Comedy is a socially acceptable form of hostility and aggression. That is what comics do, stand the world upside down (Wo Quotes)
Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain (Wo Quotes)
The scientist has marched in and taken the place of the poet. But one day somebody will find the solution to the problems of the world and remember, it will be a poet, not a scientist (Wo Quotes)
Architecture is life, or at least it is life itself taking form and therefore it is the truest record of life as it was lived in the world yesterday, as it is lived today or ever will be lived (Wo Quotes)
New York is the biggest mouth in the world. It appears to be prime example of the herd instinct, leading the universal urban conspiracy to beguile man from his birthright (the good ground), to hang him by his eyebrows from skyhooks above hard pavement, to crucify him, sell him, or be sold by him (Wo Quotes)
I find it hard to believe that the machine would go into the creative artist's hand even were that magic hand in true place. It has been too far exploited by industrialism and science at expense to art and true religion (Wo Quotes)
I wouldn't mind seeing opera die. Ever since I was a boy, I regarded opera as a ponderous anachronism, almost the equivalent of smoking (Wo Quotes)
There ain't any news in being good. You might write the doings of all the convents of the world on the back of a postage stamp, and have room to spare (Wo Quotes)
If Christian scientists had more science and doctors more Christianity, it wouldn't make any difference which you called in - if you had a good nurse (Wo Quotes)
A blessed thing it is for any man or woman to have a friend, one human soul whom we can trust utterly, who knows the best and worst of us, and who loves us in spite of all our faults (Wo Quotes)
Being forced to work, and forced to do your best, will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle will never know (Wo Quotes)
There are two freedoms - the false, where a man is free to do what he likes; the true, where he is free to do what he ought (Wo Quotes)
The world goes up and the world goes down, the sunshine follows the rain; and yesterday's sneer and yesterday's frown can never come over again (Wo Quotes)
See the land, her easter keeping, rises as her maker rose; seeds so long in darkness sleeping burst at last from winter snows. Earth with heaven above rejoices; fields and garlands hail the spring; shaughs and woodlands ring with voices while the wild birds build and sing (Wo Quotes)
Except a living man there is nothing more wonderful than a book! A message to us from the dead, - from human souls whom we never saw, who lived perhaps thousands of miles away; and yet these, on those little sheets of paper, speak to us, teach us, comfort us, open their hearts to us as brothers (Wo Quotes)
Thank God every morning when you get up, that you have something to do that day which must be done, whether you like it or not. Being forced to work and forced to do your best will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle never know (Wo Quotes)
For men must work, and women must weep, and there's little to earn, and many to keep, though the harbor bar be moaning (Wo Quotes)
Tell us not that the world is governed by universal law; the news is not comfortable, but simply horrible, unless you can tell us, or allow others to tell us, that there is a loving giver, and a just administrator of that law (Wo Quotes)
When all the world is young, lad, and all the trees are green; and every goose a swan, lad, and every lass a queen; then hey for boot and horse, lad, and round the world away; young blood must have its course, lad, and every dog his day (Wo Quotes)
There is something very wonderful about music. Words are wonderful enough; but music is even more wonderful. It speaks not to our thoughts as words do; it speaks through our hearts and spirits, to the very core and root of our souls. Music soothes us, stirs us up, it puts noble feelings in us, it can make us cringe; and it can melt us to tears; and yet we have no idea how. It is a language by itself, just as perfect in its ways as speech, as words, just as divine, just as blessed (Wo Quotes)
Except a living man there is nothing more wonderful than a book! A message to us from the dead - from human souls we never saw, who lived, perhaps, thousands of miles away. And yet these, in those little sheets of paper, speak to us, arouse us, terrify us, teach us, comfort us, open their hearts to us as brothers (Wo Quotes)
Three fishers went sailing away to the west, away to the west as the sun went down; each thought on the woman who loved him the best, and the children stood watching them out of the town (Wo Quotes)
Do not fancy, as too many do, that thou canst praise God by singing hymns to him in church once a week, and disobeying him all the week long. He asks of thee works as well as words; and more, he asks of thee works first and words after (Wo Quotes)
Take comfort, and recollect however little you and I may know, God knows; he knows himself and you and me and all things; and his mercy is over all his works (Wo Quotes)
Grandeur... Consists in form, and not in size: and to the eye of the philosopher, the curve drawn on a paper two inches long, is just as magnificent, just as symbolic of divine mysteries and melodies, as when embodied in the span of some cathedral roof (Wo Quotes)
Oh! That we two were maying down the stream of the soft spring breeze; like children with violets playing, in the shade of the whispering trees (Wo Quotes)
This is eternal life; a life of everlasting love, showing itself in everlasting good works; and whosoever lives that life, he lives the life of God, and hath eternal life (Wo Quotes)
Clearly older women and especially older women who have led an active life or elder women who successfully maneuver through their own family life have so much to teach us about sharing, patience, and wisdom (Wo Quotes)
In my work and in myself I reflect black people, women and men, as I reflect others. One day even the most self-protective ones will look into the mirror I provide and not be afraid (Wo Quotes)
It's so clear that you have to cherish everyone. I think that's what I get from these older black women, that every soul is to be cherished, that every flower is to bloom (Wo Quotes)
