More quotes by Thomas Moore
From plants that wake when others sleep, from timid jasmine buds that keep their odour to themselves all day, but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about.
Thomas Moore
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Thomas Moore
It is precisely because we resist the darkness in ourselves that we miss the depths of the loveliness, beauty, brilliance, creativity, and joy that lie at our core.
Thomas Moore
What's important is finding out what works for you.
Thomas Moore
The problem in narcissism is not the high ideals and ambitions, it's the difficulty one encounters when trying to give them body.
Thomas Moore
Though an angel should write, still 'tis devils must print.
Thomas Moore
Most, if not all, problems brought to therapists are issues of love. It makes sense that the cure is also love.
Thomas Moore
How many times do we lose an occasion for soul work by leaping ahead to final solutions without pausing to savor the undertones? We are a radically bottom-line society, eager to act and to end tension, and thus we lose opportunities to know ourselves for our motives and our secrets.
Thomas Moore
The heart that has truly loved never forgets, But as truly loves on to the close.
Thomas Moore
A genuine odyssey is not about piling up experiences. It is a deeply felt, risky, unpredictable tour of the soul.
Thomas Moore
You may break, you may shatter the vase, if you will, But the scent of the roses will hang round it still.
Thomas Moore
Disappointments in love, even betrayals and losses, serve the soul at the very moment they seem in life to be tragedies. The soul is partly in time and partly in eternity. We might remember the part that resides in eternity when we feel despair over the part that is in life.
Thomas Moore
The many great gardens of the world, of literature and poetry, of painting and music, of religion and architecture, all make the point as clear as possible: The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden. If you don't want paradise, you are not human and if you are not human, you don't have a soul.
Thomas Moore
Humility, that low, sweet root, from which all heavenly virtues shoot.
Thomas Moore
It is only through mystery and madness that the soul is revealed.
Thomas Moore
Silence is not an absence of sound but rather a shifting of attention toward sounds that speak to the soul.
Thomas Moore
The devil...the prowde spirite...cannot endure to be mocked.
Thomas Moore
T'is the last rose of summer, Left blooming alone.
Thomas Moore
The key to seeing the world's soul, and in the process wakening our own, is to get over the confusion by which we think that fact is real and imagination is illusion.
Thomas Moore
Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.
Thomas Moore
