Condition Quotes
-
In bed by herself: adorable condition.
Elizabeth von Arnim

I don't hold with shamans, witch doctors, or psychiatrists. Shakespeare, Tolstoy, or even Dickens, understood more about the human condition than ever occurred to any of you. You overrated bunch of charlatans deal with the grammar of human problems, and the writers I've mentioned with the essence.
Mordecai Richler

It's a basic truth of the human condition that everybody lies. The only variable is about what. The weird thing about telling someone they're dying is it tends to focus their priorities. You find out what matters to them. What they're willing to die for... What they're willing to lie for.
David Shore

During misfortunes, nothing aggravates our condition more, than to be esteemed deserving of them.
Norm MacDonald

We kid ourselves that we're trying to be empathetic with the human condition from a distance, but I don't think that is it at all. It's stupid; it's a waste of time. But when the earth flexes its muscles, that's rather different. That's a powerful reminder of where we are.
Simon Winchester

Power is tolerable only on condition that it mask a substantial part of itself. Its success is proportional to its ability to hide its own mechanisms.
Michel Foucault

Whatever may be our condition in life, it is better to lay hold of its advantages than to count its evils.
Edwin Hubbell Chapin
-
By slow, thoughtful watching, you can gain much, as against working up a wild, panicky condition.
Ernest Vincent Wright

We have been adopted as sons by the Lord with this one condition; that our life expresses Christ, the bond of our adoption. Accordingly, unless we give and devote ourselves to righteousness, we not only revolt from our Creator with wicked perfidy, but we also abjure our Savior Himself.
John Calvin
-
Blessing: Constructive thought directed toward anyone or condition. You bless a man when you recognize the divinity in him.
Ernest Holmes
-
It was an all-white church. It was starting to decline. They had to hire a new pastor, and they hired him. But he came under the condition that "I want and I'm called to make this a multiethnic church." So they knew. He's interesting because he's part-Asian, part-white. He's married to a Hispanic woman, so that's their family and that's their vision.
Michael Emerson
