Soul Quotes
-
He was the only person I ever met whose soul I could clearly see in his eyes. And I had more faith in him than I've ever had in another human being.
Beth Harbison
-
your soul needs to be lonely so that its strangest elements can moil about, curl and growl and jump, fail and get triumphant, all inside you. Sociable people have the most trouble hearing their unconscious. They have trouble getting rid of clichés because clichés are sociable.
Carol Bly
-
He is fairer than the morning star, and whiter than the moon. For his body I would give my soul, and for his love I would surrender heaven.
Oscar Wilde
-
My wails of sorrow are tormenting my soul
Rumi
-
The choice of souls was in most cases based on their own experience of a previous life... Knowledge easily acquired is that which the enduing self had in an earlier life, so that it flows back easily.
Plato
-
At the outset do not be worried about this big question-Truth. It is a very simple matter if each one of you starts with the desire to get as much as possible. No human being is constituted to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth; and even the best of men must be content with fragments, with partial glimpses, never the full fruition. In this unsatisfied quest the attitude of mind, the desire, the thirst-a thirst that from the soul must arise!-the fervent longing, are the be-all and the end-all.
William Osler
-
Although there exist in the world today some microbes of the soul, such as discrimination and aggression, science was and still is the core of progress for humanity and the continuity of civilization.
Ahmed Zewail
-
Leave those vain moralists, my friend, and return to the depth of your soul: that is where you will always rediscover the source of the sacred fire which so often inflamed us with love of the sublime virtues; that is where you will see the eternal image of true beauty, the contemplation of which inspires us with a holy enthusiasm.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
-
Musically, I try not to box things in. I try to just play around this spectrum of influences: soul, jazz, and hip-hop.
Andra Day
-
To be a student required a peculiar kind of capitulation, a willingness not simply to do as one is told, but to surrendor the movements of one's soul to the unknown complexities of another's. A willingness, not simply to be moved, but to be remade.
Richard Scott Bakker
-
Bitterness kills the soul.
Anthony Ray Hinton
-
The greater perfection a soul aspires after, the more dependent it is upon Divine Grace.
Brother Lawrence
