Boredom slays more of existence than war.
Norman Mailer
Image
If the red slayer think he slays, Or if the slain think he is slain, They know not well the subtle ways, I keep and pass and turn again.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Clear communication between selves - the surface self and the deep self - is the enemy of self-doubt. It slays confusion.
Stephen King
Image
The cross where Jesus died became also the cross where His apostle died. The loss, the rejection, the shame, belong both to Christ and to all who in very truth are His. the cross that saves them also slays them, and anything short of this is a pseudo-faith and not true faith at all.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Image
There's no weapon that slays its victim so surely (if well aimed) as praise.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
Image
Jealousy, that dragon which slays love under the pretence of keeping it alive.
Havelock Ellis
Image
Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
Every movement that slays its gods creates new ones, of course. I loathe talk of the sixties and seventies being a 'Greatest Generation' of artists, but if we're going to use such idiotic appellations, let this one also be applied to the artists, curators, and gallerists who emerged in the first half of the nineties.
Jerry Saltz
Image
The war between being and nothingness is the underlying illness of the twentieth century. Boredom slays more of existence than war.
Norman Mailer
Image
A month of days, a year of months, 20 years of months in the treadmill, is the life that slays everything worthy of the name of life.
Roy Bedichek
Image
Wealthy the spirit that knows its own flight. Stealthy the hunter who slays his own fright. Blessed the traveler who journeys the length of the light
Dan Fogelberg
Image
Purity is not imposed upon us as though it were a kind of punishment, it is one of those mysterious but obvious conditions of that supernatural knowledge of ourselves in the Divine, which we speak of as faith. Impurity does not destroy this knowledge, it slays our need for it.
Georges Bernanos
Image
I only found out about Eminem getting on the track like a month ago. As if the song couldn't get any better. He just slays me, he's such a genius.
Hayley Williams
Image
This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers Gnaws iron, bites steel Grinds hard stones to meal Slays king, ruins town, And beats high mountain down.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Image
The most savage and voracious animal never kills to increase his wealth, or open a way to grandeur. It slays to satisfy his hunger, or in a natural defense of his own life, or of those whom he is prompted by instinct to preserve.
