Stream Quotes
Whether it is good or evil, whether life in itself is pain or pleasure, whether it is uncertain-that it may perhaps be this is not important-but the unity of the world, the coherence of all events, the embracing of the big and the small from the same stream, from the same law of cause, of becoming and dying.
Hermann Hesse
I think that will be a lot of fun for audiences to get the same stream of consciousness that was going through my head at the time. It was very exciting to suddenly recall what I was feeling at the time.
Roland Joffe
No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed. No stream or gas drives anything until it is confined. No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined.
Harry Emerson Fosdick
Thou art gone from my gaze like a beautiful dream,
And I seek thee in vain by the meadow and stream.
George Linley
The jet stream is the controlling influence over the world's weather systems.
Michael Fish
The truth is, going against the internal stream of ignorance is way more rebellious than trying to start some sort of cultural revolution.
Noah Levine
The habit some writers indulge in of perpetual quotation is one it behooves lovers of good literature to protest against, for it is an insidious habit which in the end must cloud the stream of thought, or at least check spontaneity. If it be true that le style c'est l homme, what is likely to happen if l homme is for ever eking out his own personality with that of some other individual?
Ethel Smyth
O sacred solitude! divine retreat!
Choice of the prudent! envy of the great,
By thy pure stream, or in thy waving shade,
We court fair wisdom, that celestial maid.
Edward Joseph Young
This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world:
Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream;
Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud,
Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream.
So is all conditioned existence to be seen.
Gautama Buddha
As you walk, you cut open and create that river bed into which the stream of your descendants shall enter and flow.
Nikos Kazantzakis
It is a very good quality in a man to have a trout-stream.
George Eliot
The stream is always purer at its source.
[Fr., Les choses valent toujours mieux dans leur source.]
Blaise Pascal
