Cessation of work is not accompanied by cessation of expenses
Cato the Elder
Image
Cessation of struggle is like free falling through space without a care in the world.
Adyashanti
Image
If it turns out that physical death truly results in the absolute cessation of consciousness, then it would seem to me that in the grand truth of things, every human who has ever lived, who has not committed every minute of their lives toward an effort in finding a cure for mortality, has died as an utter and miserable failure.
Derek R. Audette
Image
Death--some form of termination--is the universal ending of all living things but only man, by virtue of his verbally reportable introspective life, can conceptualize his own cessation.
Edwin S. Shneidman
Image
For notwithstanding this rest and cessation from labor which is required on the Lord's day, yet three sorts of works may and ought to be performed. . . . these are works of piety, works of necessity, and works of charity.
Ezekiel Hopkins
Image
It came to me that I should teach this truth for it is real happiness and joy. The cessation of suffering is possible.
Gautama Buddha
Image
The expansion of tobacco cessation centers is an important part of our historic and continuing effort to help smokers quit. The expansion of these centers will give even more New Yorkers the help they need to quit once and for all.
George Pataki
Image
There comes a pause, for human strength will not endure to dance without cessation and everyone must reach the point at length of absolute prostration.
Lewis Carroll
Image
The sanyasa of the Gita will not tolerate complete cessation of activity.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
Happiness is the cessation of suffering. Well-being.
Nhat Hanh
Image
From joy people are born for joy they live in joy they melt at death. Death is an ecstasy, for it removes the burden of the body and frees the soul of all pain springing from body identification. It is the cessation of pain and sorrow.
Paramahansa Yogananda
Image
The third noble truth says that the cessation of suffering is letting go of holding on to ourselves.
Pema Chodron
Image
Misery is caused for the most part, not by a heavy crush of disaster, but by the corrosion of less visible evils, which canker enjoyment, and undermine security. The visit of an invader is necessarily rare, but domestic animosities allow no cessation.
Samuel Johnson
Image
It is not the nature of avarice to be satisfied with anything but money. Every passion that acts upon mankind has a peculiar mode of operation. Many of them are temporary and fluctuating they admit of cessation and variety. But avarice is a fixed, uniform passion.
Thomas Paine
Image
For I never have seen, and never shall see, that the cessation of the evidence of existence is necessarily evidence of the cessation of existence.
William De Morgan
Image
Peace cannot be achieved except after the cessation of military escalation and the economic and financial siege.
Yasser Arafat
Image
If, as we decided in Munich, there will be a cessation of hostilities and humanitarian assistance can flow into Syria - then this will open the door for the beginning of the political transition process.
Adel al-Jubeir
Image
I believe that the United States is not genuine regarding having a cessation of violence in Syria.
Bashar al-Assad
Image
Creativity is the sudden cessation of stupidity.
Edwin Land
Image
The only basis of peace is the cessation of the conflict of two wills: my will vs God’s.
Elisabeth Elliot
Image
The gift of the Truth beats all other gifts. The flavour of the Truth beats all other tastes. The joy of the Truth beats all other joys, and the cessation of desire conquers all suffering
Gautama Buddha
Image
It is within this fathoms-long carcass, with its mind and its notions, that I declare there is the world, the origin of the world, the cessation of the world and the path leading to the cessation of the world.
Gautama Buddha
Image
What do you mean, Araluen? Death? Halt made a careless gesture. The usual, I suppose: the sudden cessation of life. The end of it all. Departure for a happier place. Or oblivion, depending upon your personal beliefs.
John Flanagan
Image
[T]he normal and the everyday are often amazingly unstoppable, and what is unimaginable is the cessation of them. The world is resilient, and, no matter what interruptions occur, people so badly want to return to their lives and get on with them. A veneer of civilization descends quickly, like a shining rain. Dust is settled.
