The glory of His Father which our Lord sought above all else on earth is still the object of all His desires in the Blessed Sacrament. It is safe to say that Jesus Christ has clothed Himself with the sacramental state in order to continue honoring and glorifying His Father.
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Theology is a subject without an object
Dan Barker
Image
It is known that the taste--whatever it is--is improved exactly as we improve our judgment, by extending our knowledge, by a steady attention to our object, and by frequent exercise.
Edmund Burke
Image
I think our civilization is minimal enough without underlining it. Sculpture as a created object in space should enrich, not reflect, and should be beautiful. Beauty is its function.
Barbara Chase-Riboud
Image
When objects shattered into fragments appeared in my painting about 1909, this for me was a way of getting closest to the object... Fragmentation helped me to establish space and movement in space.
Georges Braque
Image
When Hume insists that taste is a matter of delicacy, that it is a matter of having a sensitivity to features of an object itself, he is very close to the rationalist doctrine. Hume was really a covert objectivist (or partial one) about aesthetic pleasure because that pleasure had to be based on the sensitivity to features in the object.
Frederick C. Beiser
Image
But from the good health of the mind comes that which is dear to all and the object of prayer-happiness.
Aeschylus
Image
Transfer the point of concentration to some object outside of yourself - another person, a puzzle, a broken plate that you are gluing.
Sanford Meisner
Image
She was nothing more than a mere good-tempered, civil and obliging Young Woman as such we could scarcely dislike her -- she was only an Object of Contempt
Jane Austen
Image
The salvation of birds and beasts, oneself included - this is the object of Shakyamuni's religious austerities.
Ikkyu
Image
In industrialized warfare, where the representation of events outstripped the presentation of facts, the image was starting to gain sway over the object, time over space. Soon a conflict of strategic and political interpretation would ensue, with radio and then radar completing the picture.
Paul Virilio
Image
What you want will pull like a magnet. Here's the other part. What for? Purpose is stronger than object. It's the 'What for?' that's even more powerful than the object. And the more you can describe in detail to stir the emotion and the intellect and the spirit and the soul, then the more powerful the 'what for' is.
Jim Rohn
Image
We live increasingly in a system in which little direct attention is paid to the object, the function, the program, the task, the need but immense attention to the role, the procedure, prestige, and profit.
Paul Goodman
Image
I find it ridiculous to assign a gender to an inanimate object incapable of disrobing and making an occasional fool of itself.
David Sedaris
Image
A piece of jewelry is in a sense an object that is not complete in itself. Jewelry is a ‘what is it?’ until you relate it to the body. The body is a component in design just as air and space are. Like line, form, and color, the body is a material to work with. It is one of the basic inspirations in creating form.
Art Smith
Image
Pride, like the magnet, constantly points to one object, self but, unlike the magnet, it has no attractive pole, but at all points repels.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
The poorest being that crawls on earth, contending to save itself from injustice and oppression, is an object respectable in the eyes of God and man.
Edmund Burke
Image
An old man at school is a contemptible and ridiculous object.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Batteries are the most dramatic object. Other things stop working or they break, But Batteries... They Die.
Demetri Martin
Image
The object of government is the welfare of the people.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
When object of our anxiety is God, then that brings ecstacy.
Radhanath Swami
Image
The war is waged against its own subjects and its object is not the victory...but to keep the very structure of society intact.
George Orwell
Image
No design works unless it embodies ideas that are held common by the people for whom the object is intended.
Adrian Forty
Image
The object of powder is powder.
George Orwell
