The first and most important thing an individual can do is to become an individual again, decontrol himself, train himself as to what is going on and win back as much independent ground for himself as possible
William S. Burroughs
Image
You are a fountain of the sun's light. I am a willow shadow on the ground. You make my raggedness silky.
Rumi
Image
The first plane ride was in a homemade glider my buddy and I built. Unfortunately we didn't get more than four feet off the ground, because it crashed.
Alan Shepard
Image
There's a rule saying I have to ground anyone who's crazy ... There's a catch. Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat duty isn't really crazy.
Joseph Heller
Image
Now would I give a thousand furlongs of sea for an acre of barren ground.
William Shakespeare

The zone is a place that you rarely visit. It's not some place you go every week. The zone is sacred ground.
Joe Greene

I don't really have any great interest in writing for movies. Comics, to me, is a much more promising field. There's still a lot of ground to be broken in comics, whereas movies, to a degree... I don't know. They're a wonderful art form, but they're not my favorite art form. They might not even be in the top five of my favorite art forms.
Alan Moore

So are you to my thoughts as food to life, or as sweet seasoned showers are to the ground.
William Shakespeare
Image
Life is a lot more interesting if you are interested in the people and the places around you. So, illuminate your little patch of ground, the people that you know, the things that you want to commemorate. Light them up with your art, with your music, with your writing, with whatever it is that you do.
Alan Moore
Image
I don't think you can separate a place from its history. I think a place is much more than the bricks and mortar that go into its construction. I think it's more than the accidental topography of the ground it stands on.
Alan Moore
Image
With a background in science I am extremely interested in the meeting ground of science, theology, and philosophy, especially the ethical questions at the border of science and theology.
Alan Lightman
Image
I'm opposed to any sport that reduces the coefficient of friction between me and the ground.
Alan Kotok
Image
I have a soul of lead So stakes me to the ground I cannot move.
William Shakespeare

The weakest kind of fruit drops earliest to the ground.
William Shakespeare

Use pain as a stepping stone, not a camp ground.
Alan Cohen

Science is an excellent piece of furniture to have in the second story, providing that you have common sense on the ground floor.
Alan Chadwick
Image
Were we closer to the ground as children, or is the grass emptier now?
Alan Bennett
Image
Our greatest furies spring from events which violate our sense of the ground of our existence.
Alain de Botton
Image
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground, and tell sad stories of the death of kings... All murdered for within the hollow crown that rounds the mortal temples of a king, keeps Death his court... and with a little pin bores through his castle wall, and farewell king!
William Shakespeare
Image
For the entire state of Georgia, having the premiere of Gone With the Wind on home ground was like winning the Battle of Atlanta 75 years late.
Anne Edwards
Image
Most illnesses do not, as is generally thought, come like a bolt out of the blue. The ground is prepared for years through faulty diet, intemperance, overwork, and moral conflicts, slowly eroding the subject's vitality.
Paul Tournier
Image
Men who pride themselves on their ancestry are like the potato plant, the most part of which is under ground.
William Tyler

It certainly is gravy every day above ground right now, after kicking that heroin habit. I've been given a second chance in life, and I don't want to let a minute go by without enjoying it.
Al Jourgensen
Image
To the solid ground Of nature trusts the Mind that builds for aye.
William Wordsworth
