Spirit Quotes
-
The sacred thread and the tuft of hair without a pure heart and a spirit of toleration do not make a Hindu.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
It is not whether your words or actions are tough or gentle; it is the spirit behind your actions and words that announces your inner state.
Chin-Ning Chu
-
In order to be able thus to misjudge, and thus to grant left-handed veneration to our classics, people must have ceased to know them. This, generally speaking, is precisely what has happened. For, otherwise, one ought to know that there is only one way of honoring them, and that is to continue seeking with the same spirit and with the same courage, and not to weary of the search.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
They say they don't understand me. And how could they? I don't understand myself. I mean, is this really me? Or is this just a dream? Maybe I'm merely a spirit floating through ether... and that's why I feel so empty.
Bisco Hatori
-
But he who is hated by the people, as the wolf by the dogs - is the free spirit, the enemy of fetters, the non-adorer, the dweller in the woods.
Friedrich Nietzsche
-
The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone who thinks and feels with us, and who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
-
No nation has been able to establish itself, as a nation in Palestine up to this
day, no national union and no national spirit have prevailed there. The motley,
impoverished tribes which have occupied it have held it as mere tenants at will,
temporary landowners, evidently waiting for those entitled to the permanent
possession of the soil.
John W. Dawson
-
Homelessness is the actor's fate; physical incapacity to attain what is most required and desired by such a spirit as I am a slave to.
Edwin Booth
-
If that vital spark that we find in a grain of wheat can pass unchanged through countless deaths and resurrections, will the spirit of man be unable to pass from this body to another?
William Jennings Bryan
-
Dance, like music, is the expression of the human spirit. Dance is 'visual music'.
S. Janaki
-
If someone who wanted to learn to dance were to say: For centuries, one generation after the other has learned the positions, and it is high time that I take advantage of this and promptly begin with the quadrille--people would presumably laugh a little at him, but in the world of spirit this is very plausible. What, then, is education? I believed it is the course the individual goes through in order to catch up with himself, and the person who will not go through this course is not much helped by being born in the most enlightened age.
Soren Kierkegaard
-
The Spirit is the first power we practically experience, but the last power we come to understand.
Oswald Chambers
