Forms and rituals do not produce worship, nor does the disuse of forms and rituals. We can use all the right techniques and methods, we can have the best possible liturgy, but we have not worshiped the Lord until Spirit touches spirit.
Richard J. Foster
Image
Forms of government matter, in my opinion. It matters how -- the nature of the government in which people live.
George W. Bush
Image
Forms disappear, words remain, to signify the impossible.
Augusto Roa Bastos
Image
Forms of government are forged mainly in the fire of practice, not in the vacuum of theory. They respond to national character and to national realities.
George F. Kennan
Image
Forms of expression always appear turgid to those who do not share the emotions they represent.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
Forms of government become established of themselves. They shape themselves, they are not created. We may give them strength and consistency, but we cannot call them into being. Let us rest assured that the form of government can never be a matter of choice: it is almost always a matter of necessity.
Joseph Joubert
Image
Forms in art arise from the impact of idea upon material... so that thinking and belief and attitudes may endure as actual things.

But theater, because of its nature, both text, images, multimedia effects, has a wider base of communication with an audience. That's why I call it the most social of the various art forms.
Wole Soyinka

Education should therefore include the two forms of work, manual and intellectual, for the same person, and thus make it understood by practical experience that these two kinds complete each other and are equally essential to a civilized existence.
Maria Montessori

I'm against Capitol Punishment in all forms, and I have written many pamphlets on this subject in the manner of Swift's Modest Proposal pamphlet incorporated into Naked Lunch these pamphlets have marked Naked Lunch as an obscene book.

It's not that photography recaptures the world you have been in more that it creates a new one: photographs are like Post-It Notes reminding us of the deep architectonic forms of space and thought.
Luke Davies

That millions of people share the same forms of mental pathology does not make these people sane.
Erich Fromm
Image
I'm lazy! I hate work! Hate hard work in all its forms! Clever shortcuts, that's all I'm about!
Eliezer Yudkowsky
Image
I come alive when I have assisted in bringing out the printed word on the stage, you know, and I enjoy directing plays. It's a tactile process, theatre, unlike a number of other forms of the creative work.
Wole Soyinka
Image
Your life has purpose as long as you dedicate it to love. It's not what we do but who we are that forms our biggest contribution.
Marianne Williamson
Image
Why then, O brawling love! O loving hate! O any thing, of nothing first create! O heavy lightness, serious vanity, Misshapen chaos of well-seeming forms, Feather of lead, bright smoke, cold fire, sick health, Still-waking sleep, that is not what it is! This love feel I, that feel no love in this.
William Shakespeare
Image
This is what evolution means--ordered progress development from poorer to richer, from lower to higher, from less to greater--progress. In the material universe, progress to higher forms in the moral universe, progress to higher life.
Lyman Abbott
Image
If we do not suffer a loss all the way to the end, it will wait for us. It won’t just dissipate and disappear. Rather, it will fester, and we will experience its sorrow later, in stranger forms.
Elizabeth Lesser
Image
An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of Democracy
Woodrow Wilson

If you allow your perceptions to be dominated by a status-quo perspective these thought forms create a network of status-quo mental habit patterns.
Marianne Williamson
Image
As love is full of unbefitting strains, All wanton as a child, skipping and vain, Form'd by the eye and therefore, like the eye, Full of strange shapes, of habits and of forms, Varying in subjects as the eye doth roll To every varied object in his glance
William Shakespeare
Image
Society develops wit, but its contemplation alone forms genius.
Madame de Stael
