We are all alone, trapped in these bodies and our own minds, and whatever company we have in this life is only fleeting and superficial.
Jennifer Niven
Image
Learn to respect this sacred moment of birth, as fragile, as fleeting, as elusive as dawn.
Frederick Leboyer
Image
Strictly speaking, you cannot become enlightened, because who you take yourself to be is like a ripple in the ocean of consciousness - or a little wave if you're a VIP - and the ripple doesn't become enlightened until it realizes that its ripple-identity is ultimately a misperception, that it is the ocean taking on a fleeting ripple-form.
Eckhart Tolle
Image
A loving soul was always more beautiful over the long haul, but actual prettiness was fleeting.
Ann Brashares
Image
Life is precious, fragile, fleeting - and Murphy's life was one of my favorites.
Jim Butcher
Image
None of this matters a bit. Yet, of course, it matters at that moment. So we try to be mindful of the moment but it's fleeting.
Frederick Lenz
Image
We flatter those we scarcely know, We please the fleeting guest And deal full many a thoughtless blow, To those who love us best. Laugh, and the world laughs with you Weep, and you weep alone For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth, But has trouble enough of its own. There is new strength, repose of mind, and inspiration in fresh apparel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Age is not so much a feature of your character, as the spot where you stand for a pretty fleeting time on the arc of your life.
Ann Brashares
Image
There are certain days that are forever locked in our memories. They represent special times, places, and people that we capture in the scrapbook of our minds. Just a fleeting thought of these memories can bring us back to that special time and place as well as the emotion we felt when we were there.
Jim Stovall
Image
Thus shall ye think of all this fleeting world: As star at dawn, a bubble in a stream A flash of lightning in a summer cloud A flickering lamp, a phantom, and a dream
Gautama Buddha
Image
I don't really chase trends and fads because they are fleeting.
Eric Benet
Image
They see that who they are is the silence in which sound is happening, the spaciousness in which movement occurs. This kind of recognition, whether fleeting or abiding, is called an awakening.
Arjuna Ardagh
Image
I've always said that fame is fleeting, but anonymity can last a lifetime.
Joe Johnston
Image
This is how to contemplate our conditioned existence in this fleeting world: Like a tiny drop of dew, or a bubble floating in a stream Like a flash of lightning in a summer cloud, Or a flickering lamp, an illusion, a phantom, or a dream. So is all conditioned existence to be seen.
Gautama Buddha
Image
When you're creating you have to descend to depths. You've just got to go there - to the boredom, the banality, the loneliness and all that. Those moments of really feeling in the flow are fleeting.
Errollyn Wallen
Image
If the Fleeting World is but a long dream, it does not matter whether one is young or old.
Bai Juyi
Image
Its a bit mad. Too bad, I mean, that getting to know each just for a fleeting second Must be replaced by unperfect knowledge of the featureless whole Like some pocket history of the world, so general As to constitute a sob or wail
John Ashbery
Image
With me, satisfaction is always very fleeting with our work. I always get a little restless with it.
Geddy Lee
Image
Love is like that, fragile and light. No wonder it rests upon our hearts in intangible moments, bids us follow fleeting thoughts and ideas and pursue our abstract imaginings.
Belinda Peregrin
Image
The thoughts of others Were light and fleeting, Of lovers' meeting Or luck or fame. Mine were of trouble, And mine were steady So I was ready When trouble came.
A. E. Housman
Image
What do you mean by meant? Given the final futility of our struggle, is the fleeting jolt of meaning that art gives us valuable? Or is it the only value passing time as comfortably as possible?
John Green
Image
In each person I catch the fleeting suggestion of something beautiful and swear eternal friendship with that.
George Santayana
Image
In my portraits I try to avoid the fleeting expression and vivacity of a snapshot.
Bill Brandt
Image
It's been a wild ride. I hope people can appreciate how special it is to see the people that ran well today how special and sometimes fleeting greatness can be even from yourself. I gave it everything I had and for a short period of time I did very very well and I'm very proud of that and I'm leaving it at that. I did the best I could.
