Soul Quotes
-
With music, you're really showing someone a piece of your soul. You're saying, 'This is mine. I wrote this, I made this, I'm performing this. This is how I'm presenting it to you.' There's something really scary about that, but there's also something next-worldly about it, too.
Alexandra Shipp
-
I was the life and she was the soul of every party.
Cecelia Ahern

By He in whose Hand is my soul, I have lived amongst people who never ordered food to be prepared for themselves If food was presented to one of them, he would eat, otherwise, he would be silent; and he would not care if it was hot or cold.
Abu Nu`aym

O the mind, mind has mountains; cliffs of fall Frightful, sheer, no-man-fathomed. Hold them cheap May who ne'er hung there. Nor does long our small Durance deal with that steep or deep.
Gerard Manley Hopkins

The reason you have descended into physical life is to unleash the power of your soul upon Earth.

The soul has this proof of divinity: that divine things delight it.
Seneca the Younger
-
There are sacred moments in life when we experience in rational and very direct ways that separation, the boundary between ourselves and other people and between ourselves and Nature, is illusion. Oneness is reality. We can experience that stasis is illusory and that reality is continual flux and change on very subtle and also on gross levels of perception . . . When people bother you in any way, it is because their souls are trying to get your divine attention and your blessing.
Catherine Ponder

In books lies the soul fo the whole past time.
Thomas Carlyle

I think Eros should be dirty. In Greek legend, as I'm sure you are aware, he fell in love with the minor deity Psyche. It was the Greek way of saying that, in spite of what it may believe, Love pursues the Soul, not the body; the Erotic desires the Psychic. If Love was clean and wholesome he wouldn't lust after Psyche.
Stephen Fry

Blessed be those souls who are glad! They are a salve for sorrow and fatigue. A sun in days of darkness, a joy in sorrow, a ray of heaven shining through the uncertainness of earth.
Candace Wheeler

He was a gentle and sensitive soul, and therefore had a short temper, which is why he went straight after everything with an ax.
Bohumil Hrabal
-
But let there be no misunderstanding: it is not that a real man, the object of knowledge, philosophical reflection or technological intervention, has been substituted for the soul, the illusion of theologians. The man described for us, whom we are invited to free, is already in himself the effect of a subjection more profound than himself. A 'soul' inhabits him and brings him to existence, which is itself a factor in the mastery that power exercises over the body. The soul is the effect and instrument of a political anatomy; the soul is the prison of the body.
Michel Foucault
-
We listen, we watch, we learn. We open our hearts and we open our minds, open our souls.
Michael Jackson
-
Hill and valley, seas and constellations, are but stereotypes of divine ideas appealing to and answered by the living soul of man.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin

Sometimes when you're treated unfairly it makes you stronger and more determined. I admire that kind of strength. People who have it take a stand and put their blood and soul into what they believe.
Michael Jackson
