I just -- I know my own heart and I love you, Turner. And if you have even the tiniest shred of decency, you'll say something because I've said everything I possibly can, and I can't bear the silence, and -- oh for heaven's sake! Will you at least blink? He couldn't even manage that.
Julia Quinn
Image
It is when we act freely, for the sake of the action itself rather than for ulterior motives, that we learn to become more than what we were.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Image
The thing is...what they don't tell you about forgiveness is this-you don't give it for the other person's sake, but your own.
Alexandra Bracken
Image
O let us still the secret joy partake, To follow virtue even for virtue's sake.
Alexander Pope
Image
To observations which ourselves we make, we grow more partial for th' observer's sake.
Alexander Pope
Image
Have interesting failures.... If you need to have a personal crisis have it now. Don't wait until midlife, when it will take longer to resolve.... Don't pity yourselves. Lighten up. Seek people with a sense of humor. Avoid humorless people-and do not marry one, for God's sake.
Garrison Keillor

The spirit of submission is choosing His way over ours for His sake.
K.P. Yohannan

It is only the inexperienced and thoughtless who find pleasure in killing fish for the mere sake of killing them. No sportsman does this.

My advice is this. For Christ's sake, don't write a book that is suitable for a kid of 12 years old, because the kids who read who are 12 years old are reading books for adults. I read all of the James Bond books when I was about 11, which was approximately the right time to read James Bond books.
Terry Pratchett

Art for art's sake, and creation for creation's sake, and love for love's sake
Rajneesh

Thanksgiving-day, I fear, If one the solemn truth must touch, Is celebrated, not so much To thank the Lord for blessing o'er, As for the sake of getting more!
Will Carleton

What would it matter if, for the sake of the Christian Church, one were to tell a big lie?
Martin Luther
Image
I've gotten balanced coverage and broad coverage - all we could have asked. ... For heaven sakes, we kid about the liberal media, but every republican on earth does that.
Pat Buchanan

People do not seem to talk for the sake of expressing their opinions, but to maintain an opinion for the sake of talking.
William Hazlitt
Image
Where beauty is worshipped for beauty's sake as a goddess, independent of and superior to morality and philosophy, the most horrible putrefaction is apt to set in. The lives of the aesthetes are the far from edifying commentary on the religion of beauty.
Aldous Huxley
Image
No Romeo-and-Juliet acts, no nonsense about Love with a large L, none of that popular song claptrap with its skies of blue, dreams come true, heaven with you. Just sensuality for its own sake.
Aldous Huxley
Image
Happy is the man who has acquired the love of walking for its own sake!
William Jacob Holland
Image
My thinking is first and last and always for the sake of my doing, and I can only do one thing at a time.
William James
Image
From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we are here for the sake of each other.
Albert Einstein
Image
During the course of our life we now and then enjoy some pleasures so inviting, and have some encounters of so tender a nature, that though they are forbidden, it is but natural to wish that they were at least allowable. Nothing can be more delightful, except it be to abandon them for virtue's sake.
Jean de la Bruyere
Image
We are here for the sake of others
Albert Einstein
Image
You may hang your walls with tapestry insread of whitewash or paper or you may cover them with mosaic or have them frescoed by a great painter: all this is not luxury, if it be done for beauty's sake, and not for show: it does not break our golden rule: Have nothing in your houses which you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.
William Morris
Image
He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end.
William Penn
Image
O Eternal God, now may it please you to burn in love so that we become the limbs fashioned in the love you felt when you begot your Son at the first dawn before all creation. And consider this need which falls upon us, take it from us for the sake of your Son, and lead us to the joy of your salvation.
Hildegard of Bingen
