once there is a center, wind becomes a whirlwind Picture Quote #1

Magic birds were dancing in the mystic marsh. The grass swayed with them, and the shallow waters, and the earth fluttered under them. The earth was dancing with the cranes, and the low sun, and the wind and sky Picture Quote #1

The men of wealth who today are trying to prevent the regulation and control of their business in the interest of the public by the proper government authorities will not succeed, in my judgment, in checking the progress of the movement. But if they did succeed they would find that they had sown the wind and would surely reap the whirlwind, for they would ultimately provoke the violent excesses which accompany a reform coming by convulsion instead of by steady and natural growth Picture Quote #1

The snow, the wind, the sun and the sounds of nature, can all be reminders to you that you’re an integral part of the natural world Picture Quote #1

Power is very much like the wind. It comes and goes; no one really owns it. People are foolish enough to think they possess power. You don’t possess power, power possesses you. Power uses you Picture Quote #1

Feel the wind. This wind blows from world to world and from life to death. This is the wind of dharma. Be in love with the wind. It is an intimate lover. It enraptures you. It blows you through eternity Picture Quote #1

When there are enough people on the land to use it but not enough to husband it, then the wildness of the soil that we call fertility begins to diminish, and the soil itself begins to flee from us in water and wind Picture Quote #1

Like a candle in the wind, never knowing who to cling to until the rain set it Picture Quote #1

A story can fly like a bee, so straight and swift you catch only the hum of its passing. Or move so slowly it seems motionless, curled in upon itself like a snake in the sun. It can vanish like smoke before the wind. Linger like perfume in the nose. Change with every telling, yet always remain the same Picture Quote #1

If death is this brilliant slide, this high, fine music felt as pure vibration, this plunging float in wind and silence, it’s not so bad Picture Quote #1

When the year turns, there are bells on the wind. All the old years fall on the ground in lights Picture Quote #1

Your anger was a climate I inhabited like a desert in a dry frigid weather of high thin air and ivory sun, sand dunes the wind lifted into stinging clouds that blinded and choked me where the only ice was in the blood Picture Quote #1

I always think of a voice as an instrument, whether a voice is a trumpet, or violin, or bass. You know what I mean? A horn or wind instrument versus a string instrument. Horn instruments are definitely more toward jazz Picture Quote #1

When the heavens are with you, when the earth is with you, when the sea is with you, when the wind is with you. Who’s going to defeat you after that? Nobody Picture Quote #1

The soul can never be corrupted with the corruption of the body, but it is like the wind which causes the sound of the organ, and which ceases to produce a good effect when a pipe is spoilt Picture Quote #1

For in the voyage of the heart, there is a freight of hatred, and the wind of wrath blows shrill Picture Quote #1

I should like to take the wind and water and sand as a motif and work with them, but it has to be simplified in most cases to colour and force lines, just as music has done with sound Picture Quote #1

As the spiral of modern art history continues to wind down, we can see the increasing demand for tradition in the visual arts Picture Quote #1

When we are dead : it is the living only who cannot be forgiven the living only from whom men’s indulgence and reverence are held off, like the rain by the hard east wind Picture Quote #1

Not only does the wind of accidents stir me according to its blowing, but I am also stirred and troubled by the instability of my attitude Picture Quote #1

Ah, only he who knows where he sails, knows what wind is good, and a fair wind for him Picture Quote #1

Desire’s wind blasts the thorntree but after it becomes from a bramblebush to be a rose upon the rood of time Picture Quote #1

For there is a wind or a ghost of wind in all books echoing the life there, a high wind that fills the tubes of the ear until we think we hear a wind, actual Picture Quote #1

And there grows in the mind a scent, it may be, of locust blossoms whose perfume is itself a wind moving to lead the mind away Picture Quote #1

We are resident inside with the machinery, a glimmering spread throughout the apparatus. We exist with a wind whispering inside and our moon flexing. Amid the ducts, inside the basilica of bones. The flesh is a neighborhood, but not the life Picture Quote #1

Never suffer an exception to occur till the new habit is securely rooted in your life. Each lapse is like the letting fall of a ball of string which one is carefully winding up; a single slip undoes more than a great many turns will wind again Picture Quote #1

If our family was poor, of what did our poverty consist? If our clothes were torn the torn places only let in the sun and wind. In the winter we had no overcoats, but that only meant we ran rather than loitered Picture Quote #1
