For, as I think I have said, I can only meditate when I am walking. When I stop I cease to think my mind only works with my legs.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Image
I think I should get a bigger between-the-song persona, so then I'm not wandering around the stage like some mad old auntie that's saying hello to people and falling over.
Florence Welch
Image
The battle of prayer is against two things in the earthlies: wandering thoughts and lack of intimacy with God's character as revealed in His word. Neither can be cured at once, but they can be cured by discipline.
Oswald Chambers
Image
I don't read music. I don't write it. So I wander around on the guitar until something starts to present itself.
James Taylor
Image
Winds are advertisements of all they touch, however much or little we may be able to read them telling their wanderings even by their scents alone.
John Muir
Image
We have seen from experience that, if we are in the habit of walking regularly on the same road, we are able to think about other things while walking, without paying attention to our steps.
Vinoba Bhave
Image
Walking is a virtue, tourism is a deadly sin.
Bruce Chatwin
Image
Improper parental example in the home is a leading cause of the wandering of youth.
Nathan Eldon Tanner
Image
There is only one search: wandering... no dogma and no heresy.
Rumi
Image
How now, wit! Whither wander you?
William Shakespeare
Image
Could you have seen that mother clinging to her child, when they fastened the irons upon his wrists could you have heard her heart-rending groans, and seen her bloodshot eyes wander wildly from face to face, vainly pleading for mercy could you have witnessed that scene as I saw it, you would exclaim, Slavery is damnable!
Harriet Ann Jacobs
Image
Thoughts are like stars in the firmament some are fixed, others like the wandering planets, others again are only like meteors. Understanding is like the Sun, which gives light to all the thoughts. Memory is like the Moon, it hath its new, its full and its wane.
Margaret Cavendish
Image
She always had that about her, that look of otherness, of eyes that see things much too far, and of thoughts that wander off the edge of the world.
Joanne Harris
Image
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Image
Sometimes my mind wanders other times it leaves completely.
Daniel Tosh
Image
Sometimes I think Texas exists as a reality check for those who might wander too far toward the precious.
Molly Ivins
Image
Here I am, just wandering down a deserted street in the middle of the night. I hope I don't run into any trouble. Goodness, that would just ruin my whole evening. I strolled and hummed, trying to project Innocent Victim.
MaryJanice Davidson
Image
It is painful to be consciously of two worlds. The Wandering Jew in me seeks forgetfulness. I am not afraid to live on and on, if only I do not have to remember too much. A long past vividly remembered is like a heavy garment that clings to your limbs when you would run.
Mary Antin
Image
The fight for free space-for wilderness and for public space-must be accompanied by a fight for free time to spend wandering in that space. Otherwise the individual imagination will be bulldozed over for the chain-store outlets of consumer appetite, true-crime titillations, and celebrity crises.
Rebecca Solnit
Image
A male has the right to wander about as he pleases. He has the right to marry any number of girls. This practice has led to prostitution.
Periyar E. V. Ramasamy
Image
Paradise is the here and now, the actual, tangible, dogmatically real Earth on which we stand. Yes, God bless America, the Earth upon which we stand.
Edward Abbey
Image
No one would think of bringing a dog into church. For though a dog is all very well on a gravel path, and shows no disrespect to flowers, the way he wanders down an aisle, looking, lifting a paw, and approaching a pillar with a purpose that makes the blood run cold with horror ... a dog destroys the service completely.
Virginia Woolf
Image
More than half a century has passed, and yet each spring, when I wander into the primrose wood, I see the pale yellow blooms and smell their sweetest scent - for a moment I am seven years old again and wandering in that fragrant wood.
Gertrude Jekyll
Image
But mainly I learned, in approaching the measurement of new phenomena, not just to consider using existing apparatus but to allow the mind to wander freely and invent new ways of doing the job.
